History & Background / Dossier

After an extremely tentative first contact, the Angels proved to be friendly and generous and were able to assist the Armada with vital supplies and repairs. They in return received technological and astrophysical data, and knowledge of DeVoss Drives. The Last Armada had left the Angels' home system by 2180AD. Much of what is known of the Angels comes from the Zelig Journal, a document that survives from the time.

The Angels' home system is remembered within the Distant Fringe as a mythical sanctuary and a paradise.
