The Ilmanii Engineers history begins after the second Xeno Purge of Illmane. They were stood up and commissioned to build all of Drengar, the Red Keep and just about every installation on Illmane.
By the time of Illmane making contact with the larger galaxy they were well trained and experienced in their craft. To date they have seen few major battles, save the occasional destruction of a leftover Ssi-Ruvi incursion.
