In the future humanity has spread among the stars. Uninhabited planets with oxygenated atmospheres are sought out and then seeded with organisms from earth to convert barren, lifeless rocks into habitable wildnerness.
Life is hard for a colonists. Supplies and power are limited and in the early years colonists live in rugged conditions without the luxuries of modern life. Furthermore although the seeds of life sown on the colony planet are from Earth years of accelerated evolution has produced alien and potentially deadly wilderness. In order to improve the chances of the colonists a new profession has sprung up, polymaths.
Fully trained polymaths are experts in everything a new colony needs to know to survive the early days of colony life. From basic medecine, the ecology and zoology of the new planet, it's climate and dangers, polymaths know it all and act as an essential failsafe for unreliable technology and far too fragile human experts.
Unfortunately, you are not fully trained and this is not your planet.
Will you be able to harness your training to keep your colony alive?
