Qani-Ordo

The Ordo are humanoids with a tall and slender physique, but possess very muscular bodies due to rigorous training. The Ordo have a yellow, green or brown coloration to their skin and black, sunken eyes. Their skulls are angular and elongated, with flat noses, which gives them an alien appearance. Commonly, they had black, gray or dark brown hair. The Ordo were seen as intense, and fanatical in their beliefs. In their societies, they are commonly seen as patient, understanding and philosophical. The Ordo are quiet, mentally strong, and has a thirst for knowledge. They often work as teachers, spiritual guides or wise sages. Before the Black Eclipse, they were slaves in service to a race they call the Zenithians, together with the Qani-Atrox. At that time, the leaders of their society, called Atrox and Ordo, eventually led a rebellion against their masters. In the wake of their victory, Atrox suggested they hunt down the remaining survivors of their fleeing masters and establish an empire built on conquest, while Ordo argued that this would make them just as cruel as their former slavers. This disagreement led to a violent civil war, which in turn led to Ordo’s death. Atrox, in turn, brought her followers to establish a new settlement, where they could gather their strength in order to resume their plans of conquering and exterminating their former masters. The conflict between the two factions continued until the event of the Black Eclipse, and the two groups remain bitter enemies to this day.
