No great achievements can be made without great sacrifice; we of the Rovegar know this lesson well, for it has shaped us as we are this day. Should the cost of path to perfection be within our grasps, then it is by the duty of the warrior-queens of this galaxy to pay the price in exchange.

- Vileraz I, First Queen of the Vileraz Dynasty

The Rovegar are a race of artificial mammalian humanoids native to the lost world of Raltian, at the Geriamias Sector of the Borealis Galaxy, where they rule over the great empire known as the Rovegar Matriarchy. An all-female race, the Rovegar are noted for their great psychic potential and poor gene pool, meaning most of them look strikingly alike. While sometimes considered vain and egotistical, the race has become a solid member of the Polar Crystal Alliance and an important ally of an ordered Borealis following the end of the War of the Ancient Three.

History[]

The Rovegar are an artificial species created by a race of ancient and technologically ascended beings known as the Seireniar. A race which spanned the Geriamias Sector during the galaxy's Dark Age, they eventually became prey of Regnatus and the Borealis Grox Empire, who believed their people had become too advanced to remain unopposed and were ready to be processed. The survivors and leaders of the Seireniar created the Rovegar in their image and placed them at the undeveloped world of Raltian, in order to preserve their legacy while the Seireniar secluded themselves to escape Regnatus' wrath. The primitive Rovegar, at the birth of their existence, were tribal in nature and left to evolve on their own, though the Seireniar found a way to influence and guide them to a path similar to their own through their last awakened messenger, an artificial intelligence by the name of Gardiniel.

At one million and two hundred thousand years ago, the Rovegar would come to be the dominant empire of Arm A, rivalled solely by the Alvino Brood who they gave a wide berth. However, at this time, they also came to blows with the Ganthorea and the Kondrakar, the two becoming the Rovegar race's greatest enemies and three of them becoming collectively known as the "Ancient Three". The war between the three great empires led the Rovegar to enter an age of stagnancy and decadence, leading them to lose their hold over the galactic arm and become secluded to Geriamias for hundreds of thousands of years.

In the modern era, the Rovegar have returned to galactic affairs under the Rovegar Matriarchy and have become members of the Polar Crystal Alliance, which led to their people once again becoming widespread across Borealis in all areas, from politics and military affairs to the galaxy's poverty and criminal underground.

Characteristics[]

Biology[]

Modern Rovegar biology is the result of several hundred thousand years of bioengineering, done for the purpose of heightening their natural affinities at the cost of a poorer gene pool. They are humanoid mammalians who stand at around 2.3 meters, with characteristic large red eyes, lithe bodies, and weak musculature. Most Rovegar look rather similar to each other, with pale skin, red eyes and reddened markings on their limbs.

The Rovegar have evolved themselves into a mono-sex species; by default, the average Rovegar is biologically female and the race reproduces through taking samples of a partner's DNA and using it to alter their own. They have also evolved themselves the ability to reproduce with most other carbon-based alien lifeforms to compensate for their natural poor genes, which leads to the birth of Rovegar sporting small tertiary characteristics of the other species; i.e. a Rovegar born from a Zoles sporting a pair of small, bony horns. Biologically male Rovegar are not naturally occurring but do exist as a very uncommon fraction of their population; these are either individuals or family lines who underwent genetic engineering to become fully male, sporting a more powerful and muscular body frame that leads the vast majority of them to take combat and military roles.

Behavior[]

Due to their ancient history and sophistication, Rovegar are known to possess a certain air of haughty arrogance towards other species, though in a patronizing sort; they believe younger cultures need their guidance in order to succeed, which includes being useful towards the Rovegar's own goals. They are, as a result, often stereotyped as manipulative, deceptive and hedonistic. In truth, Rovegar possess a fairly human-like moral compass and ability to emotion, having a strong culture of cooperation and placing a strong emphasis on mutual affection and healthy relationships.

Abilities[]

The Rovegar are famed for being among the most psychically-attuned species in the Borealis Galaxy. They are naturally engineered into possessing psychic powers from birth, which takes the form of natural manipulation of elemental energy. As such, virtually all Rovegar are capable of feats such as levitation, telekinesis and telepathy. To compensate for this, the Rovegar are also noted for their poor physical prowess, having low natural strength and endurance unless when undergoing intense training or being subject to synthetic enhancements.

Individuals[]

Political[]

Matriarch Elramyn
MiniElramyn

The Rovegar were once revered as enlightened and wise. It is time Borealis sees us in that light once again.

Matriarch Elramyn is the leader of the Rovegar Matriarchy, having ascended to the throne following the death of Vileraz IV. Hailing from the noble house of Arrevena, she was among the few nobles to side with the Discordant Ones led by Kirlisir during the War of the Ancient Three, which led to the wider Rovegari population to pick her to lead them into a better future. Refined yet aware of the plight of the common people, Elramyn wishes to bring about a new era of enlightenment to the Matriarchy by making it a trusted part of the galactic community.

Matriarch Vileraz
MiniVileraz

Borealis must be mine, like the Composer herself demanded.

Matriarch Vileraz IV was the supreme leader of the Rovegar Matriarchy up to the Ancient of the Ancient Thee. A distrusted and disliked woman by her own people, Vileraz IV had the reputation of being a dreaded tyrant who only cared for power for herself. One of the oldest Rovegar in history and also one of the most powerful, Vileraz IV wished to make the Polar Crystal Alliance her newest playthings, which ultimately led to her downfall.

Mother Sovereign Yalorein

I am always watching.

Yalorein is the elusive Mother Sovereign, the supreme authority of the Sisterhood. Her past uncertain, how exactly Yalorein obtained the rank of Mother Sovereign or even where she came from is something the Rovegari nobility questions to this very day. Yalorein is well aware of how feared the Sisterhood is across the Matriarchy, but in her opinion, she is a necessary evil for the prosperity of the Rovegar as a species. Speculated to be at her 1,200s, Yalorein is incredibly old and experienced, but antisocial and cold toward her subordinates.

Nayanur Nens

My people belong to this galaxy. I will make sure they receive that respect.

Nayanur Nens is the Councillor representing the Rovegar Matriarchy in the Polar Crystal Alliance. Formerly a close agent of Matriarch Vileraz IV, she was appointed to be the empire's diplomat in the Alliance so that the Matriarch could always have an eye inside the Alliance's decisions. However, after joining the Council, she slowly warmed up to other races, eventually leading to her joining the rebellion against the Matriarch. Today she served the Alliance as a truly loyal member.

Military[]

Gallarade Erureidan
MiniErureidan

Wanna hang out? A beer, maybe? I'm up for anything, really!

Erureidan is the Gallarade, the personal bodyguard and assistant of the Matriarch. The most powerful of all Rovegar in both physical and psychic terms, Erureidan is actually a very laid-back and welcoming individual. After the end of Vileraz IV, he served her replacement with renewed hope for his people.

Mother Militant Azurelai

Come on! Let's have some fun together!

Azurelai was the Mother Militant of the Rovegar Matriarchy, the highest ranking authority of the Rovegar's armies, just below the Matriarch herself prior to the War of the Ancient Three. She had served under the Rovegari Militant for about 200 years, advancing into the ranks of the army due to her exceptional skill and victories over the Ganthorea. Known for being a hot-blooded lover of action, Azurelai enjoyed making her presence known, being loud and with a passion for the sound and power of explosions.

Mother Armada Nashra

Truly you don't expect to fight me with such a feeble weapon.

Nashra is the Mother Armada of the Rovegar Matriarchy, the highest ranking authority of the Rovegar's navy, just below the Matriarch herself. Being born at the Composer's Melody, the homeworld substitute of the Matriarchy, she had a liking for spaceships since an young age, and as soon as she reached adulthood, she joined the navy to commandeer her own ship. Her leadership skills and victory over countless enemies, including the Ganthorea, allowed her to ascend to her current position. Nashra is rather sarcastic and condensing, and due to her position and kill count, she rarely takes her enemies seriously.

Others[]

Gardin
MiniGardin

Who cares for the Matriarchy? I have all I need here.

Gardin was a Rovegar warrior adopted as a child by Vekaron after her original homeworld was destroyed by the New Wranploer Legion. Trained since her early days by Kirlisir, Gardin grew into her pupil and as a powerful addition to Vekaron's team, who she sees as her family. Due to being separated from the Matriarchy in her childhood, Gardin had grown to see it the same way as Kirlisir, as a corrupt force which needed to be renewed.

Traslia

That's so cute, it makes me want to hug it!

  • Name - Traslia
  • Affiliation - Tetra
  • Status - Alive

Traslia is a young Rovegar scientist who once worked on investigating a beacon of Kormacvar origin, until her expedition was massacred by the Zarkhator. She was saved by Penumbran Tetra and has since become a permanent part of his team. Traslia displays an usual Rovegar mindset and is very perky, quickly calling out her opinions on things. As a scientist, she is very intelligent and makes a great addition to Tetra's team.

Kirlisir
MiniKirlisir

All fear the day my voice calls for them, for it is the voice of death.

Kirlisir was a rogue Rovegar who openly opposed the the rule of Vileraz IV. She was a rare Caerulan Rovegar, with blue hair and body features as opposed to the standard green of the race. Famous across the Matriarchy as a very powerful warrior with an unique set of armor, she would become the leader of the Rovegari insurrection of the Discordant Ones, and would later become a martyr for her people following her death to Vileraz IV.

Queen Ganthar

“''ETERNITY IS OURS.

  • Name - Queen-caste Ganthar
  • Affiliation - Ganthorea
  • Status - Deceased

The drone known as Queen-caste Ganthar was a former Rovegar Matriarch who was absorbed into the Ganthorea, turned into a personal servant and "bride" of Doctor Brekiel. It was her assimilation into the mutant plants' hive which led to the eternal war between the Rovegar and the Ganthorea, though in the modern era, only the Matriarchy's most high ranked members remembered Queen Ganthar's existence and relevance. Sporting incredible psychic powers, the Queen was a figure who stood behind the scenes at all times, leaving the Ganthorea's public affairs to her surrogate daughter.

Princess Ganthar
MiniGanthar

Interlopers be consumed!

  • Name - Princess-caste Ganthar
  • Affiliation - Ganthorea
  • Status - Deceased

The drone known as Princess-caste Ganthar was the only publicly known of the Ganthorea's leaders and likewise served as the plant empire's main face in intergalactic affairs. Power-hungry and naturally sadistic, the Princess had been the nemesis of numerous Rovegar Matriarchs through the ages, having come to cause the death of many of them during history. Manipulative and malevolent, the Princess was among the galaxy's most dangerous individuals and her defeat remained as one of the Polar Crystal Alliance's topmost priorities during the War of the Ancient Three.
