Galactic Traditions
Inspired by the work of Birdy ( Plentiful Traditions ) and tooled around the idea of having a tradition tree for each of the ascension types.

- Gaia – Biological Ascension
- Psionics – Psionic Ascension
The other tradition trees are as follows:
- Voidcraft – Locked to Master Builders
- Exploration
