Changes
The brownshirts are a community of descended energy beings from a universe consumed by self-replicating (Von Neumann) machines. They have been moving inwards in the multiverse structure seeking safety while fleeing an unknown entity or entities that is hunting them. They are hopeful that old alliances at their destination ([[The First World]]) are still in place. Unfortunately, [[The First World]] did not honor the old alliance, and imprisoned the brownshirts in [[Teskoy Prison]], prior to their rescue by [[Danny]]'s team.
The brownshirts are currently were part of an ancient alliance that assisted [[The First World]] in building the structures and machinery used to generate the [[Inner Shield]], [[Outer Shield]] and [[Branch World]] shields. As a result they were thought to be the only known entities who can could rebuild the [[Outer Shield]] and help stop [[The Crushing Fist]], which resulted in their being hunted by [[Cristina Thompson]] and [[The Black-eyed Army]]. The unique abilities of the brownshirts also drew the attention of the [[Dreamer On High]], who utilized them to generate a unique variety of [[Portal]]. The brownshirts have since reaffirmed their alliance with [[Danny]], and have chosen to stick with humanity for protection, assisting in rebuilding the old technology and systems that generated the shields, as well as the portal generation mechanisms present in the [[Portal hub facilities]]
