Amaxine warriors

The Amaxine warriors were supposedly a warrior people that dated back to the dawn of the Galactic Republic. Instead of using currency, the Amaxine warriors traded weapons for goods and services. In approximately 1022 BBY, the Amaxine warriors defected from their government and disappeared from the known galaxy; it was believed that at some point the warriors left the galaxy, in search of another. Long after the Amaxines' disappearance, a paramilitary organization active during the New Republic Era named themselves after the ancient warriors.
==Description==
Amaxine technology was sophisticated and capable of surviving centuries after first being built. Their space stations had ports for their uniquely shaped starships, and the stations were also equipped with a mechanism for dispensing hyperspace capable pods. The pods could be launched great distances across the galaxy, and allowed for precise reconnaissance or sabotage of a target. This, in fact, earned the Amaxine scouts a reputation of almost appearing out of thin air and signaling their troops to attack. One such space station was located around an unknown star that, by the time of the High Republic, was close to dying, though the station itself was intact. However, its pod system was sabotaged by Reath Silas to prevent the Drengir and the Nihil access to it.

They built a relay point for their hyperspace pods to land on an unknown world occupied by the sentient race and intended to make war on them. However, the Drengir fought back and were able to defeat and then devour them. Around 1022 BBY, the Amaxine warriors defected from their organized government and vanished from the galaxy at large. According to legend, their reason for doing so was a refusal to make peace with the Old Republic. Unable to defeat such a powerful foe, they departed the known galaxy for another one to search for another war to fight.
===Legacy===
During the High Republic Era, an Amaxine space station located in a star system centered by a dying star was used by the Byne Guild as a waypoint for its indentured pilots. The station was later used as a shelter by multiple starships waylaid by the Great Hyperspace Disaster.
During the New Republic Era, a paramilitary organization commanded by Arliz Hadrassian and allied with the secretive First Order named itself after the Amaxines.
