- - In-game description
Species under control by the computer with this archetype are generally passive in personality and will sometimes declare tribute as the game progresses. Interestingly, Scientists in the game are suited for military combat but never really attack other empires. They start out with a neutral relationship to other empires and they do not attack other empires unless they are provoked. Their voice is chopped, monotone and computer-like, which could be a reference to Stephen Hawking.

Scientist Unique Power
Edit
The Scientist acquires the Gravitation Wave unique ability. Gravitation Wave can be used to destroy all tribes or cities on a planet, but breaks the Galactic Code. Note: If you are in the Tribal Stage or Civilization Stage, Scientists in the Space Stage won't use it on your planet.
Gaining The Scientist ArchetypeEdit
Through EvolutionEdit
The Scientist archetype is awarded to species that gain an equal number of red and blue cards if the game is started from the cell or tribal stages, or two red and one blue/two blue and one red if the game is started from the creature stage.
The Recommended Path is red red blue blue.
Cell - extra energy
Creature - more health
Tribe - Start as an economic city
Civilization - more spice
| Behavior in the cell stage | Behavior in the creature stage | Behavior in the tribal stage | Behavior in the civilization stage | Resulting archetype |

Through MissionEdit
First you must ally with an empire following this philosophy with a strength factor of 4 or 5, then you may request to become 'like' them from the mission interface. After paying §5,000,000, the mission given is to explore 20 non-planetary systems. Upon completion return to claim your reward and you will change your philosophy and associated archetype, losing your old superpower and gaining the Scientist's Gravitation Wave power.
Note: you may not explore 20 non-planetary systems and then automatically complete the mission upon its acceptance. You must accept and pay for the mission first, THEN explore 20 non-planetary systems.
Scientist's PhilosophyEdit
"We the Scientist Empire follow the Books of Science."
"It is our duty to study, dissect and examine the universe around us. We seek knowledge and it is our fervent belief that every question can be answered with research, systematic categorization, dedication and logic. Knowledge is our fuel and there is no higher calling than learning. Those who try to prevent us from our scholarship do so at their own peril."

Captain AccessoriesEdit
- Compact Generator - Restores some energy over time. Faster energy recovery than normal.
- Compact Battery - Increases maximum energy capacity.
- Power Generator - Restores a great deal of energy over time. Resembles a helmet. Faster energy recovery than with Compact Generator.
- Power Battery - Greatly increases maximum energy capacity.
