Festron Hunt

The Twilight Hunt

The Festron represent a faction in Galactic Civilizations IV. They are led by Gnar Nightbringer.

Of the dozens of sentient species that evolved on the Festron homeworld, only the Festron remain. This was not an accident; the Festron view other species as little more than hosts for their eggs.

Festron are a strong and aggressive species, tolerant of war and quick to brave the dangers of space. It will be difficult to reap the advantages of the citizens from multiple species, as the Festron will kill and replace them.

History

While other species search for idyllic worlds on which to grow and thrive, the Festron prefer worlds that are already occupied. They see other sentient species as prey to be hunted, and hosts for their larvae. The Festron take an extraordinarily long view of this activity, and have been known to drop lone individuals onto worlds to spend generations lurking and hunting the local population. Some are rumored to have even reached as far as Earth. Bottom line: there is no sharing worlds with the Festron.
