Qvorite

“The Weak shall always fear and serve the Strong, it is the way of things.” —Imperator Valon during the Invasion of Qvora

The Qvorite are a technological advance race of insectoid-like lithoids who evolved on the methane planet Qvora.

Biology
The Qvorite resembles some form of an arachnid with pale almost translucent crystalline carapace. They have no upper manipulative limbs and rely heavily on cybernetics, prosthetics and other species for any serious work. They do however use their mandibles and large chin-like protrusion on their face to interact with their world. They walk or rather scuttle across surfaces with their four long appendages, each ending tip equip with one razor sharp claw. Qvorite bodies are separated into three separate segmentation with breathing spiracles located on the sides of the Abdomen. Unlike most lithoids, the Qvorite breathe gases, requiring methane in order to breathe correctly.

Culture

Qvorite are, if not biologically, haughty in nature. They have no concept of the word humility and tend to believe that their invasions of the lesser races brought “proper civilization” to their worlds. Many surrounding nations considered them elitist snobs and gleefully smiled during their downfall.They are a proud race, even after the rebellion, they still hold fast to their great accomplishments and a far gone golden era. Before the White Revolution, most had slaves and tend rely on them for day to day activities and chores. This over-reliance on slave labor made much of the population lazy, hedonistic and decadent. After the revolt most were lost on what to do to keep the nation running, ushering in a dark age for the rump state.
