Changes

This mysterious species are noted as being a nocturnal race{{Fn|6}} who are one of a number of Xenos breeds attracted to darkness.{{Fn|622}} From the interrogations of a Human slave that served the Hrud, its known that they are a secretive race of subterranean scavengers who lived in tunnel-cities known as ''"juunlak"''s. These typically are formed near the greatest centres of Human population. They tend to be fiercely tribal and are expert scavengers of technology to the point that they can easily assemble from a mongrel collection of weapons and devices with the resources they have at their disposal. Ancestry and family-ties are two elements that are considered all-important in Hrud society which defies the ''"filthy scavenger"'' image that Imperial scholars view the xenos species. Outsiders tended to never doubt the existence of the Hrud though not much was known about them by humans with rumours speaking of secret societies of these aliens living onboard ships though they tended to be used as bogeymen to scare infants. Hrud have demonstrated a unparalleled fastidiousness in the field of record-keeping where they compile vast stores of historical, cultural and technical information.{{Fn|1b}}
