Type of Government: Clan empire

Description of Government: 
All clans have a clan lord which they call the Dragon. As the strongest of them all, the Dragon ensures that his clan prospers from agricultural to military might, as well as oversees the development of the clan itself, directing research and priorities. Such can be carried out as long as he stays the leader, but once the Dragon has been found wanting or weak , he can be challenged by anyone who deems themselves capable of potentially succeeding him. Once defeated, only exile or death awaits him; but if he wins, not only will he stay in power but he will also gain more followers and favors from the clan itself. Once he acquires a certain amount of favors, it will be possible to challenge the nearby Dragons. Victory is rewarded by a follower (AKA the defeated Dragon). If he chooses to spare them, he will get his enemies’ clan and will proceed to the next which is the Dragon War chief.

Once War chief, he will be able to challenge the other dragons or officials of equal rank. Victory propels him while defeat lowers his territories, followers and favors. Once favors run out, he will lose the title of War chief, forcing him to start from square one. Yet if he continues to earn consecutive victories and get 10 clans under his rule, he will be able to challenge the strongest in that part of the world, the one they call the Dragon lord. Defeating the powerful Dragon lord gives him complete rule of that part of the world, while losing permanently makes him a follower of that lord.

Once a lord, he would be able to unite that continent into one empire that would in turn try to conquer the other parts of the world.  If they succeed in capturing the world, he will be known as the Dragon Emperor, giving him complete rule of the planet and the ability to muster an armada in order to expand the territories of the empire. Once they are able to conquer enough planets the ruler will be known as the Legendary Dragon, the highest a Rarian rank can get. 

Race: Rargarians (Beast men)- Rargarians are not only composed of one race or species; they are composed of different species. The commonly known races in the Rargarian empire are the lizard men, Animal Morphs, Halflings (crossbreeds, not to be confused with the Hobbits from LOTR) and the serpentine creatures that call themselves the NAGA, but the only thing that they have in common is that they are all eager for war.

Races of the Rarians that are still on the their home world

The Giants

-The Minotaurs: They have a reputation of being the toughest and stubborn Rarians the empire has to offer, towering an impressive height of 20 to 25 feet or a two-story building for an average adult, but some have been reported to have grown up to 30 feet or a three-story building. With their enormous strength and build, they make good engineers and architects in times of peace, but in times of war they will take up the very tools that shaped their civilization to the front lines, where they will soak up most of the damage. Despite this, they always manage to get the first strike. They are the sledge hammer of the empire.

-The Bears: They utilize their claws or their weapons to strike fear into their enemies, though they aren’t as useful during the day, as they usually sleep and don’t train.

-The Pandas: While the others use brute strength to win, the pandas use technique to win the day, preferring to fight in secluded and hard to get areas to get the upper hand. They are the archives or the historians of the Empire, keeping the knowledge and wisdom of the legendary Dragons.

 -The Rabbit morphs: They are mostly the scientists and farmers of the Empire, experts in cultivating and maintaining the land. Because of this expertise, they provide most of the food the Empire needs. They are characterized as extremely agile and silent , and are often employed as assassins or saboteurs. They believe that there is more to strength than just brute strength, and as such, they are referred to as the daggers of the Empire.

-The Naga: The Naga are the rulers of the seas and the ones that provide the most meat of the Empire. They specialize in aquaculture, keeping the Empire well fed from the cunning snake morphs to the mythical tireless but few Krakens, while keeping the Empire supplied with fish. They have been said to be the makers of the once vast and unstoppable race of the Rarian empire, as well as the spears of the Rarian empire, due to their numbers and adept vigilance.

-The Dog Morphs and Cat Morphs: The dogs and the cat morphs are the most numerous and plentiful of all the Rarians in the world. While the dogs value brutish strength, the cats value skill to win the battle. They share a slight animosity with each other, however, when faced with a bigger force they are known to cooperate in defeating it, thus earning them the title as the Shield of the Empire.

Demography: 20% Humans ,80% Rarians, but the Rarians multiply so quickly that this can drastically change in a few years 

Religion: The Temple of the Dragon
The Rarians follow the teachings of the legendary Dragons of old, worshiping them, even training to be their followers for the day they join them in the afterlife. Their training is actually preparation for their final battle against the ones they call the gods.
The Temple of the Dragon teaches that all Rarians are the descendants of the mighty Dragons of old, and in order to avoid corrupting the strength of the Dragons, they won’t allow for weakness, frailness, and cowardice, even to the point of outright killing them in the spot if deem so.

Culture: 
“Those that are weak must die, and all those that are strong are Rarian” is the common phrase that a Rarian must live by.
The culture of the Rarians is very militaristic, valuing only the strong. However, they still possess a culture outside of warfare, as some factions have said to be worshipping gods other than the temple of the dragon while others have their own beliefs on the legends of the dragon: traditions that define a member of a clan (rituals, coming of age, proving, challenges, festivals, architecture, food, etc.) as their culture can only be defined by one word and that is the word people. 

Economy:
Renown coins: The primary currency of the Rarians there is the legendary, gold, silver, and tin.

-Legendary- the coin with the highest value. Worth a hundred gold coins 

-Gold- is the second highest. Worth hundreds of silver coins

-Silver -the most common of all the coins, as silver can get you right about anything that you need to survive
-Tin- the lowest of all the coins. It is only used to get the barest necessities for one to survive their everyday life
 
Favors: favors are the secondary money and probably the most popular one. The Rarians use these to get necessities and equipment. Primary tattoos of their victories, or a souvenir that proves their exploits. is what a typical flavor would look like but there have been cases of vehicles, tapestries and palaces that have been used to be proof of favors owned by a person. This means that if a famous person wants bread, than he/she can get it by showing a proof of a famous battle he has been part of.

History: 

Before the Empire came to be, the Rarians were nearly able to create the next great Empire led by Randrive the wise… but once the Emporium came, the Rarians where able to subjugate the first wave of humans as their near unlimited number proved too much for the Emporium soldiers to handle. This victory was short lived as the ships of the Emporium of Man descended, destroying all the Rarian cities and scattering their armies like shooting fish in barrel. The Rarians had no way of fighting those ships, and were reduced to vain cursing and vowing that they will have their revenge against the Emporium , and that the Rarians shall rise again. 
Shattered and beaten, the Emporium of Man took most of the survivors as slaves, making them work for the Emporium. Most of the rabbits where placed in agricultural worlds, the Rhinos and Elephant morphs to large asteroid mining facilities, while the reptiles where sold as exotic pets or lab rats. Birds became personal slaves or hauling cargo for hard-to-get places, and the once proud Minotaurs were chained up, shackled and forced to participate in building, mining and hauling the Emporium cargo. The once proud people were shamefully broken. 
While they took the other clans to other planets as slaves, they didn't spare the home world of the Rarians; turning half of the world into industrial complex and making them work in factories until the day they died in the midst of unrest.  Those who were unlucky enough to continue living were imprisoned inside large underground mining facilities, forever doomed to mine for the Emporium’s engines of war. 
With most of the planet controlled by the humans, there were still some spots that were owned by the last pockets of the last independent Rarian clans that were free from the control of Man. These unconquered spots were small, underdeveloped and weak, but if they were to be united by a leader then they would have a chance to free their planet from the invaders and possibly create the next great Empire. 

Important characters (very important, your leader[s], your strategist, your spy master and any other important character IN DETAIL):
Karduke Dragon fist: leader of the Iron fist clan
Karduke is the leader of one of the last independent clans in their home world of Ram. He is a minotaur that is as big as a three-story building, and is one of the tallest of his race. Also a survivor, Karduke hates the Emporium and vows to return the Rarians to greatness. He is known for killing a dragon (A dragon-like creature in the world of Ram) with the sheer use of his fist. Nearly missing death by an inch, all for the greater good, he was patched up by Jake the hermit. The results of these incidents caused his iconic mechanical look. As most of his skin was burned up or torn off in the fight, Jake the hermit replaced most of Karduke’s skin with armor plating. Karduke also acquired a special weapon from his healer, an edgeless  sword which he named Golok. With his clan almost ready to fight, he geared up to take back his planet from the invaders. Knowing from experience that a frontal attack would be suicide, he tried to ambush them where they couldn’t use their weapons effectively.

Jake the hermit: Head scientist
Jake the hermit is one the few rabbits that weren't caught by the slavers. His old age has saved him from their hands.  After surviving countless wars and battles, Jake retired from warriorship and lived a life of isolation, inventing and improving all gear, weaponry and what is known as body tinkering (Bionic): replacing body parts with armor or a weapon.  Only Karduke knows of his residence which is in the deep untamed Rm wilderness. Jake is stubborn and irritable when he is separated from his work.

Lulu the swift: Leader of the Hidden dagger
Lulu is the daughter of Jake the hermit. She leads the remnants of the rabbit morphs called as the silent dagger clan, and is known for her speed and agility. She tries to free the enslaved rabbit morphs that are chained up in small plantations outside the industrial complex of the emporium of mankind, and with calculating patience, she waits for the perfect time to strike. 

Luke the brave: Lulu’s second in command 
He was once the dragon of a rabbit morph clan but was enslaved. Saved by lulu, he vowed to follow her to the end of time as her follower. Fast, agile, and experienced,  he prefers to lead the attack from a place the enemy wouldn’t expect where they would appear. Also a skilled weapon master, he can wield any melee weapon with great efficiently.

Description of Military

Armies: 

United 

Dragon Raiders: They are the normal infantry of the Rarian Empire, mostly comprising of dog morphs, cat morphs and a few giants like the Minotaurs that lead the charge.

Sky Pierces: (Think of the ODST from Halo and the kinetic strike). They are infantry men that are both bombs and paratroopers falling from the skies. Once it makes impact, it creates a large crater or piece through enemy defenses. Then, the troops inside start to come out and start fighting, which are composed of the Elites and the most well equipped men. They will not stop until all of the enemies or all of them are dead.

Wall Breakers: Consisting of the Elite giants the Rarians have to offer , from the elephants to the Minotaurs, they are great at destroying enemy defenses. 

Powder beggars: These Rarians excel at ranged combat; as the name suggests, they first got their name from the use of gunpowder weaponry.

Navy: All Rarian ships are made for ramming and boarding. Some possess guns,  as their fleet is mostly composed by captured enemy ships. As they get more ships, they will be able to develop their own ships but as what they are now they won’t be able to create their own.  
 
Technology: The Rarians as a race are quite primitive, in fact, they are the most primitive race that the Empire has ever encountered but they are not to be underestimated. Once they start acquiring your weapons or ships, they will make their own versions though they aren’t picky with what they get as long as it helps them. 

Additional: 
1) A tip: never act weak in front of a Rarian; it never ends well.
2) Overpopulation is a very big problem for the Rarians as they breed very quickly.
3) they call everyone a Rarian once they deem them strong
