Author Description

The Pride is a quiet faction dedicated to protecting anthros wherever they are hunted. Their newest asset, a pirate frigate stolen from the Naraka during a covert operation near the Kuiper Belt and renamed The Pride's Claw, now returns to Earth with one mission: recruit a crew willing to risk everything for a chance at survival. Earth is breaking. Storms, quakes, and eruptions strike without pattern as an unexplained phenomenon tears the planet apart from within. Millions are dead. Science has no answers. For anthros, safety is rapidly disappearing. Human extremists demand their eradication. Diggercorp, the corporation responsible for creating them, remains silent. Across collapsing cities and fracturing borders, runaways and outcasts begin to hear rumors of a ship offering escape. Some seek refuge. Some seek purpose. All of them carry secrets that could decide the future of their kind. Survival now is not only about outrunning destruction. It is about identity. It is about choosing who you stand with when the world decides who is worthy of existence. The Pride's Claw offers one final possibility: A future, if they can claim it.
