The great UPF conspiracy is that they know the locations of the homeworlds. The UPF high leadership knows that the Sathar destroyed all life on the homeworlds shortly after the Vrusk, Dralasites, and Humans established the first colonies in the Frontier. The Sathar attack all races that they detect developing interstellar travel and cross-species cooperation. The Sathar do this to maintain their dominance and security as a race.<br /><br />The Sathar detected the communications between the three races and learned of the homeworlds. In a decisive coordination of preemptive strikes they attacked and ravaged the homeworld systems. Only after the attacks did they learn that the Vrusk, Dralasites, and Humans had launched colony missions. Some colony ships were found and destroyed. Most were lost to the Sathar and became the new obsession for the Sathar Hierarchy. Meanwhile the colonial leadership of the three races secretly agreed not to alarm the populace until they had established the fate of their home systems. All initial missions failed to return. Then one Vrusk mission made it back by way of a long round about path using waypoints in the vast expanse to lose their Sathar pursuers. They brought back word of utter destruction by means of nuclear and biological weapons. Recovered records from asteroid mining colonies told of the Vrusk waging all out war to defend themselves.<br /><br />The Vrusk shared their sad news with the Dralasite and Human leaders and new missions were agreed upon to secretly visit they Dralasite and Human home systems. They also agreed to make the jump routes back to the home systems classified because of the pursuit that the Sathar had made on the surviving Vrusk ship. All missions back to the home systems would be done by surreptitious routes. These often capitalized upon random waypoints in the Vast Expanse. The Dralasite and Human ships that eventually did make it back to the Frontier brought the same sad news. The home systems were all destroyed by this un-named enemy in genocidal means. The Human homeworld had been bombarded with meteors. The Dralasite homeworld was consumed by horrific bio-forms that had replaced all dral life. Their enemy was un-named and mysterious, only obscure recordings hinted at their nature and form. The final decision of the founding leaders of the Frontier worlds was to hide the home system jump routes and consider them lost.<br /><br />Eventually word started to get out to the populace of the fate of the homeworlds and these rumors became tales and legends. When space travel became available to smaller independent adventurers missions began to seek out the lost home systems. None have ever succeeded. The modern governments have lost the true accounts but those there are those that are tasked with keeping these secrets. They work tirelessly to prevent the common citizen from discovering the truth.<br /><br />Is this truth or just a conspiracy theory?
