The Thrall

The Thrall (known in their own tongue as Thraku) are a ancient, proud, and rather violent species he'll bent on delivering 'Devine Retribution' to the universe as a whole.

Overview
Commonly referred to as savages, brutes, and barbarians of all sorts by most species they have interacted with. In all reality they are ancient beyond count, rulers of a rather expansive and growing empire, and a proud warrior people who see their ways and wars as just and right in the eyes of their Gods.

History
Not much is known of the Thrall's history save they are the oldest, most enduring, and the most fanatical opponents of the 'Angel Spawn' (Ex: Rin, Nektan, and Gretch alongside pretty much everyone in the Vigro supercluster)

Of what is known is they come from a time the Rin know as the 'Time of Wrath', 'Universal Wars', or the 'Time of God's'. A time where the Rin have their origins. During this time the two powers that be (Angels and the Mu) waged countless wars of domination against each other normally through the use of engineered species, the Thrall are one of these species.

After the fall of both super powers and the end of the universal wars the universe was left to it's own devices with the many engineered species left to their own devices. While some species used this time to rebuild or primitive species used this time to evolve the Thrall waged war amongst themselves in massive civil wars stretching planets and sectors within their 'home galaxy'. This time is known as the 'Time of Strife'

The wars continued for countless millennia with these wars leading to the rise of many warlords, tribes, and clans alongside the birth and expansion of a warrior culture, but this time could not last forever. It began to wane as foreign species began to conquer far off clans and drive into the ancestral lands of the Thrall. The head of the mighty clan Ruk, a man known as Sargon, was gifted a vision of a United Thrall with his clan at it's head. With this Sargon began to conquer lesser clans one by one slowly building up his military strength enough so to challenge the larger clans some saw the futility in fighting his hoard and laid down their arms while others continued to resist till none where left. This time is known as the 'Time of Unification'

With a unified lore and a large empire Sargon looked greedily to the neighboring galaxies and sought to expand and he did so by force of arms and a pinch of diplomacy. The Thrall where known as brutal warriors slaughtering all who resisted and making bloody sacrifices to their Gods, but they are not a people without honor. Those that surrendered before the initial attacks would be granted clemency. This time is known as the 'Time of War' which is the current era.

Society and Culture
The Thrall are warriors with war begin both the main occupation of the majority of the Thrall species and a holy act. Thus warriors ate seen as the elite and any other practices as lesser and delegated to the dregs and slaves.

In Thrall society females are the spiritual and administrative leaders with males being the bulk of the warriors. Generally both sexes are treated as equals.

Thrall are ruled by individuals known as 'Judges' who take the roles of general, judge, and priest all in one they are the nobles of society. Not all Judges have equal ranking though some Judges rule over small communities others entire worlds. After the Judges come the Govoners who serve as the over reaching government officials that keep the local Judges in line. After the Govoners cone the true elite the 'Matriarchs of the 20 Clans' each being the head of one of the major clans with each ruling over a massive interstellar fief of thousands of worlds. Now finally the Grand Patriarch rules over the Empire as a whole and is elected by the Matriarchs from the warrior class.
