Solvendari

During the war of refinement the Solvendari met humanity for the first time. This unfortunately was after their encounter with the Tuleons both the separatists and their actual empire. Needless to say it didn't go well, Centuries of protecting the border of their growing Galactic empire had made them terribly xenophobic. If it wasn't for the aid of the Care-Takers and the introduction of Mancers and Superhumans, aiding in Space and ground warfare respectfully. Humanity wouldn't have been able to put up a fight as the Solvendari are highly intelligent, sport grand power armor and boast natural Spiritual abilities which only get stronger with the introduction of radiation into their system which their bodies don't seem to take nearly as much damage from. Sunlight is the most common form of this. Many Solvendari sunbathe to feel enlightened as they are one with the universe.
