A noble and free people, the Dokkarans value and embody harmony. Disputes among individuals never end in violence, science and religion exist in tandem and with very few laws governing their highly democratic society, and people are largely free to do as they please. 'Follow your bliss' is a common phrase among the Dokkarans (Lifted from mythologist Joseph Campbell, who Lieutenant Dell admired)and to them means that though many of them share the same memories at birth, it was what one does with these experiences and what new ones they have that define them. All are encouraged to seek their own path in the universe, and make something of themselves that sets them apart from others. The Dokkaran concept of 'Harmony through diversity' is the focal point of their society, which preaches that only through diversity and a free exchange of ideas, concepts and emotions can they as a people evolve. | A noble and free people, the Dokkarans value and embody harmony.

===Language=== | |||
Dokkarans speak two languages, though arguably only one is complete. One is a dialect of Romanian, the other is an ancient language with no known grammatical rules and mostly filled with nouns. Dokkaran names come from the later language and are extremely complex. A simple four letter name can have a sentence long meaning. This more than compensates for being a mononymous people. | |||
