Industrialized

The "Industrialized" as they are called by other races, are a people who are currently experiencing a major revolution in their society. Technology is quickly advancing, and they are expanding on to new territories. This brought them in conflict with the Qwanari, who saw it as an invasion upon their ancient lands. This conflict ascended into a battle with great losses to the Qwanari who fled to the west.

A region of their people was recently struck by a disastrous event. A giant red crystal fell from the sky, devastating the region. Within a few days the crystal started to glow and emanate a deep red light. The people who were staying near it were changed: their flesh turned to crystal, hard and solid, but they kept on living. Now they are a strange combination between living organic beings and solidified crystal, and they have come to be called Crystals.
