Domians

Description
The Domians are the current race residing on the planet Domus. Created by the Forefathers as part of an experiment in biological growth, the Domians inherited the planet Domus after their creators left the planet in the wake of the Life-Eater Virus. Much smaller than the Forefathers, and immune to the terrible effects of the virus, the Domians were left in the hope they would terraform the planet and leave it inhabitable again by the previous residents, who currently inhabit The Arc deep in space.

History
Created by the Forefathers just before they were nearly extinguished by the viral outbreak the Domians were originally intended to be a new breakthrough in the development of advanced artificial biological life.

Technology
The different factions of Domians have different levels of technology and all treat they technology they posses very differently.

The Azarr Congregation treat the technology they have as revered relics and religious items of incredible significance. The desecration or misuse of any relics they have is considered a grave crime and can very easy carry the penalty of death. Whilst they do hold religious significance to their technology, they are not afraid to use what they have in order to achieve their goals and being remnants of the first Domian empire on the planet, have the largest collection of relics and technological marvels left over by the Forefathers.

Stratia Administration handles relics they find very differently from the Azarr. Relics they find or acquire are not revered in the same sense, though still held with high esteem. They have a desire to build and expand on what they have and often try to research how the relics work so they can build their own. This invariably leads to them occasionally damaging or even destroying relics as they attempt to reverse engineer, an act considered heretical in the extreme to their main adversary, the Azarr.

The Technocrats Guild is a very small faction that operates on the planets surface rather than from a Praeter. Similar to the Stratia Administration, they will happily reverse engineer relics they find to discover their secrets and unlock technological mysteries lost to their race. Their success has been far greater than any other faction however and they spend their entire existence seeking out and recovering relics to work on. They are by far the most advanced faction on Domus, but due to the very small population of the Guild, are more of a bother than a real threat.
