History
The Orokin were a race of humans that came to establish a powerful empire that dominated the Origin System.
Overview
The Orokin held seven virtues to be of utmost importance, collectively known as the Seven Principles.
They were said to had built their sovereignty on a culture of art, technology and architecture. From their architecture and relics, it was determined that they were obsessed with splendor, luxury, beauty, and excess.
Economic practices such as capitalism were viewed with suspicion for their potential to raise individuals beyond the class of their birth.
Social repression took many forms including; restricting access to technology and resources, forcible genetic manipulation and even seizure of children from their homes to be sold off in Yuvan markets.
Orokin society was highly stratified, with only those at the very top being regarded as actual Orokin.
A judicial body within their empire was a council known as the Seven.
Other classes included the Archimedeans (scientists and scholars), the Lorists (healers), the Sectarus (navigators or ship operators) and the Enginus.
The Orokin constructed a caste of genetically engineered slaves to serve their most basic industrial and military needs, while the rest of the empire was made up of less wealthy and advanced populations performing technological and economic services.
A small conclave of warriors known as the Dax served as the Orokin's most elite soldiers. The Dax were enhanced with technology to be more lethal and agile in combat, while also made mentally unable to disobey their masters.
A particular ritual practiced by the Orokin was the Continuity that gave them effective immortality. It allowed one of their kind to transfer their consciousness to another's body by filling them with torment and despair until the host was nothing more than an empty husk.
