The Jerrys

Description
The Jerrys are a race of similarly featured and likeminded individuals. As their name suggests, they try much too hard.

History
The origin of the Jerry race ( plur: "Jerrys" and never "Jerries") is something of an enigma even to themselves. History in Jerry society is divided into two epochs, pre-union and post-union.

Pre-Union:
Pre-union history begins with the mass exodus of the first Immortal jerrys from a planet whose name and location has been lost. They found themselves upon the planet of Asterion, now considered the homeworld of the Jerrys. These Jerrys did not age, but one by one succumed to tragically avoidable accidental deaths. It is gathered that the last immortal Jerry was driven mad by his loneliness and devoted his life to what has become the basis of Jerry reproduction, the Jerry cloning facility. Unfortunately, the last immortal Jerry apparently died when he plugged it in before exiting the machine, taking with him the last possibility of learning the true origin of the Jerrys.

Upon successful emergence of the first ninety nine jerry clones, it became apparent that not only had Jerry cloned his intelligence, he had also cloned his loneliness. Thus was born the plan to discover the location of the Unity Engine.

Post-Union
The Unity Engine was simple in principle, but vastly too complicated even for all of the Jerrys to build themselves. So, they stole it from an alien ruin.

Once the Jerrys had successfully unified they found that their loneliness, rather than going away, had multiplied. How they were unable to foresee this eventuality, being a race of emotional clones, is a matter of heated debate to this day.

Finally, the Jerrys looked to the stars.

Ambition
Jerry has recently become obsessed with the singular mission of bringing peace and independence to each of the nations in the galaxy. Jerry cannot say why this is, perhaps it is yet another passing whim. Or perhaps Jerry is finally trying to appease his ego once and for all.

Highlord Jerry Prime
To speak of single Jerrys is much like referring to a single branch on a tree, or a limb on an animal. Individually they have no agency. Collectively, they are Highlord Jerry Prime.

Unfortunately this means that, at the same time, all and none of the Jerrys are Highlord Jerry Prime. This quandry troubles Highlord Jerry Prime constantly.
