If we concentrate on Unity then, I guess, my bet would be:
[X] Velen: A realm equally distant from all of the infernal realms Velen is a frequent sight for battles between a variety of infernal forces.
Benefits: No infernal forces will focus on you.
Flaws: You'll be besieged by a much wider variety of infernal forces.
\Why? Multiple infernal forces– multiple biological, magical, soul based research (though some infernal forces have good tech we could "borrow" and "improve"). Here it is possible to understand how internal-conflicts can be resolved. It will be possible to find some useful resources to expand to other realms. . So what do you think?

Character Sheet
OOC: The character sheet, I'll be closing the votes sometime later today unless a sudden rash of voting happens.
Name: Joey
Gender: Male
Age: Older then he looks
Brief Description: Born during humanities early forays into other dimensions Joey was born with an unusual talent in already strange times. While most of his early past is unknown to this day it is known that Joey was a participant in the UN's early psychic research, during which he proved to be more then adept with his powers, even if he was behind the likes of the famed Yuriko Omega or Alma. He would eventually come to be a part of humanities earliest attempts at colonization, and even fought in the first war with the Hierarchy developing a deep seated hatred of the alien policy in the process. It was this war that would come to a defining moment in Joey's life, as the over use of his psychic powers in such an environment strained his mind and lead to him developing a wrathful disposition that remains a prominent part of his personality to this day. Still his incredibly powers, experience in other dimensions, and surprising amount of charisma meant that he would not remain in retirement for long. He first came into contact with youkai beach as the result a failed assassinated attempt by an organization known as Fairy Tale, and attempt the ended with his breaking on of the would assailants in half and utterly destroying the mind of another. This performance in battle brought him to the attention of Youkai Beach, who where looking for someone with the right mindset to lead a mixed human/youkai colony. Eventually after a long screening process it was decided that Joey was fit for the job, and the war weary psychic soon found himself at as one of the many colonial leaders in a new age of exploration.

Wow, this will definitely help:
- Know how to defend himself and organise his colony
- If 'psychic' allow for mind-seeing (very, very surface thoughts, like Tosh from 'Starcraft') then we can quickly 'Unity' youkai and humans
- Know how to explore and exploit new territory.. need to say more?
- Hating imperialistic (alien) regime, OK. Hate other aliens, very bad.
All in all – a stabil built with realistic problems. Very good start.
Our colony consists of:
-Succubi/Inccubi
-Enchanters and Golems
-Witches (.......are there wizards? Because I doubt Ruby's father was a mere human)
-Humans (cannot forget this)
??– We ARE going for mainly 'Unity', right? . . . Guys? Gals?

While playing a Human-Youkai faction gives some interesting exotic capabilities from the start, there seems to be a lack if the usual transhuman options Beyond Earth normally has. Though I suppose more philosophies and options would likely open up based on where exactly we settle.

I would go for a primary ideology of Combination, with Unity and Supremacy as secondary ideologies.

Yeah, I also am tempted by this, but it would be .... beneficial to concentrate on 'Unity' with a dash of 'Combination' and something else (3rd option could be anything).
Pros:
+
not to mention it is relatively "loose" interpretation that veers in other territories (a lot of options)undead frog said:
+ can start with rectifying tension between humans and youkai themselves WITHOUT destroying everything (too extreme policy and all thing go "caput")
+ our choice of world (Kzyer ..I think?) also blurs the difference between humans and youkai, teaching to look past some of our flawed traits
Do anyone wants to add their own thoughts?

Pretty much, it actually is possible to augment parts of your human population beyond what Purity would normally go for but you'll never be able to do it the extent that Harmony/Supremacy would unless you go combination.
Anyay on the next prat.
*Rolls for starting position*
Oh boy.
*Uses the Re-roll*
Uuuuh definitely better then the first one at least.

Personally I don't think we have to go 100% overbore. And as mentioned before 'Unity' is quite flexible, and can be connected with some other options. Not to mention that magic creates a lot of changes. Youkai and humans on Kzyer are more similar than we want to admit.
This will be intense.
True, especially since the Winds of Magic (Ie warhammer fanasy style magic) tends to change it users.
Good thing youkai (The energy) users like Witches can't use use the winds and the humans of tihs earth and literally incabile of using other winds once they touch one so they couldn't create Dhar if they wanted too.
Other species are less lucky and some human derived mutants (Like the Skaven) can use Dhar so you might want to watch out.
Turn 1
[x] A fiery continent
You look over your volcanic surroundings with no small amount of unease. The original intent had been to land on one of the more habitable continents such as the golden one or the life one, but always it seems that lady luck had other plans.
Soon after exiting the dimension shift your landing craft ran afoul of one of the many hostile species that propel the dimensional plane, in this case a band of Cosmic Space pirates, a species rarely seen out of the Galactic Sea and one just as tough as the other species to bear the Space Pirate name.
Thankfully the ship was no able to continue pursuit for long as it was a simple raider, not meant to leave the Galactic Sea for extended periods of time.
Still the navigation was damaged in the fighting and you where forced to make an emergency landing. It was only with great effort that you managed to land avoid landing anywhere worse than this let alone end up somewhere better.
"Well everyone made it through the landing ok." You are interrupted from your thoughts when Tyran Ironsides walks up beside you. "I don't think we have enough fuel to change positions though."
"Well make due." You sigh thus was inconvenient, but things where far from impossible. "I've been in worse positions over the years."
"I can believe that." Tyran shrugs as he looks around. "Although if someone told me that I'd be representing the Enchanters on an interdimensional expedition two years ago I wouldn't have believed a word of it."
"If someone told me sixty years ago that I'd see the first Enchanter married to a Witch I'd have laughed myself to death." You smirk. "But here you and Emerald are happily married as I've ever two people."
"Point." Tyran chuckle "I can't say we liked each other much when we first me though, that woman sure loves her Tarantula Hawks if nothing else."
You wince at the mention of Tarantual Hawks and try to repress your memories of those radiative wastelands born from the war with the Hierarchy. "How did you two ever start bonding anyway, you hated each other around a decade ago."
"To be frank sir we were both terrified of you." Tyran rubs the back of his head. "Our first introduction was during one of your 'episodes' remember."
"Right." You think back to that day. "I suppose I can be a little…intimidating to those who have yet to get to know me."
"The fact that you can shred a room full of A class youkai like a blender shreds fruit doesn't help." Tyran looks at the sky as a crow made entirely of ash flies by.
"True." He does have a point even if you are loath to admit it your powers have always put those around you at edge. "Well we aren't going to get this colony set up by just standing around." You say walking back towards the ship. "Come on with had some work to do."
Tyran nods before following close behind you.
It's time to get to work.

Producible City Buildings:
Enchanters Guild: The older meeting place of Enchanters an Enchanters Guild allows the enigmatic border beings to trade their secrets in peace and boosts a cities production by 1.
Barracks: A dedicated facility meant for the training of soldiers as well as the production of military equipment, allows a city to train Basic Armies and other infantry heavy forces.
War factory: A military facility for the production of vehicle this structure allows a city to produce armored armies and other vehicle heavy forces.
Airport: A military facility meant for the production of aircraft and airport allows a city to produce areal squadrons.
Port: A production facility meant for the production of ships a Port allows a city to create seafaring vessels.
Witches Hut: A massive hut that matches the durability of other building through strange magic's the Witches Hut is the perfect place for brewing concoctions, increases a city's health by 1.
Church: A place of faith for many the church works to preserve peace between peace and youkai as the alternative is a war that would end with both species in trouble, improves public order and happiness by 1.

Research (Choose 1 research action)
[x] Ash Resistance: If we are to thrive we will need to find some way to construct improvements upon the barren fields of ash.
[x] Ash Farms: Emerald believes that with some help from your geneticists she might be able to turn the Ash fields into something useful.
[x] Sanctic Weapons: One of the biggest advantages the Knights Templar bring to a battle are sanctic enchantments that provide incredible effectiveness against otherworldly or infernal enemies. The enchantments themselves are rather simple to make, and would greatly increase your forces effectiveness against a number of opponents.
[x] Youkai Genetics: A study into how Youkai work could prove to be a great stepping stone for far more complex subjects of research.
[x] Aqshy Crystals : This crystals are as powerful as they are strange it would be best to do some research into they're nature.
[x] Witch Integration: A study of how best to integrate Witches into our military.
[x] Enchanter Combat Engineers: Enchanters are as good with human technology as youkai users can get, we should see if they have any potential for further integration with our forces.
Actions:
[x] Send a unit to scout (Can use any available units but some are better then others.)
[x] Set your colony to produce either a unit or a building.
[x] Add an improvement to one of your tiles. (Requires an available worker for each tile you plan to improve.)

I really wanted to start either with Aqshy Crystals (If we can get additional energy and some insight in magic/youkai/tech advancements, why yes please) or Ash Resistance (the more lands we can use, the better our chances of survival).
–BUT unless we have a steady food supply (and partly to acclimatise to the new surroundings, partly to initiate co-working relationship) colony won't be able to grow, advance and unite.
Edit: • Is it possible to gain some additional youkai species in the future? Multiculturality is always interesting.
