The Tribes of The Aberyian Realm, as compiled by Ganth Uth-Matar, Co-Chancellor of the Pashen Providences. Introduction: As the Elders began to explore the stars from the home-world of Amavorax; the Elders discovered several inhabitable worlds. A the Elders made headway through the unknown, charting new paths; Amavorax sought to colonize these new worlds, for the betterment of the people, in ways of more food and more living space. The Ruling council thought it best that each undergo its own colonization project, to minimize the over-taxation of the populace. Each tribe began its own colony effort, building and planning for the tack at hand. In less than a decade after the announcement, large droves of colony vessels took to the stars. Each of the tribes sent their vessels outward, spreading through out the heavens. The wilds proved to be hostile and hazardous, as colony fleet after fleet were destroyed, vanished or simply returned back to Amavorax, disheartened. The Amavorax citizens began to lose hope in the colony project, calling the target areas

Aberyis or struggle without end.

But a ray of hope passed over the people, as in the first three scores of the initial colonization as one tribe succeeded, where the others failed, in establishing outposts in wild space. Returning to Amavorax, this tribe opened the way for the others to leave the confines of the home-world and reach for the stars

The Wu-Stead. The Wu-stead are a tall, hairless, four-armed humanoid race with skin-tones ranging from light gold to motted browns. Their eyes are covered with an anti-glare membrane, giving the appearance of pupil-less eyes. Females have hair only on their heads. The Wu-stead are the oldest established government, having tamed wild space first. The Wu-stead have long been educators of the realm, having some of the finest academies in the realm. Since its founding, the Wu-stead have always strove to be the best at what they do, to the point of believing they are the best. The Wu-stead have even created an award, the Paragon, that state the recipient is the master of his/her chosen profession. Its government is a Consulate, made up of the governors of the Wu-stead worlds and overseen by an elected Coordinator. The Coordinator is the chosen ruler and advised by the Consulate. The Coordinator has final say in all matters, however the Consulate may contest his actions. Contesting is rare, as the Consulate must call for a General Population vote. If the contested action is still note resolved, an Executive Resignation may be called, with the General Population voting on the outcome.

The Pashen dwell within the vast aquatic worlds of the realm, yet are able to survive above surface as well. The Pashens natural environment have adapted them well for space travel and combat, as they tend to think in three-dimensions. Pashen know that other tribes would be uncomfortable under the waves, so they maintain orbiting stations above some of their worlds in space. The Pashen take pride in their race, maintaining the belief contact with others should be minimized to avoid racial contamination. Their pride extends to their educational system, as Pashen universities are the best, rivaled only by the Wu-stead academies. It is the debate of who has the better knowledge that has kept the Pashen and the Wu-stead in a cold war state. The government is a monarchy, ruled by a Chancellor.

New recruits are easy to spot and their head braid does not touch his neck. A Grand-Xalin (equal to a commodore) has a braid that loops around his right shoulder in a forazia-style, with the bottom of the loop touching mid-torso.

Kappa drive a hard bargain but always a fair one, so that both parties depart satisfied. However, just because the kappa love trade, does not mean they will not fight.

Males have the full feline face, while females have more of a human-like appearance. Simbali prize honor above all other aspects of life and prioritize their lives around this idea. Simbali hold to the concept that family is all that matters. The race as a whole is an extended family, then the Simbalis personal family, then the Simbali himself, honor is given from a Simbali in that order. Simbali maintain that the Il-Khan, the ruler, is the head of the Simbali family and as such, much honor is given to him. The Simbali also have a rite of marriage in which the male suitor, attempts to subdue the female in one-to-one combat. Males fight unarmed, as females are armed with a shield and a pole arm. A contest is conducted between males, if more that one suitor is involved, with the Champion contending with the Bride-to-be.

Their skin and hair-tones are that of humans, while their fur-tones are range from white to palomino. The Equali move with a sure-footedness that beguiles their clumsy appearance. The True Equali are bi-pedal humanoids that appear as humans; however, Their legs are covered with a thick down of feathers, with long feathers extending along the outside of the arms, from wrist to shoulder. The colors range from black to bright yellow. The true Equali are incapable of flight. The Equali are a Theocracy , governed by a High Priest. Their society is based on their worship of the Elders, who they believe are the example of which all tribes should follow. They have passed down from generation to generation, the Tome of Wisdom, a collection of sacred writings from the Elders. Each Elder gives practical insight into life and guidance into the Gift. The Tome is divided into sections they call books, one for each Elder. The first is called Amavoraxians, a history of the world before the elders departed to the stars. The next is called The Expansion of Aberyis, the history of the Elders journeys, ending with the discovery of Quantis, the betrayal and vanishing of the Elders. These are the only section written by the Elders own hand. Over the next two-thousand, one-hundred years, starting seven-hundred years after the Elders vanished, an Equali would rise up, guided by an Elder, and be sent to the tribe the Elder patrons and preach to that tribe. The following is the messages the Equali prophets delivered that comprise the rest of the Tome: Xi-Tranen: Discipline and Self-control, Wu-Staven: Courage and Perseverance, Pash: Conduct and Proper Living, Simbalo: Honor and Family, Equala: Love and Faith, Que-Donal: Transgression and Atonement, and Kappis: Death and Final Judgment of the Person and the Realm as a Whole by the Elders.

The Que-Dan Que-Dan are a human-like tribe with tendencies toward lighter skin-tones and darker hair colors. Only an intense medical scan will denote the slight differences between Humans and Que-Dan. The current active members in Realm affairs are Que-Dan who hold Traditional ideals. These concepts are that all tribes hold an equal voice in the Affairs of State, that all tribes have a sovereign right to rule their holdings in a manner that does not compromise the Realms security as a whole. The Que-Dan practice this by having planetary governor acting as voice for the whole territory. It is the Council of seven that appears in the Court of the Sovereign Lord. After being the Antagonists in the Three-thousand year Civil war, the Traditionalists are viewed with scorn, contempt and open hostility. Most other tribes treat these Que-Dan as second-class citizens, as all Que-Dan retain the darkness they are born with. As a result, most Que-Dan have very few non-Que-Dan allies. The Imperial Que-Dan maintain the ideals of their fallen Emperor, that duty, discipline and power is what is needed to rule. The Imperial system is a monarchy ruled by the Emperor-in-Exile, Toslov. The system itself is enshrouded in mystery. The Imperials maintain an ambassador to the Sovereign Lords court. However, the Imperials do not acknowledge the full authority of the Sovereign Lord over them, swearing loyalty to the Exiled Emperor, and working with the Realm only to secure their own holdings. The last group of Que-Dan are the Separatists. The inhabit the edge of the Que-Dan territories near Wild Space. They owe no allegiance to anyone but themselves. Rumors are abound that the Separatists have forged an alliance with a hostile Realm outside the Aberyian Realm. Using this to gather their own power, they may become a threat to Realm security.

Failure for females to expel fertilized eggs will result in Impaction, a condition in which eggs continue to produce, resulting in the expansion of the eggs sac that crushes the internal organs of the Female to a fatal conclusion.

The Gift The gift is the life-force in which all living beings are given by the creator of the universe. All Aberyians have the ability to tap into this natural talent; however very few actually spend the time studying how to use their gift. The Gift is the innate ability all have the potential to use. As an Aberyians knowledge in the gift grows, each tribe begins to display gifts unique to each tribal strand as given to them by their patron Elder. In order to gain such gifts, an Aberyian must have a Gift Ability of 3D. Upon reaching this level, an Aberyian is ready to receive their Gifts.

The Aberyian Knights: Prior to the Civil war, The Knighthood held a long Seven-thousand year history, as a noble and honorable organization. At the onset of the war, the order was eradicated. At the Wars end, Rae-Dawn Novastar sought to resurrect this group. With the support of the Realm rulers, she founded the new order of Knights. Now it grows in ranks ready to meet the challenges of maintaining order and security for the Realm. New recruits are transported to ether Valin, the Xi-Trandorian capital or Xalis, in the Wu-Stead Consulate for Basic training. At these sites, the recruits undergo an intense training program that lasts six months. After that, the recruit is encouraged to follow a career path in the order. The Advanced Individual Training takes another eighteen months. When the two year program is finished, the recruit is assigned a duty station at the rank of Private/Deck man Apprentice/ 2nd Lieutenant or Ensign ready to start on a new life as an Aberyian Knight.

Renown and Advancement in the Order: In order for a Knight to rise in the ranks, that knight must build up a distinguished career. This is measured by a trait called Renown. This trait is not limited to the Knighthood; rather it is a measure all Aberyians use. Renown is the measure of a character being known by person (s) out side their normal sphere of influence and is broken down into seven distinct aspects. These are: Aggression: Resorting to violence. Discipline: Obedience and control. Initiative: Boldness and innovative thinking. Integrity: Moral and Honorable nature. Openness: Acceptance of others. Reliability: Dependability. Skill: Excellence. All Characters start with one Renown point in any aspect at Character creation; players may sacrifice 1 skill die for 3 renown points. Below are the Tribal aspects: F: Is favored by the Tribe and should be rated High. U: Is not favored and should be rated Low, negative numbers if possible. N: Is a neutral aspect, positive or negative numbers will not affect the Character. Aspect Xi-Tra. Equali Pashen WuStead F U F N N N F Tradi. QueDan U N F N F F N Imper.

It is by this method that a Character can be well-known, in command and have very little experience for the job or to quote a speaker at a recent Commencement ceremony, If there is one person most suited for the task at handmost likely you are not those people.

The Beginning: 10,000+ years ago: The Elders depart Amavorax, explore the wilds of space, charting new paths. The Elders find Quantis, are betrayed by the Deceiver and vanish. 9,999-9,647 years ago: Amavoraxs population begins to grow. By 9,731, Amavoraxs people have sprawled across the world. In 9,717, the Ruling Council announced that each tribe should work on its own colony effort, using the paths of the Elders as a guide. Ten years later, the first colony ships departed. Fleet after fleet was destroyed, returned in despair, or was simply lost. The Amavoraxians called the wild space: Aberyis or Struggle without End. Then in the Seventh Month of 9,647, The Wu-Stead tribe returned to Amavorax with flora and fauna from several worlds and announced that their colonies had survived and thrived. 9,646-8,418 years ago: Following The Wu-stead and learning their successful way, the other six tribes pressed forward in the colony effort. In 9,603, Amavorax assigned each tribe an area of space to colonize, to maximize available resources to accommodate the slow overpopulation of the Home world. In 8,953, with the assistance of the Wu-stead, the Pashen had established a workable network of colonies in their assigned area. In 8,841, in a joint effort, the Xi-trandorians and the Equali managed to settle and send resources back to Amavorax. In 8,839, accidentally over shooting their target area, the Simbali, under the guidance of Cholafo, forged colonies in the far reaches of space with the intent to blaze a path of colonies back to Amavorax. The Que-Dan by 8,838, had already established themselves in the most hazardous area of space, using the space anomalies to their advantage. By 8,783, true to his word and with the assistance of the Que-Dan, Cholafo established his last colony just ten hours away from Amavorax, giving the Simbali the largest holding in the space ways. The Kappa, still unsuccessful, began to move into the other colonies, becoming secondary citizens. By 8,771, the Wu-stead had already established industrial worlds to supply Amavorax. Amavorax began to reap the harvest of the colonies, demanding more and more from them. As a result, each tribe began to seek more worlds to meet the demand. The Kappa began to act as go-betweens with the tribes and Amavorax. Disgusted by the greed of Amavorax, several out-lying worlds began to protest the over-taxation. In the Third month of 8,418, the out-lying worlds embargoed all exported goods to Amavorax. The Amavorax Council declared the worlds in rebellion, ordering all tribes to deal with the insurrection quickly. In the Fifth month of 8,418, the Realm was at war. The Colony Wars, 8,417-8,000 years ago: The clouds of war descended upon the Realm as rebel colonist and Amavoraxian forces clashed. As war swirled round them, colony worlds stood divided on the issue. Then in the Ninth month of 8,392, the Wu-stead announced their non-involvement in the war and Realm affairs, becoming an independent government of consolidated worlds. In the three months that followed, each tribe followed the Wu-stead example, hoping to break the Amavoraxian power hold. Amavorax retaliated with the stored resources it had accumulated. Colony fleets scattered before the Amavoraxian Dreadnaughts, headed by the Albino Simbali, Kosloff, as world after world fell back to Amavorax control. The colonist cried out to the Elders for guidance. In 8,371, the word of Kappis, Elder of Judgment and the Kappa people, spoke to a humble kappa named Kalinich. Write to the Tribal leaders and mark my words. This is only a shade of the darkness to come. Wait and see, one come to lead you, to guide you; yet, before that time, Darkness will engulf all the tribes. In 8,284, The Xi-trandorians, commanded by their Colony Prime Minister, Norivix, gained an advantage by capturing a Dreadnaught. Afterward, Norivix gathered the other colony leaders together and passed the information gained to the tribes. Production of the Colony Dreadnaughts followed. In 8,273, the first fleet of these new vessels engaged the Amavoraxians, scoring their first major victory and marking a turning point in the war. Norivix, granted the title of Gran-xalin or First Admiral, began a systematic progression of defeats and routs for the Amavoraxian forces, earning him the nickname of The Celestial Prince. In 8,016, The Celestial Prince assaulted the Home world, itself. Kosloff rallied every available force to defend Amavorax. The Planet Battle ensued for fifteen years. Millions lost their lives in the carnage, as Kosloff implemented weapons of Mass Destruction that crystallized large tracts of land. Noravix, wanting to save as many as possible, personally lead the attack on Kosloffs Stronghold in the capitol city, the last remaining unaffected territory on Amavorax. In the Second month of 8,001, Norivix and Kosloff faced each other on the Assembly floor of the Great Sapphire Tower. Although it cost him his left eye and hand, Noravix bested Kosloff in personal combat. With kosloffs death, the Amavoraxians sued for peace. The Tribal leaders declared that Norivix must be the one of Prophecy and demanded that he should rule the Realm. Preplexed, He sought out the Kappa prophet, Grannich, heir to Kalinich, to inquire if he was the one, foretold. Grannich spoke, No Then I should not accept this honor? questioned Noravix. No, responded Grannich, accept it, without you, He cannot come. Then He shall be of my line? inquired Noravix. Nonot of your line. Then how will we know Him? He will be preceded by the Aberyian who is not. How is that possible? asked Noriavix, confused. Grannich was silent. In the First Month of 8,000, Noravix was invested as the First Sovereign Lord of the Aberyian Realm; thus beginning an era of growth and change for the Unified Realm.

Reinstated Nal-Harmins reforms Banned weapons research, promoted peace. Began reign at age 30, did not limit himself to Amavorax, promoted peace and equality, took pride in individual and tribal achievement, and maintained that all tribes were equal. An Age of Prosperity covered the Realm.As Andu III traveled more, His popularity and love for his people grew; yet, not all was content with this Age of Equality. One faction wanted to climb to the height of power that Andu III had been given. In the Fourth month of 3,000, Andu III was discovered dead in his bedchamber, overdosed on the stun poison Simbali naturally produce in their claws. Shocked by the news of the Assassination of their beloved leader, the Aberyians sought to wipe the Simbali people from existence. The mantle of war descended upon the Realm once more. The Fall of The Realm, 3,023 years ago: The Council of Seven, the Que-Dan ruling body, gave all control to a councilman named Azrai, after several other members vanished mysteriously. Azrai, a master in the Dark Gift, instituted a reign of total control by use of his Dark Gift. Through mystical means, he infiltrated every aspect of Que-Dan life. By merging his essence with the life gift of his subjects, he had total access to all who were under his tyranny. Those who were resistant were hunted down or turned in by friends and family. No one outside of Que-Dan space was aware of the internal affairs of the Que-Dan territories. By 3,002, Azrai had total dominance over the Que-Dan; only the Que-Dan in Order of Aberyian Knights remained unaffected. In the Third month of 3,000, Azrai convinced a young Que-Dan knight, named Darca, to assist him in removing the only obstacle in his path to powerThe Aberyian Knights. Darca convinced The First Knight, Vos and his Master Knight, Malvaar, that a hidden threat was approaching to harm Andu III. The Threat, an entity from the realm of Shadow, could only be stopped if the Aberyian Knight when in and confronted it. Vos and Malvaar lead the charge, with the Order of Knights valiantly following their leaders into the Shadow Realm and thus the Ancient Order of Aberyian Knights passed forever from the Realm. With his way clear, Azrai made his move. Agents were sent into the Capitol of The Realm. Three days later, at the start of the Fourth month of 3,000, Azrais agents assassinated Andu III. The manner of death caused most to follow the most logical conclusionThe Simbali had betrayed their Honor, The Herald of the Sovereign Lord, Brother to the Il-Khan, ruler of the Simbali Territories , betrayed his Station. The Simbali had become Killers of the worst sort and must be served Justice.

Descent into Darkness: 3,000-20 years ago. Outraged by the death of Andu III, The Celestial Prince of the Xi-Trandorian Star League mobilizes his forces and begins a campaign against the Simbali, cutting a path through the Kappa territories. The Lord Coordinator of Wu-stead Consulate and The High Priest of the Theocracy of the Equali protest the Princes actions. The need to restore the Sovereign position in the Realm is the platform both governments try to express. However, the Chancellor of the Pashen Providences agrees with the Prince and begins to advance upon the Simbali. The Wu-stead Concordias moves to intercept the Pashen Battle Cruisers, as Simbali Battlemasters engage the Xi-Trandorian Peacekeepers. In an attempt to keep the resources out of the warring factions reach, The Herald of the Sovereign Lord, Vallarin, left Amavorax with the Crown of the Sovereign Lord and begins to lock down the supply houses of the Realm. Hunted by XiTrandorians, Vallarin has little recourse but to destroy all the Storage houses but one. This Last one, an orbital station, he locks down then repositions in the far reaches of Aberyian space. Afterward, He seeks sanctuary among the Equali, never to see his Home space or people again. The High Lord Chamberlain, Cerilia, a Kappa, orders all citizens of Amavorax to return to their home territories in this state of emergency. When the last transport is out of the star system, he activates the Amavoraxian Shield, cloaking the world from the other Aberyians. Afterward, He secures in his possession the Mantle of Leadership, an ancient artifact that endues the Sovereign Lord with his power, and uses his gift to leave Amavorax. For the other Aberyians, Amavorax had vanished for ever. The Que-Dan, overtly, remained neutral in the wars for the first few decades; however, Emperor Azrai used his agents to feed fuel to the fire, by using other tribal craft to assault the other tribes. This constant state of war was maintained for 2000 years. Then in the Tenth month of 2,000, Azrai, who had prolonged his life by his tie to the Que-Dan, launched the Que-Dan War Machine. Armed with Vessels that utilized Energy Dispersal Pulses, able to strip a ship of its shielding, and troops, whose uniforms could morph into full suits of battle armor, systematically began to move across the Realm, laying claim to world after fallen world. In an attempt to counter this, All but the Kappa and Equali, began to develop weapons and ships of their own. The Xitrandorians began to augment their declining forces by using criminals. To ensure their cooperation and loyalty, The Celestial Prince ordered these new troops to be Mind Wiped, a process that eliminates the memories and personality of the individual and reeducates them with military tactics and doctrine. The Public of the Star League find it to be a more civilized punishment than death. By 1,200, All Xi-Trandorian forces are composed of Mind Wiped Troops. In 700, The arms race against the Que-Dan came to a head in the Wu-stead/ Pashen area, The two Tribes began to debate whose research facilities and academies were better suited the re-develop the Dreadnaught class vessels. Neither side would admit the other was better leading the two tribes to take arms against each other. The Result was the Academy war that lasted for eleven months before the Que-Dan, under the command of Prince Racine, invaded Stavin, the capitol of the Wu-stead. Instead of aiding their neighbors, the Pashen withdrew back to their aquatic worlds. With their ability to construct large-scale warships under the control of the Que-Dan, the Wu-stead had little choice but to surrender. Racine declared himself Master of the Wu-stead, enslaving the tribe to the Que-Dan, by holding the Lord Coordinator and the Consulate Members hostage on the Capitol. Racines son, Admiral Roave, began a campaign of fracturing the Star League and the Kappa, while Racine began to move out against the Pashen, using his new property as targeting systems for his Death spheres, projectiles that used the gift of an Aberyian to increase accuracy. Azrai placed his Daughter, Krishna, in command of the task force to enslave the Simbali. In 40, Azrai used a young Que-Dan named Qual-Dracul to convince the Que-Dan that the war was a rebellion against the Sovereign Emperor of the Realm and will soon be brought to conclusion with the Emperor victorious. Only the obstinate XiTrandorians will not acknowledge the sovereignty of the Emperor. Then in year 20, The Xi-Trandorians develop a super weapon that they launch toward the Que-Dan home world, Gordis. En-route, the energy wave struck a star that sent it off course and sparked an event that changed the Realm. The Coming of Novastar and the Unification War, 20-15 Years ago: Unknown to the Aberyians, The Xi-Trandorian energy wave past into an area of space inhabited by a new species, as well as, a new Realm. The natives to this realm, humans, began to search for the energy waves source by sending a young female human, Rae-Dawn Novastar to investigate in her scout ship, 1105. Year 20: Novastar is accused of being a Que-Dan spy as she is captured by a Xi-Trandorian Command craft. She escaped by taking a Xi-Trandorian solder hostage. Upon learn that once a prisoner; the solder will be executed if he returns to prevent him from being a spy. She lets him serve her and names him, Alistair. Rae-Dawn with Alistair traveled to Vailis, the R&D world of the Xi-Trandorians and destroyed the super weapon. Upon returning to her realm with the report of a first contact, the United Alliance of Worlds, the human governing body, sought to support Novastar by send the scouts, Michael Slaughter and John Doonsberry, to confirm her findings. What the trio found was a Realm at Civil war. Admiral Sorvis of the Exploration Branch of the United Alliance authorized the addition of more personnel to the Cal-Dis sector, the area nearest in proximity to the Aberyian Realm.

Par-Allushaian Amendments As Documented by Major Qual-Dracul And Captain Sorin Dracul From the Order Of the Aberyian Knights.

In the far flung regions of the area known as Wild Space, in the distant past, a world was discovered. A world of natural beauty, abundant resources and life, which filled its discoverers with a sense of accomplishment and awe, this was the world of Par-Allushia. However, the elation was short lived as an accident of mysterious means caused the Explorers to crash upon the surface, into an environment filled with danger, hostile beings and limited resources to survive. Survived they did, after 9,000 years, this band of explorers forged a civilization that thrives under hostile conditions, war-like natives and limited technology. Their cultures seem on the surface, a mirror of the Space-born realm, but underneath is a deeper more colorful world awaits.

The Wu-Stead. The Wu-stead are a tall, hairless, four-armed humanoid race with skin-tones ranging from light gold to motted browns. Their eyes are covered with an anti-glare membrane, giving the appearance of pupil-less eyes. Females have hair only on their heads. The Wu-stead are the most industrious government, having tamed steam power first. The Wu-stead have long been educators of the realm, having some of the finest academies in the world. Since its founding, the Wu-stead have always strove to be the best at what they do, to the point of believing they are the best. The Wu-stead have even created an award, the Paragon, that state the recipient is the master of his/her chosen profession. Its government is a Consulate, made up of the governors of the Wu-stead Villages and overseen by an Hereditary Coordinator. The Coordinator is the chosen ruler and advised by the Consulate. The Coordinator has final say in all matters, however the Consulate may contest his actions. Contesting is rare, as the Consulate must call for a General Population vote. If the contested action is still note resolved, an Executive Resignation may be called, with the General Population voting on the outcome. Average height and weight: 63/ 230lb The Pashen. The Pashen are a beautiful people that seem to have been crafted instead of born. At the base of the neck, Pashen have gills, as well as, pointed ears. Skin-tones range from light blue to sea-green. Hair-tones from olive green to ink black, only the Royal line has white hair. The Pashen dwell within the vast aquatic waters of the World, yet are able to survive above surface as well. The Pashens natural environment have adapted them to think in three-dimensions. Pashen know that other tribes would be uncomfortable under the waves, so they maintain floating stations above some of their Territories in the Seas. The Pashen take pride in their race, maintaining the belief contact with others should be minimized to avoid racial contamination. Their pride extends to their educational system, as Pashen universities are the best, rivaled only by the Wu-stead academies. It is the debate of who has the better knowledge that has kept the Pashen and the Wu-stead in a constant search for new Knowledge. The government is a monarchy, ruled by a Sovereign Chancellor. Average Height and Weight: 55/140lbs The Xi-Trandorians : The Xi-Trandorians stand tall, with light green to dark olive skin tones. The Military are bald with a crown braid. Civilian Males and Females have full hair covering. Both sexes are well defined physically and have an intimidating presents. The Xi-Trandorians are a mysterious people for the only contact has been with the Military or their Merchant corps. Both groups display the same qualities: a lack of emotion, self-control, and extreme doctrine and tactics. All members of the military under go a Mental Wash, forsaking completely all past memories and replacing them with military doctrine and tactics. New recruits are easy to spot and their head braid does not touch his neck. A Grand-Xalin (equal to a commodore) has a braid that loops around his right shoulder in a forazia-style, with the bottom of the loop touching mid-torso. One facet of the military is known, that all ranks are contested for in a Trial by Combat. Little is known about the civilian population, as they live in layered villages, only allowing visitors on the ground level. The Xi-traditions are ruled by the Stellar Prince. Typical Height/Weight: 63/ 220lbs The Kappa: The Kappa are a short, hairless, long-lived, tortoise-like humanoids with light green to dark gray skin tones. All Kappa have a hard shell in which they are able to pull in all extremities. Only male Kappa have a short, stubby, tail. Since, Kappa live for centuries, a large percentile of their population are still adolescents, giving the Kappa a sense of wonder lost on the other tribes. Kappa are merchants and so they do not construct warships, yet are some of the most skilled Navigators in the world. Kappa conduct trade, not out of love of money, but a love of haggling . Kappa drive a hard bargain but always a fair one, so that both parties depart satisfied. However, just because the kappa love trade, does not mean they will not fight. The Kappa are fierce warriors , skilled at the hit and fade tactics using their terrain to their advantage, as Kappa do not take invasion kindly and retaliate with a vengeance so intense, that a second invasion is unlikely. The kappa live among the other tribes and do not have a nation of their own. Typical Height/weight: 45/130lbs

The Simbali The Simbali are tall lion-like humanoids fur colors from black to calico markings. Only the royal line has Gold fur. Males have long fur that is kept neatly groomed upon the body, with a head-mane. Females have short fur on their body, yet have the head-mane as well. Males have the full feline face, while females have more of a human-like appearance. Most Simbali prize honor above all other aspects of life and prioritize their lives around this idea. Simbali hold to the concept that family is all that matters. The race as a whole is an extended family, then the Simbalis personal family, then the Simbali himself, honor is given from a Simbali in that order. Simbali maintain that the Sura-Khan, the ruler, is the head of the Simbali family and as such, much honor is given to him. The Simbali also have a rite of marriage in which the male suitor, attempts to subdue the female in one-to-one combat. Males fight unarmed, as females are armed with a shield and a pole arm. A contest is conducted between males, if more that one suitor is involved, with the Champion contending with the Bride-to-be. Average Height/Weight: 59/ 190lbs The Equali The Accursed Equali are a race with the upper torso that is human in nature and a lower torso of a four-legged equine creature. Their skin and hair-tones are that of humans, while their fur-tones are range from white to palomino. The Equali move with a sure-footedness that beguiles their clumsy appearance. The True Equali are bi-pedal humanoids that appear as humans; however, Their legs are covered with a thick down of feathers, with long feathers extending along the outside of the arms, from wrist to shoulder. The colors range from black to bright yellow. The true Equali are incapable of flight. The Equali are a Theocracy , governed by a High Priest. Their society is based on their worship of the Elders, who they believe are the example of which all tribes should follow. They have passed down from generation to generation, the Tome of Wisdom, a collection of sacred writings from the Elders. Each Elder gives practical insight into life and guidance into the Gift. The Tome is divided into sections they call books, one for each Elder. The first is called Amavoraxians, a history of the world before the elders departed to the stars. The next is called The Expansion of Aberyis, the history of the Elders journeys, ending with the discovery of Quantis, the betrayal and vanishing of the Elders. These are the only section written by the Elders own hand. Over the next two-thousand, one-hundred years, starting seven-hundred years after the Elders vanished, an Equali would rise up, guided by an Elder, and be sent to the tribe the Elder patrons and preach to that tribe. The following is the messages the Equali prophets delivered that comprise the rest of the Tome: Xi-Tranen: Discipline and Self-control, Wu-Staven: Courage and Perseverance, Pash: Conduct and Proper Living, Simbalo: Honor and Family, Equala: Love and Faith, Que-Donal: Transgression and Atonement, and Kappis: Death and Final Judgment of the Person and the Realm as a Whole by the Elders.

Average Height/Weight: 5 7/ 200lbs (Accursed); 150 lbs ( True) The Que-Dan Que-Dan are a human-like tribe with tendencies toward lighter skin-tones and darker hair colors. Only an intense medical scan will denote the slight differences between Humans and Que-Dan. Que-Dan are an independent people thriving in the Volcanic areas of the world. The Que-Dan are an industrious people, harvesting in the most hostile lands. The Que-Dan major contribution to the World is the art of Magic. All Que-Dan are Gifted and most choose the Path of the Magi. The Que-Dan are a Magocracy, ruled by a Counsel of Seven Wizards. Average Height/Weight: 5 7/ 170 lbs The Others: The World is also home to several other races, most which view the Aberyians as intruders to their home and seek to destroy them

Kappa whose gift manifest early, suffer with an inability to control it, allowing them to hear the surface thoughts of those around them. Most resort to violent actions against those around them to quiet the voices in their head. At Middle age, Kappa also experience the Nesting, when female produce eggs, (which must be fertilized before expulsion), males desire to mate, and both sexes wish to settle down to raise the offspring. Failure for females to expel fertilized eggs will result in Impaction, a condition in which eggs continue to produce, resulting in the expansion of the eggs sac that crushes the internal organs of the Female to a fatal conclusion.
