Very true!!

I believe the hunters are the owners of the galactic sentry array and creator of the Contingency, and set up beacons to call for the unbiden when the contingency system fails in eradicating threats to their existence. Also in regards to the prethoryn scourge, they just could have been inhabiting their birth galaxy with species that used the jumpdrive and triggered the beacons, and where lucky enough to escape and are now just on the run from the hunters.

The creators of the Contigency killed themselves according to the Contigency AI. You can learn about it, if you are a materialist empire and inquire about the contigency's creators. Whatever that empire discovered, it must have been hyper advanced(galactic spanning, possibly intergalactic) and their fear of the class 30 singularity(whatever that may be) panicked them so much that they seeded at least one galaxy with an ai strong enough to purge all life and offed themselves, because they were approaching that point.

@@agamemnonofmycenae5258 Of course, we're trusting the Contingency AI is a reliable narrator... "Yeah, they killed themselves, yup, totally, we were definitely in a different galaxy when that happened..."

10:09 The Hunters seems to operate by "extinguishing" stars (the whole galaxy disapeering), this is more akin to a Crisis Empire than the Unbbiden. One other fact is that the Scourge we fight are mere remanants of fugitives feeling from those Hunters, and they are still on par in terms of firepower with the Unbbiden, so a full power Scoruge wouldn't be so terrfied by the Unbbidens. My best guess is that those "Hunters" were a successfull Crisis Empire that blow out every stars in their galaxy, forcing the Prethoryns to flee

Finally the only crisis that’s already happened before and has the most events connected to it

Now my head canon is that the scourge initially attracted the unbidden with jump drives. They realized their folly too late and their entire galaxy was consumed by an unbidden faction. Thereafter they escaped to other galaxies and don't use jump drives so as to not get overwhelmed by the unbidden which such technology attracts.

After all, I think using warp drives are suppose to attract the Unbidden right? Acting like a beacon for them to go to across the universe maybe. I don’t know if you’re trying to ascend to the Shroud or some other higher realm when being the Crisis, but since the Unbidden are “close” to the Shroud, maybe they ascended to that new realm or somehow traveled there after getting into the Shroud? The Unbidden are also ravenously hungry for life energy, similar to the Crisis Empire’s desire to wipe out every sentient thing around it. Maybe the ascended have become even more apathetic than their past forms, now being able to sustain themselves off their victims?

i think unbidden are the strongest contingency are too spread out, can be beaten with "normal" ship designs, also their main threat in form of the ghost signal can be ignored by biological and psionic empires scourge meanwhile lacks the means of replenishing their forces, also they are countered by their own weapons so if you win a single battle and collect the loot you can push back against them even easier unbidden meanwhile start a big invasion in a single system and if they aren't immediately contained they will put their anchors down and prevent the rift from being closed allowing them to keep getting reinforcements also their weapon is useless against them

It's worth mentioning that these are a reference to the Firstborn from A Space Odyssey by Arthur C Clarke. Almost everything in Stellaris is a reference to something, so this is very likely. This also implies that they may have seeded life, or at least advanced it, long ago to bring the difference species to the present level. It would also explain why most of the species are advancing to the same level at the same time.

Stellaris is played in sessions, from year 2200 up to 2400, 2500 or more, if you survive the galaxy and its one or more crisis. It would be interesting to have a Final Crisis after the regular end-game ones, which is the "Paradox" forces intervening on an empire that has existed for way too long, suffocating the cycle of creation and destruction that once gave rise to yourself (it is not a broken 4th wall but it represents the inherent game cycle of Stellaris, it is its soul of rennovation made into a thread). I believe this poetic representation of the game cycle is as adequate as a final crisis could be, and a chance to flex the powers you acquired through beating everything before and probably even conquering the Galaxy itself (thus again, suffocating the start of new empires for the game' galaxy and for yourself as a player).

This could allow Paradox to lead the story to a totally diferent direction, hear me out, what if Jump drives and the Unbiden arent directly connected? This galaxy could be one huge experiment, that would explain why almost every empire developed FTL engines at roughly the same time, and for all we know the fallen empires could be vassals of this extremely powerfull empire, that would explain why they have very little diplomatic options (so they dont temper with the experiment), they cant expand or built bigger fleets (their overlords wouldnt allow it), their tech never evolves (they didnt actually researched it was given to them) and when the galaxy consolidates suddenly there is war in heaven (Introduce foreign stimuli to observe response). Then when empires develop Jump Drives this powerfull empire might consider them too close of some unknown technology that could possibly allow for intergalatic travel and therefore originate a containment breach in the experiment, they activate the beacon and the Unbiden are drawn to it, manipulating them into becoming a failsafe. Then the cycle resets.

I almost wonder if the Unbidden are refugees of a sort. The others seem intent on ending them, and only they seem to focus on the prey aspect of our dimension. They make reference to being able to feast "at long last" but judging by their behaviour the other two don't seem particularly hungry. Perhaps they were losing the war, and were hoping our galaxy could reenergise them for a comeback.

It's a pity the writers said energy is a property of matter and it is their supposition that these entities are energy formed in such a way to exhibit physical properties, when the latter is actually true for everyone. Matter is actually just energy, and in a sense we are all made of energy, bound up in special ways. A being "of energy" from our perspective I assume would simply just be "less bound". The universe is nothing but fields and waves within them, forming the elemental "particles" that propagate through spacetime and interact with each other due to the interference of the underlying waves travelling at the speed of light either directly through space (photons) experiencing no time, or at some angle through both space and time, building the neutrons and protons et cetera that we perceive as matter, traveling at some speed less than light.

Though, as we've seen an empire can constitute more then one species, but it truly doesn't really matter if I'm honest. They must be destroyed. On the topic of the scourge- They're psionics, which are interwoven with the psionic jump drives as far as my, lack of psionics, indicates. Which seems to be closer to the reality of the unbidden due such technology usage. If I may be so bold- perhaps the scourge either released enough psionic energy on their own to attract the unbidden by unknown at current time means, or that they had to hastily re-fabricate their drives once the.

Funny... I currently have to deal with them. And they somehow seem to be attracted by wormholes. Maybe that's just because of their strategic value, but while i set the appearance of wormholes very low(there currently is only one pair in my galaxy) they don't seem to value anything else that much. So i wonder, if this is somehow related to their lore...

Interestingly , your physicist and archivist data have almost the same speculative theory about the unbidden. They are probably beings that are not made by conventional matter like atoms or molecules (solid, liquid, gas, plasma) , they’re probably exist in the state of something like “man made” phase of matter, and its an insult on science that they are jokingly called “ghost” since they still ride ships and do not float or go thru solid objects like a supernatural being . they are still being bound by the rules of physics - albeit a little different set than the ones we had here in our galaxy ., and believe it or not they can be destroyed by kinetic ammo , basically they’re not immune to the very very big “boom stick” 🤔🤔🤔. xeno biology wise , their biological functions require regular matter (atom or molecules) for their sustenance which i assume is that they break down regular matter to be converted for their biological function and their form of matter (speculative theory on why they use some sort of matter disintegrator weapon), its speculative that they’re state of matter is not stable in our regular galaxy , thus preventing them from staying permanently in our universe and eating other galaxies 🤔 Society wise , its public knowledge that they have some sort of faction feud as only the unbidden seemed to be interestingly in eating us , the other two faction seemed to care more about social status and power rather than making us lunch 🤔 and with those three locked in eternal civil war of sorts .
