[edit] Zynanth Race
The Zynanth were bred by an unknown ancient race thousands of millennia ago on Kuni I. They were 'super-evolved' by chemical intoxication by an unknown race. There evolution adapted at amazing speed, and they adapted to there surroundings better than any race in the system. There huge forms unfortunately made it impossible to hunt under honeycomb mazes underneath Kuni I due to the fact they couldn't fit. However, there was an abundance of bacterial life forms that the pores of the creatures vacuumed in. And thus fed them constantly without effort, Some believe this is because the 'unknown race' had created special genetic enhancements to adapt them to be very resourceful, worshipers of the Hierarchy believe that they simply has a good 'Evolutionary Chain' this also links in with there un-fathom-ably powerful metabolism. Even in there fourth 'Centarial Estus' (CE<) there evolution is quick, again they believe the 'unknown race' has genetically knitted specially drugs into there race, and makes there evolution rate increase due to the high amount of Glucose and Gluten being pumped into there bodies. This strange concoction makes there pain muffled. And make them very resistant to most radioactive enviroments. The life blood of the Zynanth are that they are extremely resistant to pretty much everything, this means that they can colonize almost any planet. Most races are jealous of this, but although they can stand serious climate punishment. They rarely tread outside of there system, preferring only to move if they really need to due to lack of resources for example. Otherwise, they try and keep a corner in the galaxy, and keep out of other races ways.
As a race, they are reasonably timid. And are quick to shun strangers - However, there impeccable reactions and constantly thinking brain makes there technologies come in thousands by the year.
The Zynath are all together a fast evolving, fast moving, fast thinking race. There breeding is the same, once the male's and females mate - The egg is laid in any cold area for a 'cryo-genesis' esque birth. This makes them have a high immunity to cold. And because of the heat inside the egg, blistering heat also.
However, when the Zynanth are ushered into battle by there huge Colossus Titan's the sheer weight in numbers of the Zynanth that pour out of the 300 foot tall vehicle over power any enemies in there way. Also there advanced technologies obliterate there opposition.
[edit] Important People
Alaron is the Overseer of the Zynanth race - He was elected leader when he said he could speak with the 'Hierarchy' (Gods) He now takes orders from them for the good of the entire race. He has had a long life so far, even for Zynanthian standards. All of his children also have an hereditary ability to talk to the Hierarchy. And that is how the royalty will live on.
Age - 34023 Human Years
[edit] Calendar
The Zynanth calendar procedes as follows-
CE meaning Centarial Estus
Translation - Sun's Dawn.
CE<a
During this period. The Zynanth were evolving from there primitive state. And were very tribal, due to the fact Kuni I was almost inhabitable for most species other than the Zynanth. They became very wary of each other, and started creating nations over the planet.
During most of this era it was almost eventless, apart from the constant adaption due to Kuni I's volatile climate
In the earlier stages of there species, the Zynanth were pushed to near extinction by a virus. There immunities had been compromised somehow, some believe that the virus was created by the 'unknown race' to punish them for 'sinning'
CE<b
CE<c
In 243459 CE<c of Zynanth lore, there was supposedly a great war with the other sapient species of the planet Kuni I, II, and III. There technology was far greater than the Zynanth, but the Zynanth were bigger, and larger in numbers, the race they fought was called the Krin.

[edit] Stages of evolution
The Zynanth are believed to be an extremely violent race in it's older time. After leaving the 'Primordial Soup' they were a slug from, with teeth and mouths all over there body. And wherever they moved they consumed food, some believe this is where the evolution of eating bacteria through there pores came from.
Afterwards they turned into vertebrates, with 2 arms, and 4 legs. Absorbing bacteria as there source of food. They were cut off from most life because they were above the harsh areas of Kuni I. And thus became slovenly, this may be were there timid nature comes from.
After the rejuvenation of Kuni I, life sprung once again on Kuni I. The Zynanth started to socialize, but sadly were shunned because of there inability to communicate well. This left them to there lightning fast brain reactions, to live in a segregated group, and be able to build amongst there technology. And eventually became the dominant species over the Kuni I.
[edit] Stages of life
The Zynanth go through basic childhood for around a 1000 years. During this time evolving and experiencing harsh climates.
Then they are spiraled into adulthood for 25000 years. The process of being accepted by the Zynanth civilization is performing certain tests in harsh areas, and displays of affection towards other Zynanths
during the last 4000 or more years of life they are turned into the priests of there deity. Believing it is there duty, and is a safe passage into the 'Next-Life'
[edit] Myths
Most people believe the 'Unknown Race' as they are referred to are actually the Hierarchy. The worshipers of this faith consider this blasphemy. And say it was simply a good evolutionary chain.
Others believe that a race called the Humans are actually the founders of the Zynanth race, and that they are actually an artificial species, used for testing.

[edit] Weapons
Although the Zynanth are quiet, and disputes are rare amongst each other. There technology leads them to create innovations in weaponry design. This could possibly be to prove that the Zynanth making the new weapon is better than the rest. This competitiveness makes weapons an abundance in Zynanth society.

[edit] NIDSPIRe-X1
NIDSPIRe-X1 (Necrosis Injection Dart (SPIRe - The company) (X1 - The Version))
Generation: 1st
Caliber: 3 Feet long NID tube
Activator: Body heat
Description: Possibly the first advanced weapon made. the NIDSPIRe-X1 has a long missle launcher type appearance, one launcher holds 18 slots of tubes, and the carrier has a holster which holds 72 more tubes, similar to an arrow bucket. Although very thin, the tubes are extremely long, and have enough power to go through 2 inch thick solid Zynanamite Steel. Though it may seem like heavy ordnance, the first use of this was with infanty, when it fire's it pierces through several soldiers armour, injecting them all with a lethal poison, that causes instant necroses of skin tissue and kills them from the inside if the impaling isn't enough. The weapon is activated by the hot areas on the Zynanth torso, as the launcher is connected with the torso, and strapped onto the top of the forearm. The Zynanth intense brain power and speed sends millions of neuron messages down there nerves, causing heat, and activating the weapon. These weapons quickly became out-of-date because they were made for a select enemy, however, they were used for a few thousand years as standard after it's invention.
Story:
A scientist was being pestered by mass amounts of Orrigaunts (indeginous species of Kuni I). So he created a long tube that would pierce all of there thick skin, in a single shot, and added a tranquilizer on the tip of the dart tube. Because of there fast skin regeneration. He had to quickly move them out of his testing zone, he then settled them in an area on a completely different continent. This led to the raids of Settlement Zendis, so he created a poison that would counteract there regeneration, and instead kill off there skin tissue. Usually making them vulnerable to other attacks. The scientist afterwards ceased his genetic enhancement program, and went on to arms dealing.
Some believe that this was adapted from spears tipped in poison from there primitive ancestors, most people believe this is untrue.
[edit] Asterfex
Aster-fex I (Meaning Plasma Death)
Generation: 1st
Caliber: 5 KG Plasma Pod.
Activator: Body movements
Description: One of the most devastating weapons of it's time. The Aster-fex I has a changeable ring what fits round the waist of the Zynanth, two long tubes lead up to the forearms of the wearer, where the Plasma gets released.4 straps make an X shape over the wearers chest, and there is an attached Plasma Pod on the back of the wearer. Due to the Plasma Pods life time, it is rarely needed to be changed in one battle. It fires 500 rounds a minute, and can fire for roughly 2 days without running out. The way the weapon works, is that the back pod releases small fragments of plasma through the tubes attached to the straps, and on it's way super-heats it to blistering temperatures. Then the weapon on the forearm coils it around a shard of Zynanamite Steel, and then slings it out a super high velocity, the shard rips open the foe's armor and flesh, and inflicts them with plasma residue, burning there insides.
