History
For eons, they had conducted a number of intergalactic Ichor mining operations where the Scrin encountered a wide variety of hostile environments and species. A result of these encounters led to them developing specialized units among their ranks to deal with potential conflicts in the future.
A Scrin mining fleet was sent to the Sol system where it resided on the far side of Pluto with the Traveler-59 being attached to them and their being the must recent cell raised to full active duty. It was this cell that activated the far-reaching scanning technology to locate its first host planet.
The Scrin arrive at the planet Earth after detecting a massive surge in energy from the Liquid Tiberium bomb detonated on the world. Believing that the native species were killed and the Tiberium Ichor matured, they moved in to harvest the compound only to find heavy resistance from the inhabitants of the planet.
Overview
As a result of conflicts with native species of a host planet, the Scrin developed a number of subsects that evolved to deal with such threats during the infestation of a world. These formed specialized anti-population roles allowing them to operate in hostile environments an against such races. The Reaper sect relied on Tiberium-augmented weaponry and brute force to pacify a population of a targeted host world with them being known throughout the galaxy for unspeakable act of violence and cruelty. In contrast, the Traveler sect operated in a much more insidious approach in dealing with such foes. This saw themselves manipulate the simple minds of planetary inhabitants in order to destabilize their civilization from within. As such, this sect operated by amplifying the latent mind-control powers of their Masterminds through genetic modification and selective breeding. Enslaved populations were inducted as cultists that formed the Cult of the Traveler with new members being inducted through a complex procedure. Each of these sects had numerous sub-cells within them that were attached to various Scrin mining fleets.
Technology
Genetic modification and selective breeding programs were used to breed superior Scrin specimens.
Gravity Stabilizers were Type 8 structures that were made to compensate for intense gravity fields generated by planetary bodies evidently allowing for their spacecraft to make short-range teleportation jumps into Earth-like planets magnetic and gravitic fields with maximum precision. Due to their role, they only were situated in well secured areas and in regions where their operations were highly focused
The species make use of advanced wormhole technology to transport troops from one location to another.
