Massassi

The Massassi were the subspecies of an unknown ancient race that was enslaved by Kal Kun or "The Dark One" on Keoush. Massassi were fearsome, loyal, and formidable warriors, and as such comprised the warrior class in the old caste system. They lived solely to serve their masters, but when on their own, dedicated themselves only to whatever life they chose.

The Massassi were fearsome, ruthless, and efficient soldiers. Though the Massassi engaged in supposedly primitive practices such as sentient sacrifice and held a strong caste system, their civilization was quite sophisticated; they saw these acts not as cruel or barbaric, but simply basic aspects of existence. The Massassi language may have been related to the ancient language of the earliest humans, and they also made use of hieroglyphs which were written on their artifacts as well as structures. During the reign of Kal Kun, the race had largely devolved into mindless brutes that followed the commands of their master. There were notable elements within their culture, however, such as the presence of priests and elders.

The Massassi currently inhabit the world of Avin 4.
