The Pfhor

The Pfhor are an extraterrestrial ancient spacefaring race of alien slavers seeking to control the galaxy and perform numerous evil deeds in the games. The Pfhor are bipedal, somewhat taller than humans, have three red eyes and green skin, and come in a variety of classes and flavors.

The most basic variety is the Fighter, a lightly armored pfhor wielding a shock staff and, optionally, a projectile weapon. Fighters come in four flavors, in order of ascending rank and nastiness: Green, Purple, Orange, and Blue.

Troopers are heavily armored and pack automatic rifle/grenade launcher combo weapons. Troopers come also in Green and Purple flavors.

Hunters are the Pfhor assault troops. They wear very heavy armor and have shoulder-mounted energy cannons. They come in four flavors: Brown, Green, Purple and Blue.

Enforcers are the Pfhor MP's. They wear strange cloaks and possess alien shotgun weapons. They come in four multicolored flavors (?) plus Grey.

Juggernauts (aka Big Floaty Things what Kick our Asses) are Pfhor tanks.

These flying armored weapons platforms are like a mix of a tank and an attack helicopter, only bigger and badder. They fire dual homing RPG's as well as machineguns/alien shotgun bursts. They come in two flavors: Bad and Worse (Grey and Brown).

The Pfhor also utilize the 'Conditioned Ranks', or enslaved soldiers, who are forced to fight for the empire. Conquered races make up the majority of the conditioned ranks.

The S'pht

The S'pht are a race of alien cyborgs, created from F'lickta by the Jjaro to terraform Lh'owon. They were enslaved by the Pfhor c. 1810 A.D., and liberated en masse by Durandal and the unenslaved and technologically superior S'pht'Kr clan in 2811 A.D. The S'pht consist of extremely complex brains carried in flying cybernatic bodies. They are armed with some sort of built-in energy pulse weapon and some carry cloaking devices.

F'lickta

F'lickta are native creatures of Lh'owon, living in sewers, water pools, and lava. They are ancestors of the S'pht and often harass Pfhor forces. F'lickta have a simplified digestive system, absorbing nutrients from the sludge they live in, and are extremely irritable. Entering their home turf unarmed is not recommended.

The Jjaro

Little is known about the Jjaro, an extremely advanced species which disappeared from our galaxy millions of years ago, leaving much of their technology to fall into the hands of the Pfhor. The Jjaro are known to have possesed high-quality cyborg technology (such as that used to create the S'pht), a star-destroying weapon known as the Trih'Xeem, and the ability to fit enitire planets with warp drives (as used by the S'pht'Kr).
