The Vexor are an extinct Minor Non-Human Race.
Description (Specifications)[edit]
An extinct minor race of the Empty Stars region.
- They inhabited the Intersect Cluster, on the coreward side of the Moat Rifts.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
The existence of this species was discovered by the Jannasta Expedition
Vexor[edit]
From the journals of Commander Sebastian Falcon Jannasta:
On a small planet with a low gravity and a vast thick, dense atmosphere. Green photosynthetic producers thrive in abundance. Vast jungles of verdant emerald life fill countless ecological niches. Oxygen and aerobic respiration abound. Carbon and water based life covered the globe and altered the atmospheric concentrations of gases as their world aged. Eventually the producers began to create smaller motile vectors for the advantageous distribution of reproductive materials to ensure greater adaptive viability. Large organic networks of sessile producers would link and reach out with small packets of information. Free floating “pollen” and eventually larger more macroscopic forms. The spare energy would come from the very efficient climax producers would could store vast polymerized sugars and starches. The mobile plant vectors experienced and explosion of forms and morphologies. They walked, crawled, flew, swam and occasionally, all of the above. Very slowly the rates of inter-organism, and inter-species communication rose above a biochemical level and the networking began to adjust faster to changes in the environment. Natural disasters, impacts, fires etc. triggered more advanced strategies.
The climate of the planet began to change as their star aged. The cooling effects as the spectral class wore on altered their quiet cycles of life. In response they began to investigate, first their planet and then they sought to perceive that which lay beyond the clouds. They grew forms to fly higher to peek above the clouds. Massive motile forms worked like giant builders, cranes and soil movers all in one. Each mobile form under the direction of the photosynthetic biomass. Better servitors evolved with better environmental sensors and the ability to manipulate resources in the environment. As they learned and stored more information in their biomass they began to realize their changing star would eventually kill them all in a few million years. They would have to leave if they wanted to survive. This idea was not their own. Visitors from other species were observed settling on the gas giant moons and the inferno planets closer to the massive star. This seemed to indicate that these things were possible. So it was decided to grow a servitor that could withstand the rigors of vacuum.
