- Religion/Beliefs: Their religion is less overt, with many believing in gods of worlds and spirits. THe gods or god of a world/planet brings life which attracts the spirits... those spirits become animals and sapient species on the worlds. THey then worship the gods who are active while passive gods bring life and remain in the shadows... quietly making sure everything is harmonious on the world. They view the worlds as young gods with the oldest being revered which drew them from their world that was dying to the deep core worlds.
- General behavior: Divided into two groupings culturally with a third interspecies born under conditions that are rarely seen. The Senren
- Alphas: Highly protective of each other and their families, the alphas are tough and can be seen as aggressive but they are driven by instinctive needs to protective the beta's and omegas who symbiotically balance them out. The species as a whole works together to survive and for now paired being they are able to go out and explore.. They are usually the warriors of the Senren and police forces being able to fight and work in the labor fields like forging and construction.
- Alpha's are highly protective and aggressive when it comes to protecting their family. A strong instinct to have one is there but once they have it they will do anything to protect them even go againsst their leaders or entire groups past the point of madness.
- Omega: Generally calmer and more reasonable in situations. THey are protected by their alpha's and have pheromones that can affect the moods of being around them in powerful ways. While considered weaker physically they are more flexible and clever.
- Carnac: A rare breed of the Senren, generally born as twins when one is an alpha and one an omega. One of them then becomes hermaphroditic in their genetics and has qualities of both alpha and omega. They are rare but accepted in society.
- Force Users: With force users of their own and outsiders they respect the power... not worshiping it but respecting those who wield it with control and restraint.
- Outsiders: To outsiders they are often considered friendly... usually welcoming unless threatened and then the alphas can become highly aggressive to protect their families. They can be quick to offer a meal or drink should they meet with new people.

There is not much known about the Senren aside from when they were found by the Atrisians... old as a species but their homeworld had been lost or destroyed.. they were not even certain anymore and the ones who had introduced them to space travel and the galaxy had died out... no one was certain about it but tales of them turning on their oppressors who used them as slaves are legends that they often recite. Instead the Senren are a nomadic people who spread out across the region and when they were encountered by the Commonwealth were offered a place within. They were decent scouts.. soldiers and could if anything be an offworld group that would serve in different environments.
Their world itself was lush and rural at one point allowing them the chance to attract other species who were coming to the outer rim worlds. THeir planet was not advanced... just barely past the stages of reaching outer space. The resources of their world proving valuable to explorers who wanted to exploit the resources for fuel and materials. Battle ensued between them and in the end the planet itself was destroyed being torn apart as ships laid fire to the surface. The Senren managed to steal ships and technologies from their attackers and piling in as many as they could set out for a new planet using the navigational charts.
The ship traveled towards what was called the deep core and the Senren learned what they could about the ship that they took. The coordinates they still didn't know but when they arrived the ship crashed on the planet. A far flung world from them in the deep core that they looked at as ancient believing in it as something their gods led them to after failing to protect the world. They didn't encounter anything at first and worked to set up a settlement using the remains of the ship as the base for their home. Eventually they were discovered by the inhabitants of the planet and fighting ensued for a time.
The fighting lasted for only a decade and was more of attrition as they had no where to go and no way to leave.. the ruler of the world took pity upon them and designated a small area for them to live in. Teaching them the language and learning from them became important but they were always considered outsiders who when space travel began on the world were offered a chance to leave... some did after a few decades of living on the planet and some stayed behind making it into their own little home. The vastness of space and the deep core was of great interest as many of the Senren learned to live among the stars in smaller family ships.
Senren socieity found different worlds.. some with massive cities where they could live in small neighborhoods and others where they could group together in villages. Eventually they met the Atrisian Commonwealth and several of the worlds that they were a part of joined it as the government reached from the core into the deep core and into worlds from the unknown regions of the galaxy. They found a place as outside of Atrisia they were more welcoming to the idea of alien species at the time, thousands of years would pass as the Commonwealth remained while wars came to other plances in the galaxy and the Republic fell.
The centuries continued and the Senren largely lived in peace with other species.. being able to travel around the different worlds where they kept to themselves and aided when needed. With the dark harvesters attacking they fought against the undead and the netherworld rifts. THose who had survived after the plague. They continued to survive and live throughout the Commonwealth but it wasn't until Atrisia opened itself to refugees that they really came to the system itself... finding a small colony on the refuge island of Horai and where many other species were. They got a chance to see the expansion of the Jishi era as Atrisia was terraforming many of the worlds and moons in the system.
The Senren still have not come together on their own world but spreading throughout the deep core worlds and working with the Commonwealth has proven the most beneficial to starting their own lives. They left themselves room to grow and negotiating with others can try to make some villages and cities.
