OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

  • Name: Go Nagai
  • Designation: Sentient
  • Origins: Shri-tal
  • Average Lifespan: 900 Years

PHYSICAL INFORMATION

  • Average Height of Adults: 2 meters
  • Average Length of Adults: N/A
  • Skin color: Pale to golden brown
  • Hair color: Dark browns and black
  • Distinctions:
    • A third eye
    • Split personality
    • Brittle bones
    • Force Connection
  • Races:
    • Closest Genetic Offshoots of the Chi-Oni
    • The Go: The most agreeable personalities and what generally resprsents as human with its third eye closed. THey are much more agreeable to outsiders and more willing to learn.
    • The Nagai: The empowered and dominant personality fulfilling their ancient mandate of destruction and believe their own claims of godhood. THey are powerful force users in general compared to many of the others as they practice and are trained in techniques to enhance their own force connection and use a planets power itself.
  • Force Sensitivity: High
Strengths:
  • Remnant: They are ancient in terms, having colonized the Asobi system in ancient times and subjugating the populaces of the world. Their technology is thousands of years old but compared to what was presented tens of thousands more advanced. Much like the ancient Gree who technology in navigation is still more advanced then modern technology with most of its methods of creation lost.
  • Empowered: Their force skills and connection is powerful, they selectively breed and train to become stronger then the previous generation to make their power absolute,
  • The Force: Selective breeding and culling the weaknesses as they see it from their children. The Go Nagai only accept children who can feel the force and anything less is thrown off of a cliff. This leads to lower population numbers compared to other species but it does feed into their delusions of being chosen gods.
  • Destructors: The Nagai are the ones or at least the ones who claim to have come from the skies in ancient times and created the grotesques statues across the galaxy. Their power uses their own life force to become highly destructive so that they can with enough gathered level city blocks at the expense of their own life force slowly killing themselves.
  • Skilled Liars: The Nagai are very skilled in their speeches and claims. It is never certain if they are telling the truth, a half truth or a straight lie about their abilities, their history or their presence within the galaxy. The few things that can be confirmed is they are old from before the Republic, they enslaved and controlled the Asobi System in those times building temples and ruins deep in the earth and their power when facing master leveled Nagai is hard to match.... it isn't known to the general galaxy if they were born that way or if they receive a few centuries worth years worth of training to have that power, it isn't known if they are the real destructors from myth or if they just attached themselves to the legend to feed into their delusion of godhood and it isn't known if outside of their species if they are aware of how crazy they sound. They have dug in their heels to the point all who oppose them are wrong and instead of listening the older leaders dig in their heels and proclaim their own divinity.
Weaknesses:
  • Frail: Their bodies are very frail when in their human form, with Osteogenesis imperfecta as a leading cause of how they can be endangered.
  • Short Life Span: Their power is extreme, in some cases devouring their life itself with its corruptive and destructive properties.
  • Vulnerable: Their abilities come at a cost greater then their own lives, the Nagai have developed split personalities. With the tricloptic third eyes closing to divide the two personalities. When the eye is open the Nagai is awakened, when it is closed their bodies are working to recover.
  • Hypocritically Technophobic: The Go Nagai are strange, they hate technology but use it to enforce their will upon others, they want to see it destroyed but also know that they need to have the most advanced to continue to hold their power. They will refuse to use lesser species technology instead using their life energies and force to achieve their ends.
  • Split Personality: The being is born with two distinct personalities, the human like and usually more diplomatic Go and the traveler, the voice in their head but instead of a conscious telling them right from wrong it is the Nagai a malevolent personality that uses the force to be aware of what is happening and can take over sometimes at random but will need to rest depending on how long it is active or how much force power it uses. When they are in danger it can appear and when it is amused it could appear to attack the things its other half cares about.
  • Population Control: Their selective methods of breeding and examination of the babies to make sure they are not flawed has declined their population significantly. They have begun to recover since awakening thanks to the silver jedi but they do not have the huge numbers that they once did.
  • No Fear of Death: There are safeguards within the species to try and prevent such a state but sometimes they push to far in their abilities. The Nagai believe their own lies of godhood, they believe they decide and are empowered by the force to deliver. This has thrown their minds askew to the point they have been seen to kill themselves in their own pride to prove they are stronger then lesser species. The first stages are
    • Nose Bleeds and Headaches as they try and prevent the Go from taking over to save them.
    • Profuse bleeding from orifices and micro-seizures to try and save itself.
    • The body losing muscle control as the power and strength fo the Nagai goes out with their life energies tearing them apart at the cells.
    • Full blown seizure leading to death as the brain fries itself and leaves the Go Nagai a vegetable.
CULTURE
  • Diet: Omnivore:
  • Communication: Verbal and sigh based with their hands.
  • Technology level:
    • Their technology is ancient but largely and predomently pre-republic and dark ages. They were when fleeing their homeworld able to stand against other species. Mot of their technology though has been lost and knowledge of how to create force constructs and weapons only a myth among even them.
      • Nail of Ning-Ya: An artifact created by human slaves of the Nagai. It works to dampen and seal their personalities so the Go side works and is able to establish dominance. There are not many around the galaxy
      • Nagai Robes: Traditional robes for the Nagai that have been worked on and kept in style. With traditonal Atrisian stylings from ancient times.
      • Nagai Staff: Their staff, in many ways a right of passage as each one can be unique and is used to hold their familiars the morphic Fa-Ut who are bonded to them and serve.
  • Religion/Beliefs: The religion of the Go Nagai is clouded in some ways, they have adopted and incorporated several species into their pantheon while adhering to ancient Atrisian gods and events they learned about from the Warriors of shadow. Their oldest stories have them surviving the cataclysm, that came to Atrisia when it went out and confronted other species. Ones who taught but also attacked with powers few others could comprehend. What is known about them is that they have deluded themselves into being seen as gods using the notion that advanced technology presents as divine magics... they held worlds under them as slaves and were forced into hibernation by an uprising brought against them.
  • General behavior:
    • Their interactions with each other is very territorial, the Go Nagai are born to different castes and it is difficult but not impossible to advance upwards. Having children who are powerful, killing a superior in ritual combat or preforming deeds that seem near impossible. Their breeding actions are highly selective... they seek to make the strongest natural force users and when the children are born they examine them. Flaws or signs that the child is not born with the force can and will lead to death. The barbaric practices makes them much more dangers as does their continued wars against each other. They work to overtake territory from each other, they subjugate the slaves of those under them and while the personalities are generally different... they are both well aware of each other.
    • When they meet outsiders, lesser species the Go Nagai are.... hostile they hate technology, they hate outsiders and the ones who have taken the galaxy over. Everything is free game and they do not care about... peace or friendship at least for now. Generations and old traditions can change with time and work but the ones in charge are dangerous wanting to wipe everything out and return it to a state before the Republic when they were the most advanced once again. THey have cooled off and taken to having their world as well as reconnecting with the Atrisians who have given them areas of Quan'lo's mountain regions.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Born when the ancient Atrisians escaped the damage to their planet, the Nagai ventured towards their oldest outermost colonies and stumbled upon a species that had moved into the old colony when it was abandoned. THe ancient Atrisians subjugating them as they proved more dangerous and powerful and fueled by rage at being attacked by something strong then they had been. Centuries of interbreeding produced the Go Nagai, they were Atrisians in nearly every way but slowly started to develop a third eye which aided them when they were found and attacked. The destruction of an enemy species takes time and is a slow going process.

Their evolved differential traits allowed them at least a chance to survive and they took what they had learned of power and cruelty to heart become despotic rulers on the world and expanding outwards again. Where previously they would seek to conquer and bring under their prosperity. THe Go Nagai though had abandoned considering themselves Atrisians... they were not like those who stayed and likely had been killed on a dying world. The Asobi system proved an effective world for them to start and strike out from. Redeveloping the technologies of their ancestors into new ships and weapons that could be used to crusade against their former attackers in a surprise attack.

The surprise attack was more suicidal as they launcher hypermatter at the suns in their solar systems to cause the suns to go nova and wipe out or irradiate the system and kill the populations on their worlds. With revenge they managed to solidify their place and against species who were showing primitive intelligence they start a newer method of controlling those under them. THey became gods and demons... beings who would rule from the stars and their advanced technologies would appear as magics and sorcery. They developed a sense of godhood as a species wide delusion and their personalities split. With force training for their more cruel and overpowering personality.

THey continued to expand from the Asobi system and eventually came into conflict with other species... ones they had encountered in the ancient days . The battles were longer and more bloody as the new ruthless nature and army of slaves they could throw at them. The war was protracted and deadly to both sides with the Go Nagai being pushed back again but they gave this time as good as they received and in the end orbitally bombarded the world into ruins.... but when they returned home they discovered a new problem with the warriors of shadow. female cultists who had split from the taungs and battles between the two came.

The sisterhood of the taungs were fierce warriors who in martial combat could overpower but when it came to being attacked with the force they were woefully outclassed. The Nagai themselves able to put down most of them and were not prepared for the fallout of it. With their stance weakened many of their slaves were able to see that they could be beaten, they could bleed.... which caused them to not fear them as much. Instead they rose up or found ways to suppress the more dark personalities. THe slave uprising caused many of them to instead of being killed to go into hibernation.... with cryopods that would let them sleep until the beasts died out.

The mystery of the Go Nagai remained within the Asobi system for thousands of years but eventually the stories of gods became just that stories that were told and even worse they were forgotten. The silver jedi coming to the system and discovering their tombs though reawakened several who woke up the others. The reawakening of them also brought something else... in their sleep the taung had constructed something else.. the warriors of shadow had created hammers that would possess and control to seek vengeance against the being who had wronged them. The ancient war was brought back with a third party in the jedi.

The battle didn't last long, the Go nagai were largely outclassed in terms of prwess and their technology was largely unusable after so long but they still had their power and ferocity as they fought the taung spirits and the silver jedi. They were pushed back onto their world and allowed to live albiet under a blockade that confined them to the world until the dangers were past and negotiations were able to take place. THey were allowed to leave the world on the grounds they would demilitarize themselves and a representative was brought to be trained by the jedi. As a means to try and calm them down but it proved mostly effective.

The Go Nagai since then have remained largely quiet.. living on their world and expanding to Atrisia and several of its colonies... with the Chi-Oni who were found and other aspects of Ancient Atrisian Society. A few joined the jedi and serve as advisors but most of the Go Nagai remain in their fortress and plot ways to fight among each other.

their power within the force is able to level cities who oppose them.
Could you re-word this so people don't make an apprentice-level Go Nagai and start throwing star destroyers?

I'd like more information on those transformations that give them god-level powers too...

Tag me when you're ready.

Designation: Non-Playable Sentient
Because they are meant to be a threat to overcome not a race people can use. The Withering Smokes are much the same way.

The transformation... is not much, their personalities are split with one half being able to use the force at the cost of their own lives and the other being the one who owns the body. The Go is usually seen with the Nagai coming out when it is time to act. I might actually have to reword the idea as the Nagai is aware through its force connection of what is happening and when to come out but The bottomline is if someone makes a character of this species (aside from the NPC leader that will be used for exchanges) then it will be a very bad thing.

And reworded it, they have power but at a very serious cost. [member="Mrrew"]
 
Alright. I like the idea and the concept, and with the edits everything looks good. As always, abuse and suffer.


Unless the bigger stamp sees any problems, approved pending secondary.

Phew, that's a really detailed sub and it's a great read! I love the concept of the Go Nagai, I think they'd be very interesting. I do have some things I need corrected before approving this though:

Intent | Small thing, please change Factory to Codex here.
Remnant | Please link the Gree wiki page.
Destructors | No editing required here, but I will reiterate that, like the reviewers before me, this level of destruction must be used with caution and with valid reasoning.
Short Life Span | 900 years doesn't seem very short to me. I'd ask that you either reduce the lifespan to make this weakness true or remove the weakness itself.
General Behavior | "Their selective breeding and killing of non force sensitive children or flawed individuals" Earlier in the submission you noted that the Go Nagai are an entirely Force Sensitive species. Therefore, there isn't a possibility for one to somehow be born without that sensitivity. Would you mind adjusting this sentence to simply involving individuals that are seen as flawed in some way by the examining Go Nagai?
As always, give me a tag once you've completed edits or if you have any questions or clarifications you'd like to make.

The short life span is meant to directly correlate to the destructive power. If they want to be stronger and more powerful they use their own life force to amplify it.

and it is possible for one fo them to be born without the force but they are selective and would make sure such a flawed thing didn't presist. It is what harms their population but would make "all of the " living ones force sensitive.

but I do believe I got the edits

Because there is a possibility of them being born without the Force, I will need this to be moved from All to High on the Force Sensitivity field to account for the ones that aren't Force Sensitive, even if they are traditionally killed.

Aside from this, once this is changed, I can pass this for approval.
