Beautiful, cunning, deadly. These are the three most prominant traits of the Hydorans, an incredibly ancient race of unheard of skill in several arts, including that of war. For hundreds of thousands of years, the Hydorans have secretly wandered the galaxy looking for new worlds to colonize and assimilate peacefully into their empire which now numbers upwards of several hundred systems spread acros the galaxy in small pockets.
Hydorans normally stand between two and three meters tall, have incredibly elegant and beautiful forms and exuberate an air of authority and mastery unique only to them. They are a peaceful race, masters of many fine arts. This skill has served their financial needs in secret, using unknown titles to secure finances legally. Several Jedi and Sith have attempted to locate the source of these 'phantom sources', but all have failed or simply given up, seeing it as unimportant.
Towards the fall of their omnipotently powerful inter-galactic civilization, they Hydorans became struck by an unknown lague which was quickly wiping them out. Hydroan scientists attempted to find a cure for this terrible plague and, using their superior knowledge of sicences, created Nx. For some time, it cured the Hydorans and their numbers began to recover.
Then, one day, a female Hydoran by the name of Sr'ien'a T'ep'ulv'u began seeing visions and hear whispers across space and time. These events caused the Nx inside her body to begin to take control of her, eventually driving her into madness. After living a life in exile away from her people, Sr'ien'a was compelled by the Nx to begin a movement that would awaken the Nx, increasing its influence and furthering its quest for infinite knowledge.
It quickly gained ground and eventually, the Hydorans were torn apart by civil war. Those not yet affected by the Nx were hunted down quickly and assimilated until only a handful of Hydorans not tainted by the Nx remained. Of this handful was Suv'id'era Sn'im'or'ep, the ruler of the Hydoran people. In an effort to escape as the Nx forces neared his planet, Suv'id'era constructed three ships in which he and two of his closest advisors could escape in and take with them the records and secrets of their people. But before they could escape, the Nx attacked and Suv'id'era was assimilated, along with his two advisors. Learning of the three ships he had constructed, the Nx quickly assimilated them, gathering the knowledge stored within their hulls.
The Nx decided to use the three ships to scour the universe in search of knowledge to assimilate. So, after the Nx stripped the Hydoran homeworld of all its knowledge, they ventured across the universe. As time passed, the ships began to become affected by the Nx and developed the unique and incredible ability to absorb anything containing knowledge, whether it be organic or mechanical. The Nx-afflicted Hydorans also developed the ability to release pheremones which unleashed any hidden emotions or memories and direct them at the Hydoran as their bodies and genetic structures grew accustomed to the Nx. This, however, took away their force sensetivity.
It has also become apparent that the Nx has also developed and evolved as it gather knowledge from across the universe, slowly becoming a sentient being. It has been referred to by ts followers as Nexxum. His followers, being promised by Nexxum to be given power beyond comprehension, continue to scour the universe to assimilate knowledge so Nexxum may grow in power and become physical to take over the universe.
One of the three ships, known as the Nexxum, has stumbled upon a galaxy absolutely rich in knowledge which has sparked Nexxum's interest like none before it; this galaxy. The ship has been spotted once or twice in different locations, being described as a massive, drifting hulk with uncountable protrusions similar in design to alien vessels all over its surface, but it dissappeared before anyone could truly get close to it. This new menace has sparked many rumors across the galaxy, but everyone is oblivious to its true intentions.
