Armor Hunters

The Armor Hunters were a paramilitary organization dedicated to hunting the Armors in order to save the universe. While having noble intentions, the actions of the Hunters spoke otherwise. They were an army of killers driven to fanaticism in wiping out not just their sworn prey but any race, planet, culture contaminated by the Armors.

History[]

The Armor Hunters were founded by the mysterious alien Control on Gennin, the original planet in which spawned the Armors. Control recruited various warriors from across the universe to his cause, most survivors from worlds scourged by the alien menace.

Control recruited Primary and his comrade Magnum to form a squad to hunt down Armors in deep space. While the Hunters managed to neutralize and hunt every Armor they came across and also wipe away life to prevent further contamination, the worlds previously held by the slain Armors grew new ones. The Armors eventually tracked the source of their attempted genocide to Gennin where they slaughtered every Hunter.

However in an act of spite, Control unleashed Death Hand, a planet sized monstrosity that would wipe entire systems by causing solar flares to prevent infection.

Death Hand’s existence was known to the Armors, and they sent out a warning through their collective mind to the rest of their kind. It eventually reached the homeworld of the Vine, Loam. Auric despite his efforts was unable to save the world though managed to save a portion of the inhabitants. Realizing the threat of the machine planet, Auric called forth a congress of the Armors to battle Death Hand. Many of the Armors were reluctant to intervene as they saw Death Hand as an avoidable threat to them as they could simply find another planet to call home. Though they were convinced by Auric that Death Hand was indeed a threat that they could not ignore and rallied behind him as their king to destroy the last legacy of the Armor Hunters.
