<br />
== History ==<br />
====Early History:====<br />
<br />
For an eon the clans roamed the lush continents of their homeworld as nomads, trailing the herds of their various prey. Encounters between tribes were rare, and often aggressive or violent. The clans rarely stayed long in any fixed location, as the seasons turned so did their prey migrate around the globe.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
Their infrequent meetings, and it’s accompanying aggression, severely inhibited their technological advancement. Even after a hundred thousand years following this lifestyle the Yautja ancestry continued in this fashion, following the food across continents. Speech was well developed, but extremely narrow. Each clan had their own dialect and few could communicate with other tribes.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
The ages passed and the clans continued in their primitive state, chasing the twin suns as they hunted. Many millennia onwards and their way of life was thrust into a race for survival. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
A large asteroid of unknown origin smashed into their world and tore it’s continents from their bedrock. The entire planet rapidly heated and became a baked desert world, it’s environment now hostile to most forms of large life, many perished in a short period of time, whole clans were wiped out and the majority of the fauna the Yautja depended on to feed were decimated. Faced with cooperation or death, the survivors gradually grouped together to honor the fallen and to endure the disaster.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the landscape permanently disfigured, barren and strewn with the remains of countless lives the Yautja were forced to advance rapidly or face extinction. The remaining clans came together and pooled all their knowledge, resources and skills and elected a body of the wisest Yautja in hope of guidance to a return to their former strength. This guiding entity would later become the Council of Ancients.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Reformation:====<br />
<br />
For centuries after the disaster that befell their world the clans struggled to survive, but the Council of Ancients was the light in the darkness that had enveloped the landscape.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Strict disciplinary action on what, where and when the clans could hunt was the first edict set in stone. For if what little of the food supply that remained were to be hunted into extinction, then the entirety of the race would face annihilation. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Prior to the disaster, the clans had a loose system of religious beliefs that varied mightily. Some clans held animilistic beliefs, others held the belief that the two orbs in the sky were gods, some had no beliefs at all. The Council of Ancients, seeking to centralize the clans, saw the benefit in an organized religious system, one to which could help to drive the clans forward and out of the wastes of their battered homeworld. They were quick to seek out the wisest of the surviving Seers and Shamans and quicker still to set them to work on centralizing the myriad of religious systems into one. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Nytara and N’ithya, old names for the two stars in the sky, were adopted as the father and mother pairing who travelled the universe looking to create their offspring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon reaching what would become the homeworld of the clans, Nytara and N’ithya found Ger’Cetanun, a great titan made up of rock that rested upon the planet. Tired and battered from their journey, the two gods wished to rest but Ger’Cetanun would not allow it and demanded the interlopers move along. Facing exhaustion if they continued on without pause, Nytara and N’ithya fought the titan until they defeated it, crushing its inflexible, jagged body into rubble. In the brief span before his demise Ger’Cetanun swore he would return and seek vengeance. His proclamation made, Ger’Cetanun shattered into millions of pieces with his remains settling to become the planetary ring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Having dispersed Ger’Cetanun across the skies Nytara and N’ithya dwelled heavily on his warnings of vengeance. Knowing deep within themselves he would one day return to take his revenge, the gods decided to create the perfect warriors born of their blood. Beings that could one day stand against Ger’Cetanun and vanquish him for eternity. Drawing upon the spilt blood of Nytara pooled in the skies, N’ithya sent it falling to the planetary surface, swirling around as they fell the pools of blood split and scattered into a thousand droplets which rained down on the world. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon striking the surface each droplet crystalised in the ground leaving intricate patterns in their wake, owing to the creationary nature of Nytara’s blood and the blessings of N’ithya, these patterns would later begin to replicate in the surrounding environment and later still would become the sigils of each clan. Everywhere the blood struck life blossomed, jungles sprouted and plains grew, over the course of 3 years Nytara and N’ithya nurtured the world into a landscape of immense dangers and strength. The gods poured their energies into the planet and vastly accelerated the development of it’s flora and fauna until they deemed it ready for their offspring.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Cetanu Crisis:====<br />
<br />
In the depths of empty space a dark seed began to stir. Left by Ger’Ceteanun long ago this seed would grow to become his vengeance, his legacy of destruction and suffering. Cetanu, the black death.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Like his father before him Cetanu was a Titan. Owing to the deep connection Ger’Cetanun had with Cetanu while he was developing lightyears away, Cetanu imbibed many of the strengths and traits N’ithya and Nytara presented in their battle with his father. This adaptation would give Cetanu an edge Ger’Cetanun was greatly missing and make his resurgence all the more devastating. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
From the dark shadows of the stellar void Cetanu observed the planet his father had resided upon and saw that the two gods had created a formidable race of warriors in their image. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Over the ages, Cetanu prepared himself for battle with the interloper race to which had laid claim to the homeworld of his father. Once the time was right, Cetanu fulfilled his destiny and unleashed himself onto the homeworld of the trespassers, destroying the majority of the planet and the warrior race to which staked their claim. Cetanu could not fully fulfill his destiny though. The warrior race turned out to be much stronger than he had anticipated. They crawled up from the fires of extinction and vowed to eliminate Cetanu. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the clans re-established themselves, and their religion became more organized, Cetanu was eventually adopted into the pantheon as the embodiment of death, and the ultimate warrior to which the hunters would strive to defeat in battle. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the ages passed the hunters and their faith developed, the pantheon grew larger. Gods and goddesses symbolizing various real world aspects were added to the Pantheon.<br />
<br />
<br />
====The separation of the castes:====<br />
<br />
To further centralize their burgeoning civilization, the Council of Ancients decreed that a focus needed to be placed on the rapid development of technology and industry. The families to which had their skills centered around the trades, arts, and sciences were conscripted and let loose to conduct their work, under the leadership of the warrior caste - who had always led the clans. Due to their vital work, the council of ancients made it law that the offspring of all members of the trade caste would be educated in the ways of their elders, to ensure that there would be a continuity of knowledge and that no momentum would be lost. <br />
<br />
<br />
====Advancement:====<br />
<br />
The process of moving forward wasn’t without it’s cost. The planet did not properly begin to cool and stabilize for many millennia, making the simplest tasks difficult and treacherous at the best of times. Brute strength, perseverance, and a refusal to see their honor tarnished through failure, allowed the clans to keep moving forward.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
During the Ikthala Reformation, the hunters saw their creation by the twin gods as an act of creating the perfect race. This dogma began to propagate throughout their society, it’s roots being in their survival after the arrival of Cetanu. It was believed that the gods had blessed them with their perfect forms, and surviving Cetanu had reinforced this belief of divine heritage.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Elements of proclamations made just after Centanu’s arrival remained. The hunters were kept in check via strict discipline within their clans, a remnant of when order was key for survival. Unruly, treacherous, and unhinged members were remanded and punished harshly, sometimes via exile but often through capital punishment. At times there were such egregious acts committed that the stain of imperfection from the act sunk deep into the guilty hunters clan. In cases like these the clan was exterminated to prevent the act from recurring and from the dishonor spreading. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Within the stabilization period there was a quick advancement in technology. The clans saw remarkable scientific breakthroughs over the next 10 millenia. Dirt and rubble evolved into brick and mortar, bronze and tin into iron and then steel, and so on. From industrial, to atomic, to digital, the hunters were an intelligent species that, once given proper direction, could perform remarkable feats. As they progressed, the clans began to view their technological prowess as an extension to their divine strength. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As their technological level progressed, so did their society. The strict decrees set forth by the Council of Ancients evolved into an overarching set of laws that began to govern all facets of society. The issue of union, the value of work and trade, how hunts were properly performed all fell under this new code of honor. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Soon enough the hunters had reached the age of space flight. They were able to explore the other planets in their system and see for themselves the entirety of their cradle. As the hunters began to explore the other worlds in their system they discovered the next planet out from theirs was rife with life. The hunters were not alone in the universe.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the fauna on their planet still limited, the clans began visiting their neighboring world and hunting the local alien species, both for sustenance and as a source for honing their skills. As the millenia passed the clans were able to explore further and further, eventually reaching the point where they were able to touch other stars. Upon setting foot on planets underneath other stars, the hunters began to see the universe as being theirs by divine right, bestowed onto them by their creators. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Although long ago, the damage to their homeworld was near irreparable. This drove the clans to begin seeking out territory elsewhere. While countless clans continued to reside on the homeworld, many created large vessels and set forth into the stars, returning to their nomadic roots and roaming the stars, calling no place but their vessel home. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the hunters touched other star systems, they came into contact with other sentient life. Most of the species they encountered were in much lower technological states than them, and were incapable of warding off the hunters however, most had individuals or groups that were able to provide ample sport or fodder to the burgeoning clans. Worthy specimens were seized from their homeworlds and planted onto reserves so as not to disrupt the natural ecosystems and destroy the future of the stock, for the hunters had learned how valuable ecological and biological balance is.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
After asserting their strength across the near galaxy the Hunter Clans settled into a lethargic routine. Periodically hunting the many worlds within their expansive domain, they did nothing in a hurry as their lives grew long and their hunts became leisure and pride over necessity. This state is how they have existed for over a thousand years, and how they will continue for a thousand more.<br />
<br />
== Biology ==<br />
The hunters are an endothermic bipedal reptilian species. They have limited sexual dimorphism and both genders mature at similar rates and to similar builds. The species grows to be between 6 and 8 feet, and an average mature individual rounds out at around 500lbs. <br />
<br />
<br />
The species can live upwards of 2,000 years, though there are accounts of members of the species living 2,500 or more. Members of the species live very arduous and brutal lives, and incur great amounts of physical damage through their lifetimes. This fact sees many individuals dying ‘early’ with the average life expectancy of the species therefore around 800-1,000 years.<br />
<br />
<br />
Females are the birthing gender in the species. Hunters have a very long gestation period, lasting around 3 years. Infants ‘pups’ are born live, though encased in a hard embryonic sac. The struggle to breakfree from the sac is a difficult process, but it assists pups in quickly developing their muscles. Not all pups are able to break free from their sacs, and it is common within the darwinian culture of the hunters to allow for those pups to die - as these are seen as imperfect offspring and were not meant for life. Pups who are successfully reared reach puberty at around 100 years, with maturity occuring at the 200 year mark <br />
<br />
<br />
The hunters are a carnivorous species, their diet consisting of protein and lipid rich meats. They are incapable of processing carbohydrates, their livers being unable to break them down. This evolutionary dependence on meat has resulted in the species not having established any crop growing agriculture systems. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have very large hearts, and a strong cardiovascular system that has allowed for their large growth. Subsequently, this has resulted in the hunters generating great amounts of body heat. This heat is regulated via a set of tentacles, akin to dreadlocks, that extend from the back and side of their skulls. These dreadlocks shed waste heat from the body and continue to grow until death. The removal of one's dreadlocks is a death sentence, as soon after their bodies will cook their own organs until death. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have 4 mandibles that protrude from the front of their face that surround the entrance to their mouth. These mandibles are tightly pressed to the entrance to their mouth, making the process of opening their mouth somewhat difficult. This has resulted in the species developing a language centered around the use of clicks and rattles to which they form with the use of their mandibles. There are a number of sensory organs lining each mandible which are able to pick up small changes in air pressure and detect aromas in the air.<br />
<br />
<br />
The species sight is in the infrared spectrum, allowing them all weather, all day vision. Their eyes are protected by several membrane layers that protect against the environment and soft debris. <br />
<br />
<br />
Phenomenal strength is a hallmark of the species with the average mature individual able to jump three times their height, and easily capable of ripping flesh from bone and in some cases directly parting bones from bodies regardless of the flesh attached. Due to minimal sexual dimorphism in the species, males and females gain the same amount of muscle mass and grow to near identical sizes. <br />
<br />
<br />
Their bodies are incredibly resilient, being able to endure significant damage before critical failures begin to occur. The majority of their skeletal structure is made up of a weaved network of bone and cartilage that helps to protect and cushion against blunt force trauma.<br />
<br />
<br />
Thick quills grow over time on the face, back and chest of the species. These quills act as a defence mechanism, but also as a sign of maturity and one's position within society. Quills begin growing shortly after a pup breaks free of it’s sac, and they appear black and are pliable, but turn grey and brittle in old age. As a Hunter grows it will lose many quills throughout its lifetime, and while they do grow back with time, each new set is less durable than the one that came before it.<br />

Clan Leaders have participated in countless hunts, killed many rivals, and gained a lifetime of honor and prestige. Clan Leaders hold their position until dying in combat. Clan Leaders can go on to become sitting members on the council of Ancients.<br />
</tab><br />
<tab name="Clan Elders"><br />
*'''Through strength I endure, through endurance I age. With age I grow wise, with wisdom I rise.'''<br />
*The oldest, wisest and strongest of all Hunters within a specific clan.<br />

They are older Hunters who have made a name for themselves by becoming masters of specific skills. They will often lead hunting expeditions, and have near sole authority in choosing which members of the clan participate. Elders will vy to become Clan Leaders once their current Clan leader perishes.<br />

=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*For as long as Hunters have traveled the stars, there has always been a lingering concern: what happens when equipment falls into the wrong hands? One solution was the self-destruct mechanism within every Blooded’s wrist-bracer. However, there was still a further problem should a Hunter be incapacitated or killed before the Self-destruct mechanism is triggered. In most situations, the fallen’s clan would be responsible for retrieval/destruction of the lost gear or bodies. However, in the event of a tomb being desecrated or a similar situation that requires discretion, a specialist is an option. Clan Luar’Ke is an otherwise average clan on the surface, to discourage interlopers or those who would interfere in their duties. Most Blooded members of Clan Luar’Ke are trained heavily in infiltration and achieving their objectives with minimal footprint through Ikthya-de Chiva, the Umbra Trials.<br />
*In the event their services are required, a seeker is notified by a Clan Luar’ke intermediary and through the proper channels is provided the circumstances and details surrounding the missing gear/body: last known location of the items in question, possible events surrounding the lost items, and potential obstacles that would be in the seeker’s path. The seeker is not informed to which clan has made contact, or which clan the missing gear belongs to. The only relevant information is anything that assists the seeker in accomplishing their objective. The seeker is then sent in either solo or in a very small team to resolve the situation. The seeker or seeker team typically has compartmentalized objectives to accomplish:<br />
# Locate and retrieve/destroy all lost pieces of equipment as well as Hunter corpses if applicable.<br />
# If any research or data has been accomplished involving Hunter biology or equipment, destroy or render said data/research useless.<br />
# Leave no/minimal evidence of Hunter involvement.<br />
# Keep damage to structures and environments to a minimum unless necessary for success of objectives 1 through 3.<br />
*Upon success of gear and body retrieval or destruction, the seeker or seeker team notifies the intermediary who then arranges a delivery of the missing equipment, or informs the clan of the resolution. The seekers of Clan Luar’Ke are never to know which clan they assisted, nor will the clan involved ever know who assisted them. There is no room for glory or validation in such a crucial task, Clan Luar’Ke will do it because it must be done.<br />

====Clan Bo'ytill, the Heathens.====<br />

*<span style="background:green">Novacti - Stry-kther Bo'ytill</span><br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
*The clan of the Bo’ytill’s was made up by different sects, each following their own style of life. These different styles of life made the clan interesting, however, it was still a clan and the ruling elders and the clan leader ensured that tradition was followed. Tradition like the blooding ceremony, and the fact that the Bo’ytill clan was a clan of heathens. Oftentimes, those persecuted for their beliefs, or lack thereof would come to the Bo’ytill’s to take on their way of life.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
*The Bo’ytill clan was hidden in an eastern quadrant of Yautja prime, far secluded from the others, as they habilitated their own way of life in a more isolated section of the planet. They used this to their advantage, the isolation enabling the ability to practice their heathen culture without being associated as outcasts in the standard Yautja culture. They also used the isolation as a benefit enabling them to hunt, without worry of outer distractions. But as we all know, nothing can last forever, and hunts to far away planets would occur.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
*The process to attain the status of blooded in the Bo’ytill clan was gruesome. It was like other clan’s blooding rites, but if you failed three times, you were dragged to a stone pillar, clamped, and the younglings who were worthy of their own lives killed you. The spot over the years had been stained with the greenish blood of the Yautja deemed unworthy to live. If you managed to survive the blooding process, and attained the status of blooded, you were given the respect you deserved. Kar-ata had succeeded in his blooding on the first attempt, as most did. It was not an easy task, but the elders didn’t want to kill off their youth, and so they ensured that they were trained and taught well.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
*The isolation enjoyed by the Bo’ytill’s enabled them to hunt without worry about interference of other clans or outer impacts, yet over time, prey dwindled. The fact that they lived in a world that had been ravaged by Cetanu made things a tad difficult. With this in mind, the elders permitted hunts outside of Yautja prime, far away on planets such as LV-624 and Shiva’s Snowball. With new hunting grounds open to them, the Bo’ytill’s hunts grew gruesome. Their savagery was intense, and they fought like beasts. Honourable beasts! They claimed many trophies for their glory, and their feasts were always hearty. Maybe even as much as a hunter’s heart.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
*Respect and tradition. A large factor of the Bo’ytill clan was the respect. Your status earned you respect. Should you fail to respect them, the clan name, or the honor code, you were severely punished. Whippings were common for miscreants, and the loss of a mandible, or finger was not too rare either. In some cases, as a capital punishment, one would be chained to a coloumn and their dreadlocks removed. You followed the code and you listened to your elders, or you wouldn’t like the consequence, especially if important rules are breached. The working castes earned their pride through their crafts, yet the truly honorable were the hunters, those who could prove their worth and deserving of respect on the hunting grounds.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
As stated in the overview of the Bo’ytill clan, there were different sects, or branches of the clan. Listed below are some of these sects. They each have their own hierarchy, but it has no authority over those outside of its own, and the leaders inside are still subject to the rule of the clan elders.<br />
*One of these was the Thwei, a word which means “Blood” in the language of the Hunters. They were a group that was renowned for their bloodlust. It was they that had first come to the elders, seeking permission to extend their hunts deeper. With the request approved, Thwei was hunting on planets all around the galaxy.<br />
*Another of the sects was The Forgers of N'ithya D’lex. N’ithya being rock, or Earth, and D’lex being a strong crystalline material used for building. Both warriors and forgers belonged to this sect, the forgers themselves were often the primary workers, but warriors and blooded interested in crafting their own weapon often came to learn and make a blade suited for their own style of fighting. This sect was somewhat secluded inside the original stance of the Bo’ytill culture, for the reason that they respected the Goddess Dlex, in secret. Not worshipped, no, respected, acknowledged, but never worshipped.<br />
*The Bhu’ja Dekna. Those of the Bhu’ja Dekna tracked their prey and prepared. They always planned ahead. Moved for weeks on end, moving from target to target, trying to find one who was truly worthy of a fight. They carefully picked their target, stalked, and struck. Careful was their name, precision was their game. Their hunting skills were on par with the Thwei, but their style varied greatly. They were robust at all manners of tracking, and knew when the time was right to strike. But never did they dare breach the honor code, hunting a weakened target, or such, for they knew the dishonor would net them a heavy punishment by the elders.<br />
*The Mo'ta'yar. The name alone being mentioned is enough to put an entire room to silence. It stood for ‘Keepers of the Code’, as the sect’s sole purpose was ensuring the Honor Code is followed, severely punishing those who broke it. Such sects existed in practically every clan to this day, it was found by no other than the Bo’ytill’s founder, Mateon-O. The sect had one of the most important duties of them all, to protect the honor of the clan by severely punishing those who break it, from severe beatings to executions, the Enforcers never failed in their task. Such an important wing of the clan was entrusted to no one else but the Clan Leader’s mate, Ma’tak-O. Se held the rank of High Enforcer, one of the many duties an Elder may be chosen for. Ma’tak-O expected nothing less from her mate, he began recruiting from the Elites of the clan for the sect, for there was no enforcing of the Honor Code without the Enforcers. <br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
<br />
Matean-O, an elder of Na’Kuel, one very worshipping and praising of gods, seeking that everything he did pleased their gods. However, after multiple encounters, and failures to please these gods Matean-O, enraged, stricken and determined that the gods were false and his whole life was a lie, fled. He took his mate with him, and rallied any others that should follow, this of course enraged the elders, in which they ordered Matean-O to leave, driving him far to the Eastern Quadrant of Yautja Prime, the Bo’ytill’s new resting place for the years to come. Word was quick, as the clan was small. They adapted the name Bo’ytill’s, Bo’ytill standing for True-Seer, or Perfect sight, adopting this name, as Matean-O fully convinced the Bo’ytills that their decision and sight was correct, the gods were false, and they would make, and alter their destiny, not some false idols...<br />
<br />
Lokath’Dag looked to Matean-O and calmly said “Matean, you have come before us on, as you say, a matter of extreme urgency, tell us. What is the problem?”<br />
The elders looked expectantly at Matean-O, who began by saying, <br />
“Years. For so many years I worshipped the gods above all else. But do you know what came of that?”<br />
At this, the elders looked towards one another, then turned back to Matean-O. <br />
“Nothing! Those… those gods are nothing but children’s tales! Meant to keep us in line. They are nothing! I devoted everything to them, but I got nothing in return, not even acknowledgement!”<br />
“Where are you going with this, Matean-O?”<br />
“It’s over. These so-called ‘gods’ are not in any way real. Can’t you see that?”<br />
Lokath'Dag nodded to himself, then looked back and forth to the others. They nodded in unison. <br />
“Go.”<br />
“What?” Matean-O took a step back, startled. “You won’t even hear me out?”<br />
Lokath'Dag slowly stood up and walked over to Matean-O. <br />
“No Matean. You have disrespected our ways! You have brought shame on yourself, coming to us like this! You, of all people. I cannot believe what I am seeing.” Lokath took a step back and calmed himself down before saying.“Matean. I do not know what has gotten into you. Go home and think. Think about what you’re saying. Rest my friend.”<br />
<br />
That night Matean made up his mind. He went to his mate, and had them get ready to leave. After getting everything ready, Matean went to face the elders. For what he hoped would be the last time.<br />
“Matean, at this time of hour? Have you come to your senses?”<br />
“It is you who must come to your senses Lokath. You still don’t get it, do you? I must say I pity you.”<br />
“It is I who pity you Matean. You know that you are no longer welcome here. You must go. Far. Far east. And never return here. You are no longer welcome.” Lokath, sighed, before turning back and leaving the room.<br />
“I will miss you old friend.” Matean said, but alas, only the empty chamber heard it…<br />
<br />
Matean took his mate, and those who he had managed to convince, and fled, heading due east. To start a new life for himself. But not only for himself. He was going to start his own clan, one where you weren’t punished just because you didn’t worship idols. He named his clan “Bo’ytill” which means True-Seer, or Perfect Sight. For he had seen the truth. And he wanted to share it. He wanted to share it with everyone he could.<br />

<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
The Nhon Clan is often regarded as one of the few remaining purely confident clans, often boasting so many young they had to inhabit a whole planet, one where they are often found hosting prolific gladiator matches in the cities testing the young in Blooding Rituals. Nhon members are often known for being the most unashamed hunter, often just walking around without using their cloaking device to test the prey nearby, anyone who had the guts to challenge them would often find them on the floor with their helmets missing afterwards as a trophy, a Nhon trademark. The clan is much more than that, boasting many academic schools of teaching, some featuring; anatomy, psychology, philosophy, and of course the art of war and the act of hunting. While also having many sources of literature which is often looked down upon, however many elites and elders might want to chronicle their life for the young ones to find inspiration and drive to become the best yautja ever. The clan is much more of a society that was looked down upon for their vast knowledge in anything they could come to possess.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
The Nhon clan have expanded so much over the years they can come to inhabit a planet known as Jiralhos, this planet large enough to be habitable for many species for the Nhon clan to hunt and still live peacefully in their multiple cities spanning acrossing the globe. The cities have vast variety in each depending on the sect of Nhon you find yourself in, from marketplace, schools, temples, and coliseums the cities have a lot to offer for the Nhon members. Multiple sects are known for having their very own species preservation which consists of a vast ecosystem filled with multiple strong creatures to hunt and observe for the Nhon.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
The Nhon clan blooding ritual is a much tougher ordeal than is standard, due to high expectations the leaders have for every hunter, and the principles the clan tends to follow. In order to even attempt the ritual, an Unblooded must meet the following criteria:<br />
<br />
- A tie or greater in a spar versus a Blooded hunter.<br />
- A passing score on a mental aptitude test.<br />
- Has made active contributions to areas of learning or debate.<br />
- A vouch from a Blooded hunter (not the one they sparred with, however).<br />
<br />
Once an Unblooded has qualified for the Blooding Ritual, they are taken to a gladiatorial arena located on the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos. This is where they must pass two trials:<br />
<br />
The Trial of Prowess - Two human gladiators are released into the arena, the Unblooded’s objective is to defeat the two gladiators without killing them, if the gladiators land four hits (two each) on the Unblooded, the trial is failed. If the gladiators are killed, the trial is failed. The objective of this trial is to prove that the Unblooded has the precision, prowess, and restraint enough to accomplish victory without killing anything in an outnumbered battle.<br />
<br />
The Trial of Solidarity - Once the gladiators are defeated, a Tier Three R’ka (usually a Praetorian or a Ravager) is released into the arena. The Unblooded’s goal is to kill it, however after sixty seconds, Tier One R’ka will begin being released into the arena. The Unblooded MUST NOT kill any Tier One R’ka, their only goal is to kill the Tier Three and escape the arena with the body intact. This will become their first trophy and allow them to become a Blooded member of <br />
the Nhon clan.<br />
<br />
Failed Rituals<br />
<br />
In the Nhon clan, Unbloodeds who have failed the Blooding Ritual will be forced to work as a pseudo-slave for one of the busier Blooded members for five years. While it is a distinctly unpleasant experience, there have very rarely been hunters who failed again after enduring these gruelling years.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
The hunt is considered to be the Nhon Clans favorite activity.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
Leader Rhuu’Nhon’s Helmet Stash<br />
<br />
Amongst some of the Nhon hunters, there have been many rumblings about Rhuu’Nhon’s trophy collection. Many have seen Rhuu take helmets for trophies, but her trophy room contains none of them. In addition to this, there is an unmarked attached room by Rhuu’Nhon’s private quarters, that she does not let any hunters enter. This has all but confirmed, in the eyes of her clan members, that she keeps an entire private room exclusively for helmets she has collected, which they consider quite amusing.<br />
<br />
Nhon Artists<br />
<br />
Many of the creative Blooded clan members within the clan have taken up “art”, after one of the hunters brought back a human artbook, and the competitive blood within them sparked a desire to prove they are better “artists” than any human. The art faction is constantly growing, now having their own dedicated rooms and even beginning to map out their own hub.<br />
<br />
Statue of the Founder<br />
<br />
In the central hub of the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos , there is a statue that was built hollow, and the body of the founding member was placed inside. None of the hunters have found any records as to why this was done, but they do not deny that it makes them feel closer to the Founder. Some hunters believe that every few years his spirit returns to gaze upon the clan he built once more.<br />
<br />
Hot Blood<br />
<br />
Due to the constant self-improvement philosophy of the clan, many of the hunters within it possess extremely competitive personalities. The desire to prove they truly are the best is so prevalent that entire days have been spent bickering over things as minor as handwriting and effigy crafting.<br />
<br />
Other Clans<br />
<br />
The official status that the Nhons have towards other clans is, generally, “We’re smarter than you, and better hunters too!” However, when another clan demonstrates knowledge or prowess that is largely unknown to the Nhons, they will usually send emissaries or powerful hunters to try and gain the knowledge they’re missing out on. Truly incorrigible.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
(N/A)<br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
K’zar-Nhon<br />
<br />
K’zar-Nhon was the first and founding member of the Nhon clan, exiled from his birth clan for not being enough of a “hunter” in the clan’s eyes, he turned to creating his own clan of hunters to spread his way of hunting and living to others, in the hopes to one day create the perfect Yautja - both a scholar and a hunter.<br />

=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''Spetr - Do'Iash De'Rojok'''<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*An obscure but old Yautja Clan, the De’Rojok Clan, also known as the ‘Coroners’ or ‘Record Keepers’ is mostly dedicated to S’ahul and The Literary Art. Unlike other clans, the Coroners are often seen collecting pieces of literature from other alien races, such as humans. These are more or less discarded shortly after a full read but on some rare occasions may find their place in the clan’s Library as pieces of entertainment or an analogical look at humanity’s psychological or anatomical make-up. <br />
<br />
*The De’Rojok Clan’s warriors are known to use thrown weapons and often carry a combi-stick.<br />
<br />
*While all Yautja Hunters take trophies, a member of the Record Keepers also carries along a journal and an incredibly sharp but durable pen. Using the back of the pen, the Yautja draws some of its own blood and uses it to write down his kill, it’s habits, any defining features, the time to kill and finally, the killing blow. This serves to remind the hunter that every kill takes blood and sweat, and to ensure the Yautja betters himself with every kill. Writing in the book is not an immediate action following a kill, but it is recommended to note the details down as soon as possible<br />
<br />
*Writing a whole book is generally seen as a sign of great prestige and dedication, the book being quickly deposited in the clan’s library along with many others, in order to become lectures of youngbloods.<br />

====Clan Mei'ka, the Maidens.====<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''Unknownity - Shi'rei Mei'ka'''<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
* The Mei'ka clan is a clan once filled with tragedy and now reformed as the ashes of the remaining members rose up to take back what is theirs. It was once an average clan and now it is a clan dedicated to Dtekale and their faith is all around her. The clan is made out of females only who have found a different desire and purpose where they would be shunned or even killed by other clans if known about it. Their desire is all about the Hunt to succeed and show Dtekale their might and skills and strengthen their spirit.<br />
======Location:======<br />
* The clan’s home is located in the southern quadrant of ████ Prime where religion isn’t as completely centralized thus other clans who live nearby do not mind how the Mei’ka clan portrays the Goddess Dtekale differently. Wherever the Mei'ka clan is, there will always be a temple nearby dedicated to Dtekale. The clan is currently expanding its hunting outposts and temples beyond the home planet.<br />
======Religion:======<br />
* The Mei’ka clan is highly religious only towards a specific deity which is the Goddess of women and birth, Dtekale. The Goddess is portrayed differently by the clan, having a larger emphasis on women. The widows questioned why there is a god for women but not for men. They believe only certain females could become hunters. They believe the raw strength and strive for the hunt which isn’t common for females was a sign that they had Dtekale’s spirit within them. Their conclusion about why most females didn’t have the Goddess’ spirit was due to them becoming child makers and mates as it made them weak and lose their strive to hunt and rather stay at home. Not having the spirit of the Goddess was a sign of weakness for them and they would do anything to keep the spirit inside them or else they would lose their respect for their fellow sisters and be kicked out of the clan or be transferred to the working caste or turned into a serf.<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
* The Blooding rite for the Mei’ka clan is very demanding and difficult for most female Yautja as it revolves around the strive and desire to hunt which most females do not have. For one to complete their Blooding rite, they have proven themselves to bear the spirit of Dtekale. If they were to fail the rite, the un-blooded would receive harsh punishments in return, they were then taken to the clan’s Shaman for them to attempt to wake their spirit of Dtekale. If they failed the rite a second time, then they had no place in the clan’s finest and were given labor roles and remain unblooded for their life, that is if they lived.<br />
* The Mei’ka blooding rite has 3 main principles:<br />
# The rite must be considered already challenging to male hunters<br />
# The main objective is to secure a trophy of the prey you were given to hunt<br />
# You are required to be stripped of everything but a single spear and loincloths to achieve the same experience as Dtekale had during her age of being inside a mortal body<br />
======Reputation:======<br />
* The Mei’ka clan has an interesting reputation among other clans who know them, especially those who knew the Mei’ka clan before its revision. Due to the infamous disappearance of all the males in the clan, other clans believe they had to be involved with the disappearance as how could all the males disappear without a trace? Due to that, those who knew about the old Mei’ka clan, do not trust the current one and avoid them with their best effort. Because of the Mei’ka clan rejecting the traditional purpose of a female Yautja, they are generally disliked by traditionalists. Mei’ka views females of other clans as weak unless they are a part of the warrior caste and have no mate. Due to their stance about having a mate and becoming a child-maker, other clans have started calling them the Maidens.<br />
======History:======<br />
* Founded by Bokahn Mei’ka, the clan was originally just like any other clan as they had the same practices and standards. The clan had a special event that occurred once every four years and lasted two months where all the males in the clan went away to partake in a large hunting party and returned with a large feast to share with the females. Even the males in the working caste joined the event to help the warriors in particular activities where they couldn’t do it on their own. However one fateful event, they never returned. Their ship went missing and it couldn’t be tracked, the same goes for the gear the males had. They all disappeared without a trace and many conspiracies were formed by other clans who knew the Mei’ka clan. Some conspiracies talked about how the females sabotaged the ship and the gear to disable their tracking systems and sent the ship far into the unknown where it could never be found, some conspiracies simply say that the ship was sucked into a black hole or was completely disintegrated by unknown means. What was known is that they are all gone and will never come back. The remaining females in the clan were now called the widows by other clans and subsequently, the clan itself was called the widow clan. Instead of dissolving the clan, they decided to change it completely to the point of it being entirely different. They believed to be lucky to survive the extinction of their old clan, they believed Dtekale protected them and thus centered the clan around her and about women. The incident is now a reminder and curse to them, to never allow males into the clan or else they would suffer the same fate, not because they hated males or thought they were superior to them. The new founder Kay’ta Mei’ka returned the clan from its ashes and became a sanctuary for females who rejected their purpose to bear pups and have mates and rather focused on The Hunt. Currently, nobody still knows what happened to the males and the truth will never come to light.<br />

<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
A ship-based clan of gluttons and seasoned killers, the Ka'uliik are sustenance hunters. A burgeoning clan with a population still rising to this day, the Ka’uliik are more focused on sustaining their clan than glory alone. Strong in their reverence to Tharda and Paya alike, these carnivores have become passionate gourmands with a bottomless stomach.<br />
======History:======<br />
The Ka’uliik’s origins start from a single Yautja: Zu-G’ki’ke. One of noble birth born thousands of years ago, he was destined for greatness. By all accounts, he was an absolute powerhouse of a Yautja. An incredible stature, dreadlocks down to his hips, and strength enough to lift lesser Yautja with a single hand; let alone puncture clan armor with only his thumb claws. His success as a Hunter led to his success as a mate, fathering thousands of children. He led his harem, his progeny, and those that would follow him to his ideal of a promised land; a lush world teeming with thrillingly dangerous life. They hngs haad become a new clan; the Ka’uliik, with Zu-G’ki’ke as their ancestral Clan Leader. However, thid taken a turn for the worse. Even after their leader’s passing at four thousand years old, his newfound Clan was rapidly exploding in population, and this overgrowth meant a demand for food. Within thousands of years, the Ka’uliik’s skilled Hunters had picked clean nearly all edible prey on their homeworld, and there was scarce left to eat. Zu-G’ki’ke’s grandchild, Clan Leader at the time, diverted their resources and metalworking to the creation of a single ship to perform their exodus. Though they were at quite an old age when the vessel was completed, the deed was done. This had become the ship Agaj’ya, and forever would the Ka’uliik travel nomadically from place to place, Hunters by obligation.<br />
======Clan Structure======<br />
The Ka’uliik have their residence in a particularly massive ship. Shaking the trend of other clans to live in a variety of vessels, their homeship Agaj’ya is very densely populated, one of the largest and most well-inhabited vessels known to Yautjakind, and still being expanded to this day. Living conditions are rather difficult due to the sheer amount of mouths to feed, and living space is often cramped. They are known to be less wealthy than others, resources being shared among a collective whole. They are tightly-knit community, residents all doing their part to help the clan succeed. This has given their clan an egalitarian mindset out of necessity; age and sex are much less of a barrier than other clans, barring diseases and deformities, anyone can and should hunt. All occupations are of equal value and importance, and anyone from ferocious Hunters to the workers that forge their weapons are focused on ensuring their siblings thrive despite scarcity<br />
======Religion:======<br />
The Ka’uliik observe their deadly duo, Tharda and Paya, with great reverence. Their lifestyle focuses around appeasing their Gods, ritually imbibing near-every part of their prey on their behalf. Nothing is wasted and every part is used, in accordance with their belief that their Gods have given their clan the ability to absorb the strength from their prey upon consuming them, and sharing their quarry amongst the Clan strengthens it as a whole. <br />
After killing their prey, it is field dressed. During the process, a Hunter will call upon Paya and Tharde to observe their work, and to dedicate the prey’s body parts to them. Every possible cut of meat, skins, furs, and scales are all taken. Blood is drunk or otherwise used for rituals, and bones are ground down to bone meal. Sinews, fat and organs all have their use as well.<br />
A small portion of the prey may be consumed by the Hunter themselves, to strengthen them for what is to come, and to ensure they do not go hungry while there’s work to be done. However, the bulk of the quarry’s ‘byproducts’ are returned to their ship and packed away. The theft of food or even a stolen jawbone is the fastest way to draw the Ka’uliik’s ire.<br />
======Behavior======<br />
While all members of the clan naturally have their own way of going about hunting game, there is often some division between older or younger members. '''This ain’t mandatory, just flavor, do what you like.'''<br />
<br />
Older members of the clan, typically at the least Elites, are more cool-headed and go about their killing in a ‘sportier’ manner. They are likely to make a game of tracking down their quarry, and might even announce to their chosen mark that they are coming. Whips are commonly seen in their hands, used to torture prey and ensure that more of the corpse can be used. They are typically of a more refined palate given the wide range of food they’ve eaten and cooked, and have specific sorts of prey they hunt; claiming them to be of utmost flavor. They are also known to rarely use their cloaking devices, preferring to chase down their prey and frighten them to ‘get the juices flowing.’<br />
<br />
Younger members of the clan, inexperienced as they may be, vibrate with bloodlust and reek of aggression. They hunt as animals do, typically using their wristblades to get up close and personal. Having a burning hunger, an overall higher amount of energy available to them, and a less experienced palate means that younger Blooded tend to eat with little preference towards or against certain meals. The younger members also typically go without their cloaking devices, appreciating the value of a good chase.<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
The Blooding ritual is, of course, meant to prepare up and coming hunters for the real deal. After completing their training in the operation of their (limited) weapons, bioscans are used to locate a world with dangerous prey. A ship full of twelve to forty Unblooded and a single experienced older hunter are sent out, the engine forcibly disabled for a year; stranding the would be Hunters on their new grounds. In most cases, at least one of the tireless sprats will die. In very rare cases, the ship will never return; the world being earmarked as a place of interest. However, the ritual does not see its end once the vessel returns. Each hunter is expected to bring back triple their weight in fresh kill, and furthermore expected to prepare and host a feast for their homeship. The killed prey is taken with the would-be Blooded, and butchered directly in front of the high-ranks judging them. This is to ensure the trainees are not wasting even a single part of the kill, and incorporating as much as they possibly can into the meal. Once eaten and approved of, this ceremonial banquet concludes their training.<br />
======Reputation:======<br />
The Ka'uliik are regarded in many lights. Some clans think of them as heretics, shirking other Gods in favor of the myths of their two-deity pantheon. A few clans might outright refuse to hunt alongside them. Others might fixate on their ‘primitive’ ways, boasting the way their own clan doesn’t need to hunt for something as basic as food. They’re viewed in many circles as the most ‘classical’ of Yautja hunters, though some might admire their dedication. Many clans know the Ka’uliik simply for the meals they make, their culinary skill at arranging human flesh in just the right combination of flavors becoming widespread.<br />

WORK-IN-PROGRESS<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
====Early History:====<br />
<br />
For an eon the clans roamed the lush continents of their homeworld as nomads, trailing the herds of their various prey. Encounters between tribes were rare, and often aggressive or violent. The clans rarely stayed long in any fixed location, as the seasons turned so did their prey migrate around the globe.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
Their infrequent meetings, and it’s accompanying aggression, severely inhibited their technological advancement. Even after a hundred thousand years following this lifestyle the Yautja ancestry continued in this fashion, following the food across continents. Speech was well developed, but extremely narrow. Each clan had their own dialect and few could communicate with other tribes.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
The ages passed and the clans continued in their primitive state, chasing the twin suns as they hunted. Many millennia onwards and their way of life was thrust into a race for survival. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
A large asteroid of unknown origin smashed into their world and tore it’s continents from their bedrock. The entire planet rapidly heated and became a baked desert world, it’s environment now hostile to most forms of large life, many perished in a short period of time, whole clans were wiped out and the majority of the fauna the Yautja depended on to feed were decimated. Faced with cooperation or death, the survivors gradually grouped together to honor the fallen and to endure the disaster.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the landscape permanently disfigured, barren and strewn with the remains of countless lives the Yautja were forced to advance rapidly or face extinction. The remaining clans came together and pooled all their knowledge, resources and skills and elected a body of the wisest Yautja in hope of guidance to a return to their former strength. This guiding entity would later become the Council of Ancients.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Reformation:====<br />
<br />
For centuries after the disaster that befell their world the clans struggled to survive, but the Council of Ancients was the light in the darkness that had enveloped the landscape.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Strict disciplinary action on what, where and when the clans could hunt was the first edict set in stone. For if what little of the food supply that remained were to be hunted into extinction, then the entirety of the race would face annihilation. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Prior to the disaster, the clans had a loose system of religious beliefs that varied mightily. Some clans held animilistic beliefs, others held the belief that the two orbs in the sky were gods, some had no beliefs at all. The Council of Ancients, seeking to centralize the clans, saw the benefit in an organized religious system, one to which could help to drive the clans forward and out of the wastes of their battered homeworld. They were quick to seek out the wisest of the surviving Seers and Shamans and quicker still to set them to work on centralizing the myriad of religious systems into one. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Nytara and N’ithya, old names for the two stars in the sky, were adopted as the father and mother pairing who travelled the universe looking to create their offspring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon reaching what would become the homeworld of the clans, Nytara and N’ithya found Ger’Cetanun, a great titan made up of rock that rested upon the planet. Tired and battered from their journey, the two gods wished to rest but Ger’Cetanun would not allow it and demanded the interlopers move along. Facing exhaustion if they continued on without pause, Nytara and N’ithya fought the titan until they defeated it, crushing its inflexible, jagged body into rubble. In the brief span before his demise Ger’Cetanun swore he would return and seek vengeance. His proclamation made, Ger’Cetanun shattered into millions of pieces with his remains settling to become the planetary ring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Having dispersed Ger’Cetanun across the skies Nytara and N’ithya dwelled heavily on his warnings of vengeance. Knowing deep within themselves he would one day return to take his revenge, the gods decided to create the perfect warriors born of their blood. Beings that could one day stand against Ger’Cetanun and vanquish him for eternity. Drawing upon the spilt blood of Nytara pooled in the skies, N’ithya sent it falling to the planetary surface, swirling around as they fell the pools of blood split and scattered into a thousand droplets which rained down on the world. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon striking the surface each droplet crystalised in the ground leaving intricate patterns in their wake, owing to the creationary nature of Nytara’s blood and the blessings of N’ithya, these patterns would later begin to replicate in the surrounding environment and later still would become the sigils of each clan. Everywhere the blood struck life blossomed, jungles sprouted and plains grew, over the course of 3 years Nytara and N’ithya nurtured the world into a landscape of immense dangers and strength. The gods poured their energies into the planet and vastly accelerated the development of it’s flora and fauna until they deemed it ready for their offspring.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Cetanu Crisis:====<br />
<br />
In the depths of empty space a dark seed began to stir. Left by Ger’Ceteanun long ago this seed would grow to become his vengeance, his legacy of destruction and suffering. Cetanu, the black death.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Like his father before him Cetanu was a Titan. Owing to the deep connection Ger’Cetanun had with Cetanu while he was developing lightyears away, Cetanu imbibed many of the strengths and traits N’ithya and Nytara presented in their battle with his father. This adaptation would give Cetanu an edge Ger’Cetanun was greatly missing and make his resurgence all the more devastating. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
From the dark shadows of the stellar void Cetanu observed the planet his father had resided upon and saw that the two gods had created a formidable race of warriors in their image. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Over the ages, Cetanu prepared himself for battle with the interloper race to which had laid claim to the homeworld of his father. Once the time was right, Cetanu fulfilled his destiny and unleashed himself onto the homeworld of the trespassers, destroying the majority of the planet and the warrior race to which staked their claim. Cetanu could not fully fulfill his destiny though. The warrior race turned out to be much stronger than he had anticipated. They crawled up from the fires of extinction and vowed to eliminate Cetanu. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the clans re-established themselves, and their religion became more organized, Cetanu was eventually adopted into the pantheon as the embodiment of death, and the ultimate warrior to which the hunters would strive to defeat in battle. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the ages passed the hunters and their faith developed, the pantheon grew larger. Gods and goddesses symbolizing various real world aspects were added to the Pantheon.<br />
<br />
<br />
====The separation of the castes:====<br />
<br />
To further centralize their burgeoning civilization, the Council of Ancients decreed that a focus needed to be placed on the rapid development of technology and industry. The families to which had their skills centered around the trades, arts, and sciences were conscripted and let loose to conduct their work, under the leadership of the warrior caste - who had always led the clans. Due to their vital work, the council of ancients made it law that the offspring of all members of the trade caste would be educated in the ways of their elders, to ensure that there would be a continuity of knowledge and that no momentum would be lost. <br />
<br />
<br />
====Advancement:====<br />
<br />
The process of moving forward wasn’t without it’s cost. The planet did not properly begin to cool and stabilize for many millennia, making the simplest tasks difficult and treacherous at the best of times. Brute strength, perseverance, and a refusal to see their honor tarnished through failure, allowed the clans to keep moving forward.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
During the Ikthala Reformation, the hunters saw their creation by the twin gods as an act of creating the perfect race. This dogma began to propagate throughout their society, it’s roots being in their survival after the arrival of Cetanu. It was believed that the gods had blessed them with their perfect forms, and surviving Cetanu had reinforced this belief of divine heritage.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Elements of proclamations made just after Centanu’s arrival remained. The hunters were kept in check via strict discipline within their clans, a remnant of when order was key for survival. Unruly, treacherous, and unhinged members were remanded and punished harshly, sometimes via exile but often through capital punishment. At times there were such egregious acts committed that the stain of imperfection from the act sunk deep into the guilty hunters clan. In cases like these the clan was exterminated to prevent the act from recurring and from the dishonor spreading. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Within the stabilization period there was a quick advancement in technology. The clans saw remarkable scientific breakthroughs over the next 10 millenia. Dirt and rubble evolved into brick and mortar, bronze and tin into iron and then steel, and so on. From industrial, to atomic, to digital, the hunters were an intelligent species that, once given proper direction, could perform remarkable feats. As they progressed, the clans began to view their technological prowess as an extension to their divine strength. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As their technological level progressed, so did their society. The strict decrees set forth by the Council of Ancients evolved into an overarching set of laws that began to govern all facets of society. The issue of union, the value of work and trade, how hunts were properly performed all fell under this new code of honor. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Soon enough the hunters had reached the age of space flight. They were able to explore the other planets in their system and see for themselves the entirety of their cradle. As the hunters began to explore the other worlds in their system they discovered the next planet out from theirs was rife with life. The hunters were not alone in the universe.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the fauna on their planet still limited, the clans began visiting their neighboring world and hunting the local alien species, both for sustenance and as a source for honing their skills. As the millenia passed the clans were able to explore further and further, eventually reaching the point where they were able to touch other stars. Upon setting foot on planets underneath other stars, the hunters began to see the universe as being theirs by divine right, bestowed onto them by their creators. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Although long ago, the damage to their homeworld was near irreparable. This drove the clans to begin seeking out territory elsewhere. While countless clans continued to reside on the homeworld, many created large vessels and set forth into the stars, returning to their nomadic roots and roaming the stars, calling no place but their vessel home. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the hunters touched other star systems, they came into contact with other sentient life. Most of the species they encountered were in much lower technological states than them, and were incapable of warding off the hunters however, most had individuals or groups that were able to provide ample sport or fodder to the burgeoning clans. Worthy specimens were seized from their homeworlds and planted onto reserves so as not to disrupt the natural ecosystems and destroy the future of the stock, for the hunters had learned how valuable ecological and biological balance is.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
After asserting their strength across the near galaxy the Hunter Clans settled into a lethargic routine. Periodically hunting the many worlds within their expansive domain, they did nothing in a hurry as their lives grew long and their hunts became leisure and pride over necessity. This state is how they have existed for over a thousand years, and how they will continue for a thousand more.<br />
<br />
== Biology ==<br />
The hunters are an endothermic bipedal reptilian species. They have limited sexual dimorphism and both genders mature at similar rates and to similar builds. The species grows to be between 6 and 8 feet, and an average mature individual rounds out at around 500lbs. <br />
<br />
<br />
The species can live upwards of 2,000 years, though there are accounts of members of the species living 2,500 or more. Members of the species live very arduous and brutal lives, and incur great amounts of physical damage through their lifetimes. This fact sees many individuals dying ‘early’ with the average life expectancy of the species therefore around 800-1,000 years.<br />
<br />
<br />
Females are the birthing gender in the species. Hunters have a very long gestation period, lasting around 3 years. Infants ‘pups’ are born live, though encased in a hard embryonic sac. The struggle to breakfree from the sac is a difficult process, but it assists pups in quickly developing their muscles. Not all pups are able to break free from their sacs, and it is common within the darwinian culture of the hunters to allow for those pups to die - as these are seen as imperfect offspring and were not meant for life. Pups who are successfully reared reach puberty at around 100 years, with maturity occuring at the 200 year mark <br />
<br />
<br />
The hunters are a carnivorous species, their diet consisting of protein and lipid rich meats. They are incapable of processing carbohydrates, their livers being unable to break them down. This evolutionary dependence on meat has resulted in the species not having established any crop growing agriculture systems. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have very large hearts, and a strong cardiovascular system that has allowed for their large growth. Subsequently, this has resulted in the hunters generating great amounts of body heat. This heat is regulated via a set of tentacles, akin to dreadlocks, that extend from the back and side of their skulls. These dreadlocks shed waste heat from the body and continue to grow until death. The removal of one's dreadlocks is a death sentence, as soon after their bodies will cook their own organs until death. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have 4 mandibles that protrude from the front of their face that surround the entrance to their mouth. These mandibles are tightly pressed to the entrance to their mouth, making the process of opening their mouth somewhat difficult. This has resulted in the species developing a language centered around the use of clicks and rattles to which they form with the use of their mandibles. There are a number of sensory organs lining each mandible which are able to pick up small changes in air pressure and detect aromas in the air.<br />
<br />
<br />
The species sight is in the infrared spectrum, allowing them all weather, all day vision. Their eyes are protected by several membrane layers that protect against the environment and soft debris. <br />
<br />
<br />
Phenomenal strength is a hallmark of the species with the average mature individual able to jump three times their height, and easily capable of ripping flesh from bone and in some cases directly parting bones from bodies regardless of the flesh attached. Due to minimal sexual dimorphism in the species, males and females gain the same amount of muscle mass and grow to near identical sizes. <br />
<br />
<br />
Their bodies are incredibly resilient, being able to endure significant damage before critical failures begin to occur. The majority of their skeletal structure is made up of a weaved network of bone and cartilage that helps to protect and cushion against blunt force trauma.<br />
<br />
<br />
Thick quills grow over time on the face, back and chest of the species. These quills act as a defence mechanism, but also as a sign of maturity and one's position within society. Quills begin growing shortly after a pup breaks free of it’s sac, and they appear black and are pliable, but turn grey and brittle in old age. As a Hunter grows it will lose many quills throughout its lifetime, and while they do grow back with time, each new set is less durable than the one that came before it.<br />

=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*For as long as Hunters have traveled the stars, there has always been a lingering concern: what happens when equipment falls into the wrong hands? One solution was the self-destruct mechanism within every Blooded’s wrist-bracer. However, there was still a further problem should a Hunter be incapacitated or killed before the Self-destruct mechanism is triggered. In most situations, the fallen’s clan would be responsible for retrieval/destruction of the lost gear or bodies. However, in the event of a tomb being desecrated or a similar situation that requires discretion, a specialist is an option. Clan Luar’Ke is an otherwise average clan on the surface, to discourage interlopers or those who would interfere in their duties. Most Blooded members of Clan Luar’Ke are trained heavily in infiltration and achieving their objectives with minimal footprint through Ikthya-de Chiva, the Umbra Trials.<br />
*In the event their services are required, a seeker is notified by a Clan Luar’ke intermediary and through the proper channels is provided the circumstances and details surrounding the missing gear/body: last known location of the items in question, possible events surrounding the lost items, and potential obstacles that would be in the seeker’s path. The seeker is not informed to which clan has made contact, or which clan the missing gear belongs to. The only relevant information is anything that assists the seeker in accomplishing their objective. The seeker is then sent in either solo or in a very small team to resolve the situation. The seeker or seeker team typically has compartmentalized objectives to accomplish:<br />
# Locate and retrieve/destroy all lost pieces of equipment as well as Hunter corpses if applicable.<br />
# If any research or data has been accomplished involving Hunter biology or equipment, destroy or render said data/research useless.<br />
# Leave no/minimal evidence of Hunter involvement.<br />
# Keep damage to structures and environments to a minimum unless necessary for success of objectives 1 through 3.<br />
*Upon success of gear and body retrieval or destruction, the seeker or seeker team notifies the intermediary who then arranges a delivery of the missing equipment, or informs the clan of the resolution. The seekers of Clan Luar’Ke are never to know which clan they assisted, nor will the clan involved ever know who assisted them. There is no room for glory or validation in such a crucial task, Clan Luar’Ke will do it because it must be done.<br />

====Clan Bo'ytill, the Heathens.====<br />

*<span style="background:green">Novacti - Stry-kther Bo'ytill</span><br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
*The clan of the Bo’ytill’s was made up by different sects, each following their own style of life. These different styles of life made the clan interesting, however, it was still a clan and the ruling elders and the clan leader ensured that tradition was followed. Tradition like the blooding ceremony, and the fact that the Bo’ytill clan was a clan of heathens. Oftentimes, those persecuted for their beliefs, or lack thereof would come to the Bo’ytill’s to take on their way of life.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
*The Bo’ytill clan was hidden in an eastern quadrant of Yautja prime, far secluded from the others, as they habilitated their own way of life in a more isolated section of the planet. They used this to their advantage, the isolation enabling the ability to practice their heathen culture without being associated as outcasts in the standard Yautja culture. They also used the isolation as a benefit enabling them to hunt, without worry of outer distractions. But as we all know, nothing can last forever, and hunts to far away planets would occur.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
*The process to attain the status of blooded in the Bo’ytill clan was gruesome. It was like other clan’s blooding rites, but if you failed three times, you were dragged to a stone pillar, clamped, and the younglings who were worthy of their own lives killed you. The spot over the years had been stained with the greenish blood of the Yautja deemed unworthy to live. If you managed to survive the blooding process, and attained the status of blooded, you were given the respect you deserved. Kar-ata had succeeded in his blooding on the first attempt, as most did. It was not an easy task, but the elders didn’t want to kill off their youth, and so they ensured that they were trained and taught well.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
*The isolation enjoyed by the Bo’ytill’s enabled them to hunt without worry about interference of other clans or outer impacts, yet over time, prey dwindled. The fact that they lived in a world that had been ravaged by Cetanu made things a tad difficult. With this in mind, the elders permitted hunts outside of Yautja prime, far away on planets such as LV-624 and Shiva’s Snowball. With new hunting grounds open to them, the Bo’ytill’s hunts grew gruesome. Their savagery was intense, and they fought like beasts. Honourable beasts! They claimed many trophies for their glory, and their feasts were always hearty. Maybe even as much as a hunter’s heart.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
*Respect and tradition. A large factor of the Bo’ytill clan was the respect. Your status earned you respect. Should you fail to respect them, the clan name, or the honor code, you were severely punished. Whippings were common for miscreants, and the loss of a mandible, or finger was not too rare either. In some cases, as a capital punishment, one would be chained to a coloumn and their dreadlocks removed. You followed the code and you listened to your elders, or you wouldn’t like the consequence, especially if important rules are breached. The working castes earned their pride through their crafts, yet the truly honorable were the hunters, those who could prove their worth and deserving of respect on the hunting grounds.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
As stated in the overview of the Bo’ytill clan, there were different sects, or branches of the clan. Listed below are some of these sects. They each have their own hierarchy, but it has no authority over those outside of its own, and the leaders inside are still subject to the rule of the clan elders.<br />
*One of these was the Thwei, a word which means “Blood” in the language of the Hunters. They were a group that was renowned for their bloodlust. It was they that had first come to the elders, seeking permission to extend their hunts deeper. With the request approved, Thwei was hunting on planets all around the galaxy.<br />
*Another of the sects was The Forgers of N'ithya D’lex. N’ithya being rock, or Earth, and D’lex being a strong crystalline material used for building. Both warriors and forgers belonged to this sect, the forgers themselves were often the primary workers, but warriors and blooded interested in crafting their own weapon often came to learn and make a blade suited for their own style of fighting. This sect was somewhat secluded inside the original stance of the Bo’ytill culture, for the reason that they respected the Goddess Dlex, in secret. Not worshipped, no, respected, acknowledged, but never worshipped.<br />
*The Bhu’ja Dekna. Those of the Bhu’ja Dekna tracked their prey and prepared. They always planned ahead. Moved for weeks on end, moving from target to target, trying to find one who was truly worthy of a fight. They carefully picked their target, stalked, and struck. Careful was their name, precision was their game. Their hunting skills were on par with the Thwei, but their style varied greatly. They were robust at all manners of tracking, and knew when the time was right to strike. But never did they dare breach the honor code, hunting a weakened target, or such, for they knew the dishonor would net them a heavy punishment by the elders.<br />
*The Mo'ta'yar. The name alone being mentioned is enough to put an entire room to silence. It stood for ‘Keepers of the Code’, as the sect’s sole purpose was ensuring the Honor Code is followed, severely punishing those who broke it. Such sects existed in practically every clan to this day, it was found by no other than the Bo’ytill’s founder, Mateon-O. The sect had one of the most important duties of them all, to protect the honor of the clan by severely punishing those who break it, from severe beatings to executions, the Enforcers never failed in their task. Such an important wing of the clan was entrusted to no one else but the Clan Leader’s mate, Ma’tak-O. Se held the rank of High Enforcer, one of the many duties an Elder may be chosen for. Ma’tak-O expected nothing less from her mate, he began recruiting from the Elites of the clan for the sect, for there was no enforcing of the Honor Code without the Enforcers. <br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
<br />
Matean-O, an elder of Na’Kuel, one very worshipping and praising of gods, seeking that everything he did pleased their gods. However, after multiple encounters, and failures to please these gods Matean-O, enraged, stricken and determined that the gods were false and his whole life was a lie, fled. He took his mate with him, and rallied any others that should follow, this of course enraged the elders, in which they ordered Matean-O to leave, driving him far to the Eastern Quadrant of Yautja Prime, the Bo’ytill’s new resting place for the years to come. Word was quick, as the clan was small. They adapted the name Bo’ytill’s, Bo’ytill standing for True-Seer, or Perfect sight, adopting this name, as Matean-O fully convinced the Bo’ytills that their decision and sight was correct, the gods were false, and they would make, and alter their destiny, not some false idols...<br />
<br />
Lokath’Dag looked to Matean-O and calmly said “Matean, you have come before us on, as you say, a matter of extreme urgency, tell us. What is the problem?”<br />
The elders looked expectantly at Matean-O, who began by saying, <br />
“Years. For so many years I worshipped the gods above all else. But do you know what came of that?”<br />
At this, the elders looked towards one another, then turned back to Matean-O. <br />
“Nothing! Those… those gods are nothing but children’s tales! Meant to keep us in line. They are nothing! I devoted everything to them, but I got nothing in return, not even acknowledgement!”<br />
“Where are you going with this, Matean-O?”<br />
“It’s over. These so-called ‘gods’ are not in any way real. Can’t you see that?”<br />
Lokath'Dag nodded to himself, then looked back and forth to the others. They nodded in unison. <br />
“Go.”<br />
“What?” Matean-O took a step back, startled. “You won’t even hear me out?”<br />
Lokath'Dag slowly stood up and walked over to Matean-O. <br />
“No Matean. You have disrespected our ways! You have brought shame on yourself, coming to us like this! You, of all people. I cannot believe what I am seeing.” Lokath took a step back and calmed himself down before saying.“Matean. I do not know what has gotten into you. Go home and think. Think about what you’re saying. Rest my friend.”<br />
<br />
That night Matean made up his mind. He went to his mate, and had them get ready to leave. After getting everything ready, Matean went to face the elders. For what he hoped would be the last time.<br />
“Matean, at this time of hour? Have you come to your senses?”<br />
“It is you who must come to your senses Lokath. You still don’t get it, do you? I must say I pity you.”<br />
“It is I who pity you Matean. You know that you are no longer welcome here. You must go. Far. Far east. And never return here. You are no longer welcome.” Lokath, sighed, before turning back and leaving the room.<br />
“I will miss you old friend.” Matean said, but alas, only the empty chamber heard it…<br />
<br />
Matean took his mate, and those who he had managed to convince, and fled, heading due east. To start a new life for himself. But not only for himself. He was going to start his own clan, one where you weren’t punished just because you didn’t worship idols. He named his clan “Bo’ytill” which means True-Seer, or Perfect Sight. For he had seen the truth. And he wanted to share it. He wanted to share it with everyone he could.<br />

<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
The Nhon Clan is often regarded as one of the few remaining purely confident clans, often boasting so many young they had to inhabit a whole planet, one where they are often found hosting prolific gladiator matches in the cities testing the young in Blooding Rituals. Nhon members are often known for being the most unashamed hunter, often just walking around without using their cloaking device to test the prey nearby, anyone who had the guts to challenge them would often find them on the floor with their helmets missing afterwards as a trophy, a Nhon trademark. The clan is much more than that, boasting many academic schools of teaching, some featuring; anatomy, psychology, philosophy, and of course the art of war and the act of hunting. While also having many sources of literature which is often looked down upon, however many elites and elders might want to chronicle their life for the young ones to find inspiration and drive to become the best yautja ever. The clan is much more of a society that was looked down upon for their vast knowledge in anything they could come to possess.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
The Nhon clan have expanded so much over the years they can come to inhabit a planet known as Jiralhos, this planet large enough to be habitable for many species for the Nhon clan to hunt and still live peacefully in their multiple cities spanning acrossing the globe. The cities have vast variety in each depending on the sect of Nhon you find yourself in, from marketplace, schools, temples, and coliseums the cities have a lot to offer for the Nhon members. Multiple sects are known for having their very own species preservation which consists of a vast ecosystem filled with multiple strong creatures to hunt and observe for the Nhon.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
The Nhon clan blooding ritual is a much tougher ordeal than is standard, due to high expectations the leaders have for every hunter, and the principles the clan tends to follow. In order to even attempt the ritual, an Unblooded must meet the following criteria:<br />
<br />
- A tie or greater in a spar versus a Blooded hunter.<br />
- A passing score on a mental aptitude test.<br />
- Has made active contributions to areas of learning or debate.<br />
- A vouch from a Blooded hunter (not the one they sparred with, however).<br />
<br />
Once an Unblooded has qualified for the Blooding Ritual, they are taken to a gladiatorial arena located on the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos. This is where they must pass two trials:<br />
<br />
The Trial of Prowess - Two human gladiators are released into the arena, the Unblooded’s objective is to defeat the two gladiators without killing them, if the gladiators land four hits (two each) on the Unblooded, the trial is failed. If the gladiators are killed, the trial is failed. The objective of this trial is to prove that the Unblooded has the precision, prowess, and restraint enough to accomplish victory without killing anything in an outnumbered battle.<br />
<br />
The Trial of Solidarity - Once the gladiators are defeated, a Tier Three R’ka (usually a Praetorian or a Ravager) is released into the arena. The Unblooded’s goal is to kill it, however after sixty seconds, Tier One R’ka will begin being released into the arena. The Unblooded MUST NOT kill any Tier One R’ka, their only goal is to kill the Tier Three and escape the arena with the body intact. This will become their first trophy and allow them to become a Blooded member of <br />
the Nhon clan.<br />
<br />
Failed Rituals<br />
<br />
In the Nhon clan, Unbloodeds who have failed the Blooding Ritual will be forced to work as a pseudo-slave for one of the busier Blooded members for five years. While it is a distinctly unpleasant experience, there have very rarely been hunters who failed again after enduring these gruelling years.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
The hunt is considered to be the Nhon Clans favorite activity.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
Leader Rhuu’Nhon’s Helmet Stash<br />
<br />
Amongst some of the Nhon hunters, there have been many rumblings about Rhuu’Nhon’s trophy collection. Many have seen Rhuu take helmets for trophies, but her trophy room contains none of them. In addition to this, there is an unmarked attached room by Rhuu’Nhon’s private quarters, that she does not let any hunters enter. This has all but confirmed, in the eyes of her clan members, that she keeps an entire private room exclusively for helmets she has collected, which they consider quite amusing.<br />
<br />
Nhon Artists<br />
<br />
Many of the creative Blooded clan members within the clan have taken up “art”, after one of the hunters brought back a human artbook, and the competitive blood within them sparked a desire to prove they are better “artists” than any human. The art faction is constantly growing, now having their own dedicated rooms and even beginning to map out their own hub.<br />
<br />
Statue of the Founder<br />
<br />
In the central hub of the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos , there is a statue that was built hollow, and the body of the founding member was placed inside. None of the hunters have found any records as to why this was done, but they do not deny that it makes them feel closer to the Founder. Some hunters believe that every few years his spirit returns to gaze upon the clan he built once more.<br />
<br />
Hot Blood<br />
<br />
Due to the constant self-improvement philosophy of the clan, many of the hunters within it possess extremely competitive personalities. The desire to prove they truly are the best is so prevalent that entire days have been spent bickering over things as minor as handwriting and effigy crafting.<br />
<br />
Other Clans<br />
<br />
The official status that the Nhons have towards other clans is, generally, “We’re smarter than you, and better hunters too!” However, when another clan demonstrates knowledge or prowess that is largely unknown to the Nhons, they will usually send emissaries or powerful hunters to try and gain the knowledge they’re missing out on. Truly incorrigible.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
(N/A)<br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
K’zar-Nhon<br />
<br />
K’zar-Nhon was the first and founding member of the Nhon clan, exiled from his birth clan for not being enough of a “hunter” in the clan’s eyes, he turned to creating his own clan of hunters to spread his way of hunting and living to others, in the hopes to one day create the perfect Yautja - both a scholar and a hunter.<br />

<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*An obscure but old Yautja Clan, the De’Rojok Clan, also known as the ‘Coroners’ or ‘Record Keepers’ is mostly dedicated to S’ahul and The Literary Art. Unlike other clans, the Coroners are often seen collecting pieces of literature from other alien races, such as humans. These are more or less discarded shortly after a full read but on some rare occasions may find their place in the clan’s Library as pieces of entertainment or an analogical look at humanity’s psychological or anatomical make-up. <br />
<br />
*The De’Rojok Clan’s warriors are known to use thrown weapons and often carry a combi-stick.<br />
<br />
*While all Yautja Hunters take trophies, a member of the Record Keepers also carries along a journal and an incredibly sharp but durable pen. Using the back of the pen, the Yautja draws some of its own blood and uses it to write down his kill, it’s habits, any defining features, the time to kill and finally, the killing blow. This serves to remind the hunter that every kill takes blood and sweat, and to ensure the Yautja betters himself with every kill. Writing in the book is not an immediate action following a kill, but it is recommended to note the details down as soon as possible<br />
<br />
*Writing a whole book is generally seen as a sign of great prestige and dedication, the book being quickly deposited in the clan’s library along with many others, in order to become lectures of youngbloods.<br />

====Clan Mei'ka, the Maidens.====<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''Unknownity - Shi'rei Mei'ka'''<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
* The Mei'ka clan is a clan once filled with tragedy and now reformed as the ashes of the remaining members rose up to take back what is theirs. It was once an average clan and now it is a clan dedicated to Dtekale and their faith is all around her. The clan is made out of females only who have found a different desire and purpose where they would be shunned or even killed by other clans if known about it. Their desire is all about the Hunt to succeed and show Dtekale their might and skills and strengthen their spirit.<br />
======Location:======<br />
* The clan’s home is located in the southern quadrant of ████ Prime where religion isn’t as completely centralized thus other clans who live nearby do not mind how the Mei’ka clan portrays the Goddess Dtekale differently. Wherever the Mei'ka clan is, there will always be a temple nearby dedicated to Dtekale. The clan is currently expanding its hunting outposts and temples beyond the home planet.<br />
======Religion:======<br />
* The Mei’ka clan is highly religious only towards a specific deity which is the Goddess of women and birth, Dtekale. The Goddess is portrayed differently by the clan, having a larger emphasis on women. The widows questioned why there is a god for women but not for men. They believe only certain females could become hunters. They believe the raw strength and strive for the hunt which isn’t common for females was a sign that they had Dtekale’s spirit within them. Their conclusion about why most females didn’t have the Goddess’ spirit was due to them becoming child makers and mates as it made them weak and lose their strive to hunt and rather stay at home. Not having the spirit of the Goddess was a sign of weakness for them and they would do anything to keep the spirit inside them or else they would lose their respect for their fellow sisters and be kicked out of the clan or be transferred to the working caste or turned into a serf.<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
* The Blooding rite for the Mei’ka clan is very demanding and difficult for most female Yautja as it revolves around the strive and desire to hunt which most females do not have. For one to complete their Blooding rite, they have proven themselves to bear the spirit of Dtekale. If they were to fail the rite, the un-blooded would receive harsh punishments in return, they were then taken to the clan’s Shaman for them to attempt to wake their spirit of Dtekale. If they failed the rite a second time, then they had no place in the clan’s finest and were given labor roles and remain unblooded for their life, that is if they lived.<br />
* The Mei’ka blooding rite has 3 main principles:<br />
# The rite must be considered already challenging to male hunters<br />
# The main objective is to secure a trophy of the prey you were given to hunt<br />
# You are required to be stripped of everything but a single spear and loincloths to achieve the same experience as Dtekale had during her age of being inside a mortal body<br />
======Reputation:======<br />
* The Mei’ka clan has an interesting reputation among other clans who know them, especially those who knew the Mei’ka clan before its revision. Due to the infamous disappearance of all the males in the clan, other clans believe they had to be involved with the disappearance as how could all the males disappear without a trace? Due to that, those who knew about the old Mei’ka clan, do not trust the current one and avoid them with their best effort. Because of the Mei’ka clan rejecting the traditional purpose of a female Yautja, they are generally disliked by traditionalists. Mei’ka views females of other clans as weak unless they are a part of the warrior caste and have no mate. Due to their stance about having a mate and becoming a child-maker, other clans have started calling them the Maidens.<br />
======History:======<br />
* Founded by Bokahn Mei’ka, the clan was originally just like any other clan as they had the same practices and standards. The clan had a special event that occurred once every four years and lasted two months where all the males in the clan went away to partake in a large hunting party and returned with a large feast to share with the females. Even the males in the working caste joined the event to help the warriors in particular activities where they couldn’t do it on their own. However one fateful event, they never returned. Their ship went missing and it couldn’t be tracked, the same goes for the gear the males had. They all disappeared without a trace and many conspiracies were formed by other clans who knew the Mei’ka clan. Some conspiracies talked about how the females sabotaged the ship and the gear to disable their tracking systems and sent the ship far into the unknown where it could never be found, some conspiracies simply say that the ship was sucked into a black hole or was completely disintegrated by unknown means. What was known is that they are all gone and will never come back. The remaining females in the clan were now called the widows by other clans and subsequently, the clan itself was called the widow clan. Instead of dissolving the clan, they decided to change it completely to the point of it being entirely different. They believed to be lucky to survive the extinction of their old clan, they believed Dtekale protected them and thus centered the clan around her and about women. The incident is now a reminder and curse to them, to never allow males into the clan or else they would suffer the same fate, not because they hated males or thought they were superior to them. The new founder Kay’ta Mei’ka returned the clan from its ashes and became a sanctuary for females who rejected their purpose to bear pups and have mates and rather focused on The Hunt. Currently, nobody still knows what happened to the males and the truth will never come to light.<br />

====Clan Ka'uliik, the Gluttonous.====<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''Snakebitten - Ikthya-de Ka'uliik'''<br />
*aguia vermelha - Shaq'Klahoo<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
A ship-based clan of gluttons and seasoned killers, the Ka'uliik are sustenance hunters. A burgeoning clan with a population still rising to this day, the Ka’uliik are more focused on sustaining their clan than glory alone. Strong in their reverence to Tharda and Paya alike, these carnivores have become passionate gourmands with a bottomless stomach.<br />
======History:======<br />
The Ka’uliik’s origins start from a single Yautja: Zu-G’ki’ke. One of noble birth born thousands of years ago, he was destined for greatness. By all accounts, he was an absolute powerhouse of a Yautja. An incredible stature, dreadlocks down to his hips, and strength enough to lift lesser Yautja with a single hand; let alone puncture clan armor with only his thumb claws. His success as a Hunter led to his success as a mate, fathering thousands of children. He led his harem, his progeny, and those that would follow him to his ideal of a promised land; a lush world teeming with thrillingly dangerous life. They hngs haad become a new clan; the Ka’uliik, with Zu-G’ki’ke as their ancestral Clan Leader. However, thid taken a turn for the worse. Even after their leader’s passing at four thousand years old, his newfound Clan was rapidly exploding in population, and this overgrowth meant a demand for food. Within thousands of years, the Ka’uliik’s skilled Hunters had picked clean nearly all edible prey on their homeworld, and there was scarce left to eat. Zu-G’ki’ke’s grandchild, Clan Leader at the time, diverted their resources and metalworking to the creation of a single ship to perform their exodus. Though they were at quite an old age when the vessel was completed, the deed was done. This had become the ship Agaj’ya, and forever would the Ka’uliik travel nomadically from place to place, Hunters by obligation.<br />
======Clan Structure======<br />
The Ka’uliik have their residence in a particularly massive ship. Shaking the trend of other clans to live in a variety of vessels, their homeship Agaj’ya is very densely populated, one of the largest and most well-inhabited vessels known to Yautjakind, and still being expanded to this day. Living conditions are rather difficult due to the sheer amount of mouths to feed, and living space is often cramped. They are known to be less wealthy than others, resources being shared among a collective whole. They are tightly-knit community, residents all doing their part to help the clan succeed. This has given their clan an egalitarian mindset out of necessity; age and sex are much less of a barrier than other clans, barring diseases and deformities, anyone can and should hunt. All occupations are of equal value and importance, and anyone from ferocious Hunters to the workers that forge their weapons are focused on ensuring their siblings thrive despite scarcity<br />
======Religion:======<br />
The Ka’uliik observe their deadly duo, Tharda and Paya, with great reverence. Their lifestyle focuses around appeasing their Gods, ritually imbibing near-every part of their prey on their behalf. Nothing is wasted and every part is used, in accordance with their belief that their Gods have given their clan the ability to absorb the strength from their prey upon consuming them, and sharing their quarry amongst the Clan strengthens it as a whole. <br />
After killing their prey, it is field dressed. During the process, a Hunter will call upon Paya and Tharde to observe their work, and to dedicate the prey’s body parts to them. Every possible cut of meat, skins, furs, and scales are all taken. Blood is drunk or otherwise used for rituals, and bones are ground down to bone meal. Sinews, fat and organs all have their use as well.<br />
A small portion of the prey may be consumed by the Hunter themselves, to strengthen them for what is to come, and to ensure they do not go hungry while there’s work to be done. However, the bulk of the quarry’s ‘byproducts’ are returned to their ship and packed away. The theft of food or even a stolen jawbone is the fastest way to draw the Ka’uliik’s ire.<br />
======Behavior======<br />
While all members of the clan naturally have their own way of going about hunting game, there is often some division between older or younger members. '''This ain’t mandatory, just flavor, do what you like.'''<br />
<br />
Older members of the clan, typically at the least Elites, are more cool-headed and go about their killing in a ‘sportier’ manner. They are likely to make a game of tracking down their quarry, and might even announce to their chosen mark that they are coming. Whips are commonly seen in their hands, used to torture prey and ensure that more of the corpse can be used. They are typically of a more refined palate given the wide range of food they’ve eaten and cooked, and have specific sorts of prey they hunt; claiming them to be of utmost flavor. They are also known to rarely use their cloaking devices, preferring to chase down their prey and frighten them to ‘get the juices flowing.’<br />
<br />
Younger members of the clan, inexperienced as they may be, vibrate with bloodlust and reek of aggression. They hunt as animals do, typically using their wristblades to get up close and personal. Having a burning hunger, an overall higher amount of energy available to them, and a less experienced palate means that younger Blooded tend to eat with little preference towards or against certain meals. The younger members also typically go without their cloaking devices, appreciating the value of a good chase.<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
The Blooding ritual is, of course, meant to prepare up and coming hunters for the real deal. After completing their training in the operation of their (limited) weapons, bioscans are used to locate a world with dangerous prey. A ship full of twelve to forty Unblooded and a single experienced older hunter are sent out, the engine forcibly disabled for a year; stranding the would be Hunters on their new grounds. In most cases, at least one of the tireless sprats will die. In very rare cases, the ship will never return; the world being earmarked as a place of interest. However, the ritual does not see its end once the vessel returns. Each hunter is expected to bring back triple their weight in fresh kill, and furthermore expected to prepare and host a feast for their homeship. The killed prey is taken with the would-be Blooded, and butchered directly in front of the high-ranks judging them. This is to ensure the trainees are not wasting even a single part of the kill, and incorporating as much as they possibly can into the meal. Once eaten and approved of, this ceremonial banquet concludes their training.<br />
======Reputation:======<br />
The Ka'uliik are regarded in many lights. Some clans think of them as heretics, shirking other Gods in favor of the myths of their two-deity pantheon. A few clans might outright refuse to hunt alongside them. Others might fixate on their ‘primitive’ ways, boasting the way their own clan doesn’t need to hunt for something as basic as food. They’re viewed in many circles as the most ‘classical’ of Yautja hunters, though some might admire their dedication. Many clans know the Ka’uliik simply for the meals they make, their culinary skill at arranging human flesh in just the right combination of flavors becoming widespread.<br />

WORK-IN-PROGRESS<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
====Early History:====<br />
<br />
For an eon the clans roamed the lush continents of their homeworld as nomads, trailing the herds of their various prey. Encounters between tribes were rare, and often aggressive or violent. The clans rarely stayed long in any fixed location, as the seasons turned so did their prey migrate around the globe.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
Their infrequent meetings, and it’s accompanying aggression, severely inhibited their technological advancement. Even after a hundred thousand years following this lifestyle the Yautja ancestry continued in this fashion, following the food across continents. Speech was well developed, but extremely narrow. Each clan had their own dialect and few could communicate with other tribes.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
The ages passed and the clans continued in their primitive state, chasing the twin suns as they hunted. Many millennia onwards and their way of life was thrust into a race for survival. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
A large asteroid of unknown origin smashed into their world and tore it’s continents from their bedrock. The entire planet rapidly heated and became a baked desert world, it’s environment now hostile to most forms of large life, many perished in a short period of time, whole clans were wiped out and the majority of the fauna the Yautja depended on to feed were decimated. Faced with cooperation or death, the survivors gradually grouped together to honor the fallen and to endure the disaster.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the landscape permanently disfigured, barren and strewn with the remains of countless lives the Yautja were forced to advance rapidly or face extinction. The remaining clans came together and pooled all their knowledge, resources and skills and elected a body of the wisest Yautja in hope of guidance to a return to their former strength. This guiding entity would later become the Council of Ancients.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Reformation:====<br />
<br />
For centuries after the disaster that befell their world the clans struggled to survive, but the Council of Ancients was the light in the darkness that had enveloped the landscape.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Strict disciplinary action on what, where and when the clans could hunt was the first edict set in stone. For if what little of the food supply that remained were to be hunted into extinction, then the entirety of the race would face annihilation. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Prior to the disaster, the clans had a loose system of religious beliefs that varied mightily. Some clans held animilistic beliefs, others held the belief that the two orbs in the sky were gods, some had no beliefs at all. The Council of Ancients, seeking to centralize the clans, saw the benefit in an organized religious system, one to which could help to drive the clans forward and out of the wastes of their battered homeworld. They were quick to seek out the wisest of the surviving Seers and Shamans and quicker still to set them to work on centralizing the myriad of religious systems into one. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Nytara and N’ithya, old names for the two stars in the sky, were adopted as the father and mother pairing who travelled the universe looking to create their offspring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon reaching what would become the homeworld of the clans, Nytara and N’ithya found Ger’Cetanun, a great titan made up of rock that rested upon the planet. Tired and battered from their journey, the two gods wished to rest but Ger’Cetanun would not allow it and demanded the interlopers move along. Facing exhaustion if they continued on without pause, Nytara and N’ithya fought the titan until they defeated it, crushing its inflexible, jagged body into rubble. In the brief span before his demise Ger’Cetanun swore he would return and seek vengeance. His proclamation made, Ger’Cetanun shattered into millions of pieces with his remains settling to become the planetary ring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Having dispersed Ger’Cetanun across the skies Nytara and N’ithya dwelled heavily on his warnings of vengeance. Knowing deep within themselves he would one day return to take his revenge, the gods decided to create the perfect warriors born of their blood. Beings that could one day stand against Ger’Cetanun and vanquish him for eternity. Drawing upon the spilt blood of Nytara pooled in the skies, N’ithya sent it falling to the planetary surface, swirling around as they fell the pools of blood split and scattered into a thousand droplets which rained down on the world. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon striking the surface each droplet crystalised in the ground leaving intricate patterns in their wake, owing to the creationary nature of Nytara’s blood and the blessings of N’ithya, these patterns would later begin to replicate in the surrounding environment and later still would become the sigils of each clan. Everywhere the blood struck life blossomed, jungles sprouted and plains grew, over the course of 3 years Nytara and N’ithya nurtured the world into a landscape of immense dangers and strength. The gods poured their energies into the planet and vastly accelerated the development of it’s flora and fauna until they deemed it ready for their offspring.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Cetanu Crisis:====<br />
<br />
In the depths of empty space a dark seed began to stir. Left by Ger’Ceteanun long ago this seed would grow to become his vengeance, his legacy of destruction and suffering. Cetanu, the black death.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Like his father before him Cetanu was a Titan. Owing to the deep connection Ger’Cetanun had with Cetanu while he was developing lightyears away, Cetanu imbibed many of the strengths and traits N’ithya and Nytara presented in their battle with his father. This adaptation would give Cetanu an edge Ger’Cetanun was greatly missing and make his resurgence all the more devastating. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
From the dark shadows of the stellar void Cetanu observed the planet his father had resided upon and saw that the two gods had created a formidable race of warriors in their image. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Over the ages, Cetanu prepared himself for battle with the interloper race to which had laid claim to the homeworld of his father. Once the time was right, Cetanu fulfilled his destiny and unleashed himself onto the homeworld of the trespassers, destroying the majority of the planet and the warrior race to which staked their claim. Cetanu could not fully fulfill his destiny though. The warrior race turned out to be much stronger than he had anticipated. They crawled up from the fires of extinction and vowed to eliminate Cetanu. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the clans re-established themselves, and their religion became more organized, Cetanu was eventually adopted into the pantheon as the embodiment of death, and the ultimate warrior to which the hunters would strive to defeat in battle. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the ages passed the hunters and their faith developed, the pantheon grew larger. Gods and goddesses symbolizing various real world aspects were added to the Pantheon.<br />
<br />
<br />
====The separation of the castes:====<br />
<br />
To further centralize their burgeoning civilization, the Council of Ancients decreed that a focus needed to be placed on the rapid development of technology and industry. The families to which had their skills centered around the trades, arts, and sciences were conscripted and let loose to conduct their work, under the leadership of the warrior caste - who had always led the clans. Due to their vital work, the council of ancients made it law that the offspring of all members of the trade caste would be educated in the ways of their elders, to ensure that there would be a continuity of knowledge and that no momentum would be lost. <br />
<br />
<br />
====Advancement:====<br />
<br />
The process of moving forward wasn’t without it’s cost. The planet did not properly begin to cool and stabilize for many millennia, making the simplest tasks difficult and treacherous at the best of times. Brute strength, perseverance, and a refusal to see their honor tarnished through failure, allowed the clans to keep moving forward.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
During the Ikthala Reformation, the hunters saw their creation by the twin gods as an act of creating the perfect race. This dogma began to propagate throughout their society, it’s roots being in their survival after the arrival of Cetanu. It was believed that the gods had blessed them with their perfect forms, and surviving Cetanu had reinforced this belief of divine heritage.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Elements of proclamations made just after Centanu’s arrival remained. The hunters were kept in check via strict discipline within their clans, a remnant of when order was key for survival. Unruly, treacherous, and unhinged members were remanded and punished harshly, sometimes via exile but often through capital punishment. At times there were such egregious acts committed that the stain of imperfection from the act sunk deep into the guilty hunters clan. In cases like these the clan was exterminated to prevent the act from recurring and from the dishonor spreading. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Within the stabilization period there was a quick advancement in technology. The clans saw remarkable scientific breakthroughs over the next 10 millenia. Dirt and rubble evolved into brick and mortar, bronze and tin into iron and then steel, and so on. From industrial, to atomic, to digital, the hunters were an intelligent species that, once given proper direction, could perform remarkable feats. As they progressed, the clans began to view their technological prowess as an extension to their divine strength. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As their technological level progressed, so did their society. The strict decrees set forth by the Council of Ancients evolved into an overarching set of laws that began to govern all facets of society. The issue of union, the value of work and trade, how hunts were properly performed all fell under this new code of honor. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Soon enough the hunters had reached the age of space flight. They were able to explore the other planets in their system and see for themselves the entirety of their cradle. As the hunters began to explore the other worlds in their system they discovered the next planet out from theirs was rife with life. The hunters were not alone in the universe.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the fauna on their planet still limited, the clans began visiting their neighboring world and hunting the local alien species, both for sustenance and as a source for honing their skills. As the millenia passed the clans were able to explore further and further, eventually reaching the point where they were able to touch other stars. Upon setting foot on planets underneath other stars, the hunters began to see the universe as being theirs by divine right, bestowed onto them by their creators. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Although long ago, the damage to their homeworld was near irreparable. This drove the clans to begin seeking out territory elsewhere. While countless clans continued to reside on the homeworld, many created large vessels and set forth into the stars, returning to their nomadic roots and roaming the stars, calling no place but their vessel home. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the hunters touched other star systems, they came into contact with other sentient life. Most of the species they encountered were in much lower technological states than them, and were incapable of warding off the hunters however, most had individuals or groups that were able to provide ample sport or fodder to the burgeoning clans. Worthy specimens were seized from their homeworlds and planted onto reserves so as not to disrupt the natural ecosystems and destroy the future of the stock, for the hunters had learned how valuable ecological and biological balance is.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
After asserting their strength across the near galaxy the Hunter Clans settled into a lethargic routine. Periodically hunting the many worlds within their expansive domain, they did nothing in a hurry as their lives grew long and their hunts became leisure and pride over necessity. This state is how they have existed for over a thousand years, and how they will continue for a thousand more.<br />
<br />
== Biology ==<br />
The hunters are an endothermic bipedal reptilian species. They have limited sexual dimorphism and both genders mature at similar rates and to similar builds. The species grows to be between 6 and 8 feet, and an average mature individual rounds out at around 500lbs. <br />
<br />
<br />
The species can live upwards of 2,000 years, though there are accounts of members of the species living 2,500 or more. Members of the species live very arduous and brutal lives, and incur great amounts of physical damage through their lifetimes. This fact sees many individuals dying ‘early’ with the average life expectancy of the species therefore around 800-1,000 years.<br />
<br />
<br />
Females are the birthing gender in the species. Hunters have a very long gestation period, lasting around 3 years. Infants ‘pups’ are born live, though encased in a hard embryonic sac. The struggle to breakfree from the sac is a difficult process, but it assists pups in quickly developing their muscles. Not all pups are able to break free from their sacs, and it is common within the darwinian culture of the hunters to allow for those pups to die - as these are seen as imperfect offspring and were not meant for life. Pups who are successfully reared reach puberty at around 100 years, with maturity occuring at the 200 year mark <br />
<br />
<br />
The hunters are a carnivorous species, their diet consisting of protein and lipid rich meats. They are incapable of processing carbohydrates, their livers being unable to break them down. This evolutionary dependence on meat has resulted in the species not having established any crop growing agriculture systems. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have very large hearts, and a strong cardiovascular system that has allowed for their large growth. Subsequently, this has resulted in the hunters generating great amounts of body heat. This heat is regulated via a set of tentacles, akin to dreadlocks, that extend from the back and side of their skulls. These dreadlocks shed waste heat from the body and continue to grow until death. The removal of one's dreadlocks is a death sentence, as soon after their bodies will cook their own organs until death. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have 4 mandibles that protrude from the front of their face that surround the entrance to their mouth. These mandibles are tightly pressed to the entrance to their mouth, making the process of opening their mouth somewhat difficult. This has resulted in the species developing a language centered around the use of clicks and rattles to which they form with the use of their mandibles. There are a number of sensory organs lining each mandible which are able to pick up small changes in air pressure and detect aromas in the air.<br />
<br />
<br />
The species sight is in the infrared spectrum, allowing them all weather, all day vision. Their eyes are protected by several membrane layers that protect against the environment and soft debris. <br />
<br />
<br />
Phenomenal strength is a hallmark of the species with the average mature individual able to jump three times their height, and easily capable of ripping flesh from bone and in some cases directly parting bones from bodies regardless of the flesh attached. Due to minimal sexual dimorphism in the species, males and females gain the same amount of muscle mass and grow to near identical sizes. <br />
<br />
<br />
Their bodies are incredibly resilient, being able to endure significant damage before critical failures begin to occur. The majority of their skeletal structure is made up of a weaved network of bone and cartilage that helps to protect and cushion against blunt force trauma.<br />
<br />
<br />
Thick quills grow over time on the face, back and chest of the species. These quills act as a defence mechanism, but also as a sign of maturity and one's position within society. Quills begin growing shortly after a pup breaks free of it’s sac, and they appear black and are pliable, but turn grey and brittle in old age. As a Hunter grows it will lose many quills throughout its lifetime, and while they do grow back with time, each new set is less durable than the one that came before it.<br />

<tab name="Council of Ancients"><br />
*'''My word is law, my will divine.'''<br />
*Ancients make up the ruling body of Hunter society known as the Council of Ancients. Ancients are incredibly old and wise Clan Leaders who have been chosen to sit on the council by its current members. An ancients word is law and is something that is never ignored. To ignore the will of an ancient is to bring death and dishonor on you and your clan.<br />
</tab><br />
<tab name="Clan Leaders"><br />
*'''I am your future, he who will decide your fate.'''<br />
*Clan Leaders are the highest authority in Hunter society aside from the Council of Ancients. Clan leaders oversee all aspects of their clans, and have complete authority over each member of the clan. Clan Leaders have participated in countless hunts, killed many rivals, and gained a lifetime of honor and prestige. Clan Leaders hold their position until dying in combat. Clan Leaders can go on to become sitting members on the council of Ancients.<br />

<tab name="Clan Elders"><br />
*'''Through strength I endure, through endurance I age. With age I grow wise, with wisdom I rise.'''<br />
*The oldest, wisest and strongest of all Hunters within a specific clan.<br />
*Elders are highly respected and honoured Hunters who act as teachers for young bloods and the unblooded. They are older Hunters who have made a name for themselves by becoming masters of specific skills. They will often lead hunting expeditions, and have near sole authority in choosing which members of the clan participate. Elders will vy to become Clan Leaders once their current Clan leader perishes.<br />

=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*For as long as Hunters have traveled the stars, there has always been a lingering concern: what happens when equipment falls into the wrong hands? One solution was the self-destruct mechanism within every Blooded’s wrist-bracer. However, there was still a further problem should a Hunter be incapacitated or killed before the Self-destruct mechanism is triggered. In most situations, the fallen’s clan would be responsible for retrieval/destruction of the lost gear or bodies. However, in the event of a tomb being desecrated or a similar situation that requires discretion, a specialist is an option. Clan Luar’Ke is an otherwise average clan on the surface, to discourage interlopers or those who would interfere in their duties. Most Blooded members of Clan Luar’Ke are trained heavily in infiltration and achieving their objectives with minimal footprint through Ikthya-de Chiva, the Umbra Trials.<br />
*In the event their services are required, a seeker is notified by a Clan Luar’ke intermediary and through the proper channels is provided the circumstances and details surrounding the missing gear/body: last known location of the items in question, possible events surrounding the lost items, and potential obstacles that would be in the seeker’s path. The seeker is not informed to which clan has made contact, or which clan the missing gear belongs to. The only relevant information is anything that assists the seeker in accomplishing their objective. The seeker is then sent in either solo or in a very small team to resolve the situation. The seeker or seeker team typically has compartmentalized objectives to accomplish:<br />
# Locate and retrieve/destroy all lost pieces of equipment as well as Hunter corpses if applicable.<br />
# If any research or data has been accomplished involving Hunter biology or equipment, destroy or render said data/research useless.<br />
# Leave no/minimal evidence of Hunter involvement.<br />
# Keep damage to structures and environments to a minimum unless necessary for success of objectives 1 through 3.<br />
*Upon success of gear and body retrieval or destruction, the seeker or seeker team notifies the intermediary who then arranges a delivery of the missing equipment, or informs the clan of the resolution. The seekers of Clan Luar’Ke are never to know which clan they assisted, nor will the clan involved ever know who assisted them. There is no room for glory or validation in such a crucial task, Clan Luar’Ke will do it because it must be done.<br />

*<span style="background:green">Novacti - Stry-kther Bo'ytill</span><br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
*The clan of the Bo’ytill’s was made up by different sects, each following their own style of life. These different styles of life made the clan interesting, however, it was still a clan and the ruling elders and the clan leader ensured that tradition was followed. Tradition like the blooding ceremony, and the fact that the Bo’ytill clan was a clan of heathens. Oftentimes, those persecuted for their beliefs, or lack thereof would come to the Bo’ytill’s to take on their way of life.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
*The Bo’ytill clan was hidden in an eastern quadrant of Yautja prime, far secluded from the others, as they habilitated their own way of life in a more isolated section of the planet. They used this to their advantage, the isolation enabling the ability to practice their heathen culture without being associated as outcasts in the standard Yautja culture. They also used the isolation as a benefit enabling them to hunt, without worry of outer distractions. But as we all know, nothing can last forever, and hunts to far away planets would occur.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
*The process to attain the status of blooded in the Bo’ytill clan was gruesome. It was like other clan’s blooding rites, but if you failed three times, you were dragged to a stone pillar, clamped, and the younglings who were worthy of their own lives killed you. The spot over the years had been stained with the greenish blood of the Yautja deemed unworthy to live. If you managed to survive the blooding process, and attained the status of blooded, you were given the respect you deserved. Kar-ata had succeeded in his blooding on the first attempt, as most did. It was not an easy task, but the elders didn’t want to kill off their youth, and so they ensured that they were trained and taught well.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
*The isolation enjoyed by the Bo’ytill’s enabled them to hunt without worry about interference of other clans or outer impacts, yet over time, prey dwindled. The fact that they lived in a world that had been ravaged by Cetanu made things a tad difficult. With this in mind, the elders permitted hunts outside of Yautja prime, far away on planets such as LV-624 and Shiva’s Snowball. With new hunting grounds open to them, the Bo’ytill’s hunts grew gruesome. Their savagery was intense, and they fought like beasts. Honourable beasts! They claimed many trophies for their glory, and their feasts were always hearty. Maybe even as much as a hunter’s heart.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
*Respect and tradition. A large factor of the Bo’ytill clan was the respect. Your status earned you respect. Should you fail to respect them, the clan name, or the honor code, you were severely punished. Whippings were common for miscreants, and the loss of a mandible, or finger was not too rare either. In some cases, as a capital punishment, one would be chained to a coloumn and their dreadlocks removed. You followed the code and you listened to your elders, or you wouldn’t like the consequence, especially if important rules are breached. The working castes earned their pride through their crafts, yet the truly honorable were the hunters, those who could prove their worth and deserving of respect on the hunting grounds.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
As stated in the overview of the Bo’ytill clan, there were different sects, or branches of the clan. Listed below are some of these sects. They each have their own hierarchy, but it has no authority over those outside of its own, and the leaders inside are still subject to the rule of the clan elders.<br />
*One of these was the Thwei, a word which means “Blood” in the language of the Hunters. They were a group that was renowned for their bloodlust. It was they that had first come to the elders, seeking permission to extend their hunts deeper. With the request approved, Thwei was hunting on planets all around the galaxy.<br />
*Another of the sects was The Forgers of N'ithya D’lex. N’ithya being rock, or Earth, and D’lex being a strong crystalline material used for building. Both warriors and forgers belonged to this sect, the forgers themselves were often the primary workers, but warriors and blooded interested in crafting their own weapon often came to learn and make a blade suited for their own style of fighting. This sect was somewhat secluded inside the original stance of the Bo’ytill culture, for the reason that they respected the Goddess Dlex, in secret. Not worshipped, no, respected, acknowledged, but never worshipped.<br />
*The Bhu’ja Dekna. Those of the Bhu’ja Dekna tracked their prey and prepared. They always planned ahead. Moved for weeks on end, moving from target to target, trying to find one who was truly worthy of a fight. They carefully picked their target, stalked, and struck. Careful was their name, precision was their game. Their hunting skills were on par with the Thwei, but their style varied greatly. They were robust at all manners of tracking, and knew when the time was right to strike. But never did they dare breach the honor code, hunting a weakened target, or such, for they knew the dishonor would net them a heavy punishment by the elders.<br />
*The Mo'ta'yar. The name alone being mentioned is enough to put an entire room to silence. It stood for ‘Keepers of the Code’, as the sect’s sole purpose was ensuring the Honor Code is followed, severely punishing those who broke it. Such sects existed in practically every clan to this day, it was found by no other than the Bo’ytill’s founder, Mateon-O. The sect had one of the most important duties of them all, to protect the honor of the clan by severely punishing those who break it, from severe beatings to executions, the Enforcers never failed in their task. Such an important wing of the clan was entrusted to no one else but the Clan Leader’s mate, Ma’tak-O. Se held the rank of High Enforcer, one of the many duties an Elder may be chosen for. Ma’tak-O expected nothing less from her mate, he began recruiting from the Elites of the clan for the sect, for there was no enforcing of the Honor Code without the Enforcers. <br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
<br />
Matean-O, an elder of Na’Kuel, one very worshipping and praising of gods, seeking that everything he did pleased their gods. However, after multiple encounters, and failures to please these gods Matean-O, enraged, stricken and determined that the gods were false and his whole life was a lie, fled. He took his mate with him, and rallied any others that should follow, this of course enraged the elders, in which they ordered Matean-O to leave, driving him far to the Eastern Quadrant of Yautja Prime, the Bo’ytill’s new resting place for the years to come. Word was quick, as the clan was small. They adapted the name Bo’ytill’s, Bo’ytill standing for True-Seer, or Perfect sight, adopting this name, as Matean-O fully convinced the Bo’ytills that their decision and sight was correct, the gods were false, and they would make, and alter their destiny, not some false idols...<br />
<br />
Lokath’Dag looked to Matean-O and calmly said “Matean, you have come before us on, as you say, a matter of extreme urgency, tell us. What is the problem?”<br />
The elders looked expectantly at Matean-O, who began by saying, <br />
“Years. For so many years I worshipped the gods above all else. But do you know what came of that?”<br />
At this, the elders looked towards one another, then turned back to Matean-O. <br />
“Nothing! Those… those gods are nothing but children’s tales! Meant to keep us in line. They are nothing! I devoted everything to them, but I got nothing in return, not even acknowledgement!”<br />
“Where are you going with this, Matean-O?”<br />
“It’s over. These so-called ‘gods’ are not in any way real. Can’t you see that?”<br />
Lokath'Dag nodded to himself, then looked back and forth to the others. They nodded in unison. <br />
“Go.”<br />
“What?” Matean-O took a step back, startled. “You won’t even hear me out?”<br />
Lokath'Dag slowly stood up and walked over to Matean-O. <br />
“No Matean. You have disrespected our ways! You have brought shame on yourself, coming to us like this! You, of all people. I cannot believe what I am seeing.” Lokath took a step back and calmed himself down before saying.“Matean. I do not know what has gotten into you. Go home and think. Think about what you’re saying. Rest my friend.”<br />
<br />
That night Matean made up his mind. He went to his mate, and had them get ready to leave. After getting everything ready, Matean went to face the elders. For what he hoped would be the last time.<br />
“Matean, at this time of hour? Have you come to your senses?”<br />
“It is you who must come to your senses Lokath. You still don’t get it, do you? I must say I pity you.”<br />
“It is I who pity you Matean. You know that you are no longer welcome here. You must go. Far. Far east. And never return here. You are no longer welcome.” Lokath, sighed, before turning back and leaving the room.<br />
“I will miss you old friend.” Matean said, but alas, only the empty chamber heard it…<br />
<br />
Matean took his mate, and those who he had managed to convince, and fled, heading due east. To start a new life for himself. But not only for himself. He was going to start his own clan, one where you weren’t punished just because you didn’t worship idols. He named his clan “Bo’ytill” which means True-Seer, or Perfect Sight. For he had seen the truth. And he wanted to share it. He wanted to share it with everyone he could.<br />

=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
The Nhon Clan is often regarded as one of the few remaining purely confident clans, often boasting so many young they had to inhabit a whole planet, one where they are often found hosting prolific gladiator matches in the cities testing the young in Blooding Rituals. Nhon members are often known for being the most unashamed hunter, often just walking around without using their cloaking device to test the prey nearby, anyone who had the guts to challenge them would often find them on the floor with their helmets missing afterwards as a trophy, a Nhon trademark. The clan is much more than that, boasting many academic schools of teaching, some featuring; anatomy, psychology, philosophy, and of course the art of war and the act of hunting. While also having many sources of literature which is often looked down upon, however many elites and elders might want to chronicle their life for the young ones to find inspiration and drive to become the best yautja ever. The clan is much more of a society that was looked down upon for their vast knowledge in anything they could come to possess.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
The Nhon clan have expanded so much over the years they can come to inhabit a planet known as Jiralhos, this planet large enough to be habitable for many species for the Nhon clan to hunt and still live peacefully in their multiple cities spanning acrossing the globe. The cities have vast variety in each depending on the sect of Nhon you find yourself in, from marketplace, schools, temples, and coliseums the cities have a lot to offer for the Nhon members. Multiple sects are known for having their very own species preservation which consists of a vast ecosystem filled with multiple strong creatures to hunt and observe for the Nhon.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
The Nhon clan blooding ritual is a much tougher ordeal than is standard, due to high expectations the leaders have for every hunter, and the principles the clan tends to follow. In order to even attempt the ritual, an Unblooded must meet the following criteria:<br />
<br />
- A tie or greater in a spar versus a Blooded hunter.<br />
- A passing score on a mental aptitude test.<br />
- Has made active contributions to areas of learning or debate.<br />
- A vouch from a Blooded hunter (not the one they sparred with, however).<br />
<br />
Once an Unblooded has qualified for the Blooding Ritual, they are taken to a gladiatorial arena located on the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos. This is where they must pass two trials:<br />
<br />
The Trial of Prowess - Two human gladiators are released into the arena, the Unblooded’s objective is to defeat the two gladiators without killing them, if the gladiators land four hits (two each) on the Unblooded, the trial is failed. If the gladiators are killed, the trial is failed. The objective of this trial is to prove that the Unblooded has the precision, prowess, and restraint enough to accomplish victory without killing anything in an outnumbered battle.<br />
<br />
The Trial of Solidarity - Once the gladiators are defeated, a Tier Three R’ka (usually a Praetorian or a Ravager) is released into the arena. The Unblooded’s goal is to kill it, however after sixty seconds, Tier One R’ka will begin being released into the arena. The Unblooded MUST NOT kill any Tier One R’ka, their only goal is to kill the Tier Three and escape the arena with the body intact. This will become their first trophy and allow them to become a Blooded member of <br />
the Nhon clan.<br />
<br />
Failed Rituals<br />
<br />
In the Nhon clan, Unbloodeds who have failed the Blooding Ritual will be forced to work as a pseudo-slave for one of the busier Blooded members for five years. While it is a distinctly unpleasant experience, there have very rarely been hunters who failed again after enduring these gruelling years.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
The hunt is considered to be the Nhon Clans favorite activity.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
Leader Rhuu’Nhon’s Helmet Stash<br />
<br />
Amongst some of the Nhon hunters, there have been many rumblings about Rhuu’Nhon’s trophy collection. Many have seen Rhuu take helmets for trophies, but her trophy room contains none of them. In addition to this, there is an unmarked attached room by Rhuu’Nhon’s private quarters, that she does not let any hunters enter. This has all but confirmed, in the eyes of her clan members, that she keeps an entire private room exclusively for helmets she has collected, which they consider quite amusing.<br />
<br />
Nhon Artists<br />
<br />
Many of the creative Blooded clan members within the clan have taken up “art”, after one of the hunters brought back a human artbook, and the competitive blood within them sparked a desire to prove they are better “artists” than any human. The art faction is constantly growing, now having their own dedicated rooms and even beginning to map out their own hub.<br />
<br />
Statue of the Founder<br />
<br />
In the central hub of the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos , there is a statue that was built hollow, and the body of the founding member was placed inside. None of the hunters have found any records as to why this was done, but they do not deny that it makes them feel closer to the Founder. Some hunters believe that every few years his spirit returns to gaze upon the clan he built once more.<br />
<br />
Hot Blood<br />
<br />
Due to the constant self-improvement philosophy of the clan, many of the hunters within it possess extremely competitive personalities. The desire to prove they truly are the best is so prevalent that entire days have been spent bickering over things as minor as handwriting and effigy crafting.<br />
<br />
Other Clans<br />
<br />
The official status that the Nhons have towards other clans is, generally, “We’re smarter than you, and better hunters too!” However, when another clan demonstrates knowledge or prowess that is largely unknown to the Nhons, they will usually send emissaries or powerful hunters to try and gain the knowledge they’re missing out on. Truly incorrigible.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
(N/A)<br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
K’zar-Nhon<br />
<br />
K’zar-Nhon was the first and founding member of the Nhon clan, exiled from his birth clan for not being enough of a “hunter” in the clan’s eyes, he turned to creating his own clan of hunters to spread his way of hunting and living to others, in the hopes to one day create the perfect Yautja - both a scholar and a hunter.<br />

<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*An obscure but old Yautja Clan, the De’Rojok Clan, also known as the ‘Coroners’ or ‘Record Keepers’ is mostly dedicated to S’ahul and The Literary Art. Unlike other clans, the Coroners are often seen collecting pieces of literature from other alien races, such as humans. These are more or less discarded shortly after a full read but on some rare occasions may find their place in the clan’s Library as pieces of entertainment or an analogical look at humanity’s psychological or anatomical make-up. <br />
<br />
*The De’Rojok Clan’s warriors are known to use thrown weapons and often carry a combi-stick.<br />
<br />
*While all Yautja Hunters take trophies, a member of the Record Keepers also carries along a journal and an incredibly sharp but durable pen. Using the back of the pen, the Yautja draws some of its own blood and uses it to write down his kill, it’s habits, any defining features, the time to kill and finally, the killing blow. This serves to remind the hunter that every kill takes blood and sweat, and to ensure the Yautja betters himself with every kill. Writing in the book is not an immediate action following a kill, but it is recommended to note the details down as soon as possible<br />
<br />
*Writing a whole book is generally seen as a sign of great prestige and dedication, the book being quickly deposited in the clan’s library along with many others, in order to become lectures of youngbloods.<br />

====Clan Mei'ka, the Maidens.====<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''Unknownity - Shi'rei Mei'ka'''<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
* The Mei'ka clan is a clan once filled with tragedy and now reformed as the ashes of the remaining members rose up to take back what is theirs. It was once an average clan and now it is a clan dedicated to Dtekale and their faith is all around her. The clan is made out of females only who have found a different desire and purpose where they would be shunned or even killed by other clans if known about it. Their desire is all about the Hunt to succeed and show Dtekale their might and skills and strengthen their spirit.<br />
======Location:======<br />
* The clan’s home is located in the southern quadrant of ████ Prime where religion isn’t as completely centralized thus other clans who live nearby do not mind how the Mei’ka clan portrays the Goddess Dtekale differently. Wherever the Mei'ka clan is, there will always be a temple nearby dedicated to Dtekale. The clan is currently expanding its hunting outposts and temples beyond the home planet.<br />
======Religion:======<br />
* The Mei’ka clan is highly religious only towards a specific deity which is the Goddess of women and birth, Dtekale. The Goddess is portrayed differently by the clan, having a larger emphasis on women. The widows questioned why there is a god for women but not for men. They believe only certain females could become hunters. They believe the raw strength and strive for the hunt which isn’t common for females was a sign that they had Dtekale’s spirit within them. Their conclusion about why most females didn’t have the Goddess’ spirit was due to them becoming child makers and mates as it made them weak and lose their strive to hunt and rather stay at home. Not having the spirit of the Goddess was a sign of weakness for them and they would do anything to keep the spirit inside them or else they would lose their respect for their fellow sisters and be kicked out of the clan or be transferred to the working caste or turned into a serf.<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
* The Blooding rite for the Mei’ka clan is very demanding and difficult for most female Yautja as it revolves around the strive and desire to hunt which most females do not have. For one to complete their Blooding rite, they have proven themselves to bear the spirit of Dtekale. If they were to fail the rite, the un-blooded would receive harsh punishments in return, they were then taken to the clan’s Shaman for them to attempt to wake their spirit of Dtekale. If they failed the rite a second time, then they had no place in the clan’s finest and were given labor roles and remain unblooded for their life, that is if they lived.<br />
* The Mei’ka blooding rite has 3 main principles:<br />
# The rite must be considered already challenging to male hunters<br />
# The main objective is to secure a trophy of the prey you were given to hunt<br />
# You are required to be stripped of everything but a single spear and loincloths to achieve the same experience as Dtekale had during her age of being inside a mortal body<br />
======Reputation:======<br />
* The Mei’ka clan has an interesting reputation among other clans who know them, especially those who knew the Mei’ka clan before its revision. Due to the infamous disappearance of all the males in the clan, other clans believe they had to be involved with the disappearance as how could all the males disappear without a trace? Due to that, those who knew about the old Mei’ka clan, do not trust the current one and avoid them with their best effort. Because of the Mei’ka clan rejecting the traditional purpose of a female Yautja, they are generally disliked by traditionalists. Mei’ka views females of other clans as weak unless they are a part of the warrior caste and have no mate. Due to their stance about having a mate and becoming a child-maker, other clans have started calling them the Maidens.<br />
======History:======<br />
* Founded by Bokahn Mei’ka, the clan was originally just like any other clan as they had the same practices and standards. The clan had a special event that occurred once every four years and lasted two months where all the males in the clan went away to partake in a large hunting party and returned with a large feast to share with the females. Even the males in the working caste joined the event to help the warriors in particular activities where they couldn’t do it on their own. However one fateful event, they never returned. Their ship went missing and it couldn’t be tracked, the same goes for the gear the males had. They all disappeared without a trace and many conspiracies were formed by other clans who knew the Mei’ka clan. Some conspiracies talked about how the females sabotaged the ship and the gear to disable their tracking systems and sent the ship far into the unknown where it could never be found, some conspiracies simply say that the ship was sucked into a black hole or was completely disintegrated by unknown means. What was known is that they are all gone and will never come back. The remaining females in the clan were now called the widows by other clans and subsequently, the clan itself was called the widow clan. Instead of dissolving the clan, they decided to change it completely to the point of it being entirely different. They believed to be lucky to survive the extinction of their old clan, they believed Dtekale protected them and thus centered the clan around her and about women. The incident is now a reminder and curse to them, to never allow males into the clan or else they would suffer the same fate, not because they hated males or thought they were superior to them. The new founder Kay’ta Mei’ka returned the clan from its ashes and became a sanctuary for females who rejected their purpose to bear pups and have mates and rather focused on The Hunt. Currently, nobody still knows what happened to the males and the truth will never come to light.<br />

<hr><br />
=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''Snakebitten - Ikthya-de Ka'uliik'''<br />
*aguia vermelha - Shaq'Klahoo<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
A ship-based clan of gluttons and seasoned killers, the Ka'uliik are sustenance hunters. A burgeoning clan with a population still rising to this day, the Ka’uliik are more focused on sustaining their clan than glory alone. Strong in their reverence to Tharda and Paya alike, these carnivores have become passionate gourmands with a bottomless stomach.<br />
======History:======<br />
The Ka’uliik’s origins start from a single Yautja: Zu-G’ki’ke. One of noble birth born thousands of years ago, he was destined for greatness. By all accounts, he was an absolute powerhouse of a Yautja. An incredible stature, dreadlocks down to his hips, and strength enough to lift lesser Yautja with a single hand; let alone puncture clan armor with only his thumb claws. His success as a Hunter led to his success as a mate, fathering thousands of children. He led his harem, his progeny, and those that would follow him to his ideal of a promised land; a lush world teeming with thrillingly dangerous life. They hngs haad become a new clan; the Ka’uliik, with Zu-G’ki’ke as their ancestral Clan Leader. However, thid taken a turn for the worse. Even after their leader’s passing at four thousand years old, his newfound Clan was rapidly exploding in population, and this overgrowth meant a demand for food. Within thousands of years, the Ka’uliik’s skilled Hunters had picked clean nearly all edible prey on their homeworld, and there was scarce left to eat. Zu-G’ki’ke’s grandchild, Clan Leader at the time, diverted their resources and metalworking to the creation of a single ship to perform their exodus. Though they were at quite an old age when the vessel was completed, the deed was done. This had become the ship Agaj’ya, and forever would the Ka’uliik travel nomadically from place to place, Hunters by obligation.<br />
======Clan Structure======<br />
The Ka’uliik have their residence in a particularly massive ship. Shaking the trend of other clans to live in a variety of vessels, their homeship Agaj’ya is very densely populated, one of the largest and most well-inhabited vessels known to Yautjakind, and still being expanded to this day. Living conditions are rather difficult due to the sheer amount of mouths to feed, and living space is often cramped. They are known to be less wealthy than others, resources being shared among a collective whole. They are tightly-knit community, residents all doing their part to help the clan succeed. This has given their clan an egalitarian mindset out of necessity; age and sex are much less of a barrier than other clans, barring diseases and deformities, anyone can and should hunt. All occupations are of equal value and importance, and anyone from ferocious Hunters to the workers that forge their weapons are focused on ensuring their siblings thrive despite scarcity<br />
======Religion:======<br />
The Ka’uliik observe their deadly duo, Tharda and Paya, with great reverence. Their lifestyle focuses around appeasing their Gods, ritually imbibing near-every part of their prey on their behalf. Nothing is wasted and every part is used, in accordance with their belief that their Gods have given their clan the ability to absorb the strength from their prey upon consuming them, and sharing their quarry amongst the Clan strengthens it as a whole. <br />
After killing their prey, it is field dressed. During the process, a Hunter will call upon Paya and Tharde to observe their work, and to dedicate the prey’s body parts to them. Every possible cut of meat, skins, furs, and scales are all taken. Blood is drunk or otherwise used for rituals, and bones are ground down to bone meal. Sinews, fat and organs all have their use as well.<br />
A small portion of the prey may be consumed by the Hunter themselves, to strengthen them for what is to come, and to ensure they do not go hungry while there’s work to be done. However, the bulk of the quarry’s ‘byproducts’ are returned to their ship and packed away. The theft of food or even a stolen jawbone is the fastest way to draw the Ka’uliik’s ire.<br />
======Behavior======<br />
While all members of the clan naturally have their own way of going about hunting game, there is often some division between older or younger members. '''This ain’t mandatory, just flavor, do what you like.'''<br />
<br />
Older members of the clan, typically at the least Elites, are more cool-headed and go about their killing in a ‘sportier’ manner. They are likely to make a game of tracking down their quarry, and might even announce to their chosen mark that they are coming. Whips are commonly seen in their hands, used to torture prey and ensure that more of the corpse can be used. They are typically of a more refined palate given the wide range of food they’ve eaten and cooked, and have specific sorts of prey they hunt; claiming them to be of utmost flavor. They are also known to rarely use their cloaking devices, preferring to chase down their prey and frighten them to ‘get the juices flowing.’<br />
<br />
Younger members of the clan, inexperienced as they may be, vibrate with bloodlust and reek of aggression. They hunt as animals do, typically using their wristblades to get up close and personal. Having a burning hunger, an overall higher amount of energy available to them, and a less experienced palate means that younger Blooded tend to eat with little preference towards or against certain meals. The younger members also typically go without their cloaking devices, appreciating the value of a good chase.<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
The Blooding ritual is, of course, meant to prepare up and coming hunters for the real deal. After completing their training in the operation of their (limited) weapons, bioscans are used to locate a world with dangerous prey. A ship full of twelve to forty Unblooded and a single experienced older hunter are sent out, the engine forcibly disabled for a year; stranding the would be Hunters on their new grounds. In most cases, at least one of the tireless sprats will die. In very rare cases, the ship will never return; the world being earmarked as a place of interest. However, the ritual does not see its end once the vessel returns. Each hunter is expected to bring back triple their weight in fresh kill, and furthermore expected to prepare and host a feast for their homeship. The killed prey is taken with the would-be Blooded, and butchered directly in front of the high-ranks judging them. This is to ensure the trainees are not wasting even a single part of the kill, and incorporating as much as they possibly can into the meal. Once eaten and approved of, this ceremonial banquet concludes their training.<br />
======Reputation:======<br />
The Ka'uliik are regarded in many lights. Some clans think of them as heretics, shirking other Gods in favor of the myths of their two-deity pantheon. A few clans might outright refuse to hunt alongside them. Others might fixate on their ‘primitive’ ways, boasting the way their own clan doesn’t need to hunt for something as basic as food. They’re viewed in many circles as the most ‘classical’ of Yautja hunters, though some might admire their dedication. Many clans know the Ka’uliik simply for the meals they make, their culinary skill at arranging human flesh in just the right combination of flavors becoming widespread.<br />

WORK-IN-PROGRESS<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
====Early History:====<br />
<br />
For an eon the clans roamed the lush continents of their homeworld as nomads, trailing the herds of their various prey. Encounters between tribes were rare, and often aggressive or violent. The clans rarely stayed long in any fixed location, as the seasons turned so did their prey migrate around the globe.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
Their infrequent meetings, and it’s accompanying aggression, severely inhibited their technological advancement. Even after a hundred thousand years following this lifestyle the Yautja ancestry continued in this fashion, following the food across continents. Speech was well developed, but extremely narrow. Each clan had their own dialect and few could communicate with other tribes.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
The ages passed and the clans continued in their primitive state, chasing the twin suns as they hunted. Many millennia onwards and their way of life was thrust into a race for survival. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
A large asteroid of unknown origin smashed into their world and tore it’s continents from their bedrock. The entire planet rapidly heated and became a baked desert world, it’s environment now hostile to most forms of large life, many perished in a short period of time, whole clans were wiped out and the majority of the fauna the Yautja depended on to feed were decimated. Faced with cooperation or death, the survivors gradually grouped together to honor the fallen and to endure the disaster.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the landscape permanently disfigured, barren and strewn with the remains of countless lives the Yautja were forced to advance rapidly or face extinction. The remaining clans came together and pooled all their knowledge, resources and skills and elected a body of the wisest Yautja in hope of guidance to a return to their former strength. This guiding entity would later become the Council of Ancients.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Reformation:====<br />
<br />
For centuries after the disaster that befell their world the clans struggled to survive, but the Council of Ancients was the light in the darkness that had enveloped the landscape.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Strict disciplinary action on what, where and when the clans could hunt was the first edict set in stone. For if what little of the food supply that remained were to be hunted into extinction, then the entirety of the race would face annihilation. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Prior to the disaster, the clans had a loose system of religious beliefs that varied mightily. Some clans held animilistic beliefs, others held the belief that the two orbs in the sky were gods, some had no beliefs at all. The Council of Ancients, seeking to centralize the clans, saw the benefit in an organized religious system, one to which could help to drive the clans forward and out of the wastes of their battered homeworld. They were quick to seek out the wisest of the surviving Seers and Shamans and quicker still to set them to work on centralizing the myriad of religious systems into one. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Nytara and N’ithya, old names for the two stars in the sky, were adopted as the father and mother pairing who travelled the universe looking to create their offspring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon reaching what would become the homeworld of the clans, Nytara and N’ithya found Ger’Cetanun, a great titan made up of rock that rested upon the planet. Tired and battered from their journey, the two gods wished to rest but Ger’Cetanun would not allow it and demanded the interlopers move along. Facing exhaustion if they continued on without pause, Nytara and N’ithya fought the titan until they defeated it, crushing its inflexible, jagged body into rubble. In the brief span before his demise Ger’Cetanun swore he would return and seek vengeance. His proclamation made, Ger’Cetanun shattered into millions of pieces with his remains settling to become the planetary ring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Having dispersed Ger’Cetanun across the skies Nytara and N’ithya dwelled heavily on his warnings of vengeance. Knowing deep within themselves he would one day return to take his revenge, the gods decided to create the perfect warriors born of their blood. Beings that could one day stand against Ger’Cetanun and vanquish him for eternity. Drawing upon the spilt blood of Nytara pooled in the skies, N’ithya sent it falling to the planetary surface, swirling around as they fell the pools of blood split and scattered into a thousand droplets which rained down on the world. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon striking the surface each droplet crystalised in the ground leaving intricate patterns in their wake, owing to the creationary nature of Nytara’s blood and the blessings of N’ithya, these patterns would later begin to replicate in the surrounding environment and later still would become the sigils of each clan. Everywhere the blood struck life blossomed, jungles sprouted and plains grew, over the course of 3 years Nytara and N’ithya nurtured the world into a landscape of immense dangers and strength. The gods poured their energies into the planet and vastly accelerated the development of it’s flora and fauna until they deemed it ready for their offspring.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Cetanu Crisis:====<br />
<br />
In the depths of empty space a dark seed began to stir. Left by Ger’Ceteanun long ago this seed would grow to become his vengeance, his legacy of destruction and suffering. Cetanu, the black death.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Like his father before him Cetanu was a Titan. Owing to the deep connection Ger’Cetanun had with Cetanu while he was developing lightyears away, Cetanu imbibed many of the strengths and traits N’ithya and Nytara presented in their battle with his father. This adaptation would give Cetanu an edge Ger’Cetanun was greatly missing and make his resurgence all the more devastating. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
From the dark shadows of the stellar void Cetanu observed the planet his father had resided upon and saw that the two gods had created a formidable race of warriors in their image. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Over the ages, Cetanu prepared himself for battle with the interloper race to which had laid claim to the homeworld of his father. Once the time was right, Cetanu fulfilled his destiny and unleashed himself onto the homeworld of the trespassers, destroying the majority of the planet and the warrior race to which staked their claim. Cetanu could not fully fulfill his destiny though. The warrior race turned out to be much stronger than he had anticipated. They crawled up from the fires of extinction and vowed to eliminate Cetanu. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the clans re-established themselves, and their religion became more organized, Cetanu was eventually adopted into the pantheon as the embodiment of death, and the ultimate warrior to which the hunters would strive to defeat in battle. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the ages passed the hunters and their faith developed, the pantheon grew larger. Gods and goddesses symbolizing various real world aspects were added to the Pantheon.<br />
<br />
<br />
====The separation of the castes:====<br />
<br />
To further centralize their burgeoning civilization, the Council of Ancients decreed that a focus needed to be placed on the rapid development of technology and industry. The families to which had their skills centered around the trades, arts, and sciences were conscripted and let loose to conduct their work, under the leadership of the warrior caste - who had always led the clans. Due to their vital work, the council of ancients made it law that the offspring of all members of the trade caste would be educated in the ways of their elders, to ensure that there would be a continuity of knowledge and that no momentum would be lost. <br />
<br />
<br />
====Advancement:====<br />
<br />
The process of moving forward wasn’t without it’s cost. The planet did not properly begin to cool and stabilize for many millennia, making the simplest tasks difficult and treacherous at the best of times. Brute strength, perseverance, and a refusal to see their honor tarnished through failure, allowed the clans to keep moving forward.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
During the Ikthala Reformation, the hunters saw their creation by the twin gods as an act of creating the perfect race. This dogma began to propagate throughout their society, it’s roots being in their survival after the arrival of Cetanu. It was believed that the gods had blessed them with their perfect forms, and surviving Cetanu had reinforced this belief of divine heritage.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Elements of proclamations made just after Centanu’s arrival remained. The hunters were kept in check via strict discipline within their clans, a remnant of when order was key for survival. Unruly, treacherous, and unhinged members were remanded and punished harshly, sometimes via exile but often through capital punishment. At times there were such egregious acts committed that the stain of imperfection from the act sunk deep into the guilty hunters clan. In cases like these the clan was exterminated to prevent the act from recurring and from the dishonor spreading. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Within the stabilization period there was a quick advancement in technology. The clans saw remarkable scientific breakthroughs over the next 10 millenia. Dirt and rubble evolved into brick and mortar, bronze and tin into iron and then steel, and so on. From industrial, to atomic, to digital, the hunters were an intelligent species that, once given proper direction, could perform remarkable feats. As they progressed, the clans began to view their technological prowess as an extension to their divine strength. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As their technological level progressed, so did their society. The strict decrees set forth by the Council of Ancients evolved into an overarching set of laws that began to govern all facets of society. The issue of union, the value of work and trade, how hunts were properly performed all fell under this new code of honor. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Soon enough the hunters had reached the age of space flight. They were able to explore the other planets in their system and see for themselves the entirety of their cradle. As the hunters began to explore the other worlds in their system they discovered the next planet out from theirs was rife with life. The hunters were not alone in the universe.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the fauna on their planet still limited, the clans began visiting their neighboring world and hunting the local alien species, both for sustenance and as a source for honing their skills. As the millenia passed the clans were able to explore further and further, eventually reaching the point where they were able to touch other stars. Upon setting foot on planets underneath other stars, the hunters began to see the universe as being theirs by divine right, bestowed onto them by their creators. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Although long ago, the damage to their homeworld was near irreparable. This drove the clans to begin seeking out territory elsewhere. While countless clans continued to reside on the homeworld, many created large vessels and set forth into the stars, returning to their nomadic roots and roaming the stars, calling no place but their vessel home. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the hunters touched other star systems, they came into contact with other sentient life. Most of the species they encountered were in much lower technological states than them, and were incapable of warding off the hunters however, most had individuals or groups that were able to provide ample sport or fodder to the burgeoning clans. Worthy specimens were seized from their homeworlds and planted onto reserves so as not to disrupt the natural ecosystems and destroy the future of the stock, for the hunters had learned how valuable ecological and biological balance is.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
After asserting their strength across the near galaxy the Hunter Clans settled into a lethargic routine. Periodically hunting the many worlds within their expansive domain, they did nothing in a hurry as their lives grew long and their hunts became leisure and pride over necessity. This state is how they have existed for over a thousand years, and how they will continue for a thousand more.<br />

The hunters are an endothermic bipedal reptilian species. They have limited sexual dimorphism and both genders mature at similar rates and to similar builds. The species grows to be between 6 and 8 feet, and an average mature individual rounds out at around 500lbs. <br />
<br />
<br />
The species can live upwards of 2,000 years, though there are accounts of members of the species living 2,500 or more. Members of the species live very arduous and brutal lives, and incur great amounts of physical damage through their lifetimes. This fact sees many individuals dying ‘early’ with the average life expectancy of the species therefore around 800-1,000 years.<br />
<br />
<br />
Females are the birthing gender in the species. Hunters have a very long gestation period, lasting around 3 years. Infants ‘pups’ are born live, though encased in a hard embryonic sac. The struggle to breakfree from the sac is a difficult process, but it assists pups in quickly developing their muscles. Not all pups are able to break free from their sacs, and it is common within the darwinian culture of the hunters to allow for those pups to die - as these are seen as imperfect offspring and were not meant for life. Pups who are successfully reared reach puberty at around 100 years, with maturity occuring at the 200 year mark <br />
<br />
<br />
The hunters are a carnivorous species, their diet consisting of protein and lipid rich meats. They are incapable of processing carbohydrates, their livers being unable to break them down. This evolutionary dependence on meat has resulted in the species not having established any crop growing agriculture systems. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have very large hearts, and a strong cardiovascular system that has allowed for their large growth. Subsequently, this has resulted in the hunters generating great amounts of body heat. This heat is regulated via a set of tentacles, akin to dreadlocks, that extend from the back and side of their skulls. These dreadlocks shed waste heat from the body and continue to grow until death. The removal of one's dreadlocks is a death sentence, as soon after their bodies will cook their own organs until death. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have 4 mandibles that protrude from the front of their face that surround the entrance to their mouth. These mandibles are tightly pressed to the entrance to their mouth, making the process of opening their mouth somewhat difficult. This has resulted in the species developing a language centered around the use of clicks and rattles to which they form with the use of their mandibles. There are a number of sensory organs lining each mandible which are able to pick up small changes in air pressure and detect aromas in the air.<br />
<br />
<br />
The species sight is in the infrared spectrum, allowing them all weather, all day vision. Their eyes are protected by several membrane layers that protect against the environment and soft debris. <br />
<br />
<br />
Phenomenal strength is a hallmark of the species with the average mature individual able to jump three times their height, and easily capable of ripping flesh from bone and in some cases directly parting bones from bodies regardless of the flesh attached. Due to minimal sexual dimorphism in the species, males and females gain the same amount of muscle mass and grow to near identical sizes. <br />
<br />
<br />
Their bodies are incredibly resilient, being able to endure significant damage before critical failures begin to occur. The majority of their skeletal structure is made up of a weaved network of bone and cartilage that helps to protect and cushion against blunt force trauma.<br />
<br />
<br />
Thick quills grow over time on the face, back and chest of the species. These quills act as a defence mechanism, but also as a sign of maturity and one's position within society. Quills begin growing shortly after a pup breaks free of it’s sac, and they appear black and are pliable, but turn grey and brittle in old age. As a Hunter grows it will lose many quills throughout its lifetime, and while they do grow back with time, each new set is less durable than the one that came before it.<br />

<tab name="Council of Ancients"><br />
*'''My word is law, my will divine.'''<br />
*Ancients make up the ruling body of Hunter society known as the Council of Ancients. Ancients are incredibly old and wise Clan Leaders who have been chosen to sit on the council by its current members. An ancients word is law and is something that is never ignored. To ignore the will of an ancient is to bring death and dishonor on you and your clan.<br />
</tab><br />
<tab name="Clan Leaders"><br />
*'''I am your future, he who will decide your fate.'''<br />
*Clan Leaders are the highest authority in Hunter society aside from the Council of Ancients. Clan leaders oversee all aspects of their clans, and have complete authority over each member of the clan. Clan Leaders have participated in countless hunts, killed many rivals, and gained a lifetime of honor and prestige. Clan Leaders hold their position until dying in combat. Clan Leaders can go on to become sitting members on the council of Ancients.<br />
</tab><br />
<tab name="Clan Elders"><br />
*'''Through strength I endure, through endurance I age. With age I grow wise, with wisdom I rise.'''<br />
*The oldest, wisest and strongest of all Hunters within a specific clan.<br />
*Elders are highly respected and honoured Hunters who act as teachers for young bloods and the unblooded. They are older Hunters who have made a name for themselves by becoming masters of specific skills. They will often lead hunting expeditions, and have near sole authority in choosing which members of the clan participate. Elders will vy to become Clan Leaders once their current Clan leader perishes.<br />

=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*For as long as Hunters have traveled the stars, there has always been a lingering concern: what happens when equipment falls into the wrong hands? One solution was the self-destruct mechanism within every Blooded’s wrist-bracer. However, there was still a further problem should a Hunter be incapacitated or killed before the Self-destruct mechanism is triggered. In most situations, the fallen’s clan would be responsible for retrieval/destruction of the lost gear or bodies. However, in the event of a tomb being desecrated or a similar situation that requires discretion, a specialist is an option. Clan Luar’Ke is an otherwise average clan on the surface, to discourage interlopers or those who would interfere in their duties. Most Blooded members of Clan Luar’Ke are trained heavily in infiltration and achieving their objectives with minimal footprint through Ikthya-de Chiva, the Umbra Trials.<br />
*In the event their services are required, a seeker is notified by a Clan Luar’ke intermediary and through the proper channels is provided the circumstances and details surrounding the missing gear/body: last known location of the items in question, possible events surrounding the lost items, and potential obstacles that would be in the seeker’s path. The seeker is not informed to which clan has made contact, or which clan the missing gear belongs to. The only relevant information is anything that assists the seeker in accomplishing their objective. The seeker is then sent in either solo or in a very small team to resolve the situation. The seeker or seeker team typically has compartmentalized objectives to accomplish:<br />
# Locate and retrieve/destroy all lost pieces of equipment as well as Hunter corpses if applicable.<br />
# If any research or data has been accomplished involving Hunter biology or equipment, destroy or render said data/research useless.<br />
# Leave no/minimal evidence of Hunter involvement.<br />
# Keep damage to structures and environments to a minimum unless necessary for success of objectives 1 through 3.<br />
*Upon success of gear and body retrieval or destruction, the seeker or seeker team notifies the intermediary who then arranges a delivery of the missing equipment, or informs the clan of the resolution. The seekers of Clan Luar’Ke are never to know which clan they assisted, nor will the clan involved ever know who assisted them. There is no room for glory or validation in such a crucial task, Clan Luar’Ke will do it because it must be done.<br />

<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
*The clan of the Bo’ytill’s was made up by different sects, each following their own style of life. These different styles of life made the clan interesting, however, it was still a clan and the ruling elders and the clan leader ensured that tradition was followed. Tradition like the blooding ceremony, and the fact that the Bo’ytill clan was a clan of heathens. Oftentimes, those persecuted for their beliefs, or lack thereof would come to the Bo’ytill’s to take on their way of life.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
*The Bo’ytill clan was hidden in an eastern quadrant of Yautja prime, far secluded from the others, as they habilitated their own way of life in a more isolated section of the planet. They used this to their advantage, the isolation enabling the ability to practice their heathen culture without being associated as outcasts in the standard Yautja culture. They also used the isolation as a benefit enabling them to hunt, without worry of outer distractions. But as we all know, nothing can last forever, and hunts to far away planets would occur.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
*The process to attain the status of blooded in the Bo’ytill clan was gruesome. It was like other clan’s blooding rites, but if you failed three times, you were dragged to a stone pillar, clamped, and the younglings who were worthy of their own lives killed you. The spot over the years had been stained with the greenish blood of the Yautja deemed unworthy to live. If you managed to survive the blooding process, and attained the status of blooded, you were given the respect you deserved. Kar-ata had succeeded in his blooding on the first attempt, as most did. It was not an easy task, but the elders didn’t want to kill off their youth, and so they ensured that they were trained and taught well.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
*The isolation enjoyed by the Bo’ytill’s enabled them to hunt without worry about interference of other clans or outer impacts, yet over time, prey dwindled. The fact that they lived in a world that had been ravaged by Cetanu made things a tad difficult. With this in mind, the elders permitted hunts outside of Yautja prime, far away on planets such as LV-624 and Shiva’s Snowball. With new hunting grounds open to them, the Bo’ytill’s hunts grew gruesome. Their savagery was intense, and they fought like beasts. Honourable beasts! They claimed many trophies for their glory, and their feasts were always hearty. Maybe even as much as a hunter’s heart.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
*Respect and tradition. A large factor of the Bo’ytill clan was the respect. Your status earned you respect. Should you fail to respect them, the clan name, or the honor code, you were severely punished. Whippings were common for miscreants, and the loss of a mandible, or finger was not too rare either. In some cases, as a capital punishment, one would be chained to a coloumn and their dreadlocks removed. You followed the code and you listened to your elders, or you wouldn’t like the consequence, especially if important rules are breached. The working castes earned their pride through their crafts, yet the truly honorable were the hunters, those who could prove their worth and deserving of respect on the hunting grounds.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
As stated in the overview of the Bo’ytill clan, there were different sects, or branches of the clan. Listed below are some of these sects. They each have their own hierarchy, but it has no authority over those outside of its own, and the leaders inside are still subject to the rule of the clan elders.<br />
*One of these was the Thwei, a word which means “Blood” in the language of the Hunters. They were a group that was renowned for their bloodlust. It was they that had first come to the elders, seeking permission to extend their hunts deeper. With the request approved, Thwei was hunting on planets all around the galaxy.<br />
*Another of the sects was The Forgers of N'ithya D’lex. N’ithya being rock, or Earth, and D’lex being a strong crystalline material used for building. Both warriors and forgers belonged to this sect, the forgers themselves were often the primary workers, but warriors and blooded interested in crafting their own weapon often came to learn and make a blade suited for their own style of fighting. This sect was somewhat secluded inside the original stance of the Bo’ytill culture, for the reason that they respected the Goddess Dlex, in secret. Not worshipped, no, respected, acknowledged, but never worshipped.<br />
*The Bhu’ja Dekna. Those of the Bhu’ja Dekna tracked their prey and prepared. They always planned ahead. Moved for weeks on end, moving from target to target, trying to find one who was truly worthy of a fight. They carefully picked their target, stalked, and struck. Careful was their name, precision was their game. Their hunting skills were on par with the Thwei, but their style varied greatly. They were robust at all manners of tracking, and knew when the time was right to strike. But never did they dare breach the honor code, hunting a weakened target, or such, for they knew the dishonor would net them a heavy punishment by the elders.<br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
<br />
Matean-O, an elder of Na’Kuel, one very worshipping and praising of gods, seeking that everything he did pleased their gods. However, after multiple encounters, and failures to please these gods Matean-O, enraged, stricken and determined that the gods were false and his whole life was a lie, fled. He took his mate with him, and rallied any others that should follow, this of course enraged the elders, in which they ordered Matean-O to leave, driving him far to the Eastern Quadrant of Yautja Prime, the Bo’ytill’s new resting place for the years to come. Word was quick, as the clan was small. They adapted the name Bo’ytill’s, Bo’ytill standing for True-Seer, or Perfect sight, adopting this name, as Matean-O fully convinced the Bo’ytills that their decision and sight was correct, the gods were false, and they would make, and alter their destiny, not some false idols...<br />
<br />
Lokath’Dag looked to Matean-O and calmly said “Matean, you have come before us on, as you say, a matter of extreme urgency, tell us. What is the problem?”<br />
The elders looked expectantly at Matean-O, who began by saying, <br />
“Years. For so many years I worshipped the gods above all else. But do you know what came of that?”<br />
At this, the elders looked towards one another, then turned back to Matean-O. <br />
“Nothing! Those… those gods are nothing but children’s tales! Meant to keep us in line. They are nothing! I devoted everything to them, but I got nothing in return, not even acknowledgement!”<br />
“Where are you going with this, Matean-O?”<br />
“It’s over. These so-called ‘gods’ are not in any way real. Can’t you see that?”<br />
Lokath'Dag nodded to himself, then looked back and forth to the others. They nodded in unison. <br />
“Go.”<br />
“What?” Matean-O took a step back, startled. “You won’t even hear me out?”<br />
Lokath'Dag slowly stood up and walked over to Matean-O. <br />
“No Matean. You have disrespected our ways! You have brought shame on yourself, coming to us like this! You, of all people. I cannot believe what I am seeing.” Lokath took a step back and calmed himself down before saying.“Matean. I do not know what has gotten into you. Go home and think. Think about what you’re saying. Rest my friend.”<br />
<br />
That night Matean made up his mind. He went to his mate, and had them get ready to leave. After getting everything ready, Matean went to face the elders. For what he hoped would be the last time.<br />
“Matean, at this time of hour? Have you come to your senses?”<br />
“It is you who must come to your senses Lokath. You still don’t get it, do you? I must say I pity you.”<br />
“It is I who pity you Matean. You know that you are no longer welcome here. You must go. Far. Far east. And never return here. You are no longer welcome.” Lokath, sighed, before turning back and leaving the room.<br />
“I will miss you old friend.” Matean said, but alas, only the empty chamber heard it…<br />
<br />
Matean took his mate, and those who he had managed to convince, and fled, heading due east. To start a new life for himself. But not only for himself. He was going to start his own clan, one where you weren’t punished just because you didn’t worship idols. He named his clan “Bo’ytill” which means True-Seer, or Perfect Sight. For he had seen the truth. And he wanted to share it. He wanted to share it with everyone he could.<br />

====Clan Nhon====<br />
=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''<span style="background:green">MymindisBlank - Shou'Nhon</span>'''<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
The Nhon Clan is often regarded as one of the few remaining purely confident clans, often boasting so many young they had to inhabit a whole planet, one where they are often found hosting prolific gladiator matches in the cities testing the young in Blooding Rituals. Nhon members are often known for being the most unashamed hunter, often just walking around without using their cloaking device to test the prey nearby, anyone who had the guts to challenge them would often find them on the floor with their helmets missing afterwards as a trophy, a Nhon trademark. The clan is much more than that, boasting many academic schools of teaching, some featuring; anatomy, psychology, philosophy, and of course the art of war and the act of hunting. While also having many sources of literature which is often looked down upon, however many elites and elders might want to chronicle their life for the young ones to find inspiration and drive to become the best yautja ever. The clan is much more of a society that was looked down upon for their vast knowledge in anything they could come to possess.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
The Nhon clan have expanded so much over the years they can come to inhabit a planet known as Jiralhos, this planet large enough to be habitable for many species for the Nhon clan to hunt and still live peacefully in their multiple cities spanning acrossing the globe. The cities have vast variety in each depending on the sect of Nhon you find yourself in, from marketplace, schools, temples, and coliseums the cities have a lot to offer for the Nhon members. Multiple sects are known for having their very own species preservation which consists of a vast ecosystem filled with multiple strong creatures to hunt and observe for the Nhon.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
The Nhon clan blooding ritual is a much tougher ordeal than is standard, due to high expectations the leaders have for every hunter, and the principles the clan tends to follow. In order to even attempt the ritual, an Unblooded must meet the following criteria:<br />
<br />
- A tie or greater in a spar versus a Blooded hunter.<br />
- A passing score on a mental aptitude test.<br />
- Has made active contributions to areas of learning or debate.<br />
- A vouch from a Blooded hunter (not the one they sparred with, however).<br />
<br />
Once an Unblooded has qualified for the Blooding Ritual, they are taken to a gladiatorial arena located on the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos. This is where they must pass two trials:<br />
<br />
The Trial of Prowess - Two human gladiators are released into the arena, the Unblooded’s objective is to defeat the two gladiators without killing them, if the gladiators land four hits (two each) on the Unblooded, the trial is failed. If the gladiators are killed, the trial is failed. The objective of this trial is to prove that the Unblooded has the precision, prowess, and restraint enough to accomplish victory without killing anything in an outnumbered battle.<br />
<br />
The Trial of Solidarity - Once the gladiators are defeated, a Tier Three R’ka (usually a Praetorian or a Ravager) is released into the arena. The Unblooded’s goal is to kill it, however after sixty seconds, Tier One R’ka will begin being released into the arena. The Unblooded MUST NOT kill any Tier One R’ka, their only goal is to kill the Tier Three and escape the arena with the body intact. This will become their first trophy and allow them to become a Blooded member of <br />
the Nhon clan.<br />
<br />
Failed Rituals<br />
<br />
In the Nhon clan, Unbloodeds who have failed the Blooding Ritual will be forced to work as a pseudo-slave for one of the busier Blooded members for five years. While it is a distinctly unpleasant experience, there have very rarely been hunters who failed again after enduring these gruelling years.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
The hunt is considered to be the Nhon Clans favorite activity.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
Leader Rhuu’Nhon’s Helmet Stash<br />
<br />
Amongst some of the Nhon hunters, there have been many rumblings about Rhuu’Nhon’s trophy collection. Many have seen Rhuu take helmets for trophies, but her trophy room contains none of them. In addition to this, there is an unmarked attached room by Rhuu’Nhon’s private quarters, that she does not let any hunters enter. This has all but confirmed, in the eyes of her clan members, that she keeps an entire private room exclusively for helmets she has collected, which they consider quite amusing.<br />
<br />
Nhon Artists<br />
<br />
Many of the creative Blooded clan members within the clan have taken up “art”, after one of the hunters brought back a human artbook, and the competitive blood within them sparked a desire to prove they are better “artists” than any human. The art faction is constantly growing, now having their own dedicated rooms and even beginning to map out their own hub.<br />
<br />
Statue of the Founder<br />
<br />
In the central hub of the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos , there is a statue that was built hollow, and the body of the founding member was placed inside. None of the hunters have found any records as to why this was done, but they do not deny that it makes them feel closer to the Founder. Some hunters believe that every few years his spirit returns to gaze upon the clan he built once more.<br />
<br />
Hot Blood<br />
<br />
Due to the constant self-improvement philosophy of the clan, many of the hunters within it possess extremely competitive personalities. The desire to prove they truly are the best is so prevalent that entire days have been spent bickering over things as minor as handwriting and effigy crafting.<br />
<br />
Other Clans<br />
<br />
The official status that the Nhons have towards other clans is, generally, “We’re smarter than you, and better hunters too!” However, when another clan demonstrates knowledge or prowess that is largely unknown to the Nhons, they will usually send emissaries or powerful hunters to try and gain the knowledge they’re missing out on. Truly incorrigible.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
(N/A)<br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
K’zar-Nhon<br />
<br />
K’zar-Nhon was the first and founding member of the Nhon clan, exiled from his birth clan for not being enough of a “hunter” in the clan’s eyes, he turned to creating his own clan of hunters to spread his way of hunting and living to others, in the hopes to one day create the perfect Yautja - both a scholar and a hunter.<br />

*'''Spetr - Do'Iash De'Rojok'''<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*An obscure but old Yautja Clan, the De’Rojok Clan, also known as the ‘Coroners’ or ‘Record Keepers’ is mostly dedicated to S’ahul and The Literary Art. Unlike other clans, the Coroners are often seen collecting pieces of literature from other alien races, such as humans. These are more or less discarded shortly after a full read but on some rare occasions may find their place in the clan’s Library as pieces of entertainment or an analogical look at humanity’s psychological or anatomical make-up. <br />
<br />
*The De’Rojok Clan’s warriors are known to use thrown weapons and often carry a combi-stick.<br />
<br />
*While all Yautja Hunters take trophies, a member of the Record Keepers also carries along a journal and an incredibly sharp but durable pen. Using the back of the pen, the Yautja draws some of its own blood and uses it to write down his kill, it’s habits, any defining features, the time to kill and finally, the killing blow. This serves to remind the hunter that every kill takes blood and sweat, and to ensure the Yautja betters himself with every kill. Writing in the book is not an immediate action following a kill, but it is recommended to note the details down as soon as possible<br />
<br />
*Writing a whole book is generally seen as a sign of great prestige and dedication, the book being quickly deposited in the clan’s library along with many others, in order to become lectures of youngbloods.<br />

====Clan Mei'ka, the Maidens.====<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''Unknownity - Shi'rei Mei'ka'''<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
* The Mei'ka clan is a clan once filled with tragedy and now reformed as the ashes of the remaining members rose up to take back what is theirs. It was once an average clan and now it is a clan dedicated to Dtekale and their faith is all around her. The clan is made out of females only who have found a different desire and purpose where they would be shunned or even killed by other clans if known about it. Their desire is all about the Hunt to succeed and show Dtekale their might and skills and strengthen their spirit.<br />
======Location:======<br />
* The clan’s home is located in the southern quadrant of ████ Prime where religion isn’t as completely centralized thus other clans who live nearby do not mind how the Mei’ka clan portrays the Goddess Dtekale differently. Wherever the Mei'ka clan is, there will always be a temple nearby dedicated to Dtekale. The clan is currently expanding its hunting outposts and temples beyond the home planet.<br />
======Religion:======<br />
* The Mei’ka clan is highly religious only towards a specific deity which is the Goddess of women and birth, Dtekale. The Goddess is portrayed differently by the clan, having a larger emphasis on women. The widows questioned why there is a god for women but not for men. They believe only certain females could become hunters. They believe the raw strength and strive for the hunt which isn’t common for females was a sign that they had Dtekale’s spirit within them. Their conclusion about why most females didn’t have the Goddess’ spirit was due to them becoming child makers and mates as it made them weak and lose their strive to hunt and rather stay at home. Not having the spirit of the Goddess was a sign of weakness for them and they would do anything to keep the spirit inside them or else they would lose their respect for their fellow sisters and be kicked out of the clan or be transferred to the working caste or turned into a serf.<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
* The Blooding rite for the Mei’ka clan is very demanding and difficult for most female Yautja as it revolves around the strive and desire to hunt which most females do not have. For one to complete their Blooding rite, they have proven themselves to bear the spirit of Dtekale. If they were to fail the rite, the un-blooded would receive harsh punishments in return, they were then taken to the clan’s Shaman for them to attempt to wake their spirit of Dtekale. If they failed the rite a second time, then they had no place in the clan’s finest and were given labor roles and remain unblooded for their life, that is if they lived.<br />
* The Mei’ka blooding rite has 3 main principles:<br />
# The rite must be considered already challenging to male hunters<br />
# The main objective is to secure a trophy of the prey you were given to hunt<br />
# You are required to be stripped of everything but a single spear and loincloths to achieve the same experience as Dtekale had during her age of being inside a mortal body<br />
======Reputation:======<br />
* The Mei’ka clan has an interesting reputation among other clans who know them, especially those who knew the Mei’ka clan before its revision. Due to the infamous disappearance of all the males in the clan, other clans believe they had to be involved with the disappearance as how could all the males disappear without a trace? Due to that, those who knew about the old Mei’ka clan, do not trust the current one and avoid them with their best effort. Because of the Mei’ka clan rejecting the traditional purpose of a female Yautja, they are generally disliked by traditionalists. Mei’ka views females of other clans as weak unless they are a part of the warrior caste and have no mate. Due to their stance about having a mate and becoming a child-maker, other clans have started calling them the Maidens.<br />
======History:======<br />
* Founded by Bokahn Mei’ka, the clan was originally just like any other clan as they had the same practices and standards. The clan had a special event that occurred once every four years and lasted two months where all the males in the clan went away to partake in a large hunting party and returned with a large feast to share with the females. Even the males in the working caste joined the event to help the warriors in particular activities where they couldn’t do it on their own. However one fateful event, they never returned. Their ship went missing and it couldn’t be tracked, the same goes for the gear the males had. They all disappeared without a trace and many conspiracies were formed by other clans who knew the Mei’ka clan. Some conspiracies talked about how the females sabotaged the ship and the gear to disable their tracking systems and sent the ship far into the unknown where it could never be found, some conspiracies simply say that the ship was sucked into a black hole or was completely disintegrated by unknown means. What was known is that they are all gone and will never come back. The remaining females in the clan were now called the widows by other clans and subsequently, the clan itself was called the widow clan. Instead of dissolving the clan, they decided to change it completely to the point of it being entirely different. They believed to be lucky to survive the extinction of their old clan, they believed Dtekale protected them and thus centered the clan around her and about women. The incident is now a reminder and curse to them, to never allow males into the clan or else they would suffer the same fate, not because they hated males or thought they were superior to them. The new founder Kay’ta Mei’ka returned the clan from its ashes and became a sanctuary for females who rejected their purpose to bear pups and have mates and rather focused on The Hunt. Currently, nobody still knows what happened to the males and the truth will never come to light.<br />

<hr><br />
=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''Snakebitten - Ikthya-de Ka'uliik'''<br />
*aguia vermelha - Shaq'Klahoo<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
A ship-based clan of gluttons and seasoned killers, the Ka'uliik are sustenance hunters. A burgeoning clan with a population still rising to this day, the Ka’uliik are more focused on sustaining their clan than glory alone. Strong in their reverence to Tharda and Paya alike, these carnivores have become passionate gourmands with a bottomless stomach.<br />
======History:======<br />
The Ka’uliik’s origins start from a single Yautja: Zu-G’ki’ke. One of noble birth born thousands of years ago, he was destined for greatness. By all accounts, he was an absolute powerhouse of a Yautja. An incredible stature, dreadlocks down to his hips, and strength enough to lift lesser Yautja with a single hand; let alone puncture clan armor with only his thumb claws. His success as a Hunter led to his success as a mate, fathering thousands of children. He led his harem, his progeny, and those that would follow him to his ideal of a promised land; a lush world teeming with thrillingly dangerous life. They hngs haad become a new clan; the Ka’uliik, with Zu-G’ki’ke as their ancestral Clan Leader. However, thid taken a turn for the worse. Even after their leader’s passing at four thousand years old, his newfound Clan was rapidly exploding in population, and this overgrowth meant a demand for food. Within thousands of years, the Ka’uliik’s skilled Hunters had picked clean nearly all edible prey on their homeworld, and there was scarce left to eat. Zu-G’ki’ke’s grandchild, Clan Leader at the time, diverted their resources and metalworking to the creation of a single ship to perform their exodus. Though they were at quite an old age when the vessel was completed, the deed was done. This had become the ship Agaj’ya, and forever would the Ka’uliik travel nomadically from place to place, Hunters by obligation.<br />
======Clan Structure======<br />
The Ka’uliik have their residence in a particularly massive ship. Shaking the trend of other clans to live in a variety of vessels, their homeship Agaj’ya is very densely populated, one of the largest and most well-inhabited vessels known to Yautjakind, and still being expanded to this day. Living conditions are rather difficult due to the sheer amount of mouths to feed, and living space is often cramped. They are known to be less wealthy than others, resources being shared among a collective whole. They are tightly-knit community, residents all doing their part to help the clan succeed. This has given their clan an egalitarian mindset out of necessity; age and sex are much less of a barrier than other clans, barring diseases and deformities, anyone can and should hunt. All occupations are of equal value and importance, and anyone from ferocious Hunters to the workers that forge their weapons are focused on ensuring their siblings thrive despite scarcity<br />
======Religion:======<br />
The Ka’uliik observe their deadly duo, Tharda and Paya, with great reverence. Their lifestyle focuses around appeasing their Gods, ritually imbibing near-every part of their prey on their behalf. Nothing is wasted and every part is used, in accordance with their belief that their Gods have given their clan the ability to absorb the strength from their prey upon consuming them, and sharing their quarry amongst the Clan strengthens it as a whole. <br />
After killing their prey, it is field dressed. During the process, a Hunter will call upon Paya and Tharde to observe their work, and to dedicate the prey’s body parts to them. Every possible cut of meat, skins, furs, and scales are all taken. Blood is drunk or otherwise used for rituals, and bones are ground down to bone meal. Sinews, fat and organs all have their use as well.<br />
A small portion of the prey may be consumed by the Hunter themselves, to strengthen them for what is to come, and to ensure they do not go hungry while there’s work to be done. However, the bulk of the quarry’s ‘byproducts’ are returned to their ship and packed away. The theft of food or even a stolen jawbone is the fastest way to draw the Ka’uliik’s ire.<br />
======Behavior======<br />
While all members of the clan naturally have their own way of going about hunting game, there is often some division between older or younger members. '''This ain’t mandatory, just flavor, do what you like.'''<br />
<br />
Older members of the clan, typically at the least Elites, are more cool-headed and go about their killing in a ‘sportier’ manner. They are likely to make a game of tracking down their quarry, and might even announce to their chosen mark that they are coming. Whips are commonly seen in their hands, used to torture prey and ensure that more of the corpse can be used. They are typically of a more refined palate given the wide range of food they’ve eaten and cooked, and have specific sorts of prey they hunt; claiming them to be of utmost flavor. They are also known to rarely use their cloaking devices, preferring to chase down their prey and frighten them to ‘get the juices flowing.’<br />
<br />
Younger members of the clan, inexperienced as they may be, vibrate with bloodlust and reek of aggression. They hunt as animals do, typically using their wristblades to get up close and personal. Having a burning hunger, an overall higher amount of energy available to them, and a less experienced palate means that younger Blooded tend to eat with little preference towards or against certain meals. The younger members also typically go without their cloaking devices, appreciating the value of a good chase.<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
The Blooding ritual is, of course, meant to prepare up and coming hunters for the real deal. After completing their training in the operation of their (limited) weapons, bioscans are used to locate a world with dangerous prey. A ship full of twelve to forty Unblooded and a single experienced older hunter are sent out, the engine forcibly disabled for a year; stranding the would be Hunters on their new grounds. In most cases, at least one of the tireless sprats will die. In very rare cases, the ship will never return; the world being earmarked as a place of interest. However, the ritual does not see its end once the vessel returns. Each hunter is expected to bring back triple their weight in fresh kill, and furthermore expected to prepare and host a feast for their homeship. The killed prey is taken with the would-be Blooded, and butchered directly in front of the high-ranks judging them. This is to ensure the trainees are not wasting even a single part of the kill, and incorporating as much as they possibly can into the meal. Once eaten and approved of, this ceremonial banquet concludes their training.<br />
======Reputation:======<br />
The Ka'uliik are regarded in many lights. Some clans think of them as heretics, shirking other Gods in favor of the myths of their two-deity pantheon. A few clans might outright refuse to hunt alongside them. Others might fixate on their ‘primitive’ ways, boasting the way their own clan doesn’t need to hunt for something as basic as food. They’re viewed in many circles as the most ‘classical’ of Yautja hunters, though some might admire their dedication. Many clans know the Ka’uliik simply for the meals they make, their culinary skill at arranging human flesh in just the right combination of flavors becoming widespread.<br />

WORK-IN-PROGRESS<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
====Early History:====<br />
<br />
For an eon the clans roamed the lush continents of their homeworld as nomads, trailing the herds of their various prey. Encounters between tribes were rare, and often aggressive or violent. The clans rarely stayed long in any fixed location, as the seasons turned so did their prey migrate around the globe.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
Their infrequent meetings, and it’s accompanying aggression, severely inhibited their technological advancement. Even after a hundred thousand years following this lifestyle the Yautja ancestry continued in this fashion, following the food across continents. Speech was well developed, but extremely narrow. Each clan had their own dialect and few could communicate with other tribes.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
The ages passed and the clans continued in their primitive state, chasing the twin suns as they hunted. Many millennia onwards and their way of life was thrust into a race for survival. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
A large asteroid of unknown origin smashed into their world and tore it’s continents from their bedrock. The entire planet rapidly heated and became a baked desert world, it’s environment now hostile to most forms of large life, many perished in a short period of time, whole clans were wiped out and the majority of the fauna the Yautja depended on to feed were decimated. Faced with cooperation or death, the survivors gradually grouped together to honor the fallen and to endure the disaster.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the landscape permanently disfigured, barren and strewn with the remains of countless lives the Yautja were forced to advance rapidly or face extinction. The remaining clans came together and pooled all their knowledge, resources and skills and elected a body of the wisest Yautja in hope of guidance to a return to their former strength. This guiding entity would later become the Council of Ancients.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Reformation:====<br />
<br />
For centuries after the disaster that befell their world the clans struggled to survive, but the Council of Ancients was the light in the darkness that had enveloped the landscape.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Strict disciplinary action on what, where and when the clans could hunt was the first edict set in stone. For if what little of the food supply that remained were to be hunted into extinction, then the entirety of the race would face annihilation. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Prior to the disaster, the clans had a loose system of religious beliefs that varied mightily. Some clans held animilistic beliefs, others held the belief that the two orbs in the sky were gods, some had no beliefs at all. The Council of Ancients, seeking to centralize the clans, saw the benefit in an organized religious system, one to which could help to drive the clans forward and out of the wastes of their battered homeworld. They were quick to seek out the wisest of the surviving Seers and Shamans and quicker still to set them to work on centralizing the myriad of religious systems into one. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Nytara and N’ithya, old names for the two stars in the sky, were adopted as the father and mother pairing who travelled the universe looking to create their offspring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon reaching what would become the homeworld of the clans, Nytara and N’ithya found Ger’Cetanun, a great titan made up of rock that rested upon the planet. Tired and battered from their journey, the two gods wished to rest but Ger’Cetanun would not allow it and demanded the interlopers move along. Facing exhaustion if they continued on without pause, Nytara and N’ithya fought the titan until they defeated it, crushing its inflexible, jagged body into rubble. In the brief span before his demise Ger’Cetanun swore he would return and seek vengeance. His proclamation made, Ger’Cetanun shattered into millions of pieces with his remains settling to become the planetary ring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Having dispersed Ger’Cetanun across the skies Nytara and N’ithya dwelled heavily on his warnings of vengeance. Knowing deep within themselves he would one day return to take his revenge, the gods decided to create the perfect warriors born of their blood. Beings that could one day stand against Ger’Cetanun and vanquish him for eternity. Drawing upon the spilt blood of Nytara pooled in the skies, N’ithya sent it falling to the planetary surface, swirling around as they fell the pools of blood split and scattered into a thousand droplets which rained down on the world. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon striking the surface each droplet crystalised in the ground leaving intricate patterns in their wake, owing to the creationary nature of Nytara’s blood and the blessings of N’ithya, these patterns would later begin to replicate in the surrounding environment and later still would become the sigils of each clan. Everywhere the blood struck life blossomed, jungles sprouted and plains grew, over the course of 3 years Nytara and N’ithya nurtured the world into a landscape of immense dangers and strength. The gods poured their energies into the planet and vastly accelerated the development of it’s flora and fauna until they deemed it ready for their offspring.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Cetanu Crisis:====<br />
<br />
In the depths of empty space a dark seed began to stir. Left by Ger’Ceteanun long ago this seed would grow to become his vengeance, his legacy of destruction and suffering. Cetanu, the black death.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Like his father before him Cetanu was a Titan. Owing to the deep connection Ger’Cetanun had with Cetanu while he was developing lightyears away, Cetanu imbibed many of the strengths and traits N’ithya and Nytara presented in their battle with his father. This adaptation would give Cetanu an edge Ger’Cetanun was greatly missing and make his resurgence all the more devastating. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
From the dark shadows of the stellar void Cetanu observed the planet his father had resided upon and saw that the two gods had created a formidable race of warriors in their image. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Over the ages, Cetanu prepared himself for battle with the interloper race to which had laid claim to the homeworld of his father. Once the time was right, Cetanu fulfilled his destiny and unleashed himself onto the homeworld of the trespassers, destroying the majority of the planet and the warrior race to which staked their claim. Cetanu could not fully fulfill his destiny though. The warrior race turned out to be much stronger than he had anticipated. They crawled up from the fires of extinction and vowed to eliminate Cetanu. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the clans re-established themselves, and their religion became more organized, Cetanu was eventually adopted into the pantheon as the embodiment of death, and the ultimate warrior to which the hunters would strive to defeat in battle. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the ages passed the hunters and their faith developed, the pantheon grew larger. Gods and goddesses symbolizing various real world aspects were added to the Pantheon.<br />
<br />
<br />
====The separation of the castes:====<br />
<br />
To further centralize their burgeoning civilization, the Council of Ancients decreed that a focus needed to be placed on the rapid development of technology and industry. The families to which had their skills centered around the trades, arts, and sciences were conscripted and let loose to conduct their work, under the leadership of the warrior caste - who had always led the clans. Due to their vital work, the council of ancients made it law that the offspring of all members of the trade caste would be educated in the ways of their elders, to ensure that there would be a continuity of knowledge and that no momentum would be lost. <br />
<br />
<br />
====Advancement:====<br />
<br />
The process of moving forward wasn’t without it’s cost. The planet did not properly begin to cool and stabilize for many millennia, making the simplest tasks difficult and treacherous at the best of times. Brute strength, perseverance, and a refusal to see their honor tarnished through failure, allowed the clans to keep moving forward.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
During the Ikthala Reformation, the hunters saw their creation by the twin gods as an act of creating the perfect race. This dogma began to propagate throughout their society, it’s roots being in their survival after the arrival of Cetanu. It was believed that the gods had blessed them with their perfect forms, and surviving Cetanu had reinforced this belief of divine heritage.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Elements of proclamations made just after Centanu’s arrival remained. The hunters were kept in check via strict discipline within their clans, a remnant of when order was key for survival. Unruly, treacherous, and unhinged members were remanded and punished harshly, sometimes via exile but often through capital punishment. At times there were such egregious acts committed that the stain of imperfection from the act sunk deep into the guilty hunters clan. In cases like these the clan was exterminated to prevent the act from recurring and from the dishonor spreading. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Within the stabilization period there was a quick advancement in technology. The clans saw remarkable scientific breakthroughs over the next 10 millenia. Dirt and rubble evolved into brick and mortar, bronze and tin into iron and then steel, and so on. From industrial, to atomic, to digital, the hunters were an intelligent species that, once given proper direction, could perform remarkable feats. As they progressed, the clans began to view their technological prowess as an extension to their divine strength. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As their technological level progressed, so did their society. The strict decrees set forth by the Council of Ancients evolved into an overarching set of laws that began to govern all facets of society. The issue of union, the value of work and trade, how hunts were properly performed all fell under this new code of honor. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Soon enough the hunters had reached the age of space flight. They were able to explore the other planets in their system and see for themselves the entirety of their cradle. As the hunters began to explore the other worlds in their system they discovered the next planet out from theirs was rife with life. The hunters were not alone in the universe.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the fauna on their planet still limited, the clans began visiting their neighboring world and hunting the local alien species, both for sustenance and as a source for honing their skills. As the millenia passed the clans were able to explore further and further, eventually reaching the point where they were able to touch other stars. Upon setting foot on planets underneath other stars, the hunters began to see the universe as being theirs by divine right, bestowed onto them by their creators. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Although long ago, the damage to their homeworld was near irreparable. This drove the clans to begin seeking out territory elsewhere. While countless clans continued to reside on the homeworld, many created large vessels and set forth into the stars, returning to their nomadic roots and roaming the stars, calling no place but their vessel home. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the hunters touched other star systems, they came into contact with other sentient life. Most of the species they encountered were in much lower technological states than them, and were incapable of warding off the hunters however, most had individuals or groups that were able to provide ample sport or fodder to the burgeoning clans. Worthy specimens were seized from their homeworlds and planted onto reserves so as not to disrupt the natural ecosystems and destroy the future of the stock, for the hunters had learned how valuable ecological and biological balance is.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
After asserting their strength across the near galaxy the Hunter Clans settled into a lethargic routine. Periodically hunting the many worlds within their expansive domain, they did nothing in a hurry as their lives grew long and their hunts became leisure and pride over necessity. This state is how they have existed for over a thousand years, and how they will continue for a thousand more.<br />
<br />
== Biology ==<br />
The hunters are an endothermic bipedal reptilian species. They have limited sexual dimorphism and both genders mature at similar rates and to similar builds. The species grows to be between 6 and 8 feet, and an average mature individual rounds out at around 500lbs. <br />
<br />
<br />
The species can live upwards of 2,000 years, though there are accounts of members of the species living 2,500 or more. Members of the species live very arduous and brutal lives, and incur great amounts of physical damage through their lifetimes. This fact sees many individuals dying ‘early’ with the average life expectancy of the species therefore around 800-1,000 years.<br />
<br />
<br />
Females are the birthing gender in the species. Hunters have a very long gestation period, lasting around 3 years. Infants ‘pups’ are born live, though encased in a hard embryonic sac. The struggle to breakfree from the sac is a difficult process, but it assists pups in quickly developing their muscles. Not all pups are able to break free from their sacs, and it is common within the darwinian culture of the hunters to allow for those pups to die - as these are seen as imperfect offspring and were not meant for life. Pups who are successfully reared reach puberty at around 100 years, with maturity occuring at the 200 year mark <br />
<br />
<br />
The hunters are a carnivorous species, their diet consisting of protein and lipid rich meats. They are incapable of processing carbohydrates, their livers being unable to break them down. This evolutionary dependence on meat has resulted in the species not having established any crop growing agriculture systems. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have very large hearts, and a strong cardiovascular system that has allowed for their large growth. Subsequently, this has resulted in the hunters generating great amounts of body heat. This heat is regulated via a set of tentacles, akin to dreadlocks, that extend from the back and side of their skulls. These dreadlocks shed waste heat from the body and continue to grow until death. The removal of one's dreadlocks is a death sentence, as soon after their bodies will cook their own organs until death. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have 4 mandibles that protrude from the front of their face that surround the entrance to their mouth. These mandibles are tightly pressed to the entrance to their mouth, making the process of opening their mouth somewhat difficult. This has resulted in the species developing a language centered around the use of clicks and rattles to which they form with the use of their mandibles. There are a number of sensory organs lining each mandible which are able to pick up small changes in air pressure and detect aromas in the air.<br />
<br />
<br />
The species sight is in the infrared spectrum, allowing them all weather, all day vision. Their eyes are protected by several membrane layers that protect against the environment and soft debris. <br />
<br />
<br />
Phenomenal strength is a hallmark of the species with the average mature individual able to jump three times their height, and easily capable of ripping flesh from bone and in some cases directly parting bones from bodies regardless of the flesh attached. Due to minimal sexual dimorphism in the species, males and females gain the same amount of muscle mass and grow to near identical sizes. <br />
<br />
<br />
Their bodies are incredibly resilient, being able to endure significant damage before critical failures begin to occur. The majority of their skeletal structure is made up of a weaved network of bone and cartilage that helps to protect and cushion against blunt force trauma.<br />
<br />
<br />
Thick quills grow over time on the face, back and chest of the species. These quills act as a defence mechanism, but also as a sign of maturity and one's position within society. Quills begin growing shortly after a pup breaks free of it’s sac, and they appear black and are pliable, but turn grey and brittle in old age. As a Hunter grows it will lose many quills throughout its lifetime, and while they do grow back with time, each new set is less durable than the one that came before it.<br />

=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*For as long as Hunters have traveled the stars, there has always been a lingering concern: what happens when equipment falls into the wrong hands? One solution was the self-destruct mechanism within every Blooded’s wrist-bracer. However, there was still a further problem should a Hunter be incapacitated or killed before the Self-destruct mechanism is triggered. In most situations, the fallen’s clan would be responsible for retrieval/destruction of the lost gear or bodies. However, in the event of a tomb being desecrated or a similar situation that requires discretion, a specialist is an option. Clan Luar’Ke is an otherwise average clan on the surface, to discourage interlopers or those who would interfere in their duties. Most Blooded members of Clan Luar’Ke are trained heavily in infiltration and achieving their objectives with minimal footprint through Ikthya-de Chiva, the Umbra Trials.<br />
*In the event their services are required, a seeker is notified by a Clan Luar’ke intermediary and through the proper channels is provided the circumstances and details surrounding the missing gear/body: last known location of the items in question, possible events surrounding the lost items, and potential obstacles that would be in the seeker’s path. The seeker is not informed to which clan has made contact, or which clan the missing gear belongs to. The only relevant information is anything that assists the seeker in accomplishing their objective. The seeker is then sent in either solo or in a very small team to resolve the situation. The seeker or seeker team typically has compartmentalized objectives to accomplish:<br />
# Locate and retrieve/destroy all lost pieces of equipment as well as Hunter corpses if applicable.<br />
# If any research or data has been accomplished involving Hunter biology or equipment, destroy or render said data/research useless.<br />
# Leave no/minimal evidence of Hunter involvement.<br />
# Keep damage to structures and environments to a minimum unless necessary for success of objectives 1 through 3.<br />
*Upon success of gear and body retrieval or destruction, the seeker or seeker team notifies the intermediary who then arranges a delivery of the missing equipment, or informs the clan of the resolution. The seekers of Clan Luar’Ke are never to know which clan they assisted, nor will the clan involved ever know who assisted them. There is no room for glory or validation in such a crucial task, Clan Luar’Ke will do it because it must be done.<br />

====Clan Bo'ytill, the Heathens.====<br />
<hr><br />

*<span style="background:green">Novacti - Stry-kther Bo'ytill</span><br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
*The clan of the Bo’ytill’s was made up by different sects, each following their own style of life. These different styles of life made the clan interesting, however, it was still a clan and the ruling elders and the clan leader ensured that tradition was followed. Tradition like the blooding ceremony, and the fact that the Bo’ytill clan was a clan of heathens. Oftentimes, those persecuted for their beliefs, or lack thereof would come to the Bo’ytill’s to take on their way of life.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
*The Bo’ytill clan was hidden in an eastern quadrant of Yautja prime, far secluded from the others, as they habilitated their own way of life in a more isolated section of the planet. They used this to their advantage, the isolation enabling the ability to practice their heathen culture without being associated as outcasts in the standard Yautja culture. They also used the isolation as a benefit enabling them to hunt, without worry of outer distractions. But as we all know, nothing can last forever, and hunts to far away planets would occur.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
*The process to attain the status of blooded in the Bo’ytill clan was gruesome. It was like other clan’s blooding rites, but if you failed three times, you were dragged to a stone pillar, clamped, and the younglings who were worthy of their own lives killed you. The spot over the years had been stained with the greenish blood of the Yautja deemed unworthy to live. If you managed to survive the blooding process, and attained the status of blooded, you were given the respect you deserved. Kar-ata had succeeded in his blooding on the first attempt, as most did. It was not an easy task, but the elders didn’t want to kill off their youth, and so they ensured that they were trained and taught well.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
*The isolation enjoyed by the Bo’ytill’s enabled them to hunt without worry about interference of other clans or outer impacts, yet over time, prey dwindled. The fact that they lived in a world that had been ravaged by Cetanu made things a tad difficult. With this in mind, the elders permitted hunts outside of Yautja prime, far away on planets such as LV-624 and Shiva’s Snowball. With new hunting grounds open to them, the Bo’ytill’s hunts grew gruesome. Their savagery was intense, and they fought like beasts. Honourable beasts! They claimed many trophies for their glory, and their feasts were always hearty. Maybe even as much as a hunter’s heart.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
*Respect and tradition. A large factor of the Bo’ytill clan was the respect. Your status earned you respect. Should you fail to respect them, the clan name, or the honor code, you were severely punished. Whippings were common for miscreants, and the loss of a mandible, or finger was not too rare either. In some cases, as a capital punishment, one would be chained to a coloumn and their dreadlocks removed. You followed the code and you listened to your elders, or you wouldn’t like the consequence, especially if important rules are breached. The working castes earned their pride through their crafts, yet the truly honorable were the hunters, those who could prove their worth and deserving of respect on the hunting grounds.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
As stated in the overview of the Bo’ytill clan, there were different sects, or branches of the clan. Listed below are some of these sects. They each have their own hierarchy, but it has no authority over those outside of its own, and the leaders inside are still subject to the rule of the clan elders.<br />
*One of these was the Thwei, a word which means “Blood” in the language of the Hunters. They were a group that was renowned for their bloodlust. It was they that had first come to the elders, seeking permission to extend their hunts deeper. With the request approved, Thwei was hunting on planets all around the galaxy.<br />
*Another of the sects was The Forgers of N'ithya D’lex. N’ithya being rock, or Earth, and D’lex being a strong crystalline material used for building. Both warriors and forgers belonged to this sect, the forgers themselves were often the primary workers, but warriors and blooded interested in crafting their own weapon often came to learn and make a blade suited for their own style of fighting. This sect was somewhat secluded inside the original stance of the Bo’ytill culture, for the reason that they respected the Goddess Dlex, in secret. Not worshipped, no, respected, acknowledged, but never worshipped.<br />
*The Bhu’ja Dekna. Those of the Bhu’ja Dekna tracked their prey and prepared. They always planned ahead. Moved for weeks on end, moving from target to target, trying to find one who was truly worthy of a fight. They carefully picked their target, stalked, and struck. Careful was their name, precision was their game. Their hunting skills were on par with the Thwei, but their style varied greatly. They were robust at all manners of tracking, and knew when the time was right to strike. But never did they dare breach the honor code, hunting a weakened target, or such, for they knew the dishonor would net them a heavy punishment by the elders.<br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
<br />
Matean-O, an elder of Na’Kuel, one very worshipping and praising of gods, seeking that everything he did pleased their gods. However, after multiple encounters, and failures to please these gods Matean-O, enraged, stricken and determined that the gods were false and his whole life was a lie, fled. He took his mate with him, and rallied any others that should follow, this of course enraged the elders, in which they ordered Matean-O to leave, driving him far to the Eastern Quadrant of Yautja Prime, the Bo’ytill’s new resting place for the years to come. Word was quick, as the clan was small. They adapted the name Bo’ytill’s, Bo’ytill standing for True-Seer, or Perfect sight, adopting this name, as Matean-O fully convinced the Bo’ytills that their decision and sight was correct, the gods were false, and they would make, and alter their destiny, not some false idols...<br />
<br />
Lokath’Dag looked to Matean-O and calmly said “Matean, you have come before us on, as you say, a matter of extreme urgency, tell us. What is the problem?”<br />
The elders looked expectantly at Matean-O, who began by saying, <br />
“Years. For so many years I worshipped the gods above all else. But do you know what came of that?”<br />
At this, the elders looked towards one another, then turned back to Matean-O. <br />
“Nothing! Those… those gods are nothing but children’s tales! Meant to keep us in line. They are nothing! I devoted everything to them, but I got nothing in return, not even acknowledgement!”<br />
“Where are you going with this, Matean-O?”<br />
“It’s over. These so-called ‘gods’ are not in any way real. Can’t you see that?”<br />
Lokath'Dag nodded to himself, then looked back and forth to the others. They nodded in unison. <br />
“Go.”<br />
“What?” Matean-O took a step back, startled. “You won’t even hear me out?”<br />
Lokath'Dag slowly stood up and walked over to Matean-O. <br />
“No Matean. You have disrespected our ways! You have brought shame on yourself, coming to us like this! You, of all people. I cannot believe what I am seeing.” Lokath took a step back and calmed himself down before saying.“Matean. I do not know what has gotten into you. Go home and think. Think about what you’re saying. Rest my friend.”<br />
<br />
That night Matean made up his mind. He went to his mate, and had them get ready to leave. After getting everything ready, Matean went to face the elders. For what he hoped would be the last time.<br />
“Matean, at this time of hour? Have you come to your senses?”<br />
“It is you who must come to your senses Lokath. You still don’t get it, do you? I must say I pity you.”<br />
“It is I who pity you Matean. You know that you are no longer welcome here. You must go. Far. Far east. And never return here. You are no longer welcome.” Lokath, sighed, before turning back and leaving the room.<br />
“I will miss you old friend.” Matean said, but alas, only the empty chamber heard it…<br />
<br />
Matean took his mate, and those who he had managed to convince, and fled, heading due east. To start a new life for himself. But not only for himself. He was going to start his own clan, one where you weren’t punished just because you didn’t worship idols. He named his clan “Bo’ytill” which means True-Seer, or Perfect Sight. For he had seen the truth. And he wanted to share it. He wanted to share it with everyone he could.<br />

====Clan Nhon====<br />
=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''<span style="background:green">MymindisBlank - Shou'Nhon</span>'''<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
The Nhon Clan is often regarded as one of the few remaining purely confident clans, often boasting so many young they had to inhabit a whole planet, one where they are often found hosting prolific gladiator matches in the cities testing the young in Blooding Rituals. Nhon members are often known for being the most unashamed hunter, often just walking around without using their cloaking device to test the prey nearby, anyone who had the guts to challenge them would often find them on the floor with their helmets missing afterwards as a trophy, a Nhon trademark. The clan is much more than that, boasting many academic schools of teaching, some featuring; anatomy, psychology, philosophy, and of course the art of war and the act of hunting. While also having many sources of literature which is often looked down upon, however many elites and elders might want to chronicle their life for the young ones to find inspiration and drive to become the best yautja ever. The clan is much more of a society that was looked down upon for their vast knowledge in anything they could come to possess.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
The Nhon clan have expanded so much over the years they can come to inhabit a planet known as Jiralhos, this planet large enough to be habitable for many species for the Nhon clan to hunt and still live peacefully in their multiple cities spanning acrossing the globe. The cities have vast variety in each depending on the sect of Nhon you find yourself in, from marketplace, schools, temples, and coliseums the cities have a lot to offer for the Nhon members. Multiple sects are known for having their very own species preservation which consists of a vast ecosystem filled with multiple strong creatures to hunt and observe for the Nhon.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
The Nhon clan blooding ritual is a much tougher ordeal than is standard, due to high expectations the leaders have for every hunter, and the principles the clan tends to follow. In order to even attempt the ritual, an Unblooded must meet the following criteria:<br />
<br />
- A tie or greater in a spar versus a Blooded hunter.<br />
- A passing score on a mental aptitude test.<br />
- Has made active contributions to areas of learning or debate.<br />
- A vouch from a Blooded hunter (not the one they sparred with, however).<br />
<br />
Once an Unblooded has qualified for the Blooding Ritual, they are taken to a gladiatorial arena located on the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos. This is where they must pass two trials:<br />
<br />
The Trial of Prowess - Two human gladiators are released into the arena, the Unblooded’s objective is to defeat the two gladiators without killing them, if the gladiators land four hits (two each) on the Unblooded, the trial is failed. If the gladiators are killed, the trial is failed. The objective of this trial is to prove that the Unblooded has the precision, prowess, and restraint enough to accomplish victory without killing anything in an outnumbered battle.<br />
<br />
The Trial of Solidarity - Once the gladiators are defeated, a Tier Three R’ka (usually a Praetorian or a Ravager) is released into the arena. The Unblooded’s goal is to kill it, however after sixty seconds, Tier One R’ka will begin being released into the arena. The Unblooded MUST NOT kill any Tier One R’ka, their only goal is to kill the Tier Three and escape the arena with the body intact. This will become their first trophy and allow them to become a Blooded member of <br />
the Nhon clan.<br />
<br />
Failed Rituals<br />
<br />
In the Nhon clan, Unbloodeds who have failed the Blooding Ritual will be forced to work as a pseudo-slave for one of the busier Blooded members for five years. While it is a distinctly unpleasant experience, there have very rarely been hunters who failed again after enduring these gruelling years.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
The hunt is considered to be the Nhon Clans favorite activity.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
Leader Rhuu’Nhon’s Helmet Stash<br />
<br />
Amongst some of the Nhon hunters, there have been many rumblings about Rhuu’Nhon’s trophy collection. Many have seen Rhuu take helmets for trophies, but her trophy room contains none of them. In addition to this, there is an unmarked attached room by Rhuu’Nhon’s private quarters, that she does not let any hunters enter. This has all but confirmed, in the eyes of her clan members, that she keeps an entire private room exclusively for helmets she has collected, which they consider quite amusing.<br />
<br />
Nhon Artists<br />
<br />
Many of the creative Blooded clan members within the clan have taken up “art”, after one of the hunters brought back a human artbook, and the competitive blood within them sparked a desire to prove they are better “artists” than any human. The art faction is constantly growing, now having their own dedicated rooms and even beginning to map out their own hub.<br />
<br />
Statue of the Founder<br />
<br />
In the central hub of the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos , there is a statue that was built hollow, and the body of the founding member was placed inside. None of the hunters have found any records as to why this was done, but they do not deny that it makes them feel closer to the Founder. Some hunters believe that every few years his spirit returns to gaze upon the clan he built once more.<br />
<br />
Hot Blood<br />
<br />
Due to the constant self-improvement philosophy of the clan, many of the hunters within it possess extremely competitive personalities. The desire to prove they truly are the best is so prevalent that entire days have been spent bickering over things as minor as handwriting and effigy crafting.<br />
<br />
Other Clans<br />
<br />
The official status that the Nhons have towards other clans is, generally, “We’re smarter than you, and better hunters too!” However, when another clan demonstrates knowledge or prowess that is largely unknown to the Nhons, they will usually send emissaries or powerful hunters to try and gain the knowledge they’re missing out on. Truly incorrigible.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
(N/A)<br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
K’zar-Nhon<br />
<br />
K’zar-Nhon was the first and founding member of the Nhon clan, exiled from his birth clan for not being enough of a “hunter” in the clan’s eyes, he turned to creating his own clan of hunters to spread his way of hunting and living to others, in the hopes to one day create the perfect Yautja - both a scholar and a hunter.<br />

=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''Spetr - Do'Iash De'Rojok'''<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*An obscure but old Yautja Clan, the De’Rojok Clan, also known as the ‘Coroners’ or ‘Record Keepers’ is mostly dedicated to S’ahul and The Literary Art. Unlike other clans, the Coroners are often seen collecting pieces of literature from other alien races, such as humans. These are more or less discarded shortly after a full read but on some rare occasions may find their place in the clan’s Library as pieces of entertainment or an analogical look at humanity’s psychological or anatomical make-up. <br />
<br />
*The De’Rojok Clan’s warriors are known to use thrown weapons and often carry a combi-stick.<br />
<br />
*While all Yautja Hunters take trophies, a member of the Record Keepers also carries along a journal and an incredibly sharp but durable pen. Using the back of the pen, the Yautja draws some of its own blood and uses it to write down his kill, it’s habits, any defining features, the time to kill and finally, the killing blow. This serves to remind the hunter that every kill takes blood and sweat, and to ensure the Yautja betters himself with every kill. Writing in the book is not an immediate action following a kill, but it is recommended to note the details down as soon as possible<br />
<br />
*Writing a whole book is generally seen as a sign of great prestige and dedication, the book being quickly deposited in the clan’s library along with many others, in order to become lectures of youngbloods.<br />

====Clan Mei'ka, the Maidens.====<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''Unknownity - Shi'rei Mei'ka'''<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
* The Mei'ka clan is a clan once filled with tragedy and now reformed as the ashes of the remaining members rose up to take back what is theirs. It was once an average clan and now it is a clan dedicated to Dtekale and their faith is all around her. The clan is made out of females only who have found a different desire and purpose where they would be shunned or even killed by other clans if known about it. Their desire is all about the Hunt to succeed and show Dtekale their might and skills and strengthen their spirit.<br />
======Location:======<br />
* The clan’s home is located in the southern quadrant of ████ Prime where religion isn’t as completely centralized thus other clans who live nearby do not mind how the Mei’ka clan portrays the Goddess Dtekale differently. Wherever the Mei'ka clan is, there will always be a temple nearby dedicated to Dtekale. The clan is currently expanding its hunting outposts and temples beyond the home planet.<br />
======Religion:======<br />
* The Mei’ka clan is highly religious only towards a specific deity which is the Goddess of women and birth, Dtekale. The Goddess is portrayed differently by the clan, having a larger emphasis on women. The widows questioned why there is a god for women but not for men. They believe only certain females could become hunters. They believe the raw strength and strive for the hunt which isn’t common for females was a sign that they had Dtekale’s spirit within them. Their conclusion about why most females didn’t have the Goddess’ spirit was due to them becoming child makers and mates as it made them weak and lose their strive to hunt and rather stay at home. Not having the spirit of the Goddess was a sign of weakness for them and they would do anything to keep the spirit inside them or else they would lose their respect for their fellow sisters and be kicked out of the clan or be transferred to the working caste or turned into a serf.<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
* The Blooding rite for the Mei’ka clan is very demanding and difficult for most female Yautja as it revolves around the strive and desire to hunt which most females do not have. For one to complete their Blooding rite, they have proven themselves to bear the spirit of Dtekale. If they were to fail the rite, the un-blooded would receive harsh punishments in return, they were then taken to the clan’s Shaman for them to attempt to wake their spirit of Dtekale. If they failed the rite a second time, then they had no place in the clan’s finest and were given labor roles and remain unblooded for their life, that is if they lived.<br />
* The Mei’ka blooding rite has 3 main principles:<br />
# The rite must be considered already challenging to male hunters<br />
# The main objective is to secure a trophy of the prey you were given to hunt<br />
# You are required to be stripped of everything but a single spear and loincloths to achieve the same experience as Dtekale had during her age of being inside a mortal body<br />
======Reputation:======<br />
* The Mei’ka clan has an interesting reputation among other clans who know them, especially those who knew the Mei’ka clan before its revision. Due to the infamous disappearance of all the males in the clan, other clans believe they had to be involved with the disappearance as how could all the males disappear without a trace? Due to that, those who knew about the old Mei’ka clan, do not trust the current one and avoid them with their best effort. Because of the Mei’ka clan rejecting the traditional purpose of a female Yautja, they are generally disliked by traditionalists. Mei’ka views females of other clans as weak unless they are a part of the warrior caste and have no mate. Due to their stance about having a mate and becoming a child-maker, other clans have started calling them the Maidens.<br />
======History:======<br />
* Founded by Bokahn Mei’ka, the clan was originally just like any other clan as they had the same practices and standards. The clan had a special event that occurred once every four years and lasted two months where all the males in the clan went away to partake in a large hunting party and returned with a large feast to share with the females. Even the males in the working caste joined the event to help the warriors in particular activities where they couldn’t do it on their own. However one fateful event, they never returned. Their ship went missing and it couldn’t be tracked, the same goes for the gear the males had. They all disappeared without a trace and many conspiracies were formed by other clans who knew the Mei’ka clan. Some conspiracies talked about how the females sabotaged the ship and the gear to disable their tracking systems and sent the ship far into the unknown where it could never be found, some conspiracies simply say that the ship was sucked into a black hole or was completely disintegrated by unknown means. What was known is that they are all gone and will never come back. The remaining females in the clan were now called the widows by other clans and subsequently, the clan itself was called the widow clan. Instead of dissolving the clan, they decided to change it completely to the point of it being entirely different. They believed to be lucky to survive the extinction of their old clan, they believed Dtekale protected them and thus centered the clan around her and about women. The incident is now a reminder and curse to them, to never allow males into the clan or else they would suffer the same fate, not because they hated males or thought they were superior to them. The new founder Kay’ta Mei’ka returned the clan from its ashes and became a sanctuary for females who rejected their purpose to bear pups and have mates and rather focused on The Hunt. Currently, nobody still knows what happened to the males and the truth will never come to light.<br />

=====Clan Members=====<br />
*'''Snakebitten - Ikthya-de Ka'uliik'''<br />
*aguia vermelha - Shaq'Klahoo<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
A ship-based clan of gluttons and seasoned killers, the Ka'uliik are sustenance hunters. A burgeoning clan with a population still rising to this day, the Ka’uliik are more focused on sustaining their clan than glory alone. Strong in their reverence to Tharda and Paya alike, these carnivores have become passionate gourmands with a bottomless stomach.<br />
======Clan Structure======<br />
The Ka’uliik have their residence in a particularly massive ship. Shaking the trend of other clans to live in a variety of vessels, their homeship Agaj’ya is very densely populated, one of the largest and most well-inhabited vessels known to Yautjakind, and still being expanded to this day. Living conditions are rather difficult due to the sheer amount of mouths to feed, and living space is often cramped. They are known to be less wealthy than others, resources being shared among a collective whole. They are tightly-knit community, residents all doing their part to help the clan succeed. This has given their clan an egalitarian mindset out aof necessity; age and sex are much less of a barrier than other clans, barring diseases and deformities, anyone can and should hunt. All occupations are of equal value and importance, and anyone from ferocious Hunters to the workers that forge their weapons are focused on ensuring their siblings thrive despite scarcity<br />
======Religion:======<br />
The Ka’uliik observe their deadly duo, Tharda and Paya, with great reverence. Their lifestyle focuses around appeasing their Gods, ritually imbibing near-every part of their prey on their behalf. Nothing is wasted and every part is used, in accordance with their belief that their Gods have given their clan the ability to absorb the strength from their prey upon consuming them, and sharing their quarry amongst the Clan strengthens it as a whole. <br />
After killing their prey, it is field dressed. During the process, a Hunter will call upon Paya and Tharde to observe their work, and to dedicate the prey’s body parts to them. Every possible cut of meat, skins, furs, and scales are all taken. Blood is drunk or otherwise used for rituals, and bones are ground down to bone meal. Sinews, fat and organs all have their use as well.<br />
A small portion of the prey may be consumed by the Hunter themselves, to strengthen them for what is to come, and to ensure they do not go hungry while there’s work to be done. However, the bulk of the quarry’s ‘byproducts’ are returned to their ship and packed away. The theft of food or even a stolen jawbone is the fastest way to draw the Ka’uliik’s ire.<br />
======Behavior======<br />
While all members of the clan naturally have their own way of going about hunting game, there is often some division between older or younger members. '''This ain’t mandatory, just flavor, do what you like.'''<br />
<br />
Older members of the clan, typically at the least Elites, are more cool-headed and go about their killing in a ‘sportier’ manner. They are likely to make a game of tracking down their quarry, and might even announce to their chosen mark that they are coming. Whips are commonly seen in their hands, used to torture prey and ensure that more of the corpse can be used. They are typically of a more refined palate given the wide range of food they’ve eaten and cooked, and have specific sorts of prey they hunt; claiming them to be of utmost flavor. They are also known to rarely use their cloaking devices, preferring to chase down their prey and frighten them to ‘get the juices flowing.’<br />
<br />
Younger members of the clan, inexperienced as they may be, vibrate with bloodlust and reek of aggression. They hunt as animals do, typically using their wristblades to get up close and personal. Having a burning hunger, an overall higher amount of energy available to them, and a less experienced palate means that younger Blooded tend to eat with little preference towards or against certain meals. The younger members also typically go without their cloaking devices, appreciating the value of a good chase.<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
The Blooding ritual is, of course, meant to prepare up and coming hunters for the real deal. After completing their training in the operation of their (limited) weapons, bioscans are used to locate a world with dangerous prey. A ship full of twelve to forty Unblooded and a single experienced older hunter are sent out, the engine forcibly disabled for a year; stranding the would be Hunters on their new grounds. In most cases, at least one of the tireless sprats will die. In very rare cases, the ship will never return; the world being earmarked as a place of interest. However, the ritual does not see its end once the vessel returns. Each hunter is expected to bring back triple their weight in fresh kill, and furthermore expected to prepare and host a feast for their homeship. The killed prey is taken with the would-be Blooded, and butchered directly in front of the high-ranks judging them. This is to ensure the trainees are not wasting even a single part of the kill, and incorporating as much as they possibly can into the meal. Once eaten and approved of, this ceremonial banquet concludes their training.<br />
======Reputation:======<br />
The Ka'uliik are regarded in many lights. Some clans think of them as heretics, shirking other Gods in favor of the myths of their two-deity pantheon. A few clans might outright refuse to hunt alongside them. Others might fixate on their ‘primitive’ ways, boasting the way their own clan doesn’t need to hunt for something as basic as food. They’re viewed in many circles as the most ‘classical’ of Yautja hunters, though some might admire their dedication. Many clans know the Ka’uliik simply for the meals they make, their culinary skill at arranging human flesh in just the right combination of flavors becoming widespread.<br />
======History:======<br />
The Ka’uliik’s origins start from a single Yautja: Zu-G’ki’ke. One of noble birth born thousands of years ago, he was destined for greatness. By all accounts, he was an absolute powerhouse of a Yautja. An incredible stature, dreadlocks down to his hips, and strength enough to lift lesser Yautja with a single hand; let alone puncture clan armor with only his thumb claws. His success as a Hunter led to his success as a mate, fathering thousands of children. He led his harem, his progeny, and those that would follow him to his ideal of a promised land; a lush world teeming with thrillingly dangerous life. They hngs haad become a new clan; the Ka’uliik, with Zu-G’ki’ke as their ancestral Clan Leader. However, thid taken a turn for the worse. Even after their leader’s passing at four thousand years old, his newfound Clan was rapidly exploding in population, and this overgrowth meant a demand for food. Within thousands of years, the Ka’uliik’s skilled Hunters had picked clean nearly all edible prey on their homeworld, and there was scarce left to eat. Zu-G’ki’ke’s grandchild, Clan Leader at the time, diverted their resources and metalworking to the creation of a single ship to perform their exodus. Though they were at quite an old age when the vessel was completed, the deed was done. This had become the ship Agaj’ya, and forever would the Ka’uliik travel nomadically from place to place, Hunters by obligation.<br />

"''Independently targeting particle beam phalanx. Vwap! Fry half a city with this puppy. We got tactical smart missiles, phased plasma pulse rifles, RPGs, we got sonic electronic ball breakers! We got nukes, we got knives, sharp sticks...'' "<br />
―Pvt. Hudson, ''Aliens''<br />
<br />
Some drops, you kick in the door and find out that the distress call was a false alarm. Other days you drop in and clear the problem and move on. Some drops, you gotta kill the whole damn planet. That's where you (the '''Specialist''') come in. Each squad is deployed with a single specialist trained in the use of a '''[[Marine Equipment#Specialist Weapons|squad support weapon]]'''. These range from the '''M42A Scoped Rifle''' to the devastating '''M5 RPG'''.<br />
<br />
<br />
==The Person with the Big Guns (Intro)==<br />
-----<br />
As the Squad's Specialist, you have '''access to a variety of heavier weapons''' than your squadmates, and are expected to understand when and when not to deploy them. Specialists are expected to not rely on their special gear but his or her greater understanding of tactics. Squad Specialists are generally promoted during boot camp from marines who show an aptitude for leadership and tactical skills. Like all marines, the specialist's weapon is treated like an extension of themselves and as such, specialists know their chosen firearm, inside and out.<br />
<br />
<br />
==Equipment==<br />
-----<br />
The Specialist has their own ready-room within their squad's larger bay. It contains a single locker and vendor. The locker contains the same gear as any other marine's, however the Weapons Vendor is specific to the Specialist; it will not work without proper access. Among the other supplies it vends is the ability to vend a single specialist kit of your choice. It also contains a webbing and pouches to carry more ammo and pocket-sized equipment on the move. '''Keep in mind you can only use the specialist kit you choose.'''<br />

It comes equipped with a high power scope allowing the user a wide range of vision. For drawbacks, this weapon is limited to fifteen rounds per magazine, a very obvious and loud firing noise, and the fact that it is wholly ineffective in close range combat as bullets fired too close to the user will miss.<br />
This is only available for '''Specialists''' using the '''Sniper Loadout'''.<br />

=====Demolitionist Loadout=====<br />
[[File:M5_RPG.png|64px]] [[File:Demolitionist.png]]<br />
<br />
This Loadout contains mines, and a devastating, reloadable, single shot rocket launcher known as the '''M5 RPG'''. This weapon carries the most powerful -and dangerous- ordnance available to marine infantry in the form of either high explosive, armor piercing or white phosphorus rockets. Where HE rockets are effective against tight groups of hostile targets, the AP rockets deal little actual splash damage but they deal immense damage to a single target. Whereas the WP rockets will ignite the tile it hits, turning that tile and the tiles surrounding into extremely hot areas that can kill quickly. Unlike the grenade launcher, M5 RPG ammo is more scarce, as well as the M5 RPG being more unwieldy to employ.<br />

This weapon carries the most powerful ordnance available to marine infantry in the form of either High Explosive, Armor Piercing, or White Phosphorus 84mm rockets. Operators should keep in mind that M5 RPG ammo is scarce, while the launcher itself can be unwieldy to deploy and take a few seconds to be ready to fire from a resting position. Operators should also keep in mind that the Almayer's M5 RPG model is reusable, but lacks an auto-tracking feature. <br> By default, the M5 RPG comes loaded with an HE rocket.<br>This is only available for '''Specialists''' using the '''Demolitionist Loadout'''.<br />

<div>= Hunters =<br />
WORK-IN-PROGRESS<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
====Early History:====<br />
<br />
For an eon the clans roamed the lush continents of their homeworld as nomads, trailing the herds of their various prey. Encounters between tribes were rare, and often aggressive or violent. The clans rarely stayed long in any fixed location, as the seasons turned so did their prey migrate around the globe.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
Their infrequent meetings, and it’s accompanying aggression, severely inhibited their technological advancement. Even after a hundred thousand years following this lifestyle the Yautja ancestry continued in this fashion, following the food across continents. Speech was well developed, but extremely narrow. Each clan had their own dialect and few could communicate with other tribes.<br />
<br/><br /><br />
The ages passed and the clans continued in their primitive state, chasing the twin suns as they hunted. Many millennia onwards and their way of life was thrust into a race for survival. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
A large asteroid of unknown origin smashed into their world and tore it’s continents from their bedrock. The entire planet rapidly heated and became a baked desert world, it’s environment now hostile to most forms of large life, many perished in a short period of time, whole clans were wiped out and the majority of the fauna the Yautja depended on to feed were decimated. Faced with cooperation or death, the survivors gradually grouped together to honor the fallen and to endure the disaster.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the landscape permanently disfigured, barren and strewn with the remains of countless lives the Yautja were forced to advance rapidly or face extinction. The remaining clans came together and pooled all their knowledge, resources and skills and elected a body of the wisest Yautja in hope of guidance to a return to their former strength. This guiding entity would later become the Council of Ancients.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Reformation:====<br />
<br />
For centuries after the disaster that befell their world the clans struggled to survive, but the Council of Ancients was the light in the darkness that had enveloped the landscape.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Strict disciplinary action on what, where and when the clans could hunt was the first edict set in stone. For if what little of the food supply that remained were to be hunted into extinction, then the entirety of the race would face annihilation. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Prior to the disaster, the clans had a loose system of religious beliefs that varied mightily. Some clans held animilistic beliefs, others held the belief that the two orbs in the sky were gods, some had no beliefs at all. The Council of Ancients, seeking to centralize the clans, saw the benefit in an organized religious system, one to which could help to drive the clans forward and out of the wastes of their battered homeworld. They were quick to seek out the wisest of the surviving Seers and Shamans and quicker still to set them to work on centralizing the myriad of religious systems into one. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Nytara and N’ithya, old names for the two stars in the sky, were adopted as the father and mother pairing who travelled the universe looking to create their offspring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon reaching what would become the homeworld of the clans, Nytara and N’ithya found Ger’Cetanun, a great titan made up of rock that rested upon the planet. Tired and battered from their journey, the two gods wished to rest but Ger’Cetanun would not allow it and demanded the interlopers move along. Facing exhaustion if they continued on without pause, Nytara and N’ithya fought the titan until they defeated it, crushing its inflexible, jagged body into rubble. In the brief span before his demise Ger’Cetanun swore he would return and seek vengeance. His proclamation made, Ger’Cetanun shattered into millions of pieces with his remains settling to become the planetary ring.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Having dispersed Ger’Cetanun across the skies Nytara and N’ithya dwelled heavily on his warnings of vengeance. Knowing deep within themselves he would one day return to take his revenge, the gods decided to create the perfect warriors born of their blood. Beings that could one day stand against Ger’Cetanun and vanquish him for eternity. Drawing upon the spilt blood of Nytara pooled in the skies, N’ithya sent it falling to the planetary surface, swirling around as they fell the pools of blood split and scattered into a thousand droplets which rained down on the world. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Upon striking the surface each droplet crystalised in the ground leaving intricate patterns in their wake, owing to the creationary nature of Nytara’s blood and the blessings of N’ithya, these patterns would later begin to replicate in the surrounding environment and later still would become the sigils of each clan. Everywhere the blood struck life blossomed, jungles sprouted and plains grew, over the course of 3 years Nytara and N’ithya nurtured the world into a landscape of immense dangers and strength. The gods poured their energies into the planet and vastly accelerated the development of it’s flora and fauna until they deemed it ready for their offspring.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
====Cetanu Crisis:====<br />
<br />
In the depths of empty space a dark seed began to stir. Left by Ger’Ceteanun long ago this seed would grow to become his vengeance, his legacy of destruction and suffering. Cetanu, the black death.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Like his father before him Cetanu was a Titan. Owing to the deep connection Ger’Cetanun had with Cetanu while he was developing lightyears away, Cetanu imbibed many of the strengths and traits N’ithya and Nytara presented in their battle with his father. This adaptation would give Cetanu an edge Ger’Cetanun was greatly missing and make his resurgence all the more devastating. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
From the dark shadows of the stellar void Cetanu observed the planet his father had resided upon and saw that the two gods had created a formidable race of warriors in their image. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Over the ages, Cetanu prepared himself for battle with the interloper race to which had laid claim to the homeworld of his father. Once the time was right, Cetanu fulfilled his destiny and unleashed himself onto the homeworld of the trespassers, destroying the majority of the planet and the warrior race to which staked their claim. Cetanu could not fully fulfill his destiny though. The warrior race turned out to be much stronger than he had anticipated. They crawled up from the fires of extinction and vowed to eliminate Cetanu. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the clans re-established themselves, and their religion became more organized, Cetanu was eventually adopted into the pantheon as the embodiment of death, and the ultimate warrior to which the hunters would strive to defeat in battle. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the ages passed the hunters and their faith developed, the pantheon grew larger. Gods and goddesses symbolizing various real world aspects were added to the Pantheon.<br />
<br />
<br />
====The separation of the castes:====<br />
<br />
To further centralize their burgeoning civilization, the Council of Ancients decreed that a focus needed to be placed on the rapid development of technology and industry. The families to which had their skills centered around the trades, arts, and sciences were conscripted and let loose to conduct their work, under the leadership of the warrior caste - who had always led the clans. Due to their vital work, the council of ancients made it law that the offspring of all members of the trade caste would be educated in the ways of their elders, to ensure that there would be a continuity of knowledge and that no momentum would be lost. <br />
<br />
<br />
====Advancement:====<br />
<br />
The process of moving forward wasn’t without it’s cost. The planet did not properly begin to cool and stabilize for many millennia, making the simplest tasks difficult and treacherous at the best of times. Brute strength, perseverance, and a refusal to see their honor tarnished through failure, allowed the clans to keep moving forward.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
During the Ikthala Reformation, the hunters saw their creation by the twin gods as an act of creating the perfect race. This dogma began to propagate throughout their society, it’s roots being in their survival after the arrival of Cetanu. It was believed that the gods had blessed them with their perfect forms, and surviving Cetanu had reinforced this belief of divine heritage.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Elements of proclamations made just after Centanu’s arrival remained. The hunters were kept in check via strict discipline within their clans, a remnant of when order was key for survival. Unruly, treacherous, and unhinged members were remanded and punished harshly, sometimes via exile but often through capital punishment. At times there were such egregious acts committed that the stain of imperfection from the act sunk deep into the guilty hunters clan. In cases like these the clan was exterminated to prevent the act from recurring and from the dishonor spreading. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Within the stabilization period there was a quick advancement in technology. The clans saw remarkable scientific breakthroughs over the next 10 millenia. Dirt and rubble evolved into brick and mortar, bronze and tin into iron and then steel, and so on. From industrial, to atomic, to digital, the hunters were an intelligent species that, once given proper direction, could perform remarkable feats. As they progressed, the clans began to view their technological prowess as an extension to their divine strength. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As their technological level progressed, so did their society. The strict decrees set forth by the Council of Ancients evolved into an overarching set of laws that began to govern all facets of society. The issue of union, the value of work and trade, how hunts were properly performed all fell under this new code of honor. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Soon enough the hunters had reached the age of space flight. They were able to explore the other planets in their system and see for themselves the entirety of their cradle. As the hunters began to explore the other worlds in their system they discovered the next planet out from theirs was rife with life. The hunters were not alone in the universe.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
With the fauna on their planet still limited, the clans began visiting their neighboring world and hunting the local alien species, both for sustenance and as a source for honing their skills. As the millenia passed the clans were able to explore further and further, eventually reaching the point where they were able to touch other stars. Upon setting foot on planets underneath other stars, the hunters began to see the universe as being theirs by divine right, bestowed onto them by their creators. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
Although long ago, the damage to their homeworld was near irreparable. This drove the clans to begin seeking out territory elsewhere. While countless clans continued to reside on the homeworld, many created large vessels and set forth into the stars, returning to their nomadic roots and roaming the stars, calling no place but their vessel home. <br />
<br /><br /><br />
As the hunters touched other star systems, they came into contact with other sentient life. Most of the species they encountered were in much lower technological states than them, and were incapable of warding off the hunters however, most had individuals or groups that were able to provide ample sport or fodder to the burgeoning clans. Worthy specimens were seized from their homeworlds and planted onto reserves so as not to disrupt the natural ecosystems and destroy the future of the stock, for the hunters had learned how valuable ecological and biological balance is.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
After asserting their strength across the near galaxy the Hunter Clans settled into a lethargic routine. Periodically hunting the many worlds within their expansive domain, they did nothing in a hurry as their lives grew long and their hunts became leisure and pride over necessity. This state is how they have existed for over a thousand years, and how they will continue for a thousand more.<br />
<br />
== Biology ==<br />
The hunters are an endothermic bipedal reptilian species. They have limited sexual dimorphism and both genders mature at similar rates and to similar builds. The species grows to be between 6 and 8 feet, and an average mature individual rounds out at around 500lbs. <br />
<br />
<br />
The species can live upwards of 2,000 years, though there are accounts of members of the species living 2,500 or more. Members of the species live very arduous and brutal lives, and incur great amounts of physical damage through their lifetimes. This fact sees many individuals dying ‘early’ with the average life expectancy of the species therefore around 800-1,000 years.<br />
<br />
<br />
Females are the birthing gender in the species. Hunters have a very long gestation period, lasting around 3 years. Infants ‘pups’ are born live, though encased in a hard embryonic sac. The struggle to breakfree from the sac is a difficult process, but it assists pups in quickly developing their muscles. Not all pups are able to break free from their sacs, and it is common within the darwinian culture of the hunters to allow for those pups to die - as these are seen as imperfect offspring and were not meant for life. Pups who are successfully reared reach puberty at around 100 years, with maturity occuring at the 200 year mark <br />
<br />
<br />
The hunters are a carnivorous species, their diet consisting of protein and lipid rich meats. They are incapable of processing carbohydrates, their livers being unable to break them down. This evolutionary dependence on meat has resulted in the species not having established any crop growing agriculture systems. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have very large hearts, and a strong cardiovascular system that has allowed for their large growth. Subsequently, this has resulted in the hunters generating great amounts of body heat. This heat is regulated via a set of tentacles, akin to dreadlocks, that extend from the back and side of their skulls. These dreadlocks shed waste heat from the body and continue to grow until death. The removal of one's dreadlocks is a death sentence, as soon after their bodies will cook their own organs until death. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hunters have 4 mandibles that protrude from the front of their face that surround the entrance to their mouth. These mandibles are tightly pressed to the entrance to their mouth, making the process of opening their mouth somewhat difficult. This has resulted in the species developing a language centered around the use of clicks and rattles to which they form with the use of their mandibles. There are a number of sensory organs lining each mandible which are able to pick up small changes in air pressure and detect aromas in the air.<br />
<br />
<br />
The species sight is in the infrared spectrum, allowing them all weather, all day vision. Their eyes are protected by several membrane layers that protect against the environment and soft debris. <br />
<br />
<br />
Phenomenal strength is a hallmark of the species with the average mature individual able to jump three times their height, and easily capable of ripping flesh from bone and in some cases directly parting bones from bodies regardless of the flesh attached. Due to minimal sexual dimorphism in the species, males and females gain the same amount of muscle mass and grow to near identical sizes. <br />
<br />
<br />
Their bodies are incredibly resilient, being able to endure significant damage before critical failures begin to occur. The majority of their skeletal structure is made up of a weaved network of bone and cartilage that helps to protect and cushion against blunt force trauma.<br />
<br />
<br />
Thick quills grow over time on the face, back and chest of the species. These quills act as a defence mechanism, but also as a sign of maturity and one's position within society. Quills begin growing shortly after a pup breaks free of it’s sac, and they appear black and are pliable, but turn grey and brittle in old age. As a Hunter grows it will lose many quills throughout its lifetime, and while they do grow back with time, each new set is less durable than the one that came before it.<br />

<tab name="Council of Ancients"><br />
*'''My word is law, my will divine.'''<br />
*Ancients make up the ruling body of Hunter society known as the Council of Ancients. Ancients are incredibly old and wise Clan Leaders who have been chosen to sit on the council by its current members. An ancients word is law and is something that is never ignored. To ignore the will of an ancient is to bring death and dishonor on you and your clan.<br />

<tab name="Clan Leaders"><br />
*'''I am your future, he who will decide your fate.'''<br />
*Clan Leaders are the highest authority in Hunter society aside from the Council of Ancients. Clan leaders oversee all aspects of their clans, and have complete authority over each member of the clan. Clan Leaders have participated in countless hunts, killed many rivals, and gained a lifetime of honor and prestige. Clan Leaders hold their position until dying in combat. Clan Leaders can go on to become sitting members on the council of Ancients.<br />

<tab name="Clan Elders"><br />
*'''Through strength I endure, through endurance I age. With age I grow wise, with wisdom I rise.'''<br />
*The oldest, wisest and strongest of all Hunters within a specific clan.<br />
*Elders are highly respected and honoured Hunters who act as teachers for young bloods and the unblooded. They are older Hunters who have made a name for themselves by becoming masters of specific skills. They will often lead hunting expeditions, and have near sole authority in choosing which members of the clan participate. Elders will vy to become Clan Leaders once their current Clan leader perishes.<br />

=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*For as long as Hunters have traveled the stars, there has always been a lingering concern: what happens when equipment falls into the wrong hands? One solution was the self-destruct mechanism within every Blooded’s wrist-bracer. However, there was still a further problem should a Hunter be incapacitated or killed before the Self-destruct mechanism is triggered. In most situations, the fallen’s clan would be responsible for retrieval/destruction of the lost gear or bodies. However, in the event of a tomb being desecrated or a similar situation that requires discretion, a specialist is an option. Clan Luar’Ke is an otherwise average clan on the surface, to discourage interlopers or those who would interfere in their duties. Most Blooded members of Clan Luar’Ke are trained heavily in infiltration and achieving their objectives with minimal footprint through Ikthya-de Chiva, the Umbra Trials.<br />
*In the event their services are required, a seeker is notified by a Clan Luar’ke intermediary and through the proper channels is provided the circumstances and details surrounding the missing gear/body: last known location of the items in question, possible events surrounding the lost items, and potential obstacles that would be in the seeker’s path. The seeker is not informed to which clan has made contact, or which clan the missing gear belongs to. The only relevant information is anything that assists the seeker in accomplishing their objective. The seeker is then sent in either solo or in a very small team to resolve the situation. The seeker or seeker team typically has compartmentalized objectives to accomplish:<br />
# Locate and retrieve/destroy all lost pieces of equipment as well as Hunter corpses if applicable.<br />
# If any research or data has been accomplished involving Hunter biology or equipment, destroy or render said data/research useless.<br />
# Leave no/minimal evidence of Hunter involvement.<br />
# Keep damage to structures and environments to a minimum unless necessary for success of objectives 1 through 3.<br />
*Upon success of gear and body retrieval or destruction, the seeker or seeker team notifies the intermediary who then arranges a delivery of the missing equipment, or informs the clan of the resolution. The seekers of Clan Luar’Ke are never to know which clan they assisted, nor will the clan involved ever know who assisted them. There is no room for glory or validation in such a crucial task, Clan Luar’Ke will do it because it must be done.<br />

<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
*The clan of the Bo’ytill’s was made up by different sects, each following their own style of life. These different styles of life made the clan interesting, however, it was still a clan and the ruling elders and the clan leader ensured that tradition was followed. Tradition like the blooding ceremony, and the fact that the Bo’ytill clan was a clan of heathens. Oftentimes, those persecuted for their beliefs, or lack thereof would come to the Bo’ytill’s to take on their way of life.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
*The Bo’ytill clan was hidden in an eastern quadrant of Yautja prime, far secluded from the others, as they habilitated their own way of life in a more isolated section of the planet. They used this to their advantage, the isolation enabling the ability to practice their heathen culture without being associated as outcasts in the standard Yautja culture. They also used the isolation as a benefit enabling them to hunt, without worry of outer distractions. But as we all know, nothing can last forever, and hunts to far away planets would occur.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
*The process to attain the status of blooded in the Bo’ytill clan was gruesome. It was like other clan’s blooding rites, but if you failed three times, you were dragged to a stone pillar, clamped, and the younglings who were worthy of their own lives killed you. The spot over the years had been stained with the greenish blood of the Yautja deemed unworthy to live. If you managed to survive the blooding process, and attained the status of blooded, you were given the respect you deserved. Kar-ata had succeeded in his blooding on the first attempt, as most did. It was not an easy task, but the elders didn’t want to kill off their youth, and so they ensured that they were trained and taught well.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
*The isolation enjoyed by the Bo’ytill’s enabled them to hunt without worry about interference of other clans or outer impacts, yet over time, prey dwindled. The fact that they lived in a world that had been ravaged by Cetanu made things a tad difficult. With this in mind, the elders permitted hunts outside of Yautja prime, far away on planets such as LV-624 and Shiva’s Snowball. With new hunting grounds open to them, the Bo’ytill’s hunts grew gruesome. Their savagery was intense, and they fought like beasts. Honourable beasts! They claimed many trophies for their glory, and their feasts were always hearty. Maybe even as much as a hunter’s heart.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
*Respect and tradition. A large factor of the Bo’ytill clan was the respect. Your status earned you respect. Should you fail to respect them, the clan name, or the honor code, you were severely punished. Whippings were common for miscreants, and the loss of a mandible, or finger was not too rare either. In some cases, as a capital punishment, one would be chained to a coloumn and their dreadlocks removed. You followed the code and you listened to your elders, or you wouldn’t like the consequence, especially if important rules are breached. The working castes earned their pride through their crafts, yet the truly honorable were the hunters, those who could prove their worth and deserving of respect on the hunting grounds.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
As stated in the overview of the Bo’ytill clan, there were different sects, or branches of the clan. Listed below are some of these sects. They each have their own hierarchy, but it has no authority over those outside of its own, and the leaders inside are still subject to the rule of the clan elders.<br />
*One of these was the Thwei, a word which means “Blood” in the language of the Hunters. They were a group that was renowned for their bloodlust. It was they that had first come to the elders, seeking permission to extend their hunts deeper. With the request approved, Thwei was hunting on planets all around the galaxy.<br />
*Another of the sects was The Forgers of N'ithya D’lex. N’ithya being rock, or Earth, and D’lex being a strong crystalline material used for building. Both warriors and forgers belonged to this sect, the forgers themselves were often the primary workers, but warriors and blooded interested in crafting their own weapon often came to learn and make a blade suited for their own style of fighting. This sect was somewhat secluded inside the original stance of the Bo’ytill culture, for the reason that they respected the Goddess Dlex, in secret. Not worshipped, no, respected, acknowledged, but never worshipped.<br />
*The Bhu’ja Dekna. Those of the Bhu’ja Dekna tracked their prey and prepared. They always planned ahead. Moved for weeks on end, moving from target to target, trying to find one who was truly worthy of a fight. They carefully picked their target, stalked, and struck. Careful was their name, precision was their game. Their hunting skills were on par with the Thwei, but their style varied greatly. They were robust at all manners of tracking, and knew when the time was right to strike. But never did they dare breach the honor code, hunting a weakened target, or such, for they knew the dishonor would net them a heavy punishment by the elders.<br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
<br />
Matean-O, an elder of Na’Kuel, one very worshipping and praising of gods, seeking that everything he did pleased their gods. However, after multiple encounters, and failures to please these gods Matean-O, enraged, stricken and determined that the gods were false and his whole life was a lie, fled. He took his mate with him, and rallied any others that should follow, this of course enraged the elders, in which they ordered Matean-O to leave, driving him far to the Eastern Quadrant of Yautja Prime, the Bo’ytill’s new resting place for the years to come. Word was quick, as the clan was small. They adapted the name Bo’ytill’s, Bo’ytill standing for True-Seer, or Perfect sight, adopting this name, as Matean-O fully convinced the Bo’ytills that their decision and sight was correct, the gods were false, and they would make, and alter their destiny, not some false idols...<br />
<br />
Lokath’Dag looked to Matean-O and calmly said “Matean, you have come before us on, as you say, a matter of extreme urgency, tell us. What is the problem?”<br />
The elders looked expectantly at Matean-O, who began by saying, <br />
“Years. For so many years I worshipped the gods above all else. But do you know what came of that?”<br />
At this, the elders looked towards one another, then turned back to Matean-O. <br />
“Nothing! Those… those gods are nothing but children’s tales! Meant to keep us in line. They are nothing! I devoted everything to them, but I got nothing in return, not even acknowledgement!”<br />
“Where are you going with this, Matean-O?”<br />
“It’s over. These so-called ‘gods’ are not in any way real. Can’t you see that?”<br />
Lokath'Dag nodded to himself, then looked back and forth to the others. They nodded in unison. <br />
“Go.”<br />
“What?” Matean-O took a step back, startled. “You won’t even hear me out?”<br />
Lokath'Dag slowly stood up and walked over to Matean-O. <br />
“No Matean. You have disrespected our ways! You have brought shame on yourself, coming to us like this! You, of all people. I cannot believe what I am seeing.” Lokath took a step back and calmed himself down before saying.“Matean. I do not know what has gotten into you. Go home and think. Think about what you’re saying. Rest my friend.”<br />
<br />
That night Matean made up his mind. He went to his mate, and had them get ready to leave. After getting everything ready, Matean went to face the elders. For what he hoped would be the last time.<br />
“Matean, at this time of hour? Have you come to your senses?”<br />
“It is you who must come to your senses Lokath. You still don’t get it, do you? I must say I pity you.”<br />
“It is I who pity you Matean. You know that you are no longer welcome here. You must go. Far. Far east. And never return here. You are no longer welcome.” Lokath, sighed, before turning back and leaving the room.<br />
“I will miss you old friend.” Matean said, but alas, only the empty chamber heard it…<br />
<br />
Matean took his mate, and those who he had managed to convince, and fled, heading due east. To start a new life for himself. But not only for himself. He was going to start his own clan, one where you weren’t punished just because you didn’t worship idols. He named his clan “Bo’ytill” which means True-Seer, or Perfect Sight. For he had seen the truth. And he wanted to share it. He wanted to share it with everyone he could.<br />

=====Clan Lore=====<br />
======Overview:======<br />
The Nhon Clan is often regarded as one of the few remaining purely confident clans, often boasting so many young they had to inhabit a whole planet, one where they are often found hosting prolific gladiator matches in the cities testing the young in Blooding Rituals. Nhon members are often known for being the most unashamed hunter, often just walking around without using their cloaking device to test the prey nearby, anyone who had the guts to challenge them would often find them on the floor with their helmets missing afterwards as a trophy, a Nhon trademark. The clan is much more than that, boasting many academic schools of teaching, some featuring; anatomy, psychology, philosophy, and of course the art of war and the act of hunting. While also having many sources of literature which is often looked down upon, however many elites and elders might want to chronicle their life for the young ones to find inspiration and drive to become the best yautja ever. The clan is much more of a society that was looked down upon for their vast knowledge in anything they could come to possess.<br />
<br />
======Location:======<br />
The Nhon clan have expanded so much over the years they can come to inhabit a planet known as Jiralhos, this planet large enough to be habitable for many species for the Nhon clan to hunt and still live peacefully in their multiple cities spanning acrossing the globe. The cities have vast variety in each depending on the sect of Nhon you find yourself in, from marketplace, schools, temples, and coliseums the cities have a lot to offer for the Nhon members. Multiple sects are known for having their very own species preservation which consists of a vast ecosystem filled with multiple strong creatures to hunt and observe for the Nhon.<br />
<br />
======Blooding:======<br />
The Nhon clan blooding ritual is a much tougher ordeal than is standard, due to high expectations the leaders have for every hunter, and the principles the clan tends to follow. In order to even attempt the ritual, an Unblooded must meet the following criteria:<br />
<br />
- A tie or greater in a spar versus a Blooded hunter.<br />
- A passing score on a mental aptitude test.<br />
- Has made active contributions to areas of learning or debate.<br />
- A vouch from a Blooded hunter (not the one they sparred with, however).<br />
<br />
Once an Unblooded has qualified for the Blooding Ritual, they are taken to a gladiatorial arena located on the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos. This is where they must pass two trials:<br />
<br />
The Trial of Prowess - Two human gladiators are released into the arena, the Unblooded’s objective is to defeat the two gladiators without killing them, if the gladiators land four hits (two each) on the Unblooded, the trial is failed. If the gladiators are killed, the trial is failed. The objective of this trial is to prove that the Unblooded has the precision, prowess, and restraint enough to accomplish victory without killing anything in an outnumbered battle.<br />
<br />
The Trial of Solidarity - Once the gladiators are defeated, a Tier Three R’ka (usually a Praetorian or a Ravager) is released into the arena. The Unblooded’s goal is to kill it, however after sixty seconds, Tier One R’ka will begin being released into the arena. The Unblooded MUST NOT kill any Tier One R’ka, their only goal is to kill the Tier Three and escape the arena with the body intact. This will become their first trophy and allow them to become a Blooded member of <br />
the Nhon clan.<br />
<br />
Failed Rituals<br />
<br />
In the Nhon clan, Unbloodeds who have failed the Blooding Ritual will be forced to work as a pseudo-slave for one of the busier Blooded members for five years. While it is a distinctly unpleasant experience, there have very rarely been hunters who failed again after enduring these gruelling years.<br />
<br />
======The Hunt:======<br />
The hunt is considered to be the Nhon Clans favorite activity.<br />
<br />
======Respect:======<br />
Leader Rhuu’Nhon’s Helmet Stash<br />
<br />
Amongst some of the Nhon hunters, there have been many rumblings about Rhuu’Nhon’s trophy collection. Many have seen Rhuu take helmets for trophies, but her trophy room contains none of them. In addition to this, there is an unmarked attached room by Rhuu’Nhon’s private quarters, that she does not let any hunters enter. This has all but confirmed, in the eyes of her clan members, that she keeps an entire private room exclusively for helmets she has collected, which they consider quite amusing.<br />
<br />
Nhon Artists<br />
<br />
Many of the creative Blooded clan members within the clan have taken up “art”, after one of the hunters brought back a human artbook, and the competitive blood within them sparked a desire to prove they are better “artists” than any human. The art faction is constantly growing, now having their own dedicated rooms and even beginning to map out their own hub.<br />
<br />
Statue of the Founder<br />
<br />
In the central hub of the Nhon homeworld Jiralhos , there is a statue that was built hollow, and the body of the founding member was placed inside. None of the hunters have found any records as to why this was done, but they do not deny that it makes them feel closer to the Founder. Some hunters believe that every few years his spirit returns to gaze upon the clan he built once more.<br />
<br />
Hot Blood<br />
<br />
Due to the constant self-improvement philosophy of the clan, many of the hunters within it possess extremely competitive personalities. The desire to prove they truly are the best is so prevalent that entire days have been spent bickering over things as minor as handwriting and effigy crafting.<br />
<br />
Other Clans<br />
<br />
The official status that the Nhons have towards other clans is, generally, “We’re smarter than you, and better hunters too!” However, when another clan demonstrates knowledge or prowess that is largely unknown to the Nhons, they will usually send emissaries or powerful hunters to try and gain the knowledge they’re missing out on. Truly incorrigible.<br />
<br />
======The Sects:======<br />
(N/A)<br />
<br />
======Founding:======<br />
K’zar-Nhon<br />
<br />
K’zar-Nhon was the first and founding member of the Nhon clan, exiled from his birth clan for not being enough of a “hunter” in the clan’s eyes, he turned to creating his own clan of hunters to spread his way of hunting and living to others, in the hopes to one day create the perfect Yautja - both a scholar and a hunter.<br />

*'''Spetr - Do'Iash De'Rojok'''<br />
<hr><br />
=====Clan Lore=====<br />
*An obscure but old Yautja Clan, the De’Rojok Clan, also known as the ‘Coroners’ or ‘Record Keepers’ is mostly dedicated to S’ahul and The Literary Art. Unlike other clans, the Coroners are often seen collecting pieces of literature from other alien races, such as humans. These are more or less discarded shortly after a full read but on some rare occasions may find their place in the clan’s Library as pieces of entertainment or an analogical look at humanity’s psychological or anatomical make-up. <br />
<br />
*The De’Rojok Clan’s warriors are known to use thrown weapons and often carry a combi-stick.<br />
<br />
*While all Yautja Hunters take trophies, a member of the Record Keepers also carries along a journal and an incredibly sharp but durable pen. Using the back of the pen, the Yautja draws some of its own blood and uses it to write down his kill, it’s habits, any defining features, the time to kill and finally, the killing blow. This serves to remind the hunter that every kill takes blood and sweat, and to ensure the Yautja betters himself with every kill. Writing in the book is not an immediate action following a kill, but it is recommended to note the details down as soon as possible<br />
<br />
*Writing a whole book is generally seen as a sign of great prestige and dedication, the book being quickly deposited in the clan’s library along with many others, in order to become lectures of youngbloods.<br />

<hr />
<div>This page will detail what information or knowledge roles are expected to know, or not know, at round start.<br />
<br />
== Humans ==<br />
<br />
* All marines are familiar with Aliens and their lifecycle and habits, but are not initially aware of the infestation of the colony, and cannot make plans based on the presence of Aliens. Once a Alien or resin is reported, you are to assume you are dealing with Aliens.<br />
<br />
* All Marines as well as the Almayer crew are able-bodied. Meaning USCM won't enlist someone to the Marines who are not crippled or mentally damaged.<br />
<br />
* Survivors may ONLY share the information your character knows with the Marines. (Until the new knowledge system is implemented, you know the basic life-cycle and that the aliens are "in the east".)<br />
<br />
* Every Marine role in the game have [[The Skill System|different skills]] depending on their starting role. For example, while a Chief Medical Doctor is an master in medical services (Such as the knowledge of different types of pills and surgery), they're untrained in building engineering items (They have a limited set of items that can only be built by novice-skilled roles).<br />
<br />
* Specialist weaponry (Including the B18 armor) can only be used by the Specialist role. As they're trained in Heavy Weaponry. However, other Specialists do NOT know how to use other Specialist weapons besides their own weapon and equipment.<br />
<br />
* The M56 handheld Smartgun can only be used by the Smartgunner, PMC Smartgunner and the Commander. As all of them are trained in the usage of a Smartgun. The M56D mounted Smartgun can be used by many other roles.<br />
<br />
* Combat Medics and Researchers do not know how to preform surgery, only Medical Doctors or the Chief Medical Officer know how to perform surgery.<br />
<br />
* Marines are allowed to know about Alien facehuggers and what they do, and can assume that if they wake up in the hive, that they are infected, or they awake from suddenly being unconscious.<br />
<br />
* Command (CO, XO, Staff Officer), Medical (MD, CMO) and Engineering staff (CE, Maint Tech) on board the Almayer May deploy to the AO, as long as it follows their [[Standard Operating Procedure|SOP]], but should avoid going into direct combat.<br />
<br />
* Military Police and Chief Military Police can not leave the Almayer unless they are doing so to track down a rogue Marine who is not on the Almayer or they are escorting/piloting a Dropship. Military Police and CMPs are expected to return to the Almayer ASAP. The expection to this rule is when defcon 1 is reached and the nuke is deployed, in which case they are allowed to deploy and protect it, leaving before the nuke is set off, or FOB is overrun<br />
<br />
*Marines do not know of the existence of "Jamaicans" (see both [[Slang|Slang]] and [[Hunters|Hunters]]), nor does the USCM or WY have recorded history of them. Once proven to be hostile they are free to be killed.<br />
<br />
== Aliens ==<br />
<br />
* As long as slashing is enabled, Aliens are allowed to kill marines if they deem it necessary. If a Marine is infected and alone, care should be taken to ensure they are captured and brought to the hive for securement.<br />
<br />
* You are to listen to the Queens every order, even if it means blatantly suiciding. if you believe the Queen is attempting to break a rule, Ahelp it and let admins deal with it, it is not your job to disobey.<br />
<br />
* If the Queen dies, all Aliens are free to use lethal force on any prey, beware that you're unable to use the alien Hivemind. However if there is no drone or drone caste to evolve into a queen, care should be taken to ensure a human is infected and evolves into a queen.<br />
<br />
* You know that more humans are on their way to the area, as you can feel their presence in the sky.<br />
<br />
*You are aware of "Headhunters" ((see both [[Slang|Slang]] and [[Hunters|Hunters]]) existenence, and know that they on occasion will hunt your strongest members, and if infected produce a special Alien. (see [[Abomination|Abomination]]), but they will hunt this abomination down and use all their tools to kill it.</div>Aidenzack1https://cm-ss13.com/w/index.php?title=Aliens&diff=17234Aliens2020-10-19T08:20:35Z<p>Aidenzack1: /* Alien Castes */ Fixed Ravanger plasma stat</p>

''"You still don't understand what you're dealing with, do you? Perfect organism. Its structural perfection is matched only by its hostility. I admire its purity. A survivor... unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality. Is there room enough in space for us and it?"'' - Ash, ''Alien''<br />
<br />
The '''Alien''' (aka '''Xeno''') is one the main opposing forces of the [[Marines|USCM Marines]] during rounds on CM-SS13. The Aliens are fearsome creatures, perfected for combat to the point of challenging the Marine force with fewer numbers.<br />
<br />
You are part of the Hive, under the [[Queen]]. You are, but a manifestation of her will, and your primary and only task is '''to expand and protect the Hive'''. You are reasonably intelligent and capable of quickly learning from the events during the infestation of the colony, yet you show no compassion or empathy. Your job will only be done when the Hive reigns over all that you can reach.<br />
<br />
==Evolution Diagram==<br />
[[File:Evolution.png|link=http://cm-ss13.com/wiki/images/5/53/Evolution.png]]<br />
<br />
<br />
== Starting Out ==<br />
If you are chosen as one of the first Aliens, you will spawn as a [[Larva]] inside the colony that has just days previous been pillaged and demolished, allowing you to spread out of control and infect or slaughter the entire colonist population. While the colony is mostly safe aside from a handful of hardened [[Survivor]]s stubbornly clinging to life, this may not hold true long.<br />
<br />
The Hivemind has full knowledge of the colony on which you were born, and many of its facets, even the most complex. Its entire layout, how power and lighting functions, and where particular locations are. The little of resistance the Hivemind met also granted you some knowledge on the weapons you may expect to be used against you, like guns, knives, and grenades.<br />
<br />
One of the first tasks of the Hive is to find a nesting ground. Due to how vital this nest is and how disastrous it would be for Marines to find and destroy it, it is recommended to put it in the most secluded and secure location available. Nothing prevents you from making smaller nests closer to the action, but it could mean that the hosts manage to escape if the nesting area is pushed upon by the marines.<br />
<br />
If this is your first time as a Alien, check the [http://cm-ss13.com/wiki/Xeno_Quickstart_Guide Xeno Quickstart Guide]. Here are additional tips:<br />
* Speak in Hivemind by using ''':q''' or ''';''' before your message. Example: Say ''":q My life for the Queen!"'' or ''"; My life for the Queen!"'' instead<br />
* You are a manifestation of the Queen's will. Follow her orders or die trying. If the orders appear to break server rules, you should warn the admins.<br />
* Grow the Hive. Gather together any hosts (living monkeys and humans) and bring them to the nest to incubate more Larvae.<br />
* Weeds are paramount to you. While off weeds, your plasma will regenerate very slowly and you will not heal. If you do need to stray off weeds, remember this dearly, do not get caught exhausted and badly wounded far from weeds. Keep in mind that to heal at a fast, steady rate on weeds you need to be resting as if you stand while on weeds to heal you'll heal significantly slower.<br />

== Event-Specific Alien Hives ==<br />
For special events, Admins may spawn in Aliens of different hives that operate independently of the primary hive, with their own Queen and structure. This is like a Squad for Marines, but for Aliens. They are distinguished by name and color, with the names having prefixes like "Corrupted" "Alpha", "Beta", "Zeta", and so on. Depending on the event, they may be tasked with helping the original hive, be sided with the humans as enslaved Aliens, or act as a third faction hostile to both.<br />
<br />
Their abilities are identical to normal Aliens and will function identically against humans. Some abilities, such as neurotoxin, will also affect other Aliens as well.<br />
<br />
'''These Alien hives will never appear in the normal play, and must be spawned in by an Admin.'''<br />

''"You still don't understand what you're dealing with, do you? Perfect organism. Its structural perfection is matched only by its hostility. I admire its purity. A survivor... unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality. Is there room enough in space for us and it?"'' - Ash, ''Alien''<br />
<br />
The '''Alien''' (aka '''Xeno''') is one the main opposing forces of the [[Marines|USCM Marines]] during rounds on CM-SS13. The Aliens are fearsome creatures, perfected for combat to the point of challenging the Marine force with fewer numbers.<br />
<br />
You are part of the Hive, under the [[Queen]]. You are, but a manifestation of her will, and your primary and only task is '''to expand and protect the Hive'''. You are reasonably intelligent and capable of quickly learning from the events during the infestation of the colony, yet you show no compassion or empathy. Your job will only be done when the Hive reigns over all that you can reach.<br />
<br />
==Evolution Diagram==<br />
[[File:Evolution.png|link=http://cm-ss13.com/wiki/images/5/53/Evolution.png]]<br />
<br />
<br />
== Starting Out ==<br />
If you are chosen as one of the first Aliens, you will spawn as a [[Larva]] inside the colony that has just days previous been pillaged and demolished, allowing you to spread out of control and infect or slaughter the entire colonist population. While the colony is mostly safe aside from a handful of hardened [[Survivor]]s stubbornly clinging to life, this may not hold true long.<br />
<br />
The Hivemind has full knowledge of the colony on which you were born, and many of its facets, even the most complex. Its entire layout, how power and lighting functions, and where particular locations are. The little of resistance the Hivemind met also granted you some knowledge on the weapons you may expect to be used against you, like guns, knives, and grenades.<br />
<br />
One of the first tasks of the Hive is to find a nesting ground. Due to how vital this nest is and how disastrous it would be for Marines to find and destroy it, it is recommended to put it in the most secluded and secure location available. Nothing prevents you from making smaller nests closer to the action, but it could mean that the hosts manage to escape if the nesting area is pushed upon by the marines.<br />
<br />
If this is your first time as a Alien, check the [http://cm-ss13.com/wiki/Xeno_Quickstart_Guide Xeno Quickstart Guide]. Here are additional tips:<br />
* Speak in Hivemind by using ''':q''' or ''';''' before your message. Example: Say ''":q My life for the Queen!"'' or ''"; My life for the Queen!"'' instead<br />
* You are a manifestation of the Queen's will. Follow her orders or die trying. If the orders appear to break server rules, you should warn the admins.<br />
* Grow the Hive. Gather together any hosts (living monkeys and humans) and bring them to the nest to incubate more Larvae.<br />
* Weeds are paramount to you. While off weeds, your plasma will regenerate very slowly and you will not heal. If you do need to stray off weeds, remember this dearly, do not get caught exhausted and badly wounded far from weeds. Keep in mind that to heal at a fast, steady rate on weeds you need to be resting as if you stand while on weeds to heal you'll heal significantly slower.<br />

Due to how vital this nest is and how disastrous it would be for Marines to find and destroy it, it is recommended to put it in the most secluded and secure location available. Nothing prevents you from making smaller nests closer to the action, but it could mean that the hosts manage to escape if the nesting area is pushed upon by the marines.<br />
<br />
If this is your first time as a Alien, check the [http://cm-ss13.com/wiki/Xeno_Quickstart_Guide Xeno Quickstart Guide]. Here are additional tips:<br />
* Speak in Hivemind by using ''':q''' or ''';''' before your message. Example: Say ''":q My life for the Queen!"'' or ''"; My life for the Queen!"'' instead<br />
* You are a manifestation of the Queen's will. Follow her orders or die trying. If the orders appear to break server rules, you should warn the admins.<br />
* Grow the Hive. Gather together any hosts (living monkeys and humans) and bring them to the nest to incubate more Larvae.<br />
* Weeds are paramount to you. While off weeds, your plasma will regenerate very slowly and you will not heal. If you do need to stray off weeds, remember this dearly, do not get caught exhausted and badly wounded far from weeds. Keep in mind that to heal at a fast, steady rate on weeds you need to be resting as if you stand while on weeds to heal you'll heal significantly slower.<br />

== Event-Specific Alien Hives ==<br />
For special events, Admins may spawn in Aliens of different hives that operate independently of the primary hive, with their own Queen and structure. This is like a Squad for Marines, but for Aliens. They are distinguished by name and color, with the names having prefixes like "Corrupted" "Alpha", "Beta", "Zeta", and so on. Depending on the event, they may be tasked with helping the original hive, be sided with the humans as enslaved Aliens, or act as a third faction hostile to both.<br />
<br />
Their abilities are identical to normal Aliens and will function identically against humans. Some abilities, such as neurotoxin, will also affect other Aliens as well.<br />
<br />
'''These Alien hives will never appear in the normal play, and must be spawned in by an Admin.'''<br />

==Overview==<br />
----<br />
You are the Predalien, considered a ultimate lifeform composed of the Yautja DNA with the Aliens DNA, creating a strong beast. Kill talls and headhunters to increase your total strength. Headhunters will do their best to terminate you, seeing you as an abomination of a creature, not worthy of life, show them they're wrong.<br />
<br />
You are the fruition of the hives great work to both impregnate a headhunter, and manage to restrain it, this means you are something the hive will want to keep around, after all, if you die, all the work your hive did to make you will be wasted.<br />
<br><br><br />
<br />
== Playing a Predalien ==<br />
----<br />
Predaliens start off rather weak, somewhat relying on the tankier members of the hive to soak up damage while the Predaliens secures kills and grows in strength. Remember, you deal increased damage to Yautja, and a majority of your abilities will either only work on Yautja, or have increased effects on them.<br />
<br><br><br />
You have a leap ability, useful for avoiding bullets and Yautja's weaponry. Your leap will not stun your opponent, and has a short cooldown, use this to evade enemies while sneaking in slashes.<br />
<br><br><br />
Your roar can be used to both bring yautja out of their cloak as they fire at you as well as giving you and your allies a damage and speed boost, allowing you and other xenos to close in and cause severe damage and finish them off<br />
<br><br><br />
Your devastate ability can be used to cause severe damage to a singled out opponent, rooting them in place to near guarantee they take massive amounts of damage, even being moved will not stop this ability. Be warned, due to this and its high plasma cost, you might be put in a situation where you can be surrounded and killed, so only use this ability when you are sure it will work<br />
<br><br><br />
Remember, with each kill you gain your damage will also increase, capping off at 10 kills. This means you start off weak, but as you gain kills you will become stronger. Remember, you are still a member of the alien hive, work together with them and listen to your queen.<br />

==Overview==<br />
----<br />
You are the Predalien, considered a ultimate lifeform composed of the Yautja DNA with the Aliens DNA, creating a strong beast. Kill talls and headhunters to increase your total strength. Headhunters will do their best to terminate you, seeing you as an abomination of a creature, not worthy of life, show them they're wrong.<br />
<br />
You are the fruition of the hives great work to both impregnate a headhunter, and manage to restrain it, this means you are something the hive will want to keep around, after all, if you die, all the work your hive did to make you will be wasted.<br />
<br><br><br />
<br />
== Playing a Predalien ==<br />
----<br />
Predaliens start off rather weak, somewhat relying on the tankier members of the hive to soak up damage while the Predaliens secures kills and grows in strength. Remember, you deal increased damage to Yautja, and a majority of your abilites will either only work on Yautja, or have increased effects on them.<br />
<br><br><br />
You have a leap ability, useful for avoiding bullets and Yautja's weaponry. Your leap will not stun your opponent, and has a short cooldown, use this to evade enemies while sneaking in slashes.<br />
<br><br><br />
Your roar can be used to bring yautja out of their cloak as they fire at you, allowing you and other xenos to close in and cause severe damage and finish them off<br />
<br><br><br />
Your devastate ability can be used to cause severe damage to a stunned or cornered opponent, causing severe and devastating damage, be ware this ability has a long cooldown and a costs a lot of plasma.<br />
<br><br><br />
Remember, with each kill you gain your damage will also increase, capping off at 10 kills. This means you start off weak, but as you gain kills you will become stronger. Remember, you are still a member of the alien hive, work together with them and listen to your queen.<br />

<hr />
<div>= The Hive =<br />
<br />
The [[Queen]], the [[Hivelord]] and the [[Drone]] all share the ability to secrete resin and shape said resin into structures. This ability is incredibly important, as it enables them to develop Hives: large resin chambers in which Aliens can live, recover and gather hosts. These environments are generally hostile to non-Aliens, and can be used as a defensive position, allowing Aliens to shape the battle to their advantage as they get pushed back.<br />
<br />
All resin structures, outside of the Resin Sac, must be built on existing resin weeds. This means that building Hives is a methodical process. Weeds must first be planted in an area and allowed to spread, before more complex structures can be erected atop said weeds.<br />
<br />
Resin structures are relatively sturdy, and are able to sustain decent punishment from firearms, explosives and sharp weapons before falling apart. <br />
Weeds and sticky resin are exceptionally weak to fire and high-explosives, while Resin Structures are easily destroyed by explosive and incendiary ammunition types.<br />
<br />
Note that weeds can only be planted in areas that do not have pre-existing structures or objects on them. Things like catwalks, grasses, and other obstructions prevent the weeding of an area.<br />
<br />
Only one resin structure may be built on a chosen tile, excluding Resin Sacs. As such, it is impossible to stack a nest and sticky resin, or a door and sticky resin. If a structure is getting in the way, you can claw it apart or tear it down.<br />
<br><br><br />
<br />
== Special Hive Structures ==<br />
* Hive builders, (drones, hivelords, Queen) must first designate a tile with weeds on it to designate where they want it built.<br />
* All aliens can contribute their plasma in building these special hive structures by simply clicking on it.<br />
* Hive leaders as well as the Queen can destroy special hive structures by clicking on them with harm intent.<br />

|-<br />
| Resin Weeds are secreted from a special Resin Sac that one regurgitates and places on the ground. From there, it will spread weeds tile by tile in a small, circular radius until stopping.<br><br />
Weeds are critical for even the most basic Hive to be built and are always beneficial even if no special fortifications are planned. In many cases, they can mean the difference between life and death for Aliens. They are, however extremely fragile and easy to rip away.<br />
<br />
<br />
Health Points: 11<br />
|| <br />
* Any alien standing on weeds will receive increased plasma regeneration and will regenerate their health slowly. They need to rest to heal at a faster rate. In addition to this, any alien on weeds will have their speed increased slightly.<br />
* Humans moving through weeds will be slowed down slightly, making it harder for them to evade and maneuver.<br />

! style="background:#C075C7" | Image<br />
|-<br />
| Resin Walls are another important part of the Hive. Rarely will existing terrain be perfect for the Alien's use, and often they may wish to adjust it. Resin walls are big, opaque and fairly tough structures, capable of withstanding a reasonable amount of fire<br><br />
Their most obvious use is to delimit chambers inside a completed Hive, but their properties also make them excellent cover. As you will almost always be threatened with ranged weaponry, this makes resin walls invaluable in defensive setups.<br />
<br />
<br />
Health Points: 900<br />
|| <br />
* Completely blocks line of sight. Aliens can use their special vision to see mobs through them regardless.<br />
* Sturdiest structure available to the Aliens, making for good hardcover until destroyed.<br />

! style="background:#C075C7" scope="col" width="300" | Uses<br />
! style="background:#C075C7" | Image<br />
|-<br />
| Thick Resin Walls are a major upgrade over regular Resin Walls, exclusive to the [[Hivelord]] caste. While normal Resin Walls will tend to fall rapidly to enemy fire, Thick Resin Walls will usually hold up for much longer, for little added cost to the Alien building and maintaining them. This makes a Hivelord invaluable when building Hives and forward positions, and can potentially stall Marine advances if positioned properly.<br />
<br />
Health Points: 1350<br />
|| <br />
* Straight upgrade over Resin Walls, able to soak up much more punishment before falling apart, for the almost the same initial investment and build time.<br />
* Can only be built by a [[Hivelord]], replacing normal Resin Walls.<br />

|-<br />
| Resin Membranes are a transparent resin structure, with the strength of Resin Walls, allowing direct line of sight. This is particularly useful for larvae gestation as every infected marine within the line of sight of each other speeds up the incubation process meaning that you'll have more larvae in a shorter amount of time. Hivelords build an upgraded version of the resin membrane that has more health. (The name is the same, yet the sprite is darker)<br />

! style="background:#C075C7" | Image<br />
|-<br />
| Resin Doors are specially crafted resin membranes, allowing Aliens to navigate through the Hive. Thanks to the special elastic resin used to shape them, they will collapse back to their original shape after a short while, opening and closing themselves for passing Aliens , although this ability means that a resin door must be placed next to a resin or normal (metal walls, cave wall, etc..) or it will collapse.<br><br />
Resin Doors are paramount to most Hives for obvious reasons. A chamber is of no use to anyone if it cannot be entered or left. However, you should consider adding more than one door. Faced with Resin Doors in multiple directions, no-one can be fully confident which one will open to reveal a Aliens. Hivelords can make construct or upgrade existing resin doors to make them stronger (there is no name or skin change for upgraded doors).<br />

! style="background:#C075C7" | Image<br />
|-<br />
| Resin Nests are an important structure for Hive nurseries, allowing Aliens to lay down and secure hosts using extra resin provided within the nest, preventing them from easily leaving and thus allowing a relatively large amount to be guarded safely. The medium it provides is particularly suited for incubation, meaning that Aliens Embryos will grow faster within nested hosts.<br><br />
Nests are not particularly sturdy and will be destroyed fairly easily. While a nested host will find it impossible to break out on his own, it is effortless for him to be cut out by someone else.<br />
<br />
<br />
Health Points: 400<br />
|| <br />
* Allows the Hive to secure hosts for incubation.<br />
* Increases Alien Embryo growth.<br />
* Can only be built on hiveweeds.<br />
* Multiple hosts that are in line of sight of each other increases embryo growth.<br />

! style="background:#C075C7" | Image<br />
|-<br />
| Sticky Resin is an arrangement of thick, stringy resin filament strewn across weeded floors able to easily delay and bog down any human going through them. This allows Aliens to make their Hive even more dangerous to navigate, with no other cost than making the selected space not usable for anything else until destroyed.<br><br />
A Hive might find it wise to fill empty spaces with sticky resin once the layout of the Hive is done. In a pinch, it is recommended to at least cover entrances, doorways and surround nests. Praetorians are capable of a ranged thin sticky resin spit, which can be helpful for quick stick.<br />
<br />
<br />
Health Points: 45<br />
|| <br />
* Slows down and even halts non-Aliens movement<br />
* A bit harder to get rid of compared to Resin Weeds.<br />

|-<br />
| Fast Resin is an arrangement of sleek resin filament strewn across weeded floors able to easily hasten the movement of any fellow alien. This allows Aliens to make navigation from the hive to the front (and vice versa) much easier, with no other cost than making the selected space not usable for anything else until destroyed.<br><br />
Though the benefit of speed is somewhat mutual to the marines. Fast resin will not slow the marines down but it won't boost their speed.<br />
<br />
<br />
Health Points: 30<br />
|| <br />
* Speeds up down Aliens movement when walking over it.<br />
* Doesn't slow down marines.<br />
|| [[File:resin_fast.png|64px]]<br />
|}<br />
<br />
==Hive Planning==<br />
<br />
While it is easy to throw down resin, it is essential to try and plan for what you want to do with the space you are using. Are you merely weeding the terrain? Are you planning to supplement existing structures with doors and walls? Are you making a full Hive chamber? Is it going to be a defensive chamber, a maze for assaulting unsuspecting marines, or a nest for captured hosts?<br />
<br />
Not planning can lead to severe errors, and once a Hive is well underway, it is incredibly time-consuming to tear down resin structures to try again. Be careful about the space available to you.<br />
<br />
<br />
Some standard tips to help you build a Hive worthy of your Aliens Hive:<br />
<br />
* As time goes on, any area that isn't weeded and can be, should be. Weeds are the life and blood of the Hive, and as the Resin Weeds spread and extend through the colony, the area where Marines can safely navigate shrinks proportionally. In the event of combat, remember that even the smallest patch of weeds can be used to rest and recover plasma and health.<br />
<br />
* An average chamber should be thoroughly sealed with Resin Walls and Resin Doors. A good hive should have wide entrances to make maneuvering easier and multiple exits to ensure that aliens don't get cornered and trapped by the USCM. <br />
<br />
* A wall of Resin Walls and Resin Doors is the most basic defensive setup. While it can be destroyed with concentrated fire, it allows Aliens to break line of sight and provides secure locations to ambush marines. More advanced tactics can involve stacking walls, or creating single Resin Walls for Aliens to hide behind.<br />
<br />
*Usually, it is best to nest tall hosts near the smalls, to increase their burst speed. However, if the marines are nearing the hive, it can be a good idea to move the tall hosts to a more secure location to ensure a safe burst.<br />
<br />
* Sticky Resin is a useful tool to hamper human maneuverability inside the hive, with the drawback of restricting construction on the tile it is built on. However, if you do choose to build, you can clear stick resin in one swipe.<br />

==Hive Planning==<br />
<br />
While it is easy to throw down resin, it is essential to try and plan for what you want to do with the space you are using. Are you merely weeding the terrain? Are you planning to supplement existing structures with doors and walls? Are you making a full Hive chamber? Is it going to be a defensive chamber, a maze for assaulting unsuspecting marines, or a nest for captured hosts?<br />
<br />
Not planning can lead to severe errors, and once a Hive is well underway, it is incredibly time-consuming to tear down resin structures to try again. Be careful about the space available to you.<br />
<br />
<br />
Some standard tips to help you build a Hive worthy of your Aliens Hive:<br />
<br />
* As time goes on, any area that isn't weeded and can be, should be. Weeds are the life and blood of the Hive, and as the Resin Weeds spread and extend through the colony, the area where Marines can safely navigate shrinks proportionally. In the event of combat, remember that even the smallest patch of weeds can be used to rest and recover plasma and health.<br />
<br />
* An average chamber should be thoroughly sealed with Resin Walls and Resin Doors. A good hive should have wide entrances to make maneuvering easier and multiple exits to ensure that aliens don't get cornered and trapped by the USCM. <br />
<br />
* A wall of Resin Walls and Resin Doors is the most basic defensive setup. While it can be destroyed with concentrated fire, it allows Aliens to break line of sight and provides secure locations to ambush marines. More advanced tactics can involve stacking walls, or creating single Resin Walls for Aliens to hide behind.<br />
<br />
*Usually, it is best to nest tall hosts near the smalls, to increase their burst speed. However, if the marines are nearing the hive, it can be a good idea to move the tall hosts to a more secure location to ensure a safe burst.<br />
<br />
* Sticky Resin is a useful tool to hamper human maneuverability inside the hive, with the drawback of restricting construction on the tile it is built on. However, if you do choose to build, you can clear stick resin in one swipe.<br />

<hr />
<div>= The Hive =<br />
<br />
The [[Queen]], the [[Hivelord]] and the [[Drone]] all share the ability to secrete resin and shape said resin into structures. This ability is incredibly important, as it enables them to develop Hives: large resin chambers in which Aliens can live, recover and gather hosts. These environments are generally hostile to non-Aliens, and can be used as a defensive position, allowing Aliens to shape the battle to their advantage as they get pushed back.<br />
<br />
All resin structures, outside of the Resin Sac, must be built on existing resin weeds. This means that building Hives is a methodical process. Weeds must first be planted in an area and allowed to spread, before more complex structures can be erected atop said weeds.<br />
<br />
Resin structures are relatively sturdy, and are able to sustain decent punishment from firearms, explosives and sharp weapons before falling apart. <br />
Weeds and sticky resin are exceptionally weak to fire and high-explosives, while Resin Structures are easily destroyed by explosive and incendiary ammunition types.<br />
<br />
Note that weeds can only be planted in areas that do not have pre-existing structures or objects on them. Things like catwalks, grasses, and other obstructions prevent the weeding of an area.<br />
<br />
Only one resin structure may be built on a chosen tile, excluding Resin Sacs. As such, it is impossible to stack a nest and sticky resin, or a door and sticky resin. If a structure is getting in the way, you can claw it apart or tear it down.<br />
<br><br><br />
<br />
== Special Hive Structures ==<br />
* Hive builders, (drones, hivelords, Queen) must first designate a tile with weeds on it to designate where they want it built.<br />
* All aliens can contribute their plasma in building these special hive structures by simply clicking on it.<br />
* Hive leaders as well as the Queen can destroy special hive structures by clicking on them with harm intent.<br />

==Hive Planning==<br />
<br />
While it is easy to throw down resin, it is essential to try and plan for what you want to do with the space you are using. Are you merely weeding the terrain? Are you planning to supplement existing structures with doors and walls? Are you making a full Hive chamber? Is it going to be a defensive chamber, a maze for assaulting unsuspecting marines, or a nest for captured hosts?<br />
<br />
Not planning can lead to severe errors, and once a Hive is well underway, it is incredibly time-consuming to tear down resin structures to try again. Be careful about the space available to you.<br />
<br />
<br />
Some standard tips to help you build a Hive worthy of your Aliens Hive:<br />
<br />
* As time goes on, any area that isn't weeded and can be, should be. Weeds are the life and blood of the Hive, and as the Resin Weeds spread and extend through the colony, the area where Marines can safely navigate shrinks proportionally. In the event of combat, remember that even the smallest patch of weeds can be used to rest and recover plasma and health.<br />
<br />
* An average chamber should be thoroughly sealed with Resin Walls and Resin Doors. A good hive should have wide entrances to make maneuvering easier and multiple exits to ensure that aliens don't get cornered and trapped by the USCM. <br />
<br />
* A wall of Resin Walls and Resin Doors is the most basic defensive setup. While it can be destroyed with concentrated fire, it allows Aliens to break line of sight and provides secure locations to ambush marines. More advanced tactics can involve stacking walls, or creating single Resin Walls for Aliens to hide behind.<br />
<br />
*Usually, it is best to nest tall hosts near the smalls, to increase their burst speed. However, if the marines are nearing the hive, it can be a good idea to move the tall hosts to a more secure location to ensure a safe burst.<br />
<br />
* Sticky Resin is a useful tool to hamper human maneuverability inside the hive, with the drawback of restricting construction on the tile it is built on. However, if you do choose to build, you can clear stick resin in one swipe.<br />

<hr />
<div>= The Hive =<br />
<br />
The [[Queen]], the [[Hivelord]] and the [[Drone]] all share the ability to secrete resin and shape said resin into structures. This ability is incredibly important, as it enables them to develop Hives: large resin chambers in which Aliens can live, recover and gather hosts. These environments are generally hostile to non-Aliens, and can be used as a defensive position, allowing Aliens to shape the battle to their advantage as they get pushed back.<br />
<br />
All resin structures, outside of the Resin Sac, must be built on existing resin weeds. This means that building Hives is a methodical process. Weeds must first be planted in an area and allowed to spread, before more complex structures can be erected atop said weeds.<br />
<br />
Resin structures are relatively sturdy, and are able to sustain decent punishment from firearms, explosives and sharp weapons before falling apart. <br />
Weeds and sticky resin are exceptionally weak to fire and high-explosives, while Resin Structures are easily destroyed by explosive and incendiary ammunition types.<br />
<br />
Note that weeds can only be planted in areas that do not have pre-existing structures or objects on them. Things like catwalks, grasses, and other obstructions prevent the weeding of an area.<br />
<br />
Only one resin structure may be built on a chosen tile, excluding Resin Sacs. As such, it is impossible to stack a nest and sticky resin, or a door and sticky resin. If a structure is getting in the way, you can claw it apart or tear it down.<br />
<br><br><br />
<br />
== Special Hive Structures ==<br />
* Hive builders, (drones, hivelords, Queen) must first designate a tile with weeds on it to designate where they want it built.<br />
* All aliens can contribute their plasma in building these special hive structures by simply clicking on it.<br />
* Hive leaders as well as the Queen can destroy special hive structures by clicking on them with harm intent.<br />

! style="background:#C075C7" scope="col" width="300" | Uses<br />
! style="background:#C075C7" | Image<br />
|-<br />
| Resin Weeds are secreted from a special Resin Sac that one regurgitates and places on the ground. From there, it will spread weeds tile by tile in a small, circular radius until stopping.<br><br />
Weeds are critical for even the most basic Hive to be built and are always beneficial even if no special fortifications are planned. In many cases, they can mean the difference between life and death for Aliens. They are, however extremely fragile and easy to rip away.<br />
|| <br />
* Any alien standing on weeds will receive increased plasma regeneration and will regenerate their health slowly. They need to rest to heal at a faster rate. In addition to this, any alien on weeds will have their speed increased slightly.<br />
* Humans moving through weeds will be slowed down slightly, making it harder for them to evade and maneuver.<br />

|-<br />
| Resin Walls are another important part of the Hive. Rarely will existing terrain be perfect for the Alien's use, and often they may wish to adjust it. Resin walls are big, opaque and fairly tough structures, capable of withstanding a reasonable amount of fire<br><br />
Their most obvious use is to delimit chambers inside a completed Hive, but their properties also make them excellent cover. As you will almost always be threatened with ranged weaponry, this makes resin walls invaluable in defensive setups.<br />
|| <br />
* Completely blocks line of sight. Aliens can use their special vision to see mobs through them regardless.<br />
* Sturdiest structure available to the Aliens, making for good hardcover until destroyed.<br />

! style="background:#C075C7" | Image<br />
|-<br />
| Thick Resin Walls are a major upgrade over regular Resin Walls, exclusive to the [[Hivelord]] caste. While normal Resin Walls will tend to fall rapidly to enemy fire, Thick Resin Walls will usually hold up for much longer, for little added cost to the Alien building and maintaining them. This makes a Hivelord invaluable when building Hives and forward positions, and can potentially stall Marine advances if positioned properly.<br />
|| <br />
* Straight upgrade over Resin Walls, able to soak up much more punishment before falling apart, for the almost the same initial investment and build time.<br />
* Can only be built by a [[Hivelord]], replacing normal Resin Walls.<br />

|-<br />
| Resin Membranes are a transparent resin structure, with the strength of Resin Walls, allowing direct line of sight. This is particularly useful for larvae gestation as every infected marine within the line of sight of each other speeds up the incubation process meaning that you'll have more larvae in a shorter amount of time. Hivelords build an upgraded version of the resin membrane that has more health. (The name is the same, yet the sprite is darker)<br />
|| <br />
* Allows vision through, while giving the same protection as a resin wall.<br />

! style="background:#C075C7" scope="col" width="300" | Uses<br />
! style="background:#C075C7" | Image<br />
|-<br />
| Resin Doors are specially crafted resin membranes, allowing Aliens to navigate through the Hive. Thanks to the special elastic resin used to shape them, they will collapse back to their original shape after a short while, opening and closing themselves for passing Aliens , although this ability means that a resin door must be placed next to a resin or normal (metal walls, cave wall, etc..) or it will collapse.<br><br />
Resin Doors are paramount to most Hives for obvious reasons. A chamber is of no use to anyone if it cannot be entered or left. However, you should consider adding more than one door. Faced with Resin Doors in multiple directions, no-one can be fully confident which one will open to reveal a Aliens. Hivelords can make construct or upgrade existing resin doors to make them stronger (there is no name or skin change for upgraded doors).<br />
|| <br />
* Allows Aliens to pass through somewhat seamlessly while denying access to humans unless destroyed.<br />
* Less sturdy than a wall, but capable of holding its own against limited punishment.<br />

! style="background:#C075C7" | Image<br />
|-<br />
| Resin Nests are an important structure for Hive nurseries, allowing Aliens to lay down and secure hosts using extra resin provided within the nest, preventing them from easily leaving and thus allowing a relatively large amount to be guarded safely. The medium it provides is particularly suited for incubation, meaning that Aliens Embryos will grow faster within nested hosts.<br><br />
Nests are not particularly sturdy and will be destroyed fairly easily. While a nested host will find it impossible to break out on his own, it is effortless for him to be cut out by someone else.<br />
|| <br />
* Allows the Hive to secure hosts for incubation.<br />
* Increases Alien Embryo growth.<br />
* Can only be built on hiveweeds.<br />
* Multiple hosts that are in line of sight of each other increases embryo growth.<br />

! style="background:#C075C7" scope="col" width="300" | Uses<br />
! style="background:#C075C7" | Image<br />
|-<br />
| Sticky Resin is an arrangement of thick, stringy resin filament strewn across weeded floors able to easily delay and bog down any human going through them. This allows Aliens to make their Hive even more dangerous to navigate, with no other cost than making the selected space not usable for anything else until destroyed.<br><br />
A Hive might find it wise to fill empty spaces with sticky resin once the layout of the Hive is done. In a pinch, it is recommended to at least cover entrances, doorways and surround nests. Praetorians are capable of a ranged thin sticky resin spit, which can be helpful for quick stick.<br />
|| <br />

| Fast Resin is an arrangement of sleek resin filament strewn across weeded floors able to easily hasten the movement of any fellow alien. This allows Aliens to make navigation from the hive to the front (and vice versa) much easier, with no other cost than making the selected space not usable for anything else until destroyed.<br><br />
Though the benefit of speed is somewhat mutual to the marines. Fast resin will not slow the marines down but it won't boost their speed.<br />
|| <br />
* Speeds up down Aliens movement when walking over it.<br />
* Doesn't slow down marines.<br />

Predaliens start off rather weak, somewhat relying on the tankier members of the hive to soak up damage while the Predaliens secures kills and grows in strength. Remember, you deal increased damage to Yautja, and a majority of your abilites will either only work on Yautja, or have increased effects on them.<br />
<br><br><br />
You have a leap ability, useful for avoiding bullets and Yautja's weaponry. Your leap will not stun your opponent, and has a short cooldown, use this to evade enemies while sneaking in slashes.<br />
<br><br><br />
Your roar can be used to bring yautja out of their cloak as they fire at you, allowing you and other xenos to close in and cause severe damage and finish them off<br />
<br><br><br />
Your devastate ability can be used to cause severe damage to a stunned or cornered opponent, causing severe and devastating damage, be ware this ability has a long cooldown and a costs a lot of plasma.<br />
<br><br><br />
Remember, your only form of healing will be from taking the trophies of your victims (though you do still gain plasma on weeds), but this also increases your overall damage. This means you start off weak, but as you gain kills you will become stronger. Remember, you are still a member of the alien hive, work together with them and listen to your queen.<br />

Remember, headhunters will hate you and your existence, and will use every ability in their arsenal to end your existence, they might even work together with marines to kill you. Your abilities work better on headhunters, dealing increased damage to them. If you're being hit from an unknown source, use your roar, it might just be a pesky cloaked headhunter trying to kill you.<br />

==Overview==<br />
----<br />
You are the Predalien, considered a ultimate lifeform composed of the Yautja DNA with the Aliens DNA, creating a strong beast. Kill talls and headhunters to increase your total strength. Headhunters will do their best to terminate you, seeing you as an abomination of a creature, not worthy of life, show them they're wrong.<br />
<br />
You are the fruition of the hives great work to both impregnate a headhunter, and manage to restrain it, this means you are something the hive will want to keep around, after all, if you die, all the work your hive did to make you will be wasted.<br />
<br><br><br />
<br />
== Playing a Predalien ==<br />
----<br />
Predaliens start off rather weak, somewhat relying on the tankier members of the hive to soak up damage while the Predaliens secures kills and grows in strength. Remember, you deal increased damage to Yautja, and a majority of your abilites will either only work on Yautja, or have increased effects on them.<br />
<br><br><br />
You have a leap ability, useful for avoiding bullets and Yautja's weaponry. Your leap will not stun your opponent, and has a short cooldown, use this to evade enemies while sneaking in slashes.<br />
<br><br><br />
Your roar can be used to bring yautja out of their cloak as they fire at you, allowing you and other xenos to close in and cause severe damage and finish them off<br />
<br><br><br />
Your devastate ability can be used to cause severe damage to a stunned or cornered opponent, causing severe and devastating damage, be ware this ability has a long cooldown and a costs a lot of plasma.<br />
<br><br><br />
Remember, your only form of healing will be from taking the trophies of your victims (though you do still gain plasma on weeds), but this also increases your overall damage. This means you start off weak, but as you gain kills you will become stronger. Remember, you are still a member of the alien hive, work together with them and listen to your queen.<br />

==Crusher Tactics==<br />
* Crushers aren't stunned by mines. Use this to your advantage!<br />
* Sentries still pose a significant threat to you, and should not be taken on alone. Even if they're meant for enemy surpression, their bullets easily pierce your armor.<br />
* Flamethrowers are dangerous to you because of your slow movement speed when not charging.<br />
* A direct hit from an armor piercing rocket will put a serious dent in your health!<br />
* Don't die for the wrong reasons. While it is noble and normally doable to shield a critical hive member while they get dragged to safety, it would be a waste for you to die say, shielding a young runner, especially if you both die!<br />
* Start slashing once they've been knocked down. Your slashes deal a good chunk of damage against marines and are applied in an AoE.<br />
* If you know you're going to be charging into somewhere with a sentry or a large group, don't do it on anything other than full health. Remember you will have to get back to safety with potentially multiple angry marines firing at you!<br />
* Team up with other Crushers, pick an approach line, and charge! This wall of solid muscle and rage is enough to send most Marines scattering for cover.</div>Aidenzack1https://cm-ss13.com/w/index.php?title=User:Aidenzack1&diff=17057User:Aidenzack12020-10-09T20:42:08Z<p>Aidenzack1: /* Overview */</p>

Remember, your only form of healing will be from taking the trophies of your victims, but this also increases your overall damage. This means you start off weak, but as you gain kills you will become stronger. Remember, you are still a member of the alien hive, work together with them and listen to their queebn.<br />

==Crusher Techniques==<br />
----<br />
* Hit and Run - Run in, use your stomp, run out again. Useful for when the enemy is behind barricades you cannot break with one charge (plasteel barricades and the like)<br />
* Run em down! - If you hit a marine with your charge, you will knock them flying and cause serious damage. You can use this to take out dangerous individuals, such as [[Squad Smartgunner|smartgunners]] or [[Specialist|M5 RPG users]]. Just be careful they don't dodge your charge and you overextend yourself! You will get chased down ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFJo5-Vzkd0 video]).<br />
* Fuck you sentry! - If you charge into a sentry at high momentum, it will be automatically knocked over, but you will also be stunned. If you've taken a burst from the sentry while charging, you may be at low health, so always do this with backup in case marines guarding the sentry take advantage of your prone state!<br />
<br><br><br />
<br />
==Crusher Tactics==<br />
* Crushers aren't stunned by mines. Use this to your advantage!<br />
* Sentries still pose a significant threat to you, and should not be taken on alone. Even if they're meant for enemy surpression, their bullets easily pierce your armor.<br />
* Flamethrowers are dangerous to you because of your slow movement speed when not charging.<br />
* A direct hit from an armor piercing rocket will put a serious dent in your health!<br />
* Don't die for the wrong reasons. While it is noble and normally doable to shield a critical hive member while they get dragged to safety, it would be a waste for you to die say, shielding a young runner, especially if you both die!<br />
* Start slashing once they've been knocked down. Your slashes deal a good chunk of damage against marines and are applied in an AoE.<br />
* If you know you're going to be charging into somewhere with a sentry or a large group, don't do it on anything other than full health. Remember you will have to get back to safety with potentially multiple angry marines firing at you!<br />
* Team up with other Crushers, pick an approach line, and charge! This wall of solid muscle and rage is enough to send most Marines scattering for cover.</div>Aidenzack1https://cm-ss13.com/w/index.php?title=User:Aidenzack1&diff=17054User:Aidenzack12020-10-09T20:18:15Z<p>Aidenzack1: /* Abilities */</p>

==Overview==<br />
----<br />
You are the Predalien, considered a ultimate lifeform composed of the Yautja DNA with the Aliens DNA, creating a strong beast. Kill talls and headhunters to increase your total strength. Headhunters will do their best to terminate you, seeing you as an abomination of a creature, not worthy of life, show them they're wrong.<br />
<br><br><br />
<br />
== Playing a Predalien ==<br />
----<br />
Predaliens start off rather weak, somewhat relying on the tankier members of the hive to soak up damage while the Predaliens secures kills and grows in strength. Remember, you deal increased damage to Yautja, and a majority of your abilites will either only work on Yautja, or have increased effects on them.<br />
<br><br><br />
You have a leap ability, useful for avoiding bullets and Yautja's weaponry. Your leap will not stun your opponent, and has a short cooldown, use this to evade enemies while sneaking in slashes.<br />
<br><br><br />
<br />
<br><br><br />
One downside to being a Crusher is that you move slower than most. Also, you're a big, juicy target. Marines will try to chase you down. Be sure to use your master of defense ability to soak up those bullets and get outta there.<br />
<br><br><br />
It's a bad idea to go off hunting solo or without support, especially in somewhere without weeds. If you want to run away but marines are chasing you, you'll either have to try and charge away, letting them shoot you during wind up, or just run and hope you can get to safety. Marines run faster than you so it's entirely possible for them to chase you down and end you once you're hurt.<br />
