'''Nobility of Action:''' Dokkarans see it as their duty to be the purveyors of peace and equality wherever they go, only calm and wise actions will bring the best outcome, though one must act in order to affect change. Unlike so many aspirant peacekeepers, the Dokkarans are not above violence (Limited violence though) to affect the change they want to see in the world, though this violence must be backed up by a sure conviction of what is right. | '''Nobility of Action:''' Dokkarans see it as their duty to be the purveyors of peace and equality wherever they go, only calm and wise actions will bring the best outcome, though one must act in order to affect change.

Mutual Altruism: Besides bringing peace, the Dokkarans also disparage social boundaries and believe that everyone within a society must be giving towards one another. If one member of the group breaks a leg and cannot walk, others are obliged to carry him, however the cripple must in turn carry the weight of another should a similar incident occur. One cannot expect kindness and not give it in return. | '''Mutual Altruism:''' Besides bringing peace, the Dokkarans also disparage social boundaries and believe that everyone within a society must be giving towards one another.

The Beauty of All: Every piece of matter in the universe has a purpose, perhaps not one that is immediately identifiable or fundamentally good, but never the less, everything has a purpose. Supernovas may kill but they also seed the cosmos with new life in the form of carbon. A child’s death, though tragic, is the Final Call of the Goddess, and while they may be gone from this world, they are in a better place and should not be mourned, only fondly remembered for the role they played and not the one they could have. | '''The Beauty of All:''' Every piece of matter in the universe has a purpose, perhaps not one that is immediately identifiable or fundamentally good, but never the less, everything has a purpose.

Understanding Through Experience: Dokkarans believe that only through encountering and experiencing as much as possible can one understand the Universe around them. Dokkarans are born with a spirit for adventure and many (Nearly all) journey off world at some point in their lives for a period of time to experience the greater galaxy. When they return, they will link with the Lady and transfer these experiences onto the next generation of Dokkarans, therefor enriching not only themselves but those that come after. | '''Understanding Through Experience:''' Dokkarans believe that only through encountering and experiencing as much as possible can one understand the Universe around them.

Spiritual Enlightenment: Dokkarans believe in an Unnamed Goddess and that she is the Dokkaran representation of an even greater intelligence. Dokkarans believe that one cannot fundamentally understand this intelligence, but can learn to understand their work (The Universe and it’s inhabitants) through prayer and meditation. Religious zealotry is common among the Dokkarans and while they are non-violent and love the exchange of ideas between faiths (Believing that all religions worship a different form of the same deity) they do not take kindly to non-believers questioning the legitimacy of their faith, though they show a very wise and even measured hand to those who do not believe but seek to understand, embodying the 4th trait of Harmony, Understanding Through Experience. | '''Spiritual Enlightenment:''' Dokkarans believe in an Unnamed Goddess and that she is the Dokkaran representation of an even greater intelligence.
