Creature:Althionor

Althionor were at first a loose confederation of two tribes on Anarius, both struggling to keep themselves alive. They united under Lord Althiobel I, who slew the epic creatures threatening the tribes. Althiobel led the remaining ten thousand Althionor on a long trek across the desert, and only half of them reached the oasis known today as Althiobara. The first city was built there, and from there the Althionor expanded north, into more temperate climates. Althiobara was abandoned, but not forgotten, and soon the Althionor were launching shuttles into space. A long line of the family of Agtama ruled Anarius and its growing number of colonies, until a war broke out on Anarius. In a seven-week campaign, the Althiobel family seized power during a bloody coup and set Lord Althiobel II on the throne. Althiobel II, however, fell ill three months into his reign, and his brother, Althiobel III, was set up as ruler. From there on out the Althionor continued expanding, still expanding and prospering to this day despite tensions with the Apteros in the neighboring star cluster. The Althionor are adaptive omnivores, well-suited to making the best out of any situation. Soldiers, diplomats and missionaries, the Althionor have nearly a hundred colonies now, and are setting their sights on two nearby star clusters that had colonies of one of the great legendary empires, the Hunter empire, which had reputedly over 10,000 colonies before it was wiped out in a massive disease along with most other great galactic powers.
