The Progenitors are a hostile, hyper-advanced race of spacing faring aliens, believed to have originated from outside of the Milky Way.

History

The Progenitors first made their debut within the Milky Way galaxy during the summer of 2297, when their Ark was first detected by gravimetric sensors roughly 30kly north west of Klendathu making their way counter clockwise along the length of the Outer Rim. Due to the massive size of the ship, it was assumed to be a near passing asteroid and not much thought was given to it.

FRONTIER COLONIES GO SILENT

The Citizen's Herald - August 14, 2297

Sources within Federal military intelligence today confirmed that the Federation has lost contact with three further frontier colonies - 3484 Indi VII, 2393 Dou Xiu VII, and Tevi Prime - following reports earlier this week that two other colonies on the cusp of the Epsilon Eridani systems had been lost to the Skinny threat last week. Whilst 3484 Indi, 2393 Dou Xiu and the two other colonies all numbered less than a thousand people, the attack on Tevi Prime - a much more significant colony that had a permanent Mobile Infantry garrison and some 22,000 members - is a source of significant concern within Military Intelligence circles, as it suggests that the enemy may be becoming emboldened. Sky Marshal John Hudson could not be reached for comment.

The first interactions between the Progenitors and humanity occurred during the month of August, where several frontier colonies including Tevi Prime and some satellite colonies of the Epsilon Eridani system were abducted from their planet.
