Homebrew Xeln Drone Species Details
Xeln Drones are synthezoid beings created by the Xeln Dominion for the purpose of preserving the souls and memories of fallen soldiers in mechanical bodies. While the Xeln Dominion sees this as a continuation of a soldier's life, other factions view it as advanced artificial intelligence with the Xeln Dominion implanting brainwaves and thought patterns. Xeln Drones are designed for combat and have a strong connection to Xeln, the Goddess of War, whom the Xeln Dominion worships.
