Creature:Urvhara

The Urvhara were once Urkhail whose parents were abducted by an unknown race of aliens. These aliens then proceeded to alter the DNA of the fetal Urkhails in utero, giving them multiple eyes on their limbs, vastly enlarged horntusks and a biological 'control device' to amp their aggression and focus it on their former brethren; removal of this third and final item results in the violent death of the Urvhara.

They were created as an invasionary device by their benefactors to take over the planet - they apparently believed in using the local sapient races against themselves. However this race was or is apparently very vain and confident in their abilities, as after the Urvhara initially turned on the Urkhail, the alien race left Urkhaili space and has not yet returned. The battle to come was a difficult one for the Urkhail, yet over the years they slowly succeeded in pushing the Urvhara back, and in the process a great tactician advised Urkhaili platoons to slowly work to break the Urvhara forces up, and with their numbers spread out they proved easier to bring down and wipe them out. It took several more years before the Urkhaili forces stopped turning up Urvhara, and eventually no more would be found and the platoon seeking them out were disbanded.

They are believed by the Urkhail to have been eradicated down to their last individual, thus causing their extinction; however, small pockets still exist in the bone & ash wastes, where they silently plot the downfall of their brethren.

Sporepedia Description
"The Urvhara were created by an unspecified interstellar race as a way to conquer the Urkhail. Abducting Urkhail, they genetically altered them slightly and gave them aggressive personalities before leaving the planet to its fate.  The Urvhara lost the war."
