The Enimanga are a highly mysterious race of,
what appear to be, crystalline organisms. Little is
known or has been seen of them, and their existence has
come to be generally regarded as a rare phenomenon in
the universe... though, recently, they have become far
more numerous.
They are mostly seen lurking around Anthrapite
space, pursuing of some covert special agenda. Being
highly secretive creatures, they only rarely abandon
what they are doing to communicate with members outside
of their own species. Their minds do not seem to
function with the typical mechanics of organic life, and
their unintelligible words are mostly spoken in rambling
riddles.
Every one of their "vessels" appears to be an
autonomous organism: an entity composed almost entirely
of unknown materials that discharges an eclectic
spectrum of exotic energies. Because of this, popular
myth has caused many to believe that their giant space
cruisers stock-piled with an assortment of precious
cargo. But, though many have tried, very few have ever
lived to tell the tale of surviving combat with even a
single Enimanga starship.
Being of monolithic proportion and bristling with
a lethal armada of strangely potent weaponry, they are
completely harmless when left alone—but become
explosively aggressive when attacked.
Though they keep almost exclusively to
themselves, it has long been speculated that the
Enimanga would be a great boon to the Union in these
perilous times of ravaging pirates and mysterious alien
invaders. And though the Union has gone to extensive
lengths in their attempts contact and befriend the
wayward Enimanga, their ambassadors have made
astonishingly little progress.... |
