Huh, reminds me of a more civilised Tarkatan. That can't be all there is to your culture, if it was, I wouldn't call it much of a culture at all.

Of course not. Our planet is the home of a large, ever expanding, galactic empire. On Alternia, we have a caste system based on blood color, I reside in the lower castes of "rust bloods". Lowbloods such as myself and those others you saw with me are intended to be dominated by highbloods, to serve their needs in the long run.

Aside from that, we function just as you'd expect from an imperialistic society. ...which makes feel rather dumb about asking the question about a human society.

Right. This caste system is interesting, not based on strength, but purely on right because you bleed different colours... The imperialism reminds me of Shao Kahn, what ever species he comes from... Regardless, you are different from Tarkata in more than one way, they are based purely on strength and skill in combat and they are nomadic, blood thirsty people, I hear they are part demon even.

Basing a culture on pure strength and bloodlust... it sounds foolish and hollow to be honest. It sounds like it's just an endless struggle of oneupsmanship.

-looks at Neon- Who are you?

It is, Tarkata are very easy to manipulate, and by far the most idiotic of all the species. Yet they are also some of the most numerous because of how well suited to fighting they all are. After all, most are born with retractable blades in their forearms.

Hm... that makes me wonder just how much of our society was destined for fighting. Among the blood castes are people who have an inherent psychic ability. Some of us like myself can commune with animals and get them to do our bidding, those in the higher castes have the ability to control minds.

Rufioh. Also known as the Summoner. It is nice to meet you.

Interesting. Edenians are also born with an inherent talent for Sorcery. My one is more clear due to my parentage, but if you'll excuse me for one second, I would love to get back to this conversation. -descends into a puddle-

That's why Ne's unsure whether she was or was not one. Sometimes he tends to see everything in shades of flame, just like his emission spectrum. Gets worse when he's wearing neon-red shades.

You mentioned you could communicate with animals? Is that a trait exclusive to those with your blood color?

Ah. My bad.

Within this range of brown, yes. No other caste should have it.

I'd never heard of a species whose blood color differed among various populations. Not even Carbon told me anything about this.

Eh, it's fine. Btw neon's emission spectra is http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/quantum/atspect2.html
