This does not make me a Babylon 5 fan(as in fanatic) however. Babylon 5, the series, is a spiritual journey for me, one which largely outlines my own belief structure quite succinctly. It is a precarious command, particularly given that sabotage led to the destruction of Babylon stations 1, 2, and 3 and 4 vanished without trace.I admit it. At a crossroads of interstellar commerce and diplomacy, Cmdr Sinclair (2d season Captain Sheridan) must try to establish peace and prosperity between various interstellar empires, all the while fighting forces from within the Earth Alliance.
Commander Sinclair takes command of a giant five-mile-long cylindrical space station, orbiting a planet in neutral space. In the year 2258, it is ten years after the Earth-Minbari War. Later we see the Drazi also took part in the bombing of Centauri Prime in the series' fifth season.
#DRAZI COLOR WAR SERIES#
All Drazi craft share the same *hawk suffix and are armed with forward-firing heavy weapons.Īs the series progresses (the year 2262 according to the storyline), it was revealed that the Drazi had begun several wars of aggression against weaker races. In the "Call to Arms" tabletop wargame by Mongoose Publishing, the Drazi have numerous other craft, from small fighters up to large dreadnoughts. The Sky Serpent is first seen in "Matters of Honor" and last seen in "Sleeping in Light". Several Sky Serpent fighters participated in Battle of Sector 83 during the Shadow War.
The fighter is typically carried on the back of a Sunhawk warship and is launched only in times of battle. The Sky Serpent is heavily armored and can sustain multiple hits from enemy fire. This small vessel is designated the "Sky Serpent." In the B5 wars board game the Sky Serpent is classed as a superheavy fighter. A Sunhawk has also been shown to have the ability to carry and launch a small one-man craft during the battle of Coriana 6 one is seen flying vertically while firing a pulse weapon. The only known major warship seen on-screen operated by the Drazi is the "Sunhawk", a small, highly maneuverable cruiser possibly designed primarily for patrols and quick hit-and-run attacks on larger targets.
#DRAZI COLOR WAR FULL#
In the fifth season episode The Ragged Edge, a Drazi is shown wearing a sash made up of both colors on the Drazi homeworld.ĭrazi MilitaryThe Drazi participated heavily during the Shadow war in 2260, and its later escalation with the full of entrance of the Vorlons by early 2261. Commander Susan Ivanova ended the contest through the use of a loophole in the rules: taking the sashes of the leaders and ordering both groups to stop fighting. A group of Green Drazi on their homeworld intended to escalate to lethal violence, and was quickly followed by Green Drazi on Babylon 5. This "civil war" takes the form of a series of (usually) non-lethal contests. There is no inherent motive or reason for the civil war at all, other than tradition. A Drazi's allegiance is decided arbitrarily by choosing a colored sash, either green or purple, which is then worn around their torso. The streets on the Drazi homeworld are very narrow, reflecting their long history of warfare: armoured Drazi vehicles found it impossible to invade an enemy city without first demolishing its buildings.Įvery five Earth years, the Drazi have a "civil war" between two rival factions, green Drazi and purple Drazi. As a result, Drazi houses are constructed with large balconies and a much smaller interior. The ancient Drazi used to live outdoors, only sleeping inside at night. They were a member of the League of Non-Aligned Worlds and are members of the Interstellar Alliance. About the DraziThe Drazi race in the show was depicted as reptilian in appearance, with blue skin, thick skull bones, and no nostrils, although they are otherwise humanoid.
