Very little is known about the **Eldrae** or Elders, beside the fact they are the oldest civilisation in the known universe. The Elders appeared first to mediate between The United Nations of Earth and The Stratocracy of Slardini, managing a cease fire and later on forming The Interplanetary Coalition with them.

The Elders very strictly control their technology and are the only Coalition race that disallows any other faction from entering its borders. They hide their faces from beings they consider 'lesser' or 'not worthy', causing a certain mystique to form about them. Over time, several self-exiled or outcast Elders left their own systems and migrated to other worlds. From the worlds came rumours that undernearth their suits, Elders look a lot like humans. (More below in appearence). Many of the worlds these rumours from end up with unfortunate disasters after, with an almost guaranteed disappearance or passing of the outcast or exiled Elder.

Elders have 'Soul Stones', which hold their souls. If an Elder dies having an empty stone on them, their mind and soul transfer to the stone, this can then be put into a robot or even another persons body to let the soul take it over. These soul-enhanced robots act like humans and in seedier parts of Elder space is said to be used in illegal ways, to make slave robot bodies for people with specific needs.

## Biography

By judging just the suits they show themselves as, they are extrovagent and elegant people, with their suits beautifully made and decorated.

Undeath, unlike humans, Elder's are taller and thinner in build, yet surprisingly stronger. They have highly advanced hearing and eyesight, aswell as powerful physic abilities. Some Elder even claim to see into the future, yet this is not confirmed by IC sources.

They are pale in comparrison to humans, yet have the same kind of skin and the same kind of hair. Elder's have sharper faces and pointy, long ears. They seem to be practically immune to any form of disease and grow several thousand years old. Their fertility is somewhat lower than mankind's and is heavily controlled within their own systems, due to the extensive aging and fear of overpopulation.

Unlike humanity, it can be seen through their suits that they have only three long toes instead of five short ones. It is suggested this was done through bio-engineering, so they can use their feet as easily as as their hands to grab things, climb and more.

### Additional Notes

* The Elders are rumoured to be responsible for the attack on Titan of 2084, reportedly to 'find out how humanity would react', yet no uttering of these thoughts go out loud.
* Some theories suggest mankind was an experiment, due to the resemblance. Yet there are those who claim there was another ancient civilisation involved in this.
* It is said that the Elders only formed the Coalition in an attempt to keep the Ekxkun out, others say they also formed The Conglomerate, making two factions and seeing who would come out on top.
