the hunters

[GhostByte]

basicly they are why the Prethoryn Swarm came to your galaxy and invaded. the story is they are fleeing the hunters and the hunters will follow them. you can only find that out if you are Psionic. here is the link http://www.stellariswiki.com/Crisis go down to Psionic Species. will the hunters be added at some point or is it just for backstory

[GhostByte]

i hope they add one involving a disease or something. maybe the faction that went full biological mastery has a chance of starting one or mess with evolution to much and create a super race that becomes a crisis.

That would be an intresting one im not sure if fits the name hunters but it would make a cool crisis idea.

Something like the rakghoul plauge form kotor or proto molecule from the expanse would make a diffrent enough crisis

we also dont know anything about these hunters other then that the swarm is afraid of them. we have no real context for how strong they are

The context we have is that the Prethoryn are running from them. That means they are at least as powerful as the Prethoryn, and probably more powerful. This fits with the interpretation that they are fleeing from the Extradimensional Invaders we know and hate.

universe is almost endless so there should be enough races that have a hunting culture
and the fact that in vannilla no 2 crisses can happen at the same game so doubt it be the one of the unbinden factions. but more someting like a follow up crisis to the swarm if they implant it

From the wiki page linked in the OP: "They also state that peace is impossible since they need to feed before returning to the void between galaxies."

I'm interpreting that as extradimensional, but it is possible that it means literally extragalactic space rather than extradimensional. It would be a little odd to try to flee a threat that is coming from extragalactic space by fleeing into extragalactic space, but I guess if you are desperate enough you might try anything.

I do believe that they (the Prethoryn, and also Paradox) are trying to say that they (the Prethoryn) are fleeing from the Unbidden, but that is just my interpretation. Other interpretations are possible, so if someone wants to believe something else then that's fine.

no i think there are sayin the prethon swarm needs to feed before leaving to go to the space between galaxys and find another galaxy feed then repeat

I got the impression the swarm was fleeing galaxy to galaxy as the hunters chased them extra galactic space is infinitely big so as long as they dont back track they can flee out into dark soace fine without ruining into the hunters.

The unbidden thing kind of makes sense as they are basically hunting the galaxies species for sport and food but im not sure if there portrayed as being powerful enough to cush the swarm outrightgiven the swarm is implied to have been far more powerful in the past and the unbidden arent really a bigger threat than the curent swarm.

Sorry, but this is incorrect. The quote posted is what the Prethoryn say about the hunters that are chasing them...that the hunters need to feed...which is exactly what the Unbidden say when you meet them...

[GhostByte]

this is what they say

If a species has the psionic trait it will be able to communicate with the Prethoryn Scourge. They will explain that they're the last survivors of a race and the word "Prethoryn" specifically means "survivor". They also explain that they were driven to near extinction by a species referred to as "The Hunters" and that they will eventually also come to the galaxy as they've hunted the Prethoryn for eons possibly destroying the galaxy in the process. They also state that peace is impossible since they need to feed before returning to the void between galaxies. The Prethoryn "HAK HAK HAK!" isn't laughing at the other empires for trying to stop them, it's laughing at them for thinking they might survive something like The Hunters.

iam sure they are refering to themselvs when they say that peace is impossible since they need to feed before returning to the void between galaxies.

Since Stellaris is a game filled with references and tropes, void between galaxies almost certainly means extra-galactic rather than extra-dimensional.

The Shroud being it's own thing also points that way.

Anyone else think that terraforming mars should cause a invasion from hell event that results in a unique genral for your ground forces? No just me?

I personally would like Federations to have to build a spacestation to serve as the federation's capital where all species are welcome.

Yhea i wanted to do that with a ring world and have one section for each member butyou can only transfer whole systems not single planets
