  • In the year 1 CE the salarians opened a dormant mass relay in an attempt to further explore and colonize the galaxy. The relay led to space controled by a previously undiscovered race, the Rachni.

  • The rachni were a race of intelligent insect governed by a hive-mind. The rachni captured the salarian exploration ships and used reverse engineering to develop mass effect technology of their own.

  • The rachni poured through from their home system and ruthlessly attacked the Citadel races. Negotiation was impossible. The rachni couldn't be communicated with. Vicious war raged for 80 years.

  • In the midst of war the salarians made first contact with the primitive krogan dying from a self inflicted nuclear winter. The salarians, impressing with new technology, uplifted them as tools of war.

  • The krogan evolved to live in the harsh environment of Tuchanka, able to land on the toxic rachni worlds, fight their way through the rachni's underground lairs, and kill the queens & their eggs.

  • For more than two centuries the krogan turned the tide of the Rachni Wars, systematically destroying the rachni. At last the krogan chased them to their homeplanet Suen. The rachni didn't surrender.

  • The krogan's were brutal. They started by bombarding the rachni surface cities. When the rachni retreated to their underground tunnels, the krogan followed, detonating WMD that disfigured the planet.

  • By the Citadel Conventions, the Council would have normally objected to the krogan's tactics, but after centuries of fighting, eradicating the rachni seemed to be the only way to end the Rachni Wars.

    Played
  • In 300 CE the rachni were officially declared extinct and the Rachni War, the Citadel Race's first galactic war came to an end. A listening post was left by the rachni relay to monitor the system.

    Played
  • As a reward, the krogan were granted several recaptured rachni planets to colonize and a krogan statue was erected on the Presidium. The krogan were given an embassy and an ambassador was appointed.

    Played
  • The Council then declared new policies that forbade any race from activating a dormant mass relay for fear that it would connect to another hostile race that would plunge the galaxy in war once again.

  • Wonderful stuff, yet again.
