Dilgar War

From The Great Machine

A war between the Dilgar and the League of Non-Aligned Worlds that occurred between 2230 and 2232.

In 2230, many of the League's members were invaded and subjugated by the Dilgar. Those worlds that were conquered by the Dilgar Warmaster Jha'Dur were subjected to sadistically inhumane experiments on the populations. This caused her to be given the name Deathwalker.

In 2231, after many attempts to reach a diplomatic solution between the two groups, the Earth Alliance declared war against the Dilgar and joined forces with the League. It was the first major interstellar war that involved humans.

The Dilgar were eventually driven back to their home world by this alliance. Three years after the war, the Dilgar race was nearly exterminated when their sun went nova. A civilian colony of Dilgar survived the super nova on the planet Planthos. They were exiled there by the Dilgar on planet Dilgar because they did not like war and would not fight. The entire House of Ados was exiled there. The leader of Planthos is E'Phraim of the House of Ados, the Baron of Planthos.
