Galactic Civil War

The Galactic Civil War was a devastating galaxy-wide conflict between the Gremlin Republic and the lesser races that occurred over 300 years ago. The catalyst that ignited the war is unknown, but its effects persist to this day.

History
When the war started, The Gremlin Republic maintained a front against all of the lesser races, but focused their efforts against the Humans and the Vulpine. While the Vulpine were able to hold their ground for a time, the meager defenses mustered by the Humans proved to be little help against the Gremlin war machine. Their initial forces destroyed, the Humans could only watch helplessly as their homeworld of Tellus was obliterated. The Gremlins then moved their fleets out of Human space toward Vulpine territory.

Before the Gremlins could deal the final blow to the Vulpine, a newly-assembled and fully-antagonized Human fleet appeared in Vulpine space and routed the surprised Gremlins. With a major portion of their fleet destroyed, the Gremlins retreated. The Vulpine and Humans then formed a coalition and cut a bloody swath deep into Gremlin territory, eventually laying siege to the Gremlin homeworld of Docarro. The facts surrounding the events of the siege are few, but it is said that only the begging of the Vulpine Queen herself was able to stop the fury of the Human leader. With the Gremlin Senate dead at his feet and their government dissolved, Kalman Vass finally ended the war.
