Drath Freehold

Moving In The Shadows

The Drath represent a faction in Galactic Civilizations IV. They are led by Embryes Draken.

Mysterious creatures who love to move in the shadows, the Drath are masters of subterfuge and manipulation. Rumored to be behind every major conflict in the galaxy, it is possible they spread some of these rumors themselves.

The Drath have bonuses to diplomatic and economic skills but are hampered with a slow natural birth-rate.

History

Enigmatic and manipulative, the Drath are marked by their unique and mysterious hatred for the Altarians. The Drath claim to have originated on, and be the true owners of, the planet Altar, though few who have heard the claim can see how that's possible. What is known is that they are clever and manipulative. Not aggressive by nature, and possessing a naturally slow growth rate, the Drath are not prone to wide expansion. They make up for this with exceedingly, even suspiciously high diplomatic and economic skills.
