Power Morp

Power Morps were originally created by [Tordronites for sure, but faction responsible not finalised, probably a small empire that ended up under pressure from trennidoic empire] as a race of bio-engineered warriors. Microdrones monitor their lives. When a Power Morp dies, the drones will collect DNA from the corpse and use it to create the next iteration. The reconstruction algorithms include occasional random variations on the sample DNA, in order to enhance between morp generations. The more success a morp has in battle, the more their DNA is used to create new morps.

The gradual intensification of the Rift War left the Tordronite bases in the region undermanned. The artificial evolution of the power morps led them to develop culture and intelligence, against the will of the creators. The central control hub for the machinery that kept track Morpkind's development was besieged and captured before the Tordronites could shut things down. Since then Power Morps have existed as an independent and united species at war with Tordronites.
