The Derring-Do were a small population of humans that occupied the hills of Land-Kentucky during the years immediately following the Batavia Excession. The community coalesced around their shared defiance of the philosophy/lives of hard logic espoused and ascribed to by robots, as well as the softer and more cognitively permeable options presented by the Cetaceans. Little is known about their day-to-day existence of the Derring-Do (nor what became of them), though they left behind near limitless network of tunnels and caverns full of elaborate, homemade[1] liquor stills. In fact, they are rumored to have advanced the study of gin and gin derivatives by decades, if not figurative light-years.[2] The Derring-Do were identifiable by their removal/lack of the pinky and ring fingers of their right hand (demonstrating their fleshiness and independence, and allowing the remaining fingers to naturally and gracefully fall into a d-shape) and by their hostility, and occasional outright violence, toward those lacking such lack.

Notes

  1. And frequently musical.
  2. Derring-Do legend holds that the new agricultural and mechanical technologies involved in their gin production were divined through observation/calculation of movements of extraterrestrial objects.
