instead of overusing, and misusing the term "refugee" and watering it down---how about we use different words instead?

like:
-castaway
-escapee
-outcast
-runaway

@joshua if I may suggest some

- CONTAINMENT BREACH <-- sounds badass, possibly too confrontational, possibly too easy to be coopted by fascists.
- ANOMALY <-- super scifi, but also see above.
- Wanderer <-- mysterious, potentially badass, far less likely to be coopted by the fash, air of magic and mysticism, v. high fantasy
- Transgressor <-- possibly too easy to coopt by the fash, but also sounds punk as fuck
- UNKNOWN SIGNAL <-- super scifi but equally mysterious as Wanderer.

@yuki @joshua hmm, let's examine this

Outlander -> Mysterious, open ended, could be anything from a stranger in a strange land, to someone who just lives on the outskirts of society in general, to just some person who just lives in what are effectively the suburbs, high likelihood of waking up on a prison ship and being unceremoniously dumped off at a random city with no idea where you are or what you're doing and just told "go get a job you're free", also high chance of ascending to godhood
