HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Cultivated by Rellik in secret illegal transfers of some Zakkeg from Dxun to Taspir 3, they were taken to the molten surface and transformed through ritual and alchemy into new secret weapons of the Diarchy. The Vurskorr was designed to break through planetary defenses
The alchemical process was grueling, prospects failed either combusting during activation or turning on their creators. The final surviving beast, codenamed "Ashborn Alpha," was used to begin the template and cloning process of the others. Containment is often the greatest challenge, without a strong Dark Side presence to maintain control, most go berserk and burn out in their own fury.
