GFF - Saurian Starhost v2.
50
Intro
Saurian Starhosts are an ancient coalition of humanoid reptiles
led by giant Frog Mages. Their armies combine advanced
technology with genetically modified predators to make them
fearsome foes.
The Saurians are perhaps the most ancient race in the galaxy,
but most of their species lie dormant in cyro-pyramids. The
Saurians seek to awaken their host to prevent a prophesied
disaster, however many of their pyramids have been lost or
destroyed, and some have begun to fear that they have already
failed their mission.

Background Story
Saurians claim that the Frog-Mages who created them existed
before time began. Their Mages teach them that their purpose is
to fulfill a great prophecy which they have held from the
beginning: in time, the fabric of reality would break, and their
fate would be to save it. The Frog-Mages created cryo-pyramids
and scattered themselves through the galaxy to ensure that they
would be ready to fulfill their purpose when their time came.
In their absence, a number of new species began to explore and
settle throughout the galaxy. This led to a surge of psychic power
which awoke one of the dormant Frog-Mages, who was now
alone in the galaxy. The lone Frog-Mage found a galaxy at war,
and fearing that this was the beginning of the end, he hoped to
awaken his fellow Mages before it was too late.
The Frog-Mage gathered a conclave of helpers, but it was soon
clear that they would not be able to succeed alone. The Mages
used their vast knowledge of genetic engineering and psychic
abilities to create new allies, in order to seek out the rest of their
kind. Together, they created the first Starhost. Each member of
a Starhost has their fate defined by the Frog-Mages at birth, and
they are created to fulfill this single mission in order to help the
Frog-Mages complete the prophecy. These missions define
much of the culture of the various species in each Starhost.
The first Starhost began to seek out and awaken other Mages.
The newly awakened Mages would create additional Starhosts in
order to fulfill their purpose, who would then create their own
Starhosts in order to seek out more of their kind throughout the
galaxy, including in the Sirius Sector. Much has changed in the
galaxy since the Saurians first entered the cyro-pyramids
however, and rediscovering the pyramids has proven a more
difficult task than expected. Some cryo-pyramids have been
destroyed by exploding stars or marauding treasure hunters,
others have been buried beneath deserts, oceans or even cities.
Worse still, some have begun to fail on their own, leaving the
Frog-Mages inside to die.
These setbacks have cast doubt on the reliability of the Frog-
Mages and their prophecies, while others are beginning to fear
that the Frog-Mages have already failed in their great prophecy.
How will you face your destiny?
