    I bet it's because they're seen as dangerous eccentrics, that somewhere deep in their subconscious, carbons still fear the threat of irregulars as some sort of racial memory and marginalize their weirdos and lunatics, but keep them around only because they keep society going by forcing them to become diggers.

    Hmm... thats an intresting viewpoint. I guess you don't have to do much to make it grimdark. Still, it does put on a happy face to mask it. Heh, Megaman 40k. That would be hilarous.

    As a side note, I found a forum type thing all about the Legends universe (called Legends Station). A guy on there wrote this up. It is EPIC. Link Honestly, that could just be the setting for the rpg and we'd be done with it.
