Wei'virs

The Wei'virs are a (usually) octopoid-esque species which inhabit(Likely not native) the Wei'vir Starcluster, a nebula beyond the galactic disk located in Unknown Space. It is said that the Wei'virs, also known as the "Forgers of the Cosmos" hold unknowable cosmic knowledge and a vast ancient past.
== Capabilities ==
Wei'virs are capable of various incredible feats, most notably including the power to create, shape, and manipulate cosmic forces and energies to produce nearly any effect they desire. Examples of this include the manipulation of matter, energies and even the fabric of reality across space-time. Other capabilities they have include things such as the creations of forcefields and portals, psionics, generating energy and a some degree of awareness of the ongoings of the universe as a whole. Them having such vast capabilities is primarily attributed to their connection to the Elder Overseers, sharing many similar abilities. 
== History ==
===Glimpses of Existance===
When existence first began, the Wei'virs were created by one of the earliest Elder Gods of cosmic history. They designed to forge the cosmos itself and grant it life, and were thus tasked with replicating and melding the universe into something more. Thanks to these initial deeds several ancient cultures and faiths venerate the Wei'virs as gods, even if they do not use their true name. 
During their task the Wei'virs created countless stars and planets across the cosmos, slowly bringing the whole universe to life. After their job was complete, generations of Elder Gods came and went, each born into the bountiful universe the Wei'virs had crafted for them. The Wei'virs were slowly forgotten, fading into legend and mythos.
While it is unknown how true this supposed origin story is, the abilities of the Wei'virs certainly point towards some degree of truth in these statements.
=== Creation of a homeworld ===
They however persisted, created a world of their own off the edge of the Milky Way galaxy, this planet became known as Wei'vir. On this world they formed a society, and their own culture. They preferred isolation, as they did not want to get involved with the chaos of the galaxy, only leaving their world to repair tears in the spacetime continuum they had forged. Their attempts at isolation was so effective, that the The High Priest]] had no idea of their origins when he found them.
===The Silent Coup===
As the High Priest reached the planet, he was unaware of their vast history or knowledge. He only saw the Wei'virs of the planet to be an useful asset in his army due to their power, but little did he know they were much older and wiser than even him. Nearly instantly he was surrounded and captured by the Wei'virs, he raged, trying to breach this prison. Surprisingly enough, once he calmed and took a closer look the Wei'virs were not so much different from himself, featuring very similar characteristics. Upon this discovery, he decided that perhaps it would be wise to converse with these beings rather than subdue them.
He decided to explain his reasonings of conquest to these clearly wise beings, telling them about the corrupt Elder Gods and how he had been mistreated by them, explaining how he was gathering powerful races amongst the cosmos to engage in battle against them, and that the ones he had visited before were indeed worthy to join his army.
The Wei'virs did not care though, seeing through his half truths. They were an moment away from erasing his existence, yet they hesitated. Even if the High Priest was devious and treacherous, his proposal still offered them something they had always craved. They agreed that the Elder Gods had not treated the universe they forged good enough, and even if the High Priest's goals were corrupt, they were still a goal, one they could work towards. Even if the High Priest was worse, they knew now that they could overpower him if necessary. They could re-forge the universe in a new image, a better image, one without the corrupting brought from the Elder Gods' machinations. None of these plans were shared with the high priest though, since the Wei'virs were even more conniving and intelligent than even him. In the end, the Wei'virs decided to willingly join the Celestial Army, and let the High Priest believe he had subjugated them.
As in his other conquests, the High Priest decided to modify some of the Wei'virs to become more powerful and to more fit his image, as he had already done to the Solaryans and Vorxans. However, unbeknownst to the High Priest, the Wei'virs were not the only ones who were modified. The High Priest himself was modified, injecting a part of the Wei'virs' Consciousness into him, growing overtime and spreading throughout his mind as he directed them to create weapons of war. It even reached the essence of the Vorxan Matriarch, and promised her that once their new reality had come she and her people would have a place in it, securing themselves even more power. Now that all had been settled, once the High Priest's time had come to an end, a far greater threat may be unleashed on the universe, but for now the Wei'virs plans and influence lays dormant, allowing the High Priest to continue with his plans as they schemed in the shadows.
