They have a cast system that allows for three professions within their Society. The Military cast, scientific cast, and the Worker Cast. The Vaadwaur people are dedicated to the pursuits of their leaders and will work to those ends whatever they may be. | General History Description: The Vaadwaur once controlled a vast empire, but fell to the hands of their allied enemies. Attempting to avoid genocide of their race, a few hundred of the Vaadwaur hid in subterranean stasis pods. The pods didn't reanimate the population in five years as planned, but lay dormant for 892 years. Their home planet had been completely decimated. The planet was so irradiated and toxic that life could no longer exist on the planet's surface. When they reawakened from their 892-year hibernation they began plotting and preparing to start a new colony and a later a military campaign to regain some of their old dominion and to rebuild there lost empire. The Vaadwaur survivors discovered another colony that was cut off from the rest of the galaxy and was not destroyed. Together they re-engineered their technology and are now prepared to head out into the galaxy to once again conquer it.
