Reverse-engineering these ancient relics, they made considerable advances in technology. In the Ember Waste, the Remnant discovered ancient caches of alien technology. Out of fear of a potential Alpha takeover of human space, the Remnant scattered their settlements across their planets, but when they learned that the Alphas had been (for the most part) defeated, they began to open up and develop more freely. Continuing to explore, they eventually found a collection of habitable planets, on which they would continue to develop. This wormhole would later, for unknown reasons, become unstable, requiring a " Quantum Key Stone" to safely enter. They passed through a red wormhole (known in-game as the Ember Threshold) in a northwestern system called Terminus. The Remnant are the descendants of a group of humans who had split off from the rest of humanity around half a millennium ago, at the height of the first Alpha War. Their ships and cities are built from strange composite materials, and follow strange dark, curved and practically alien patterns. They traverse the unstable wormholes of the Waste with " Quantum Key Stones" mined from a single planet.
Their outfits are characterized by their heavy resemblance to other species' outfits, which is more than a coincidence (and in fact, this is explicitly noted in their descriptions: they are scavengers and reverse-engineer stolen alien technology). For example, they communicate primarily using a complex sign language, and their vocal communication tends to be chanted or sung rather than simply spoken. Their being human is, for the most part, the only connection they have with humanity as a whole their culture, society, and technology are radically different from anything found in human space. The Remnant are a band of humans, or so they claim, who left long ago to escape the Alphas, settling in the Ember Waste to the southeast of Syndicate space.
