The Church of the Shattered God is a religion, founded by Markovians, and dedicated to re-uniting the Primordial Mind that created the universe in their belief.  They hold Encephaloids  in special regard as having a larger fraction of Primordial Mind due to the relative complexity and size of their brains.  High Communion is a special occasion when the congregation network their brains together in order to reach an ecstatic state.  All the thoughts and emotions in the congregation run together, producing a variety of responses in the participants.  Many have come out of this ritual permanently altered, personalities changed for better or worse, new memories implanted, or just the feeling of being part of some cosmic harmony with their fellow congregants.

A new character sprite, Wiggly is a Jovian musician who crash landed on New Albuquerque. Jovians pretty much always start a conversation with a question. This is because they evolved alongside a non-speaking subspecies who are nearly identical to the jovians. It is important for them to quickly discover who is a proper jovian because this subspecies (the Kal) are very dangerous apex predators. The guy who doesn't answer to wassup? might be waiting to eat you for lunch.

Colony City Coffee was one of the early businesses that started in the aftermath of the wreck of Garcia's Hope on New Albuquerque. On Earth, before the diaspora, there had been many places like this, a kind of return to the mythic past for the survivors living on an unknown world.

"I call it the Mind-pod", said the catgirl, climbing the platform. "I have been scavenging this dusty scrapheap for years, and every time I find something actually worth keeping, I store it in here. It's where I go to think my thoughts."

This titanic wall of spaceship hulls crosses the land for as far as the eye can see, a gigantic memorial of ancient battles. Now it has become the home of scavengers, outcasts, and outlaws.
