List of extramicrasian contacts

To the grief and consternation of many, to nothing of the strain placed upon the credulity of many others aside, the planet of Micras has been obliged to play host to numerous entities over the centuries claiming to be the representatives of powers inhabiting worlds located outside of the Atos system. Whilst the majority of these extramicrasian interlocutors have been human in origin, more or less, a distressing number have manifested in forms that are fundamentally alien in their very nature - indeed it is these abominations, such as the safir, that have given rise to concerns about the status of Humanity in the wider galaxy, and fuelled the rise of the Humanist Movement on Micras.

The list of extramicrasian contacts is maintained by the Defence Against Anomalous Phenomena of the Raspur Pact, and this perspective should be taken into account when perusing the entries.

List of extramicrasian contacts

Contacting party	Year contact established	Contact status	Dominant species	Home world	Home system	Means of contact	Notes
Grand Commonwealth et al	1519 AN	Lapsed after 1555 AN	Human	Giess	Unknown	Portal (Hurmu Gate)	What was originally a colonisation attempt on Giess by formerly Micrasian human powers, spearheaded by the Grand Commonwealth, became an attempt to supplant Micras that ultimately failed owing to an overreliance upon the Hurmu Gate.
Elwynn (Shireroth)	1551 AN	Lapsed after 1553 AN	Ohl'tar	Unknown	Unknown	TBA	An arachnid-like extramicras species suddenly made contact with the ducal authorities of Elwynn in 1551, caused a massacre in Alumelith the same year, and were then erradicated by the Elwynnese authorities by 1553. Very little knowledge of them is known. Potentially not an extramicrasian species but rather a progenitor of the Deep Singers emanating from the chthonic strata of Micras' prehistory. The completeness of their destruction on the orders of the Khan of Vijayanagara has made further investigations impracticable at the present.
Safir Alliance	1562 AN	Ongoing	safir	Daia	Unknown	Interstellar "faster-than-light" vessels	Safir Alliance colonisation efforts on Micras failed by 1582 AN. Infamously three safir Kaisers of Shireroth: Rei (1577–1579), Semisa II (1608), and Daniel III (1624–1629). Residual population found in the Natopian demesne of the Principality of Whales, with the second-largest group of safir living in Opaeghia (also a Natopian demesne).
Hoenn	1607 AN 1632 AN	Lapsed by 1680 AN	Human	Terra	Sol	Portal	Possible ancestral homeworld of Humanity. Something about off-brand pokemon. Jingdaoese incursion (1607 AN) resulted in the occupation of Sweden, which may be ongoing.
Insulia	1689 AN	Ongoing	Human	Pollin	Aurian	Unknown	Sledded polacks.
