Odari
The Odari, or "Shardforged" as they are informally known, are a proud and aloof species whose origin has never been confirmed. Their civilisation keeps isolated from the rest of the world, with it's exact location being an ever changing and closely guarded secret.
The Odari live aboard their own city-nation known as Odaria: a massive Sky City of hundreds and hundreds of Sordalite platforms joined together to form one of the most powerful constructions in all of the world. King Odari leads the shardforged as their
eternal ruler. Essentially nomadic, the city-nation of Odaria frequently sends out mining expeditions to find new sources of Sordalite —the only method for creating new shardforged. Odaria is a shining example of a communal society. Every shardforged lives for the others and they
find immense kinship within the confines and unmatched security of the city. Shardforged will often go out on their own adventuring and seek sordalite to send back to their families and the nation for the greater good. It is rare, but a shardforged who has spent considerable time away from Odaria, or who has never been there, has less, or no, kinship for others of their race. Oftentimes it may have the opposite effect when two Shardforged meet and be a point of contention due to their conflicting points of view and upbringings.
They have a strong distrust of everyone different from themselves. This distrust is mainly due to their potential for being used or exploited. They cherish their friendships with other races though, and often seek out these interracial friendships to help themselves grow. Shardforged vary greatly in their personalities, professions, and beliefs that seem to be heavily developed and built from the relationships in their past and present. Shardforged society is truly a mixture of multiple individuals that enjoy different things out of life. They don’t like being referred to as “shardforged.” They prefer to be called Odarian, and often take offense when other races imply that they are just machines and not living beings. Odarians seek employment with any type of organization and will take on any profession or class. They seek to emulate other living creatures that they respect, such as friends. Their ultimate goal is typically to fit in or to find a source of enriched sordalite to start their own family. The Odari despise the use of shard constructs and the myriad other uses that the peoples of the world have for sordalite crystals as each one could have had the potential to create new Odarian life. After use the crystals are never quite the same and are overwhelmingly not pure enough for use by the Odari.
