Isolated, dangerously territorial, and related to unique breed of insect, the Aturor occupy a small stretch of space called the "Sateda" domain. There is no such thing as "inside the Sateda domain" known to humanity and alien alike, although deep scans show their crafts make rotations on the various planets of their sector as if nomadic and tribal in nature. Their people are said to be quite resilient, living multiple centuries although lacking proper FLT capabilities and food to make long journeys. Peaceful interactions with their population is mainly trade, commonly wanting energy storage devices and generators, embryonic cells, and metal scrap. As payment the Aturor usually trade their organically based energy weapons, rare agricultural products, and narcotics.

The Aturor Fleets

The Aturor Aturorfleetsmall

Aturor Dreadnoughts--
An artificially grown creature, the Aturor battleships possess zero shielding but incredibly dense "skins." The skin of the battleships compares in strength to the element iridium, allowing the creature to withstand the perils of space with extreme endurance. To defend itself from threats, as well as unleash a hellish assault on targets with devastating bombardment, the battleships have incorporated dozens of energy weapon arrays that fire in bolt-like fashion. The entire creature is dependent on energy crystals equivalent to fuel capacitors, the limited power supply keeps the creature at its current state. With more powerful energy generation, these creatures can become near unstoppable.

Aturor Cruiser--
A third less in size compared to the Aturor battleship, the Dreadnoughts match armor, but lose the same bombardment capabilities while doubling their "Dart" fighter capacity to fifty from twenty-five. Each "Dart" being packed in honeycomb like structures to conserve space. By shifting the power reserves, the Dreadnoughts can match battleships by cannibalizing their fighters for energy.

Aturor Transports--
Stored inside each battleship and dreadnought, these transports are centered around energy efficiency and are kept independent of main systems to avoid energy cannibalism. Their efficiency is focused for armor, speed, and jump capabilities to get key Aturor fleet members out of harms way, fast.

Aturor "Dart" Fighters--
Quick, powerful, and noisy in atmosphere, the Dart makes its name for pinpoint dog-fighting and attack runs. It is launched in swarms to swamp enemy fighters and bombers. At the same time they are mobile kamikazes to take down missiles and ships alike.
