Dresk/Empire Wars Background

General
I'm creating this journal as a reference for the Dresk/Empire Wars series.
Firstly, you've probably noted the change of name in the series. I've decided to go with calling it the the Empire Wars, for two reasons. Firstly, with the involvement of the Krel Republic it is no longer simply a war against the Dresk, and secondly, the narrator of Lucy's soldiers calls the war that in the very first paragraph ever written in this series.
I've rearranged the stories into different story "arcs". So now they should be easier to understand in context, rather than being a random collection of loosely connected stories. Each story now has a code after the title, to help you identify the arc to which it belongs. They look something like this "[Empire Wars - BD#1]"
Arcs currently in use
BD - Stands for "Black Devils". This arc follows the Black Devils squadron through the first person narrative of Cameron Naylor.
IE- Important Events. These stories narrate the historically important events that shape the war as it unfolds.
RV- The initials of Star Corps finest female pilot, Raven Vettel
Species List
The Empire
Pantheroid - Any forms of the four big cats
Felisian - A seperate species from Pantheroids, Felisians resemble domestic cats
Feliform - Any form of the Herpestidae (Mongoose, meerkat) or otter
Torosian - Bovines
Canids - Canines, usually dogs or wolves
Ursine - Bears
Dresk Empire
Saurians - Lizards
Krel Republic
Cephaloids - Octopus; squid
Krel (as a species) - Shrimp
