Diba
The Diba are a faction of robots, such as the Kor Mereti and the Kor Sestor in the base game.
They live in a single system south, and just outside of jump range, of Jibauni space. During the storyline, they will be linked to the Jibauni systems.
The Diba have one outfit, which is a modified version of a Heavy Laser. It is slightly more powerful and can only be installed on Diba ships.
The Diba have five different types of ships. They are named the Ithquaya, Arbquaya, Tahquaya, and Tamquaya (these names are a modified version of Arabic). Then there is the Llama from Sheragi-Rebirth which their ships can carry.
The guns of the Diba do not work right now and I haven’t specified everything for the Tamquaya, so don’t think they are great right now.
The Ithquaya to the Diba is what a Scrapper is to pirates. It is the most widely spread, and the least powerful.
The Arbquaya is closer to a Mule. It can carry one fighter, but it also holds four Diba Lasers.
The Tahquaya carries two fighters, like the Nest. But with eight Diba Lasers, it is quite potent on its own.
With four fighters and sixteen lasers, this is the capital ship of any Diba fleet. Think of it as a Carrier in human space.
The Diba have no fighting at the beginning of the game. During the Jibauni storyline/Emerald Sword discovery, they invade both Jibauni space and Sheragi space. However, at the end of all storylines in this plugin, the Diba are annihilated and the Alpha who controls them disappears, presumably to stir up trouble somewhere else.
They are controlled by an Alpha. I am wondering if Danforth should know that the Alpha fled in that direction, or if the Coalition know about him. They already have an Alpha in their space.
