The Katrakhan are a rogue alien race that was formerly an empire expanding across a whole star cluster. They were led by a single dictator who enforced brutal laws. Eventually an uprising occurred known as the Katrakhan Revolt which left the entire empire in complete ruin, with their homeworld of Lurayun being completely scorched. Crime had escalated and the Katrakhan live in anarchy. They no longer operate as one race, but rather independentely as bounty hunters, mercenaries, or crime lords seeking to raid or find assignments from other empires. Katrakhan now roam the galaxy in search of cash, and there about 10 billion Katrakhan scattered across the whole galaxy.
