Taurum

BROTHERHOOD OF METAL

When the now-extinct planet Mystral IV was colonized by the feared Arwak mercenaries, the Taurum had no other option than to abandon their home and seek refuge in the unpleasant lands of Vaenion X.

Guided by their leader Gorgoth, a 7 foot tall colossal being with robust arms as hard as steel, they established themselves in the Ardens rocky mountains, an area desolated due to its high radioactivity that covers the western part of the planet.

It seems that because of an anomaly in their DNA, the Taurum are immune to the radioactivity that comes out from beneath the mountains. With their beastly strength, they carved colossal caves beneath the mountains. It was there they found an abundance of metal which can be used to build countless artifacts and structures. In the depths of the mountains, where the radioactivity is too intense for the Taurum to access, MRP-666 are chosen to look after the mining of metal, being bionic troops with extremely advanced artificial intelligence that are capable of crafting small drones like the Buti-3000. As the creators of the MRP-666, the Taurum are in charge of their upkeep for optimal performance.

Being experts in the art of mining, the Taurum used their advanced technology to build an extensive network of galleries under the mountains to exploit its riches, loading the metal onto powerful ships to be brought to the surface. They are the only race in the planet capable of enduring radiation, leaving the mountains only to trade big amounts of metal in exchange for goods to supply their colony.
