Social Segments / Status Ladders

"The three main character groups have the most apparent segments and hierarchies."

The Impoverished
The poor and homeless members of the population.

Average Joes and Plain Janes
These are everyday, ordinary, tax-paying citizens.

White Collars
These are essentially the upper-middle class. In today's standards, they may be considered wealthy, but they have been left barely able to make ends meet due to the Great Conspiracy.

Lifelong Cosmonauts
These are people who have spent their life diligently focusing on their work, ultimately working their way up the chain to lead Project Unearthing.

Tech Engineers
These are the masterminds who make technological advancements physically possible.

Interns
This is where every scientist in the project begins.

Elite
These individuals are the top class of the top class. They are running the people who run everyone.

Federal Officials
These are elite members of the world who are part of the Earth Federation, but not necessarily controlling the whole thing.

Assistants
This is a very thinly veiled term for "servants."
