Biology:
Nothing is natural about Hyparxians, in fact many would consider them abominations. Grown in a lab by Ratrizar Scientists and designed only to wreck havoc and chaos on enemy lines, they were intended to be the perfect soldiers. With DNA from various species, they are immensely strong, nearly on par with Abutan's, capable of regrowing limbs that have been lost, spend long periods of time submerged in water and perhaps notably, being an all male species, reproduce with any humanoid species. Hyparxian reproduction is efficient, with an almost any species they mate with being impregnated, these pregnancies only last between 2-4 weeks before birthing pure Hyparxians, with the whelps maturing within 2 years thanks to their accelerated aging. This however can cause longevitiy issues, with the average Hyparxian living no more than 30 years, thus routine acquisitions of new humanoids is required to replace their numbers is a high priority.
Unruly, irritable and dangerous at the best of times, they are often rowdy at the bars they frequent and have insatiable appetites. While seemingly appearing stupid, they are notoriously cunning, and those who underestimate Hyparxians have often met their end with a large boot on their neck.
History:
As the war of the Brussaki liberation between the Ratrizar Empire and the United Coalition began to sway towards a Coaltion Victory, new ideas were needed in the Ratrizar Military high-command about how to turn the tide and secure their win. With heavy losses and their slave legions running low on Abutans, the approval of creating a ''temporary'' solider to replace their ranks was given the green light, their scientists getting to work. After several months of fusing the various DNA sequences of multiple species together, the R&D of Ratrizar unveiled their newest creation. Tall, strong and deadly, Hyparxians were to be the answer to Ratrizar's growing losses. After a brief period of training the first generation, they were deployed to the front lines where initially they seemed to be successful, proving a match for the UC's advanced weaponry and tactics with sheer overwhelming numbers. However, a flaw in their design, not initially picked up on due to the hasty training was discovered. The Hyparxians were not as obedient as initially thought. If their commanding officers, were to show even the slightest weakness, uncertainty or even hesitate, they would find the Hyparxians in revolt, these revolts began to increase in frequency as more and more Hyparxians resisted their master's orders. They were determined to follow only the strongest, and viewed their creators as unworthy of their respect.
With these revolts and cunning UC strategy, the war for the Brussaki was all but lost. Humiliated and angered at their expensive failures, the Hyparxian race was ordered for extermination by the ruling elite who deemed them ''Abominations.'' While many were culled, several prison ships containing Hyparxians en-route to their demise were hijacked and commandeered, vanishing into space where these rogues would establish themselves as pirates. Over the years, their numbers spread, causing havoc in the galaxy across all worlds and factions unlucky enough to fall into their traps. Though some have integrated well enough on some worlds, independent Hyparxians remain a dangerous threat within the Expanse Sector, with some world's implementing bans and shoot-on-sight commands when faced with potential Hyparxian gangs landing on their worlds for a pit stop.
