Lore

Nazrek: Order of the Progenitors

———————————————————————–

These Megadroids, although relatively primitive, seem to have been engineered to survive even the most catastrophic damage. Take this one for example. It was destroyed centuries ago, but its archaically designed neural processor is still functioning at an almost imperceptible level – allowing it to influence or control less advanced machines. I supposed I should be impressed with their durability, but I can’t look at these pathetic rusting hulks and feel anything but disgust and disdain.

———————————————————————–

This spider represents a landmark in the development of Augmentation technology. I released an augmented organism into its lair, which it immediately attacked and then partially consumed. Within minutes, the nanites from the victim began augmenting the spider, reprogramming themselves based on the biological traits of their new host. Not unlike certain biological viruses, these nanites have, in effect, become immortal.

Ohmna: Order of the Progenitors

———————————————————————–

Much to my surprise, I recently discovered this tribe of humanoids living upon these arid wastes. An analysis of their physiology shows that they share numerous traits with Nazrek’s humanoid template – although high levels of biological mutation within the group would seem to indicate that these individuals are descended from early, failed prototypes. I find them… piteous, in a way. Primitive, savage, and brutal, these Dregs have never known anything but rejection and pain.

Love Letter to the Queen

Lore

I love you so very much, my queen.

I am no consort. I am no warrior. I am no hunter.

I am not even Aurin.

To you, I am no one.

I will love you from afar, drinking in your visage with eyes thirsty for your beauty.

When death takes me into its charnel embrace, I will continue to love you.

From beyond the grave, my adoration will swirl about you like ashes on the wind.

Do not fear me, my queen.

For I love you.

Farming was a mistake.

Galeras is nice enough, sure, but between the high winds and the hostile wildlife, we would’ve been better off begging in the streets of Thayd.

The house is a mess. I’m no more a carpenter than I am a farmer. Just ask Myanna. As soon as I nail up a new board, the wind tears another one from the frame.

I’ve had enough of bloody fingers and windy nights!

Venan has been hearing sounds outside. Growls and grunts. It could be anything.

He and his mother look to
me for reassurance… for protection. I may not know how to build a house, but I sure as sugar know how to protect my family.

I’m going out there.

* * *

Canimid! What in the Matria’s name are they doing here? Sniffing around what’s left of my crops, that’s what! One of them spotted me and let out a roar that would’ve stripped the stones from a Gnoxian. My pistol shot didn’t so much as annoy the beast!

We’re heading down into the cellar now. There’s little enough time to do
anything else, and we can’t run away from the canimid. They’ll just chase us down and feast on us.

If you’re reading this, we’re either dead already, or we’re trapped in our own cellar. Please help us, if you can! Don’t let my wife and little boy die because I wasn’t brave enough to fight those stinking canimid monsters!

DATACUBE ENTRY: Irrefutable Rationality

Lore

Vorion: Order of the Makers

———————————————————————–

In light of the imminent conclusion of the Nexus Project, I have requested that my name be taken off the list of potential vessels for the Genesis Prime. As I have been directly responsible for constructing the device that will make its creation possible, it seems illogical that anyone but myself should operate the device when the time comes.
The Archon vehemently attempted to change my opinion, and told me repeatedly that I was the greatest mind in the history of my Order and thus deserving of the honor – but in the end, he could not disagree with the rationality of my argument.

Zarkonis: Order of the Makers

———————————————————————–

Finally, my achievements have been recognized! Today the Archon asked me if I was interested in being one of the vessels for the Genesis Prime. Perhaps my opinion of him has been incorrect. He obviously recognizes that my intellect is considerably greater than the others in my Order – such as Vorion, for example. When I proceeded to tell him so, the Archon stood silently before me, and then walked away. Rendered speechless in the blinding light of my genius! I almost pitied the poor fool.
