Oxir

Location: High Risk Zone (HRZ)

Overview

The Oxir are a native species of the High Risk Zone (HRZ), one of the few known sentient peoples to originate within the dangerous territory surrounding the Cataclysm.

[!IMPORTANT] The Oxir are the first known species to discover the nature and aspects of cosmic currents — the fundamental energy flows that permeate the galaxy. This discovery predates all known factions' understanding of cosmic mechanics.

Religion & Belief

Worship of Iris

  • The Oxir worship Iris — the sentient planet at the heart of the Cataclysm
  • ~2460: A conscious Tufa discovers the tribes of Oxir; the Cult of Iris begins among the Oxir people
  • The Tufa's arrival deepened and formalized existing reverence for Iris into an organized cult

Cosmic Currents

  • The Oxir were first to discover the nature and aspects of cosmic currents
  • This knowledge gives them unique insight into the energy mechanics of the HRZ and Galia at large

First Contact

  • ~2503: Oxir tribes meet the galactic factions for the first time — they steer away from them, choosing isolation over engagement
