The dEr0 are a race of large headed, thin and small bodied, grey skinned, black eyed hominids that dwell deep below the crust of the world in their sunken gigastructures. Who and what they once where is unknown, even to themselves. They are paranoid about other races, and their machinations against the dEr0. This paranoia is coupled with their own machines and tools, which cause perception shifts and even breaks in reality. It isn't known if their paranoia is a result of these machines, or if these machines are a result of their paranoia.
The Metalmen are the dEr0 soldiers, citizens that have been biologically implanted into a robotic suit of horrifying design. With glowing red perfectly circular eyes, and a false mouth of sharp metal teeth, they move quickly in broken patterns. The dEr0 operating it is in the chest compartment, its back sliced open to fuse its spine to the machine's core for perfect translation of movement between the two.
