== | == History == | ||
The time raiders | === Origin === | ||
The [[synlirii]] created the time raiders as soldiers, intended to be under the synlirii's full control. The breeding to improve the [[psionic]] abilities led to the time raiders realizing the tyranny of their masters.{{cite book/fm|229}} | |||
After | The kuran'zoi rebelled against the synlirii during the [[First Psychic War]], liberating themselves. After the war they settled as nomads of the [[Astral Sea|Sea of Stars]]. {{cite book/fm|229}} | ||
== Time raider culture == | |||
After liberating themselves they settled as nomads on the [[Astral Sea]], often employed themselves as pirates and raiders on the Astral Sea, while others make their living as guides for travelers form other planes. {{cite book/fm|229}} {{Cite web/ds december 2024/mm|190}} | |||
