Psyklop was a
member of an ancient race
of people who
evolved from insects.
They inhabited the Earth,
long before humans
came into existence,
below the Earth's surface.
They were physically
superior to humans and
had an immense
technological knowledge.
But the race fell out of favor
with the Dark Gods
they worshipped and were
put into an eternal sleep.
Psyklop was awoken with the chance to earn his people's freedom so that they might awaken and take back the Earth from us lesser beings.
