From deep within the Oort cloud come the Purists. Insane but calculating argonauts turned to the ex-human path by deep experimentation with the Watts McCleod strain of the Exsurgent virus. They come with drones and clones. Armies of bio-morph clones, perfected to be the pinnacle of soldiery. Completely obiedient and highly susceptible to the mental influences of their Purist masters. Unisex, drugged into frenzy and hell-bent on shedding blood the Purist faction seeks to dominate all within the Sol cluster. These are the Enlightened.
Along side the "Enlightened" purists come the mind-hacked infomorphs of the Hive. Driven to the proliferation of Singularity programming and the assimilation of TITAN source-code into their digital psyche the Hive launces forth with armies of drones and waves of nano-swarms. The combined knowledge of the Hive brings their technological advantage beyond the crux of current human understanding and their weird devices decimate all who deign to cross their path.
Both the Enlightened and the Hive share the goal of absolute conquest of the Sol cluster, and the brinkers alone are no match for the onslaught.
