Culture
Tochun Society and culture revolve around strength and war. Their planet before the Breen invasion was always racked by warfare and no generation was born without some large war going on. They tend to respect strong opponents and jump at the chance for a challenge based on strength. Tochun during this time were savages using blunt and serrated melee weapons to severely injure their enemies. When they were conquered however, the Tochun were forced to curtail their aggressiveness if they wanted to serve as warriors. After their independence, the Tochun had kept this restriction with them as they fought the in Civil War but still kept melee weapons on person as a last resort when they ran out of ammo.
