Archonum

History

To settlers on the fringes of the Stellar Empire galaxy, the Archonum are considered a ghost story or cryptid folklore. They have spent millennia subsisting on other sentient races. Numerous abductions have occurred, and settlements have been harvested with nearly no survivors.

Scattered tales from deep space pirates of Longshot, survivors driven mad by what they saw, are all the galactic community has to reference. Most major empires won’t even acknowledge the legitimacy of the Archonum species. Most “proof” is the remains of abandoned hive clusters with minimal biological remains to decipher their origins.

Given the lack of survivors, pirates are blamed for many lost ships. Without significant evidence and ships seeming to disappear completely, the Archonum infestation goes uncatalogued.
