Homebrew Chor'zoi Species Details

  “The Chor’zoi? Ugly bastards, for sure. But they’ve saved our asses more than once. When you see a Chor’zoi battleship cut through the clouds and save the day, you’ll see them in a new light. Gods forbid you ever piss ‘em off though. You won’t have any friends in this universe if you’re being hunted by the Chor’zoi. None that can help you, anyway”.-Masaiva Silko, Immortal of the CAS Red Dragon 

A Mutant Species

The Chor’zoi, through forced evolution by an unknown benefactor, went from tribal nomads to colonists of the furthest stars. Stout, independent and benevolent to all except their aggressors, they own many habitable worlds and moons, all led by the High Council on their homeworld of Chor’zin. They take no slaves and do no evil, but should they be slighted, there is no place in the universe to hide from their vengeful wrath. There grows division with their society, between those secular and those who believe their uplifters were Gods, and between those who believe in universal peace and those who believe the species should take more militaristic action towards other empires. Nonetheless, the Chor’zoi stand proud and strong. All that matters to others is which side of a Chor’zin slug rifle they stand on.
