Summary
These survivors have turned to intimate knowledge of Planet to ensure their continued prosperity. They can muster many brave warriors, and their native survival techniques are unsurpassed, but their unorthodox methods hamper the development of a modern scientific and industrial base.
Backstory
In desperation, the unaffiliated colonists developed workarounds to set up pressure tents, produce new pressure masks, find native life that could have usable nutrients extracted, and scavenge the strange xenofungal forests of Chiron for trace metals drawn into the stalks to use in building materials. Unlike the other colonies, which largely avoided direct interaction with the xenofungal forests at first, early camps and villages of the survivors of the seventh pod clustered at the very eaves of the xenofungal forests. What the colonists did not fully appreciate was that this rendered them open to constant psionic influence from the fragmented and confused intelligence still inhabiting the xenofungus, which attempted to integrate these foreign invaders into the ecology it oversaw. Within ten mission years, the survivors of the seventh landing pod had begun to take the form they would later be recognised as- organised into clannish family groups, making use of survival techniques honed under the harshest conditions, and living in encampments that were little more than clusters of pressure tents, supported by hand-crafted technology and with a growing mystical religion spearheaded by those members of the new tribes most sensitive to the psionic influence of the xenofungus. Joseph Gilpin, a xenobiologist who had helped develop a number of the survival techniques now in use by the tribes, grew to be recognised as a High Chief to whom the assorted clan heads would listen and submit disputes to. The nucleus of the Confederation of Tribes was born.
