@npub1trd…ussx Also avoid the She who must not be named trope of requiring bloodline for mystic powers. It would be amusing to have a wizard who is good at the job because he isn't high born and hence had to actually study.

So you're escaping from Sol in a 100kton ship on a 10ky one way trip to a new star system that has no life.
Which critters do you pack for the journey into your arc in order to someday build an Earth-like ecosystem? (And hopefully deliver a healthy human population to the destination.)

@npub1f5c…hqzn All I want for next x-mass is a scifi story where the heroine deduces that the self-replicating killer robots invading Earth are ad supported and defeats them by tricking them to make a call to their ad server which is long shut down because this is not a sustainable business model.
