Tenacious Bugs

The voribugs sounded simple at first. The tough little exospecies was a race of vermin that weren't intelligent but could be as challenging to fight as any other major race in the Red Ocean!

The reason for that was their high adaptability. They were pests that liked to eat organic and inorganic matter. They were also able to tolerate different environments and reproduced quickly.

When all of these traits and more combined in a single species, the result was a pest that could gnaw entire starships if given time to proliferate!

Though they could multiply to vast numbers if they found enough sustenance, they had not taken over the Red Ocean due to numerous limitations.

First, they were unable to traverse the stars. Their ability to move in space notwithstanding, no amount of mutation or morphing could allow them to replicate the insanely complicated functions of a warp drive!
