Upon seeing their natural appearance many people reacted accordingly. By killing them without mercy, even if the Thoraxian was apart of there family.The Genocide of the Their people began. Soon after to save themselves The Thoraxians made allies of the Vampires forming not the strongest front line army but one of the strongest Spy Networks never seen.     It took years for their name to be cleared, but the damage was done, between the Scourge Beast, the other races, and some unknown force now known as the Creeper. the once vibrant Thoraxians race had been pushed to the brink of extinction.   In a last ditch effort to save themselves with the aid of the vampires, they were able to conjugate to an abandoned dwarf city deep inside the Decrepit Mountain and there Kingdom is now only known as The Colony. Which holds a strict hierarchy, to preserve there people from succumbing to the outside world.
