  • Designation: Sentient

  • Origins: Vran'Ti

  • Average Lifespan:

  • Grai Vo: 24-40 years

  • Shi: 90 years

  • Ven: 110 years

  • Vo Ni: 170 years

  • Estimated Population: Slightly over Planetary

  • Description:

  • All Vran appear functionally identical to a race of humans in their normal form and are typically appearing in good health, with exception of the Grai Vo.
PHYSICAL INFORMATION

  • Breathes: Type 1

  • Average Height of Adults: [ In metric. ]

  • F: 1.68 m to 1.8

  • M: 1.78 to 1.98

  • Average Length of Adults: N/A

  • Hair color: Brown and black. May turn grey/white when aging.

  • Distinctions:

  • The Vran are not visually much different from standard humans with exception of the Grai Vo and Ven.



  • Age: When a Vran begins to reach old age they undergo visual changes well before physical. Their actual physical deterioration usually only lasts a few final years of their life, being almost sudden and quick as their body accelerates into death rather then easing towards it. The aged individuals feature more lax skin or wrinkles, and sometimes may randomly scar.



  • Grai Vo: Age rapidly, often looked like they’re living corpses or actively deteriorated. Either possess very pale or rotten like skin.



  • Ven: May appear any variety of ways due to their shapeshifting abilities. Often take on animal traits to enhance their abilities.

  • Races:

  • Pendi: Somewhat lighter skin, most of the Pendi race are from the mountains or few forested areas.

  • Xrock: Darker range, closer to the ocean or desert areas.

  • Few other differences/variations.

  • Force Sensitivity:

  • Low/All

  • All members (unless it is removed) have a force sensitive organ called the Vo. But only a few members are truly force sensitive.
Strengths:
Science:
Most members of the Vran are incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to science and mechanics. And specialize in medical alterations and healing of Vran physiology or other organics. This also makes them especially good at optimizing their abilities to their peak. And possessing many healing pills/serums/techniques and anti-venoms/poisons. And in reverse, makes them excellent at fighting.

Physical fitness: The Vran are often very physically fit (with exception of Grai Vo) and as a result make for excellent combatants and workers being somewhat faster, stronger, and more resilient then other species. Because they are so well versed in medical and organic science, it is common knowledge how to keep oneself in optimal health, as well as is culturally pushed to do so. Of course, this usually is only relevant to the Shi, as the Vran can simply use their Vo to make more muscle.

Vo Variations: Some differences between how the brain, body, and nervous system work with the Vo, or with the Vo itself, cause variations that are close enough to interbreed but which could still almost be considered different species. Grai Vo are essentially diseased, Shi are essentially average, Ven have a more intense interior use of the Vo, and Vo Ni are simply any Shi or Ven that is force sensitive within the body, rather then just the Vo organ.

Grai Vo:
-Cause force powers and energy to be absorbed by their Vo, this makes them almost immune to direct force powers, and weakens beings near them while drawing especially on the force sensitivity of others. It dims light and sound, and can even kill or cause a force sensitive to lose their abilities temporarily while weakening them in their presence. It resembles some combination of a constant force drain and force absorb with a radius of around five meters.

Shi:
-Common human strengths, they are a fairly adaptable and malleable individuals.
-Vo: Though weaker then either the Ven or Vo Ni. The Vran possess a force sensitive organ that allows them a certain level of ability using the force. However this is almost exclusively limited to boosting their physical abilities to much higher speed, strength, and resilience, and occasionally a form of telekinesis. Their boosting of their abilities greatly resembles a full body Enhance_Attribute or Force_Enhanced_Condition

Ven:
The Ven, or Molders, are not really much different from the Shi. They simply have a more powerful Vo and body which they are more intricately connected to. A Ven is able to forcefully alter their physical bodies, essentially, shapeshifting them. They primarily can only change between substances they already possess, and shapes. A particularly powerful and intelligent Ven may be able to alter themselves enough to mimick more beastly creatures like Rancor over time, but this would be quite difficult. They are more capable of visual alterations, and efficiency alterations, without changing the overall mass of their body.
Ven can gain or lose weight fairly easily, but have to have a source to gain it from.
A Ven who is also a Vo Ni is generally even more capable of their abilities, but they are very rare.
Changes remain even if unconscious or preoccupied.

Vo Ni:
Vo Ni are those who are force sensitive and possess the Vo organ. They are the only ones who can actually sense through the force, unlike any of the other three. They are rare, but even if their own force sensitivity is weak, just it’s existence allows them to more efficiently use the Vo and access all the normal abilities a force sensitive might be capable of.


The organ is just something force sensitive that the body has to physically manipulate. It's almost like having another being inside of them, that just doesn't have a mind of its own but is force sensitive even though the individual who possesses it is not. In the same way a Vo could be put in a normal human, it would make them like a Shi (who have a Vo but are not force sensitive technically) but put it in a Jedi or a Sith and they'd be essentially a Vo Ni (Who have force sensitivity even without the organ, and as a result can manipulate the organ properly.). If it makes it easier you could compare being force sensitive to midichlorians in the blood, while having a Vo is like sealing a mindless force sensitive organ inside someone.


-Particularly powerful in physical enhancement and telekinesis comparatively to those equally force sensitive.
-Can technically use the force even if they have their organ removed or it fails.
-Are usually taught in rather mystical properties, especially in regards to listening to the force, alchemy, witchcraft, and necromancy, styled work. (Not always)
-If a Vo Ni is also a Ven, they are particularly more capable of their Ven abilities.
-Have to use less energy to use their Vo, as they are closer to a typical force sensitive.


Weaknesses:
Any Vran who possesses a Vo is in danger of becoming a Grai Vo if their organ is drained too far or infected to near death. This can be caused either through severe injury, heavily weakened immune system, or being in the presence of another Grai Vo for too long.
Grai Vo:
-Have considerably shorter and more unpleasant lifespans, rarely living past 40, most die just around 30. They are almost constantly weak and tired, and deteriorate quickly. They cannot use any force powers themselves as the Vo is constantly pulling at it, and even if they would have been force sensitive, they would lose it quickly. This resembles a combination of force drain and force absorb with a radius of around five meters.
-The dimming of the light and sound around them also means they are partially blinded and deafened by it.
-Because a Grai Vo is essentially dying at an accelerated rate, they simply cannot reach even remotely normal physical fitness and are easily tired, diseased, and injured.
Shi:
-Without actively using it, the Vo does not offer them any of the abilities a force sensitive could have. Meaning they are no different from other humans.
-The use of the Vo can be quite taxing on the body. And usually only focuses ones abilities into a moment, something they could have managed if they had more time. It requires more energy, and as a result, requires the Shi to be in good physical health in order to use it properly and to eat plenty or they can starve themselves in mere moments of overuse.
Ven:
-Shapeshifting requires considerable energy, and may require additional mass. Meaning they need to eat plenty in order to preform it.
-Incapable of gaining mass to a body without having a source of sustenance for it.
-Cannot become too small, as they have to have their Vo with them.
-Can damage the Vo if they shift wrong, which is immensely dangerous to their health and would also stop their transformation, usually deforming them considerably.

Vo Ni:
-May be weaker if they lose their Vo.
-Still can tire from overuse of their force sensitivity or their Vo


CULTURE

  • Diet: Omnivore

  • The diet of most Vran, with exception of the Ven if they can shapeshift to eat it, is not unlike that of the human species. They tend to not be picky eaters, but there is a list of common foods they consume:

  • Insects, fish, plants, herbs, and cattle meat are common. They are often somewhat more immune to poisons one might find in things like cacti, fish, or snakes, when consumed.

  • Communication:

  • Shrak: The most common language with a wide use of an individuals entire mouth, tongue, and cheeks, to produce more sounds in order to reduce the complexity of some words.

  • Galactic Basic: Almost exclusively for use with outsiders, though they have little trouble pronouncing it.
Vo Mon (Speech of Soul) Telepathy: In the case of the Vo Ni many utilize a form of telepathy to commune with one another called Vo Mon or the speech of Soul. This allows them to hear and send out their thoughts.

  • Technology level:

  • Moderate/High




  • They have a fantastic level of medical and organic technology and expertise. Being able to create artificial organs and limbs, preform molecular healing, preform immensely complex operations, and have healing serums for most diseases. They understand their bodies to an incredible degree and have the equipment to take advantage of that. This knowledge also helps them in day to day life, knowing how to eat a proper diet, knowing how to exercise to keep optimal health, and take care of themselves mentally where needed.



  • They are also very good at mechanical designs, traps, catapults, etc.

  • What the Vran have in organic and mechanical science, they lack in transportation. Having almost no actually ship yards on world and importing the vast majority of their ships. This is because the Vran prefer older forms of transportation when it comes to local movements, and when they leave they usually rely on outsiders transportation, lacking the significant industries to create notable constructions such as battlecruisers or reliable frigates that could not be put together by hand.

  • The Vran are also prone to a lack of numerous powerful energy based weaponry on their planet for similar reasons.


  • Religion/Beliefs: The Vran are an immensely religious race who’s entire lives are usually focused around serving the Vran’ti Vo, the soul of their planet. They believe the Vo is the soul of any living being, and that the Vran specifically have a physical manifestation of this Vo which comes in the form of a heart like organ opposite their own heart. This Vo is normally force sensitive, even if the Vran themselves are not. However, for those who are not themselves force sensitive, this Vo does not grant them the same abilities as a normal force sensitive. Only the Vo Ni (hands of the soul), who are truly force sensitive, are capable of fully utilizing it’s abilities and sensing the will of the Vran’ti Vo, and can commune with one another without the need of speech. The Vo Ni operate much like priests and chosen leaders among the Vran, with the Vran’ti Vo Ni being the greatest of them all.

  • The Grai Vo, or soulless ones, or immune, are those whose Vo has deteriorated. Causing the organ to try desperately to keep itself alive by preying on the life around it, even being able to cause other force sensitive and in particular other Vo to deteriorate in their ability, or even causing them to become another Grai Vo. While this does in fact cause them to become almost totally immune to force powers, it also kills them at almost twice or even three times the rate a normal Vran lives, making them almost always weak, darkening the light around them, and quieting noise. Making them often impaired in sight and hearing.

  • Becaues the Vo can live on without a body, and a body can live on without a Vo, the Vran’s worst fear is to have their Vo stolen from them and destroyed or given to another. As they are then considered even less then a Grai Vo, and cannot be made one with the Vran’ti Vo in the afterlife.
Slavery:
The Vran have little issue with slavery, as long as the individual is either indebted or lacks a Vo. If a Vran becomes immortal indebted to another by having stolen or broken something irreplaceable, killing unrightfully, or causing an action that permanently damages another, they belong to the most injured party. If they are a Vran, they can even have their Vo removed without any option for protecting it.

  • General behavior:

  • Family: The Vran do not believe in singular marriage, believing rather that a marriage is merely an agreement to raise children, or for political or military purposes. As a result, many prominent Vran have multiple spouses and often times numerous children. A Vran’s choice of mate is left entirely up to them and really isn’t judged.

  • School: On Vran’Ti, everyone is a scientist, and is expected to pass on this knowledge to their children, or send them to someone who can. They all must learn how the body works and how to preform certain medical procedures. And must all understand mechanics. This allows those precious surprise intellects to already have the knowledge they need to take further steps with it.

  • Production/Survival: Vran believe in efficiency, and that means they use farms, nets, production facilities, anything that makes it easier to produce controllable quality in larger quantity with less effort. There are specialists who may do things personally, but the vast majority preform team work to obtain their goals.

  • Art:

  • The Vran are very artistic race, and even the laborers’s homes are often adorned with drawings or sketches. While places like the Vran’ti Ni’s underground is filled with art, gold, silver, and statues of many kinds usually depicting stories or tales.

  • Science:

  • The Vran are also specialists when it comes to organic science, they are immensely knowledgeable about physiology, feeling it is necessary to understand their physical Vo and the body it inhabits to better help the Vo transcend from being a mere organ.

  • Daily life:

  • Most Vran spend most of their days working, studying, and praying. Whatever your position or power, this is what is expected. Those who laze about are often outcast from cities and considered a disrespect to the Vran’Ti Vo, an unhealthy Vran will not be treated the same as others if it was by either carelessness or laziness that brought about their lack of health. So most Vran strive to remain as healthy as possible.

  • Knowledge:

  • The Vran are incredibly keen on the idea of Knowledge being power. As a result, they will pay for it, and likewise expect to be paid for it considerable. Even believing it so vital that they are willing to use memory erasure devices when only a certain individual is allowed to make use of certain techniques or knowledge.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION

Vran’Ti was first discovered by human travellers some four thousand or so years before the Battle of Yavin. The travellers settled and in time became used to the world. Eventually they began focusing on medical science, which became a heavy influence on their culture. For the next few hundred years, they might not have been too different from other planets newly formed. Until the first Vran began to discover just how much they could alter their physiology. They began learning they could form force sensitive organs which could live separately from a host just through the force, but which when connected, would allow an individual to use the force in some ways, though not sense it interestingly. In time, this organ they began inserting into their genetic code, causing future generations to possess the organ.

As time passed, their obsession with the organ grew and grew. They ceased any use of their ships, focusing instead on their medical science and the force. In time, what began as science, became religion. The organ became the Vo (the soul). The people who could use it in full, sense the force, were called the Vo Ni (or hands of the soul) because they could seemingly act by the command of some invisible mind and talk to one another without needing to open their mouths.


From there, the Vran decided that the world itself must have a Vo, and that they wanted to give it an organ just like their own. They elected on of the Vo Ni to speak for the world, the Vran’ti Vo Ni. The strongest among them. And then, as the Vo Ni died off, they began taking their Vo and putting them deep underground in a temple, connecting them together as each Vo Ni passed away. This would become known as the Vran’ti Vo, the soul of Vran’ti, sometimes called the Heart of Vran’ti. As time went on, they continued to grow in number, and also discovered a disease which caused the Vo among some individuals to deteriorate. The Grai Vo. People who sucked and absorbed the force (the Vo and it’s abilities) right out of the air, weakening them, and endangering them, while also slowly killing the Grai Vo themselves. It made them immune to the Vo yes, but at a terrible cost. Because by now the Vo became known as the soul, the Grai Vo were seen as lacking in it. They were pushed to the mountains whenever found, to live out their shorter lives without endangering others. However, because they had no investment in the lives of others, they could be seen as unbias judges, and so often were used for just that purpose as well.

The Vran were eventually rediscovered around 30 BBY, when some travelers decided to use the planet as a hold out. However only to come across an almost worldwide religious civilization with suspicions of these outsiders. The planet did eventually began to work with the outerworld however, and by 100 ABY they had exported quite a few warriors, bodyguards, art, medicine and medical equipment, and scientists. And though they still kept their ways very secret, the world was in a way profiting from this with the outside world.

In 500 ABY they had a more official standard of cooperation with outsiders, requiring a sort of fee to be paid for employing Vran. This helped the world continue to profit even if the Vran never returned from the exploits with more wealth. The Vran’Ti Vo Ni and some of the Vo Ni also began offering assistance in some battles with their personal militaries. Making them almost a mercenary army, though they required quite good pay and were specific about their jobs.

By 700 ABY the Vran’ti Vo had become considerably larger, and required more to guard it. Still it was kept very well hidden from outsiders and even it’s own people. Believing it was important that only the Vran’ti Vo Ni be allowed to converse with it directly, all others could only guard, or hope that one day their own Vo might be united with the Vran’ti Vo in death.

In spite of such medical advancements, even after so many millennia, the Vran rarely make as many alterations as they once did. Focusing more on fast healings, anti-poisons, etc. Though they do have many potions, serums, etc, which have quite the variety of effects. They may use their technology to obtain money, but among each other they have reached a state of mostly equilibrium except for specific circumstances.
 
Good Evening [member="Nexus Krae"],

This is quite the submission you’ve put together here, it really seems to be a project you’ve thrown yourself into, and I love that. However, there are just a few points I’d like to get some clarifications from you on before I stamp this as approved.

So, the first thing is a small issue concerning the image links you’ve provided, the Pinterest link to the picture of Imhotep is broken. You have also provided 3 links but only 2 images. Did you perhaps mean to include one more?

I also have to admit some level of confusion when I saw the additional names you’ve provided in addition to the species name, the Vran. As I understand these are the various names given to those with differing relationships with the Vo? If this is so, then could you please make this clearer when naming the various castes within the Vran species, maybe detailing what their relationship is in a clear concise sentence? It might also make it clearer if you labelled them not as species names but as caste names? While all the elements of a template need to be included in your submission you can always add to them as needed.

In the origins field you have stated that the species is



Nexus Krae said:
Origins: Human with genetic hereditary modification
However, the template does not ask for how the species came to be but rather as follows;
  • [SIZE=9pt]Origins[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]: [ This can be a planet (canon or Chaos canon sub), a company's lab, a region of space, extra-galactic, etc. Provide a link if applicable. ][/SIZE]

If you could please include a link to the planet here, the creation of the species can be further detailed in the Historical Information at the end of the submission, which I noticed you had already covered.

When it comes to the description you wrote,



Nexus Krae said:
Description: Though the Vran usually appear human as one may first see, they possess a few key differences mainly revolving around aspects of the Vo, a force sensitive organ natural to all Vran.
However, the template asks for the following.
  • [SIZE=9pt]Description[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]: [ Provide a short paragraph that describes this species at a glance. More in-depth descriptions can be added in distinctions below. ][/SIZE]

Please could you flesh out your description a little, we don’t need a lot but more than one sentence. Anyone who is writing with you could be looking to this field in order to have an idea of how to describe your character.

As a small administrative note when filling out the Average Length of Adults for humanoid species N/A is the generally accepted terminology, not just leaving it blank.

In terms of the strengths you’ve provided, could you please add a little more detail into the Hardened bodies strength? You didn’t mention anything about it in any other part of your submission, so if you could explain why they’re all so physically fit?

I also happened to notice that you failed to include the Vo, the presence of which would be a significant strength of the species. It is entirely upto you but I’d recommend including it with an explanation so that anyone looking at the sub in the future has an easy point of reference.

I do like how you included a variety of strengths for each of the 4 sub groups, however I worry that the Grai Vo’s ability might be a little too powerful. I am happy to pass it as it is, but I would suggest you might want to flesh out the strength, in particular the line about causing force powers and energy to be absorbed, do you mean energy generated by the force such as force lightning? Also, you haven’t provided any information about the size of the field or its’s strength. Is it akin to a ysalamir’s total negation of the force, or a voidstone’s weakening of the force? Why does it dim light and sound? Although an interesting effect it isn’t really explained or gone into deeply, and so it would be hard for another writer coming to RP with them to understand what’s going on.

The part about the Vo Ni confuses me, in the strengths section you mention that they are the those who are force sensitive and possess the Vo organ, however, in the historical information you state that ‘In time, this organ they began inserting into their genetic code, causing future generations to possess the organ.’ The line from your Historical Information section would indicate that all Vran are now born with the organ, and therefore are all Vo Ni, or Ven at the least. I’m not sure I understand how, given this the species isn’t all force sensitive. Which leads back to your Force sensitivity, either the species has a Low Sensitivity, that is ‘Some members are, but many are not’ or are all sensitive, ‘(Every single member is born sensitive to the Force, but lack training.’ From your description it appears that low is more correct, although you might want to expand on why not everyone is born as a Vo Ni then. You also mention in the Shi’s strengths that they are capable of using the Vo, if this is true then it would seem the entire species is force sensitive. I’m afraid that this particular area is unclear, and could use a lot more clarification and description somewhere in the submission so that people can follow along with what your idea of the species is.

When speaking of the technology oyu marked it as Low/High but then only described how advanced they are, could you either remove the low rating or explain why you believe it applied to them? The lack of shipyards in and of itself is not a signifier of a low level of technology which is defined as below galactic standard. Your description seems to point them as to being above galactic standard but making a choice to not build ships, although it seems they would be capable of it if they so choose.

When discussing the general behaviour you mention that ‘everyone is a scientist’ but then go on to say that some of them work as labourers, which seems to be a contradiction in terms. Could you clarify what you mean?

In the historical information section you mention that their suspicions increased, however you never mentioned what kind of suspicions these were.

While this may seem like a lot, it is mostly just asking for clarification about some of the points you have mentioned in the submission. Of course, all of these are simply requests and as such I would be happy to approve the submission if you wished having just fixed the administrative fixes required to bring the submission in line with the template.

Please feel free to ping me back when you have read through my queries to let me know your answers or if you have any questions.
 
[member="John Locke"]

Ok so there was a lot I had to work with here so if I missed stuff I wouldn't be surprised.

1. Fixed the Description part.

2. In regards to the difference between the types of Vran and their organs, I'm not entirely sure how changing it from species to caste would really make it any easier to notice a difference. Nor if it would change anything but one word? Not sure what you want me to change there?

3. Fixed a little in regards to the technology level. Explaining that they just don't have the industries to make the amount of stuff most civilizations do, regardless of if they know how. And still only possess moderate knowledge on some matters that others get easily.

4. Fixed length issue.

5. Put world under origins.

6. In regards to force sensitivity it is in fact listed

"However, for those who are not themselves force sensitive, this Vo does not grant them the same abilities as a normal force sensitive. Only the Vo Ni (hands of the soul), who are truly force sensitive, are capable of fully utilizing it’s abilities and sensing the will of the Vran’ti Vo, and can commune with one another without the need of speech."

the organ is just something force sensitive that the body has to physically manipulate. It's almost like having another being inside of them, that just doesn't have a mind of its own but is force sensitive even though the individual who possesses it is not. In the same way a Vo could be put in a normal human, it would make them like a Shi (who have a Vo but are not force sensitive technically) but put it in a Jedi or a Sith and they'd be essentially a Vo Ni (Who have force sensitivity even without the organ, and as a result can manipulate the organ properly.). If it makes it easier you could compare being force sensitive to midichlorians in the blood, while having a Vo is like sealing a mindless force sensitive organ inside someone.

7. I can try and explain how weak the Grai Vo really are but I thought it was pretty clear they're like weak, dying people. They have less then half a normal life span, can barely see and hear, and are practically deteriorating as they live so they wouldn't be very great as warriors or assassins, all of which is in their descriptions. I did add a distance of the field and some comparison to force powers it resembles like you suggested though, realize I should have done that before.

8. I'm going to go try and fix the Imhotep picture but there actually are three pictures one just has to be clicked after you open up the first it seems.

I'm sure there's something I missed, this was a pretty extensive amount of important stuff to go through I realize so you had to give a lot more in response, which also means I probably missed something in your post.
 
[member="Nexus Krae"]

Thank you for making those adjustments.

In terms of the different types of Vran, I'm just trying to ascertain if they are different sub species, or just the different way the Vo reacts to a person's force sensitivity?

Actually, I really really like your explanation about the Vo and how it reactios to people you provided in answer 6. Could I ask you to add that to the submission? It explains everything needed in a way that's very easy to follow.

Thank you for adding the powers, that does make it easier to understand what's going on with the Grai Vo.

The only other thing that really stands out to me that you've failed to answer is the comment I made about the physical strength.



Nexus Krae said:
Physical fitness: The Vran are often very physically fit (with exception of Grai Vo) and as a result make for excellent combatants and workers being somewhat faster, stronger, and more resilient then other species. This is a result of them generally preforming more physical actions on a day to day basis even for an average individual.
You hadn't referred to their physical fitness elsewhere, is this a cultural thing or are they genetically built that way? I only ask in case anyone wants to write one in the future, it would be a useful note for them to know.
 
[member="John Locke"]

Alright so I added some of my number 6 answer to strengths under Vo Ni. And I think I've kind of got an explanation for why they're different, I set it up above the listed species strengths:
"Vo Variations: Some differences between how the brain, body, and nervous system work with the Vo, or with the Vo itself, cause variations that are close enough to interbreed but which could still almost be considered different species. Grai Vo are essentially diseased, Shi are essentially average, Ven have a more intense interior use of the Vo, and Vo Ni are simply any Shi or Ven that is force sensitive within the body, rather then just the Vo organ."

I've now added a bit like suggested in regards tot he physical fitness:
One is further expanding on a piece in culture:
"Those who laze about are often outcast from cities and considered a disrespect to the Vran’Ti Vo, an unhealthy Vran will not be treated the same as others if it was by either carelessness or laziness that brought about their lack of health. So most Vran strive to remain as healthy as possible."

and the other is in the technology list:
"This knowledge also helps them in day to day life, knowing how to eat a proper diet, knowing how to exercise to keep optimal health, and take care of themselves mentally where needed."

So more it's just that they're really good at remaining healthy, not so much that they're genetically superior aside from the Vo. I did at in the physical fitness section that it mostly just related to the Shi, as the Grai Vo are just doomed to be ill, and the Ven can use make more muscle whenever they want essentially.
