The '''Pfhor''' were an alien species that ruled over a vast interstellar empire, comprised of many subservient client races. Hailing from a world of unknown location or make, the Pfhor terrorized the galaxy, subjugating many species such as the [[Wasp|Wasps]], [[Drinniol]] and [[S'pht]].<ref> [https://marathon.bungie.org/story/counterattack.html#M1.03.4.1| ''Marathon'' (1994) '''Defend THIS!''', Terminal 4]</ref><ref>[https://marathon.bungie.org/story/rebellion.html#M1.24.1.1 Marathon (1994), Welcome to the Revolution, Terminal 1]</ref>
== Description ==


They attacked the [[UESC Marathon]] on July 25, 2794, when the rampant AI [[Durandal]] compromised the location of the human colony of [[Tau Ceti IV]]. This initial raid would be successfully repelled, though the colony would not escape the Pfhor Empire's swift retaliation. Nevertheless, this contact with Durandal and humanity at large would begin a series of events that would inevitably crush their Empire.
The Pfhor are bipedal, somewhat taller than humans and have three red eyes and grey skin. Pfhor are generally thinner and lighter than humans and are superbly adapted for low gravity environments. The arrangement of their eyes was changed from a triangle pointing down in Marathon to a triangle pointing up in the later games.<ref>[[Marathon (1994)|Marathon]], [[Marathon 2: Durandal]], [[Marathon Infinity]]</ref>


== History ==
=== Culture ===
{{stub|section=yes}}
Little is revealed about Pfhor culture. They appear to have a rather complex bureaucracy, and according to [[Durandal]] their religion is "pathetically boring."<ref>[[Marathon 2: Durandal]], [[Ex Cathedra]], Terminal 1</ref> The only information that has been gathered about their religion is the presence of [[Sfiera]], a goddess of lightning and passion. The Pfhor have an empire and specialize in slavery.
