Description
The Chosen are a newly discovered race that appeared out of the Melding in the events preceding the game's timeline. These mysterious warriors are hell-bent on destroying the remnants of humanity and their full motive for doing so is uncertain. They have a symbiotic relationship with the Melding, as the Razorwind warlord Serkan reveals that a major goal is to reunite the Melding on Earth with the Melding from its universe of origin. This implies the Melding is sentient and that the Chosen are extensions of its will, though that has yet to be confirmed.

The Chosen work in tandem with Melding Titans, large, spider-like, biomechanical war machines that are used as heavy attack units for assaulting cities and outposts. The exact nature of the Chosen is currently under intense speculation, but it has been confirmed, through the campaign missions and dialogue in ARES Jobs, that the Chosen are former humans corrupted by the Melding into loyal minions. However, goals other than the annihilation of humankind are unknown, and their full relationship with the Melding is yet to be revealed.

According to an interview with Mark Kern, the Chosen will not be a playable race in Firefall. However, Kern has stated in the forums that the true nature of the Chosen will be fully revealed in the accompanying manga to Firefall, Affinity.
