Azrak
Azraky are a humanlike race that despise emotions and have a
natural ability to hide them behind a facade of pure logic. The
race is called the Azraks, individual name Azraky.
They are basically humans in phsysiology that have lived
planetbound for too long. In their early history wars were
common and once were about to destroy the planet. When all was
lost someone stumbled into the solution. Izrak, for whom the
planet is named, found a way to stop the wars by creating the
"Logic Principle". The principle allows the Azraky to control
all of their emotion and act with logic, closely resembling an
android. Without emotions there is not need to wage war.
For six hundred years the system had worked and society become
stratified. The ones who could follow the logic principle better
become the ruling elite. The ones that have problems following
the Principle become the workers. The ones that could not follow
them are exiled or executed as a threat to society. If they are
exiled their left arm is ritually cut off as a sign that he can
never return to the planet.
The race isolation ended 500 hundred years ago when the ships
of the empire came. They easily conquered the planet as the
natives lacked space technology beyond that wich was needed to
reach the outer planet of the system. After the conquest the
empire quickly found uses for the logical nature of the Azraks.
They soon began travelling to other planets as advisors. Izrak
become a crossroads planet and a great space station was put
into orbit: The Darago Ix (Logic Principle in Azraky).
The race was governed by descendants of Izrak but had to
switch to a protectorate of the empire. After the empire fell
the old system was reinstated by popular demand. The current
ruler is Her Most Logic majesty Izrana the third.
As was explained society is divided in castes. The "Ix" or
Logics are the higher caste. They are the only ones that may
leave the planet and hold the important jobs. They also own all
of the land. The "Jara Ix" or quasi logical follow the Ix. They
have the middle echelon ranks and compose the military. The
"Ima Awa" the poor ones are those that can barely reach the
Logic Principle. They have the worst jobs and live virtually as
slaves of the Ix, but never revolt as the Principle dictates
that they follow the Ix commands.
Male and Female have the same oportunities. Logic dictates
that marriages are arranged to get the best for the potential
child. Families are cold and unemotional and children are placed
into the hands of the state for education into the Logic
Principle when they turn two. Entertainment is virtually unheard
of but the planet is not a police state.
The Darago Ix is the only orbital Space Station of the entire
planet and is a symbol of the goverment. Usually
