Drelitsh

: "These relentless little demons seem driven by desperation and rage. They are crafty, but they usually give up their cover with their clattering and inane hissing. Most seem outfitted with some kind of dagger and pistol, and as far as we can gather, they seem to only have two arms, while the others of their mutated ilk have four."
: — Martian Sovereignty Drelitsh description.
Drelitsh are the lowest-ranking class of Elkiedai warrior and cling to the bottom rung of Thorcennae society.

: "Don't underestimate a cutthroat, else you'll get your throat cut."
: — Grimoire description.
Less disciplined than Vudralli or Triyadai, they often give away their position with their chattering. They are typically armed with a Pulse Dagger or two, Pulse Pistol, and Shock Grenade. And are rarely if ever armed with a Blitz Launcher.
Because of their lowly rank, Drelitsh have two arms, whereas other higher ranks of Thorcennae have four. This is because they have had the lower set cut off as part of a ritual of humiliation and obedience. Therefore the Drelitsh seek to prove their worth through selfless and suicidal aggression. Only a few will survive to gain promotion and the allowance to regrow their limbs. Their suicidal bravery is fueled by ambition and shame. 
They are also kept motivated by the myth of the "star-catcher", a fictional Drelitsh who rose to claim ten thousand stars with ten thousand arms.
It's not unheard of for higher-ranking Elkiedai to be demoted to Drelitsh if they have failed their superiors in some way, if they are not killed outright.
Dregs are often seen as cannon fodder to the enemies of the Houses. They are fielded in large groups and sent forth to catch the ire of enemy fire, or overwhelm them with their superior and suicidal numbers. They almost always are in use of a Pulse Pistol paired with a Pulse Dagger, both not powerful weapons, but extremely deadly in large numbers. 
They are also equipped with Elkiedai Pattern Shock Grenades they use to drive enemies out of cover. Rarely they are given Blitz Launchers, and high ranking ones sometimes have Wrist Mounted Molten Welders. Sometimes they also go into battle with paired Pulse Daggers, in which case they will rush their enemy to slice them through.
