	This year marks the arrival of the Lii'dra to the civilized portion of the Orion Spur, hot on the trail of their enemies' respective ships. Having been following them for quite some time, probes were sent out to determine just what had been encountered. Upon learning of the various nations of the Spur, it is presumed that the Lii'dra decided to lie low, finding barren planets to lie in wait on, slowly building themselves back up after their extremely long and unforgiving journey. It is unknown how many Lii'dra hiveships are currently in the Spur.

	On 08/21/~~2458~~, the Lii'dra made their first act of aggression in the Orion Spur against a non-vaurca entity. A Lii'dra hiveship had been found approaching the Cairo United star system inside the Serene Republic of Elyra, with hostilities occurring soon after. This invasion, in contrast to the Tau Ceti incident, was much longer, persisting for over two weeks before the Lii'dra lesser queen present perished, forcing a major disruption in the hivenet system of the Lii'dra and causing a full pullback, though fighting pursued for a week thereafter before the conflict was officially considered ‘over'. A memorial was constructed on Bursa commemorating the fallen in this conflict, and this invasion resulted in the overall resentment of Vaurca in the Serene Republic and the creation of various anti-Vaurca weaponry.

It is unknown what they intend for the rest of the factions, but it can be assumed to be violent in nature.

	After a relentless barrage of questions regarding the Lii’dra’s next project, VR having been a massive success that helped the Lii’dra hive grow exponentially at a rate rarely ever seen before, the representatives of the hive began their presentation. They revealed that their studies have led to further breakthroughs in the technology behind Virtual Reality. It was revealed that they had, somehow, managed to find a way to transmit not just sensory information, but thought itself, through VR in a way no other hive has possessed since. The ambassadors go into great detail explaining to an increasingly silent Court into how this remarkable breakthrough would be the last step towards unifying the species, as when linked through VR, individual thought ceases to be. All who connect will become a part of the whole and the Vaurca will become a singularity intelligence. In addition, it was revealed that they had already taken the liberty of putting their theory to the test, and the Lii’dra by this time had already assimilated several small, seemingly nameless hives into the collective, at the horror of the other Queens present.

	Having finished their presentation, the ambassadors had expected applause and agreement, but what they had received instead was hostility and anger. The Court very quickly became a mess of voices discussing what the Lii’dra had done, almost none of said voices being in agreement with the newly formed hivemind. The recording ends with the ambassadors being ejected from the Court’s chamber and the Queens speaking in hushed tones. It is believed that the ~~First~~ Hive War began shortly after this event with Xtykt'lotec, a large city hosting a technology summit, being seized by the Lii’dra.

	This year marks the end of the ~~First~~ Hive War with the historic capital and seat of the Lii’dra hive, Illuau'tia, being destroyed after a very prolonged and costly battle. At this point, around 80 percent of the Vaurcesian population had been slain or assimilated into the Lii’dra hivemind, and the Lii’dra were forced to forgo their offensive and go into hiding to survive, now a shadow of their former splendor. This ultimately ended up working in their favor, as most of the planet was recently made vacant, and the Hive easily began to recuperate as the others struggled to bounce back, leading to a significant Lii’dra presence on Sedantis once again by the time the Great Evacuation had occurred, which also coincidentally led to the Lii’dra being vastly superior both numbers and technology wise to any one of the hives alone. The colossal loss of life in the conflict is believed to be one of the driving forces behind the current idea of the Vaurca afterlife, with advances in VR technology still being pursued despite the already unprecedented costs.

	The Lii’dra are the fourth Vaurca hive making their home in the Orion Spur and are, by far, the most resented of the four. They are considered extremely hostile, inconsiderate of other groups, and a threat to sentient life as a whole. This is due in part to a few reasons, all of which will be discussed on this page.		The Lii’dra are the fourth Vaurca hive making their home in the Orion Spur and are, by far, the most resented of the four. They are considered extremely hostile, inconsiderate of other groups, and a threat to sentient life as a whole. This is due in part to a few reasons, all of which will be discussed on this page.

	Unlike the main three hives, the Lii’dra are a true hivemind. This means they think and act as one being instead of a group of many individuals, and are for all intents and purposes more or less the same creature, their consciousnesses linked in VR until death. In addition, it is well known that they have zero regard for the lives of other groups of living beings, and are typically killed on sight, assuming they are ever found to begin with. The only brood currently actively seeking groups of Lii’dra out is [[~~Ta’Akaix’Vedhra’rept’ylanze~~, Princess of Configurations]]’ brood, who are tasked with the destruction of the hive and pursue this goal fervorously.

	Outside of this information, little is known about the hive outside of Zo’rane archives and data gathered during the Invasion. Most Vaurca are reluctant to ever discuss the hive, and will always regard them with resentment, seeming to only describe them with the foulest terms. What is known, however, is the general history of how the hive came to be what it is today, through collections of recordings and other such archived data as well as how they tend to operate to achieve their goals.

	The date 08/18/2460 marks the beginning of the Lii’dra invasion of Tau Ceti. The attack begins with a colossal signal appearing next to New Gibson - A Lii’dra ~~hiveship~~. The Lii’dra immediately invaded New Gibson shortly after, sending the entire system into a state of emergency as the government struggled to respond to the sheer numbers of the aggressors. Curiously enough, it was fairly obvious that the Lii’dra were actually targeting infrastructure and buildings with their main attack force, and were intentionally letting living targets flee - so long as there was something else to blow up that is.

Curiously enough, it was fairly obvious that the Lii’dra were actually targeting infrastructure and buildings with their main attack force, and were intentionally letting living targets flee - so long as there was something else to blow up that is.

	Unfortunately, there was still a massive loss of life due to their deployment of their most deadly bioweapon, Black K’ois. It spread like a virus, appearing in a very large amount of biodomes throughout the planet, killing swathes of people and even turning some into zombie-like aggressors.		Unfortunately, there was still a massive loss of life due to their deployment of their most deadly bioweapon, Black K’ois. It spread like a virus, appearing in a very large amount of biodomes throughout the planet, killing swathes of people and even turning some into zombie-like aggressors.

	Shortly after, a number of groups nearby came to the young Republic’s aid. A few were obvious, such as Hive Zo’ra and NanoTrasen who were the main defence force against the Lii’dra. However one group in particular made an unexpected appearance, the solely synthetic society ‘Purpose’. Normally reclusive, the reason for Purpose giving aid is still in question, but their help was greatly appreciated as they dealt massive damage to the main Lii’dra ~~hiveship~~.

Normally reclusive, the reason for Purpose giving aid is still in question, but their help was greatly appreciated as they dealt massive damage to the main Lii’dra carrier.

	A few days of intense fighting passed, with most of the actual casualties on the Republic’s side resulting from the Black K’ois rather than the actual warriors. During this time an intense space battle raged above Biesel, with the center ship being the colossal ~~hiveship~~ of the Lii’dra. The vessel was, eventually, struck down, due largely in part to the use of Zo’rane Thermal Lances and a Purpose ship ramming directly into the behemoth for unknown reasons. The ship crash landed into Severson’s Rift, with various chunks of the alien craft washing ashore every so often, even after years of scuba divers seeking them out.

	With all of the above information, only one question really remains. What have the Lii’dra been doing? The hive as a whole has gone completely dark (at least from the Spur’s eyes) since the failed invasion of Tau Ceti, and it is assumed that the Hive either broke apart completely due to their losses being far too great, or they have been taking the past few years to recuperate and prepare for their next move.

	There is evidence that the Lii’dra had at least ~~two different hiveships~~ present, with the attack on Elyra and the attack on Biesel believed to be orchestrated by two different ships, and it is unknown if there are any more beyond those two, one having not been destroyed at all.		There is evidence that the Lii’dra had at least one hiveship present, with the attack on Elyra and the attack on Biesel believed to be orchestrated by two different ships, one being the hiveship in Elyra, and a much smaller carrier in Biesel, and it is unknown if there are any more beyond those two, one having not been destroyed at all.

	Over time, other events in the galaxy have turned the majority of the Spur’s attention away from the Lii’dra, leading to a relative lack of care into what they are doing, with the general consensus being that the Lii’dra incurred far too many losses to recover.
