$$TalonFactionName4$$

With six leg bars, a back fin and two rear prongs, the $$TalonFactionName4$$ resemble bugs. Both genders of adult ships are large dreadnoughts capable of producing smaller frigate sized clones at alarming rates. They are protective of $$TalonFactionName7$$ and $$TalonFactionName9$$ $$RaceNameTalon$$. The $$RaceNameDryad$$ recycled the slow $$TalonFactionName4$$ for a faster replacement. 

Even though the females are bigger and better armored, the slightly faster males dominate the population. The females lay multitudes of eggs in space, sometimes dropping them during battle to confuse the enemys sensors. The $$TalonFactionName4$$ dont eat frequently, and primarily gain energy from a gaseous scoop system. They often inhabit star systems with orange or red giants.
