Architects
The Precursors are an unknown race on Planet 4546B. Most information surrounding them is currently unknown. In the future there will be four precursor bases in the world, located on the Mountain Island, and in the Lost River, the Lava Castle and the Active Lava Zone.
Description
Although the Precursors are not seen in-game, they are an advanced race, able to create technologies capable of bringing down ships, and were able to imprison a Sea Emperor.
Abilites
Not much is known about their abilities, however, the Precursors are able to create and use Warpers as guards for their bases, and create advanced technolgy, such as a huge "gun" on the Mountain Island.[1] The Precursors are also able to create "keys", for which their purpose is unknown.
Future Plans
Aside from their bases and their relevance to the story, the player may be able to acquire and craft the Precursor's technology, which might be unlocked from a source unrelated to scanning or fragments.[2]
