History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
At some point, a genetic bottleneck affected the Humans stranded here after the Ancients' fall, a people who became known as the Anakundu. When the Vilani arrived, there were only a few tens of thousands of them. Primitive and unthreatening, the Anakundu received aid from the First Imperium.
For the next 2,000 years the Anakundu were almost entirely a part of Vilani culture, and had nothing but disdain for the primitive ways of their ancestors.
