Gaia's Stepdaughters are a faction in Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. Led by Lady Deirdre Skye, they seek harmony with planet.

Faction characteristics[]

  • +1 Planet (environmental safeguards; can capture mind worms)
  • +2 Efficiency (experience with life systems such as recycling)
  • -1 Morale (pacifist tendencies)
  • -1 Police (freedom-loving)
  • +1 Nutrients in fungus squares
  • Can use mind worms as police unit (reverence for native life).
  • May not use Free Market economics
  • Aggression Pacifist
  • Priorities Explore
  • Starting Tech Centauri Ecology
  • Agenda Green (Economics)
  • Aversion Free Market (Economics)

Although Deirdre is not restricted from using the Planned economics choice, an AI-controlled Deirdre will take offense at a player's choice of such.

Leader's defining quote[]

In the great commons at Gaia's Landing we have a tall and particularly beautiful stand of white pine, planted at the time of the first colonies. It represents our promise to the people, and to Planet itself, never to repeat the tragedy of Earth.

-- Lady Deirdre Skye, "Planet Dreams"
