I didn't want to hijack your Thread with disscussions about the fanfiction

I'd be hounoured to be allowed to use the Organics in my fanfiction. What have you got on the Organics so far? Racial Traits, Characteristics, History etc I'm thinking of Linking them with the Organic Infestation that is near to the Tamarrian Homeworld, but i won't feature them for a month or two, as the Tamarrians are yet to achieve freedom. I Thank you for letting me use such a great race in my story.

leaving now, i'll reply when i come back.

[Taera]

lets see... its not a true race now, so you just tell me what is it you would like to know.

As for Traits, one trait is Symbiotic Organics (advanced organic manipulations). Think of Zerg. An Ancient Race would be the second one as this race IS ancient.

[Raging Deadstar]

Well anything you have in mind for race name, biology, society and history descriptions, and any other random stuff you have in mind for them! Anything would be useful

[Raging Deadstar]

Bump because Taera is Online Do i need an excuse to bump a thread

[Taera]

yes sorry been distracted
Their name is Grasthraggnok. No empire type.
They are led by the Kor'Areagohr named Qerdkaol.

No real biology/society/history yet, i'll do something for you tomorrow.

As for now these are highly cultured symbiotic race that are counted amongst the most ancient species ever. It is rumored that life in most systems was a result of their work. The Grasthraggnok had mastered life in all of it aspects - including death. They are the absoulte masters of manipulation of organic and their great spawning chambers can produce anything alive. In their past they have faced a treacherous backstab attack from another, now completely extinct, ancient empire. The Grasthraggnok had lost the war relatively quickly partially because of a decision to withdraw - completely and without bridges left. They simply took off and left the unfriendly galaxy to live on its own. They had found a dead cluster on the edge of the Universe and brought it back to life. For millions of years they had built back, slowly consuming system after system, sector after sector.

Right now they are the most massive force ever existed. Their ships individually are vulnurable (living matter not as powerful as engineered metals) and their weapons arent the most powerful but they overcome anything by sheer number - they simply swarm, taking the odds of being about 1000 for every enemy ship.

The Grasthraggnok are bent on revenge. Towards the rest of the universe. They hold a belief that the other races did simply not want to warn them of the coming threat and that their creations (most other lifeforms) are inferior, lacking and pathetic. They seek to exterminate all life in all forms and simply to take the galaxy to themselves, as it should have been.

They also hold a specific hatred towards all beings based on energy. Their closest allies had been energy-based creatures and the Grasthraggnok believe they had betrayed them for the enemy.

Grasthraggnok make no treaties and no agreements. No trade, nothing. They expand, defile and exterminate.

EDIT: addition - they view all other lifeforms as inferior, as they are. The Grasthraggnok had developed themselves to the level that there are no longer the "Grasthraggnok species". Grasthraggnok are all created through genetic engineering according to current need. All space-borne creatures, facility plants and worker units are the Grasthraggnoks made for their purpose. The Grasthraggnok eliminated all and every genetic flaws in themselves and to their view other races are cowardly, inferior and dirty.

[Taera]

are you doing a roleplay game or writing a story?

[Raging Deadstar]

It's just a story loosely based on the space empires universe with space empires races and technology. It isn't based on a game or anything so anything can really happen. Thank you for the information
