description: Already faster and more powerful than the last 17 species that they have eliminated or subjugated the Krall have set their sights on humankind.After testing humans on their future home world of Koban and finding them worthy opponents the Krall start a war of slow extermination with the rest of humanity. This war is intended to last generations as they apply their own version of natural selection to cull their weaker warriors in combat purifying the Krall gene pool with finest warriors for breeding.Why? The Krall desire to become powerful enough to eventually live on the world of Koban where the impossibly fast and powerful animals have proven to be too much for the Krall to master without technology to help. The only way the Krall survive on Koban is to live in isolated and well-protected domes safe from the fauna they fiercely desire to dominate. Only through the attrition of war will the Krall perfect their bloodline to become the masters of Koban.Before the Krall departed Koban to start their new war they destroyed the protections that allowed the Krall to survive on this dangerous planet. The Krall left the humans on the planet to fall victim to the high gravity to the fast and savage wildlife and its deadly predators. Big mistake. They should have killed the test animals themselves! The bio-scientist they left behind add Koban genes to the next generation of humans. They are becoming what the Krall sought to be.The humans on Koban locked in a struggle for their own survival return to the stars to help humanity fight and outnumbered take the war to the Krall.
