Ashenforged
Given life with no soul, but imbued with purpose, the ashenforged are one of the greatest achievements since the discovery of the Crucibles. Though no longer the war-bred union they once were, they have instead become a symbol of advancement to their creators and representatives of a larger purpose.
Ashenforged

Belare
A race of energy beings, the belare are thousands of years old. Due to this age only remnants of records still exist, mostly in the form of ancient written texts and carvings. These records describe the belare as the last of several powerful spacefaring races, all long extinct. Today, they interact with society by wearing personalized bio-containment suits.
Belare

Dendus
Formerly enslaved by the Xamaron horde, the dendus are a race of builders instrumental in the advancement of modern day society. Fiercely loyal to their friends and allies, they survive as a people by adapting within the duality of tradition and evolution.
Dendus

Eldori
One half of the former Nesieve people, and one of the oldest of the major races, the eldori are a people whose wisdom and stability are a product of many years of experience and growth. Self-proclaimed guardians of life in the universe, they are often viewed as pompous but well respected nonetheless.
Eldori

Human
One of the newer species to join the Sorium Accord, it is the tendency of humans to explore, investigate, discover, and confront anything and everything they come across. The drive to learn and adapt is what makes them so versatile, and a formidable ally to any world.
Human

Kesh
The kesh are a people bred for exploration. No longer having a world to call home, they have spent centuries living either within the realms of other peoples, or aboard massive starships built to traverse new regions within the infinite expanse.
Kesh

Matokai
The honor-bound Matokai are primarily a race of humanoid lizards, but they also inherit a dual nature, one that binds them to a particular source of primordial energy. They believe themselves to be directly linked to spirits that reside within the energies of the galaxy, guiding all things toward an eventual destiny.
Matokai

Promethean
Originally a part of Earth’s society and culture, these former humans were a community of space explorers and colonists. Adapting themselves through genetic alteration and adopting the name of a figure of legend, they have forged themselves into a new race of beings.
Promethean

Valna
Valna are beasts, first and foremost, with more connection to the creatures of the wild than they would ever have with a human. Technology has become a forced necessity, used at first to stop the threat of genocide. However, their elders take great care to not let these unnatural advancements overtake their habitat and way of life.
