Veer

The Veer (Monstris arcanis), colloquially known as the Shifters, are a naturally evolved species of cold blooded, intelligent, and bipedal humanoids. Native to the terrestrial planet Infidas, they boast societal infrastructure, and, biologically, they are much more advanced than any known living species, with the exception of the .
Commonly thought to be the result of Forerunner experimentation, the Veer are vastly different from previously encountered extraterrestrial races. Their populace consists of approximately twelve biological castes, each with a varying quantity of unique genders.
The Veer made first contact with another race, known as the Zafar, in 2568; the ensuing conflict left the Zafar in desolate ruins, with fewer than a billion refugees scattered across dozens of devastated worlds. Later, in 2666, an Infidasic dreadnought, later discovered to be the Life Anchor, located and destroyed a UNSC colony world. With this action, the Veer entered the Galactic War. Their tenacity and utter technological superiority would force the other warring groups into a single alliance, colloquially known as the Orion Confederacy.
