Overview

Soghun have a reptilian appearance with a height similar to humans, with males being somewhat taller. Coloration tends to be a green, but can also have hues of blue, brown, and yellow. Claws of about one inch in length on toes and fingers. They have five toes and five fingers.

Heart chambers are on separate sides of the torso, giving an illusion of two heartbeats, with ribs in an overlapping plate design. They have one row of straight, sharp teeth, that are an off-white color, if maintained correctly. Their tongue is long, forked, black at the base, red at the tip, and is semi-prehensile. They have a limb length tail, with muscles strong enough to only lift up at the base of it, the rest stays drooping. Despite the similarity to bipedal saurians, the Soghun are actually cold-blooded. They are also primarily carnivorous, deriving little to no nutrition from plant matter beyond taste.

Diet

The Soghun diet consists of heavily spiced meats and fish, served with grain. Fruits and other plants of the like are considered a dessert dish, as Soghun don't absorb nutrients from plants, but can still tolerate digestion.

Naming

In-game, names are generally of a somewhat African naming nature, namely of the Igbo tribe. Use of the letters S, E, and I are common. Introductions are done last name first, then the first name. This is to give respect to the clan of their belonging.

Mechanics

Instead of punching, Soghun scratch people when unarmed, dealing a higher amount of brute damage than a human punch.

Soghun have good heat resistance, but very little cold resistance. As a result, they cannot go into space (even with EVA gear).

Soghun have a unique language that only they can speak and understand. However, it cannot be used over radio channels. Use :o to speak this language as a Soghun

Due to their digitigrade leg structure, claws and tails, Soghun cannot wear any form of shoes or gloves (with the exception on insulated gloves). Use of 'softsuits' (such as firesuits and bio-gear) is permitted, but full-on EVA gear (hardsuits, space suits) is not.

Background

Home Planet

Soghuns fare from the planet Moghes, a desert planet with tropical coasts, and temperate reigons near the ice-caps.

Society

Soghun generally live in groupings of adobe buildings, the higher class living in the relics of a past civilization dubbed 'the ancients.' Religion is based off of gatherings from these relics. Several key points of the religion are the objectivation of women, and the discouraging of ranged weapons.

Soghun Society Castes:

  • Council Head
  • Council member
  • Council associate
  • Honor Guard
  • Military
  • Peon

Exiles working for NT fall outside of this structure.

Outcasts

A person dubbed an outcast or exile is branded with a crescent, and exiled from whichever city-state they reside in. There is a large enough grouping of outcasts and rebels to have a considerable force, but they remain largely unorganized due to multiple conflicting goals among leading individuals.

Sexism

Although most religious texts state women are to be in domestic lives, many smaller villages still have females in the local militia, due to either need, or generally not minding their presence in it. Many wives of governing figures are also advisors to them. A position of 'archivist' is reserved especially for women, in record keeping, and most in the medical profession are female.

Warfare

War was common in the history of Moghes and is deeply ingrained into Soghun religion. War was fought for thousands of years between different warring clans, until a larger control began to appear on the planet, eventually establishing a worldwide Overlord. Warlords are appointed by the Overlord, and act as the equivalent of presidents to countries in Human terms. Elected officials act as mayors to towns, with towns being held onto with a military grasp by various warlords, who made sure everything was in line.

Formally, Soghun find lethal randged weapons dishonourable. A quote from a Soghun religious text, "To kill an equal being from a distance is to be dishonored." This rule generally pertains to an organized military, and with lethal weapons. Many militias and hunters use bows, and more rarely, crossbows, for their work.

Exploration

Soghun have access to space-faring vehicles, but currently express no interest in large-scale exploration.

Relations With NanoTrasen

Soghun relation with NT is generally stable, trade and immigration being established. The outcast groups are generally willing to sell whatever knowledge and energy (technically radiation) weapon technology they have to the highest bidder.
