Blink dogs are the descendents of dog provolve super-marines, created in Monarchrate deep science research laboratories starting in the late 30th Century. The bio-weapon researchers were interested in a pack animal with a natural psiportation capability, which could act as a cohesive team of determined, loyal marines that could board space-based facilities, habitats and particularly, strikers, without the need to dock.
During the Rift Wars, they were a devastating new tactical option, when force was difficult to maintain, or when capture was more interesting than destruction.
