List of minor species

Amror

The Amror were an interstellar species native to Theta Najmanowicz A I. Decades ago, when the Amror had only begun the take their first steps into space when strange beings called the Harmony appeared in orbit, and began a slow but relentless attack. Many Amror fled into space, where they were still pursued by the Harmony. Those that fled left several record caches in the Cudgel cluster for any Amror that would follow. But ultimately, only one ship was able to evade them.

Little did the Amror know, these Harmony were fighting machines who rebelled against their creator, a lone madman by the name of Gramuoir Renoot. This brilliant but lonely Amror had created the Harmony to to do errands for him, fight his battles, and provide him with companionship. He was able to escape from his creations in a ship of his own design, and hid on the planet Drypsyn VII. Here he hid in shame for many years, attempting to get help from others such as the Menkmack to create a device capable of defeating the Harmony and saving his people. Eventually, with the help of the humans, he was able to create a nullifier that rendered most Harmony ships inoperable. Unfortunately he was too late, the Harmony had already wiped out the remaining Amror on his homeworld. Gramuoir vowed to wipe out the Harmony entirely, however it is unknown if the captain allowed him to join their fleet, or finished the job, rendering the Amror extinct.

Boscan

The Boscans are a species or faction of aliens whose ships are used in a region of the Outer Spur that is home to many refugees and scavengers. They seem to be affiliated with the Syndicate.

Charlox

The Charlox are a tentacled species from the planet Charlox in the Gamma Orchidum System. Years ago, they found a source of energy in their moon, Minio, but in their harvesting of it they shattered the moon. As a result, toxic dust rains on their homeworld, slowly killing off the species. Ten years ago they began construction of a colony ship to settle on the planet Areons or its moon Milos. They sent many of their most gifted citizens, but the ship sadly never made it, they received their last transmission from it within a month. The Charlox had failed to account for radiation protection, but they had no way of gleaming such until the humans arrived. The humans were able to reveal to the Charlox the fate of their colony ship, and provided them with enough Lead to make a protected colony ship. Allowing them to settle on Areons, ensuring the future of their species.

Halgothi

The Halgothi are a pompous species native to planet Halgoth in the Altair system. Biologically, they are a tentacled species with multiple anuses. They have only recently developed space travel, and have a poor understanding of the universe and their place in it. They have kerosene-powered tools and haven't yet left their solar system, yet expect any other aliens to have heard of them, likely due to them believing the universe is only a million miles across and half as wide. Little is known of their early history, besides the fact that their first emperor was an individual named Kob.

A few decades ago they sent out their first space probe, coincidentally a species from the same system known as the Hurnians, had sent out a probe at the same time. A nearby Kzanti pirate took advantage of this, scrapping the probes thus leading the Halgothi to believe that the Hurnians were responsible. Thus they spent two decades making another probe, to declare war on the Hurnians. They developed space travel at the cost of most of their planet's metals, thus their war with the Hurnians became one for expansion.

• Known Ships: Halgoth Prototype

Harmony

The Harmony are an artificial race of battle machines created by the Amror scientist Gramuoir Renoot. They were created to fight his battles, do errands, and provide him with companionship. However they rebelled against their master and eventually wiped out the rest of the Amror race. They inhabit a number of stars in the eastern Outer Spur, and fly massive and powerful battleships.

They primarily survive by preying upon "young" starfaring races, often picking through the "bones" of races destroyed by the Scryve. They also literally feed on bones. The Kzanti are known for a being a diverse bunch, and quite violent. Their overreliance on violence makes them cause a lot of headaches for the rest of the Syndicate. Some Kzanti work as miners, guards, and on transport ships.

Kri

The Kri are an insectoid member race of the Syndicate. They are bandits, who have hunted Norast refugees for decades with religious fervor. They steal their cargo and food, and believe the Norast to be some sort of harvest, sent by their gods.
