VOICES IN A RENTED ROOM

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Transapients, in the fictional Orion's Arm universe, are post-Singularity sophonts that have totally surpassed the human or equivalent sapient condition. They represent an intermediate ranking between ordinary sophont and archailect.Their origins are diverse; they include posthumans or other ascended biological beings, ascended cyborgs, ascended vecs (sophont robots), aliens, AIs, or other beings, remotes or agents of archailects, offspring of other transapients, or any combination of any of these or more. They may be human-like, or so alien as to be beyond human understanding. Some interact directly or through proxies in the affairs of ordinary sophonts, others choose to ascend to the rank of, or be incorporated in, higher toposophic beings.
