One must learn to forgive and move on. I am glad the races of Cyrannus understand this; the Trucinex went from being enemies of the Republic to being the Republic.

- Tarygan Tersly

The Trucinex are a species of draconic reptilians native to the Cyrannian Outer Rim world of Nex. A moralistic and deeply spiritual species, the Trucinex came to Gigaquadrantic attention during the Trucinex War in 11 BNE, resulting in the defeat of the fanatical Trucinex Imperium and the division of Trucinex space between the allied powers.

With the exception of the period in which they were overseen by the fanatical Nex Prophet, the Trucinex are generally a peaceful and accomodating species, believing that all life in the cosmos has a role in a grand plan by a higher being known as the One God. In the decades after the end of the Trucinex War, their religious beliefs have spread beyond their space, while various Trucinex have ascended to high positions of galactic power, such as Nexarón Valkistair, who became the second President of the New Republic in 07 NE.

History[]

Evolving on the Outer Rim world Nex, the Trucinex united early in their history, bond together by a shared faith in a being they named the One God. Dating back to time immemorial, the people of Nex found spiritual leadership in a succession of religious leaders known as the Nex Prophets, elected through conclaves upon the death of a prophet. Although the Trucinex reached spacefaring capabilities in 1480 BNE, their unofficial first contact with the wider galaxy occured millenia before, when fleets loyal to the First Republic, during the reign of the controversial Praesator Riantontine I in 37,280 BNE, launched a barbaric attack on the tribal people of Nex.

Although the attack was halted upon the intervention of the Miluiel, the invasion of the "Star Strangers", as the Trucinex came to call them, lived on through folk memory for centuries to come. By 1480 BNE, the planet had united under the leadership of the Nex Prophet LXIII, who inaugurated the Trucinex Imperium as the space-faring polity of the people of Nex and her colonies. Within a century, these colonies included influential worlds such as Nexios, Luminox and Laorox, all of which contributed to the wealth of prestige of the Imperium.

Although wary of external influences on their culture, contact with alien civilisations such as the Aontas and the Condan were relatively peaceful, although when first contact was made by Corai explorers blazing the Corai Way hyperlane in 77 BNE, a schism in Trucinex society appeared. Databanks recovered from a captured Corai vessel revealed the true nature of the "Star Strangers" eons ago as the predessecors of the United Republic of Cyrannus, prompting a considerable segment of the Imperium's society to call for a crusade of their own. With the election of the Nex Prophet CCXII in 72 BNE, these desires were solidified.

Battle of Orbispira Trucinex War

The Trucinex War saw the introduction of extragalactic powers to Cyrannian affairs in 11 BNE.

A vast war machine was prepared at the shipyards of Laorox, while all Federation vessels approaching Trucinex space were fired upon. Simultaneously, Trucinex society became increasingly militant and zealous under the Nex Prophet's stewardship, who prepared his people for a future campaign to conquer the hated Core Worlders. These preparations culminated in 11 BNE with the outbreak of the Trucinex War. Utilising state-of-the-art stealth technology, a vast fleet of Trucinex Basestars began a long journey into the Core Worlds, and began a brutal orbital bombardment of the Twelve Worlds of the Libertus.

Although the fleet was eventually pushed back by the Capricorn Sector Alliance, the Imperium simultaneously launched an invasion of the Republic's Mid Rim territories, resulting in the fall of Arran'lenor and the capitulation of the Sylvamiman homeworld of Sympan. Although Trucinex forces possessed superior military might, the Nex Prophet did not foresee the involvement of the Capricorn Sector Alliance's new extragalactic allies. Vast fleets hailing from the Plazithian Delpha Coalition of Planets and the Quadrantian Rambo Nation reinforced the Libertus, increasing their manpower a hundred fold.

Eventually, the war came to an end in the skies above Nex itself, resulting in the death of the Nex Prophet and the division of the Nex Sector into administrative zones overseen by the three allied powers. In the years which followed, the DCP abandoned their rule over the Trucinex, with the planet falling under the jurisdiction of the United Republic of Cyrannus, represented in the Senate by Senator Cavil of Trucinio. The colony of Nexios would remain under Rambo rule, becoming one of the most successful trade outposts along the Corai Way. With the establishment of the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus, the Trucinex as a people fell under Imperial rule, represented by Mandator Nenabie.

ValkistairInauguration

Valkistair is inaugurated as President of the New Republic in 08 NE.

Imperial rule over the Trucinex was shaken in 03 NE, when the Xeranbha orchestrated an outbreak of the dreaded Purity virus on Nex. During the disaster which followed, Nenabie was killed, and the planet's government overtaken by the mad scientist Orthonex, who mutated scores of his own people into the dreaded "Viralnex" abominations. Although the Empire ultimately annihilated the infestation, millions had been killed, and the planet damaged considerably. Across the galaxy, Trucinex refugees from the days prior to the Trucinex War, had grown in influence, highlighted by the election of Nexarón Valkistair to the office of President of New Republic in 07 NE. Although Valkistair was killed in the Mou'Cyran Cataclysm in 15 NE, he would be remembered as a hero among his people, and by the Republic at large.

Trucinex space remained under Imperial control for the next two decades, and was ultimately liberated by the New Republic in 23 NE. The Trucinex have since flourished as valued Republic members.

Characteristics[]

Biology[]

The Trucinex are a species of bipedal reptilians with a set of powerful wings that evolved on the watery world of Nex, in the Outer Rim of Cyrannus. The Trucinex were successful hunters in prehistoric times and their vast intelligence contributed considerably to their culture when they became sentient, using their power over flight to quickly spread across Nex. The Trucinex, as a species, are quite immune to many diseases, however no immunity presented itself when they were corrupted into mindless monsters known as the Viralnex, by the so-called Purity Virus of the Xeranbha. The Trucinex are known for their tremendous strength, being able to hurl enemy soldiers to their deaths with their bare hands during the Trucinex War.

The Trucinex, on average, stand 3.77 meters above the ground, making them tall even in comparison to other Cyrannian lifeforms such as the Libertus. Nevertheless, they fail to reach the heights of the gigantic four meter tall Mortalitas. Nevertheless, to an enemy the Trucinex are quite imposing and were a figure of fear throughout the Gigaquadrant for many years in the aftermath of the Trucinex War.

Culture[]

In the years prior to, and during, the Trucinex War, Trucinex society and culture was influenced by an extreme devotion to the One God through the leadership of the Church of the One and its chosen leader, the Nex Prophet. The Church of the One taught a particular interpretation of the One God subsequently known as the Pure Essence theory, whereby the One God represents the purity of the essence of the cosmos. Although the Trucinex believed that this One God was a benevolent force and that everything occurs according to its design, the religion was perverted by Nex Prophet CCXII into one of militancy and religious extremism. Subsequent to the war, while most Trucinex retain a faith in the One God, they shun the legacy of the Nex Prophet as destructive and barbaric.

Individuals[]

Nerazachi

They have sullied the name of our galaxy. Once Cyrannus was synonymous with peace, democracy and cooperation but now thanks to that detestable Empire, we are thought of as conquerors and deceivers. I swear to you this; the Republic will aid you in this struggle and reclaim the honour of our home.

Nerazachi is a male Trucinex who served with the Navy of the United Republic of Cyrannus during the Great Cyrannus War, the fleet of the Republic in Exile during the Dark Times and currently, the Navy of the New Cyrannian Republic. Nerazachi is a master tactician and a cunning master of war and currently commands his venerable Venator-class Star Destroyer Allecto in the service of the Republic and the Pax Infinitus Armada of the Mou'Cyran Accords.

Valkistair

Let us not doubt the future of our democracy. The people of the Republic shall not fail, we shall never give into darkness.

Nexarón Valkistair was a male Trucinex that served as the second President of the New Galactic Republic of Cyrannus, from 08 NE to 15 NE. The first Trucinex to hold such a high office in galactic governance, the election of Valkistair was considered by historians to mark the final reconciliation between the Trucinex and the races of the galactic interior since the end of the Trucinex War. Re-elected in 09 NE, 11 NE and in 13 NE, Valkistair has consistently been regarded as one of the popular politicians in recent Cyrannian history, he perished on Mou'Cyran on the eve of the Second Great Cyrannus War, when the Empire destroyed the planet with the Cyrannic Imperial Battlestation. His death, and that of much of the Senate, sent the Republic into turmoil.

CaptainTohon

My duty is the Republic and her people

Nexul Tohon is a male Trucinex who serves in the Starfleet of the New Cyrannian Republic. Nexul was a young boy when the Trucinex War raged on his homeworld of Nex, but the events of the battle left him scarred for life—forging within him a strong distaste for war and the ruination it can visit upon thousands of years of culture and civilisation. Growing up with a strong sense of moral duty, he took it upon himself to help prevent another conflict of such a devastating scale. During the Second Battle of Lianna, his neck was snapped by Lady Astrosia after he refused to surrender the station to the Empire.
