Fiction:Vanara Nomads

 We will endure. 

Early History
The Vanara are relatively new to the Milky Way having seemingly just appeared in space on their three world ships(Leviathan, Behemoth, and Ziz). Since then they spent most of their time scavenging resources and technologies left behind by other empires. Their first war was the shadow war against a race know as the Demonica, which resulted in victory for the Vanra, and the assimilation of the remaining Demonica into the Vanara group mind, and eventually into the Vanara species as a whole, resulting in a new breed of Vanarra. The Vanara then spent the rest of their time fighting the Central and Axis pirate fleets, which had been raiding Vanara systems. The two pirate fleets were never fully destroyed, but were completely forced out of Vanarra space. The Vanara were once isolationist, only contacting other empire when they felt like it and destroying without question any alien ships found in their space, thou recently they joined the Unified Alliance of Enlightenment.

Return of THEM
The Vanara joined in the war against Ada and his force with the rest of the UAE attacking from space, though not powerful enough keep up the assault for long, they proved to be a signifigent thorn in Ada's side. Once they actually started to annoy Ada, he did send the Infectants and Omega Grox to Leviathan in order to deal with the Vanara. However, the Vanara managed to push back the invaders, and with new strength, continued to attack Ada's armies, eventually destroying him with the aid of rest of the UAE.

Current Status
The Vanara are currently assisting the rest of the UAE in the rebuilding of the alliance's home world of Matrukoris after it was ripped in two by Ada.

Government
Other then the group mind the Vanara have a form of loose hereditary monarchy. Members of the royal family are trained then selected for pacific leadership roles with in Vanaran society. The monarchy acts more like a fixed point for the group mind to centralize on rather then a major part of the decision making process. Other then the monarchy various other types of leaders help maintain Vanarrn society. There are Masters who train their students in whatever martial arts technique they specialize in, Generals and various other high ranking military figures, as well as community, religious, and other forms of leadership also act as centralization points for the group mind.

Structure

 * Emperor, Empress-Governs over the entire empire.
 * King, Queen-Governs over a zone(30 to 50 systems).
 * Duke, Duchess-Governs over a sector(10 systems).
 * Lord, Lady-Governs over a prefect(5 systems).
 * Baron, Baroness-Governs over a system.
 * Count, Countess-Governs over a planet.
 * Governor, Governess-Governs over a region.
 * Mayor-Governs over a city or colony.

Religion
The Vanara religion revolves around the belief in the 9 beasts. The legend says that a long time ago there was a guardian deity called Mana which ruled over the Vanara, but then one day a terrible beast called Tachi invaded the Varnaran homeworld. After a huge battle Mana defeated Tachi, split his body into nine pieces, and scattered them across the planet. However Mana was severely weakened and the nine pieces of Tachi had adapted to the environments that they had landed in and grown into new monsters, they were Ouni the Lord of Darkness, Giri the Beast of Earth, Ur-Yi the Water Creature, Qual the Space Monster, Githra the Void Horror, Warjeth the Time Being, Kari the Air Serpent, Jura the Fire Dragon, and Viz the Light Master. The Void Horror Githra was so powerful it threatened to destroy the planet until the space and time beasts Qual and Warjeth sacrificed themselves to trap their sibling. The beasts of light, Viz, and darkness, Ouni, neutralized each other in combat. The fire dragon Jura defeated the air, water, and earth monsters, Kari, Ur-Yi, and Giri and took their powers. Mana fought and was defeated by Jura, but not before purifying the monster's soul and making it the new guardian of the Vanarra. The homeworld was devastated though and the Vanara were forced to leave. However it is said that one day Githra will escape from its prison and Jura must take on the powers of light, darkness, space, and time and defeat Githra forever.

For the Vanara the world is not defined by good and evil, order and chaos, virtue and sin. Instead it is defined by Libido and Destrude. Libido is the desire to live, the source of all endeavors, while Destrude is selfdestruction. Colors have perticular meaning for the Vanara, red rpersents passion, blue repersents control, yellow repersents sickness, orange repersents hope, green is life, purple is greatness, white is rejection and destrude, and black repersents acceptence and libido. The beasts in the legend that the Vanara religion revolves aroud also have symbolic meaning. Mana and Tachi both represent veiws of world devision the Vanara find primitive. Mana represents good, order, virtue, and other "good" things, where as Tachi represents evil, chaos, sin and other "bad" things. The rest of the beasts repersent similar primitive views representing a virtue and a vice. Ouni is Charity and Wrath, Giri is Patience and Sloth, Ur-Yi is Chastity and Lust, Qual is Diligence and Greed, Warjeth is Temperance and Gluttony, Kari is Kindness and Envy, Viz is Humility and Pride. Githra and Jura are the most inportent, Githra representing Destrude and Jura repersenting Libido.

Technology
For more in depth look see here Most of the technology the Vanarra have was scavenged or stolen from other races. They are experts at genetic engineering and nanotech. One of the best and most feared examples of this is their ability to construct giant, radioactive beasts called Daikaiju which are used for invasion and terraforming. They are also known for their extremely effective cloaking devices. The Vanara mostly use nuclear spin reactors for power, though various forms of biofuel as well. Accel drives are used for propulsion and most weapons are plasma based.

Biology
For more in depth look see here The Vanara are Boron based life forms and are completely composed of other radioactive materials. As a result most, if not all, planet are completely uninhabitable. Which is why they use Daikaiju to terraform, because the creatures very bodily excrement's can increases a planet radioactive material levels by ten percent every year. The Vanara are themselves highly radioactive, and its dangerous for most other species to be near them(which is part of the reason why the are so isolationist). The Vanara also have a metamorphic lifestyle only the first cat like stage has ever been witnessed, only glimpses of the second have been seen and what is described is a dragon like creature with a brightly glowing body, which is referred to as Keizer. The known stages are Vanara first form, and Keizer. There is evidence of a third stage thought it is highly dubious. The Vanara have a group mind, meaning their minds are connected, but they retain individual personalities, the connection grows stronger the more close the relationship between individuals, meaning once relationships are established they are nearly impossible sever. The Vanara do however have certain weaknesses, such as extreme cold, certain high pitched noises, and can quit literally meltdown and explode if deprived of radioactive materials for too long.

Culture
They Vanara are a rude and fierce culture, ritualistic disfigurement, cannibalism (they don't just take uncle Murphy and pop him in a pot mind you), and head hunting are common practices amongst the Vanara. Cannibalism is done as a way to honor dead relatives and gain their strength by eating them. Disfigurement is done as a way of making oneself more attractive, as scares and what not are considered beautiful, though missing limbs and crippling wounds are considered over doing it. Head hunting is done for fun and as a way of gaining statis, and is only done on none spacefaring races within Vanara territory. Other then these things Vanarra are quite open to new ideas and self expression.

Family
Vanara do not have much in the way of fixed families. They don't even believe in marriage. The closet thing they get to marriage is mating, most Vanara don't even mate however, due to Vanara mating being a highly complex process that results in the death of the two individuals if they don't fully love and trust each other, and because most chose to have children for other reasons then love(there are expiations though) most children are born via artificial insemination. Though for the most part fathers don't raise their children, or even stick around(once again there are exceptions) the bond between mother and child are exceptionally strong. Though most Vanara children receive some pretty tough love, their mothers are highly protective, an old saying is "get between a mother and her child and you won't even leave a smear". As children grow up they tend to leave their mothers side, though the bond remains as strong as ever, and form families with close friends.

Language
The Vanara do not have a language like most other races. Their language mostly consists of flashes of light created by natural bioluminescence in certain patterns to form the equivalent of words, they use certain sounds to express emotion, and changes of body posture to express intent. The group mind is more for organize and coordinate the Vanara rather then serve as a means of communication. There are a few what could be called words though, these are mostly names of people, places, and things, as well as Vanara vulgarities( swear words). The Vanara's written language is done in a similar way with colors and patterns used to make words and letters. Most members of the UAE do have genetical enhancements to understand Vanara "language", and some even have the enhancements to produce it themselves.

Military
Their current military size is 15 thousand ships. All Vanara ships are technorganic and are designed to be fast, durable, and stealthy. Most of their ships weaponry is primitive, but highly effective, "just point in the enemy's general direction and fire" is the what most cadets are tolled during training. The Vanara's most dangerous weapon are Diakaiju, massive, highly aggressive, extremely radioactive beast. Daikaiju are extremely hard to kill due to their high regeneration rate, thick armor plated hides, and their tendency to exploded when killed, in a blast that can get big enough to level an entire city. Daikaiju are also capable of during an entire planet into a radioactive wasteland inhabitable only by Vanara, which is why sometimes the threat of using Daikaiju is often enough to cause hostile races to back of and leave the Vanara alone. Daikaiju are hardly ever used though because of how time and resource consuming creating them is, also once the Daikaiju are done the entire planetary ecosystem must be reconstructed an even more time and resource consuming task, as well as major damage to the planet itself, so they are mainly used as "A weapon that's mostly pointed rather then fired" to quote Vanara tactions. "Though its a weapon were not afraid to use" is another quote used. Vanarra have recently begun training ground troops called Karpver (such troops were not trained in the past since most battles in their to previse wars were done mostly with ships and Daikaiju) named after the Karpver guns they wield, Karpver guns use small almost nano sized bullets that expand and burst into flame on contact with atmosphere with incredible force. Karpver with their group mind coordinating them and their tendency to enter a berserker rage are a force to be reckoned with. Both regular and Keizer Vanara are trained as Karpver.

Relations
The Vanara generally look down on other races, referring to them as infidel beings, though there are those who they trust and are fiercely loyal to them. They have little regard for galactic law, such as the galactic code, being at the best dismissive of such things and at worst going out of their way to defy such laws. They except the laws of the Unified Alliance of Enlightenment, albeit grudgingly. Though since most of the UAE's laws are similer to their own values they mostly do this just to be disagreeable (which is strangly a form of respect).
