The Ixvapyans | The Ixvapyans are a warrior type race that base their classifications on the desire and development of their people to a given area of expertise, much like Starfleet in some aspects as there are Warlords, Healers, Architects, Engineers and such. The [[Confederacy of Core Worlds]] at times has hired the Ixvapyans for matters of war, but condemn the race and the potential warlords in youth are hunted down during the '''Journey''' phase of their youth. | ||
Due to the ink dye the race uses in their tribal markings through several generations, their physiology has been altered to allowing the race to elude most of the conventional sensor technologies. Reports have suggested they can move through walls, or perhaps appear unexpectedly. Little is known about the race, aside from the fact that their skin is richly embellished on coverable areas with tattoos. They are tall, bald and black skinned. | |||

Ixvapyans are | Ixvapyans are relatively unknown. Their space ship captains are entitled Warlords. Unlike the Grendallai, however, it is suspected that, wherever the Ixvapyan homeworld is, there is a thriving society. There have been faint hints of a culture behind members of the species. | ||

Ixvapyans are a long-lived race, children do not come of age until after 50 Suns and Moons into their juvenile years, which adds another 50 Suns and Moons. An Ixvapyan reaches adulthood at 100 Suns and Moons. It is unknown exactly how long an Ixvapyan lives, although the guess is somewhere between 300 to 400 years. | |||

At somewhere near 50 Suns and Moons, Ixvapyans undergo their Trial, depending on their interest and where their inherit talent lies. Potential Warlords are trained on the jungle planet of [[Skrizvypai]]. Healers and Architects have their own Trial which determines the path of the particular Ixvapyan. | |||
===Warlords=== | |||
The path of a Warlord is distinguished by the '''Journey''' each individual candiate undertakes, deposited far from the Ixvapyan systems and left to find their way back to their race. Warlords undergo a fierce '''Trial''' to determine their worthiness before being dumped in some area of space well beyond the borders and left to fend for themselves. Often times potential Ixvapyan warlords are hunted down and killed by other members of the Core Worlds, greatly feared and hated. A Warlord commands an Ixvapyan warship for the race, either protecting the systems or hired to initiate war by another race. | |||

The Ixvapyan Cluster is composed of seven systems within an undisclosed area of the [[Ithassa Region]]. One System is dedicated solely to training facilities while the homeworld, Ixvapya, resides within another system. | |||
