I've recently been thinking about bringing 'Zombies' into Discovery, however after alot of thinking, I've come to the conclusion that having Zombies flying around in ships, pew pewing everything and anyone, it simply wouldn't suit RP.
So, I've come up with a RP story which would justify them being Zombie like.
It was originally thought up, that my Phantom ( a mad doctor which operated on people, experimenting with nomad / Human DNA ) would have something to do about the existence of the 'Zombies' but, I thought it wouldn't be the greatest RP story.
So, I've thought up of another one.
During the nomad war, Wilde started capturing innocent civilians, and Military personnel, they began operating, and experimenting on human DNA structures, and the effects of different chemicals, such as Cardamine. The humans which provided useless were sent to a prison within the Schatten Research Facility.
The Wilde simply didn't want anything to do with the humans which weren't able, they locked them up, and allowed them to rot.
After the assault on Schatten Research Facility, the Wilde wiped the database clean of such prisons, and such experiments.
After several years, some of the radiation caused by certain humans, caused the hull of the prisons to become breached. All of the humans which were able, got out, and attacked the base from within, many of them died, but due to the surprise of a attack from within the base, the Military were unable to defend it well enough to make sure the threat was contained. The humans which were able to make it the bays, and escape through the minefield, we're either dying, or dead by the time they got through the minefield.
Many humans had different drugs / chemicals injected into them, causing them all to have different effects compared to each other. The escapee's settled down on the abandoned, uncompleted planet Holstein. But some grew enough strength, mentally and physically to pilot fighters. Their mission was simple.To free others from Schatten Research Facility. As well as to live their dream, to be free. During the next few months, and several minor attacks on the research facility, it became clear that it impossible to breach the base once more. So, a ex-military soldier, Hanz Wolfizine, stood up, and abandoned the dream of being free, the others followed him, and now he is the leader of a small forgotten people, seeking revenge on the Military for abandoning them...
I've thought about the hostile, and allies of these 'zombies' and well, it's pretty obvious that Rhienland lawful are going to be hostile. Wilde, ofcourse. As for the unlawful side, I've haven't got a Idea how RHA, or the Unioners are going to treat them. So, for that I'm going to let RP take it's cause.
As for allies, the only thought I've had would be the zoners ? Well not allies, but the Zoners would help the cause of the 'zombies' by letting them have eagles, and Roc's, as well as weapons, but only 'till they escape the rest of the prisoners.. that's pretty far sighted RP in my opinion.
I've thought about the ID, and IFF. It would be a Pirate ID, with Freelancer IFF.. heh.
As for the ships, civilian, eagle, roc, shark tail, etc. ( which would be better RP if they had Zoners arming them) If the unlawful side of Rheinland, choose to help the 'zombies' too, then that would be maybe a side of ships / weapons.
As for the rest of Sirius, I doubt the 'zombies' will have anything against them, and I doubt they will be able to meet them.. unless [LN] / LNS invade Rheinland, then that would be a new RP encounter and all, bla bla..
So... thoughts ?
Edit: I'll add more information, as more people ask questions. Also, I'm thinking of a better name..

Um... No. I don't think you understand how the Nomads/Wild operate. The Nomads know exactly how people work, how Cardamine works, they wouldn't need trial and error and research.
The Nomads are so far beyond humanity technologically, that human facilities and research methods would compare as crayons to them.
On top of that, Nomads know 99% of how humans work, they can cure any disease, any lasting conditions, even fix crippling disabilities. With enough time, and a non-purebred Outcast, they can completely cure a human body of long term Cardamine use.
Not that they'd have any reason or desire to.
Tactically and logically, it doesn't fit the Nomads either. Imagine the Gaians experimenting on people to create super soldiers. Doesn't make sense does it? Well neither does this.

Unless the people in question are Edison Trent and his bunch.
I think you are overestimating their capabilities.
