Today we finish up the initial four factions of Dropzone Commander with a discussion of the Shaltari Tribes. We will return to humanity next time with an article on the Resistance, but for now our focus turns to the stars far from Earth…
The Shaltari Tribes are the ancient, distant, and often cold alien entity in the Dropzone universe. They have technology that is largely unfathomable to the humans they face in battle, and their motives are no less complex and convoluted. Their race is fragmented into what are colloquially known as tribes. Maddeningly for the humans that deal with them, a tribe is just as likely to be overtly hostile as it is to be friendly, and their actions can run the full gamut between these extremes. As a result, humanity must treat each encounter with these aliens with suspicion at the very least.
