Economic Summary

The Draakin System has very little in the way of economic power, except for the 2nd asteroid belt which contains several latinum rich asteroids. This source of income allows for good trade for items the Drecan race needs to finish making Draakin III a livable place.

Government/History

Member of Federation: No
Form of Government: Meritocracy

Government

Leadership within the Dezeld society is dependant purely on skill, and challenges are normal for higher ranking positions. However, unlike thier past where all challenges were executed through combat, present day challenges depend on the position sought after. Generally, once a position was won, it was kept until signs of incompetance was shown

History

Much of the rich history of this society was lost during the "Great Exodus" that occured in the earth year 2406, when a young man named Valareos Draconrouge, until then presumed dead, appeared out of a wormhole between Earth and Mars orbit. At the time, it was presumed that he was alone, however, he carried with him a large memory device that contained icoleniar chips he claimed was a gift. After testing, it was shown to be safe, and he was allowed to keep it. It wasnt until SD 25180217 that Draconrouge discovered what the memory discs actually contain.

Due to their home star entering its final stages of life, thier planet changed dramatically, food sources drying up, and society beginning to break down. Draconrouge's arrival was seen as an oppurtunity to ensure their survival. He became the first Dezeldi. About three hundred Dezeld used transporter technology to initiate a teleport, then inturrupted it, and saved the information to chips on how to reassemble the matter stream. This resulted in the refugees able to excape their world, in hopes that their chosen carrier can find a way of bringing them back.

As the first Dezeldi, Draconrouge underwent genetic changes as his body conformed to the demands of the Dracon DNA. It was the hope of Ara'Akko Thelareos, that if all else failed, their race at least would continue.

Military Ranks

The Dezeld Air Wing is an elite force of fighters who excell in atmospheric combat. Before the great exedous, they also had a group of space born fighters as well. However, due to current limitation on ships, they have found otherways to act as a military force for the Dezeld Their ranks are concidered permanent, and are carved into their very scales. Once a rank is gained, it can not be removed, meaning promotions are taken very seriously. Because of this, the ranks are designed to be built on each other.

Race/Society/Culture

General Physical Appearance

Dezeld: Reptillian Quadraped
Dezeldi: Reptillian Biped
Kerynwyr: Same as Non-Dezeldi parent

Social Structure

The Dezeld race as a whole are seperated into four distinctly individual subraces, each its own set of responsibilities to the race as a whole.

The Kerinwy are the offspring of a Dezeldi and a Non-Dezeldi. They are recognized as members of the society, but beyond that have no rights other than what is given to the parents. Equal rights activists have had their concerns quelled, by the simple fact that every kerinwy is conciderd a child. As they go through natural genetic changes at maturity, they become a Dezeldi.

The Dezeldi are responsible for the procreation of the race, and are required to find a non- Dracon mate. Two dezeldi seem to be incabable of bearing young together.

Two Dezeld are capable of bearing young, however, the maturity rate for these is much longer han that of a Kerinwy, due to their longer lifespan. When a Dezeldi reaches near the end of the natural life span for their parent’s race, he or she begins a rapid, final change into a Dezeld.

The Dezeld, are the highest level for one of the Dezeld race. Only a Dezeld can hold a position of authority within the society, with the exception of the Ambassador position, which is given to a Dezeldi or a Des who has blood ties to the target race. The Dezeld have no known limit to their lifespan, as their blood contains a copy of their DNA, and works to prevent genetic and cellular damage. However, it has been noted that the older a Dezeld gets, the more reckless they become.

The Des (or Desa for a female) is the highest social rank. Even Dezeld respect the Des. They are Non-Dezeld, who have chosen a Dezeldi as a mate, and have through them, helped ensure the survival of the Dezeld Race. The first known Des was Rae Sterling, mate to the first Dezeldi Valareos Draconrouge. It is the custom of the Dracon to assign the title to the mate, and from there, respect the traditions of the Des' original race. The Des’ can choose, however, to take on a Dezeld name, as Rae chose to do.

The name of a Dezeld is broken up into 3 Parts. First can be considered similar to Mr, or Mrs in common, it represents the social class, and color of the dragon, or in the Des’ case, the color of their mate. The second is a given name, and is their true name. The third shows who hey are mated to. Rae Sterling, therefore, became Desa’figret Fferyllt fi’Valareos, which means Lady of the Red Fferyllt, mate of Valareos. Valareos became Dezeldi’figret Valareos fi’Fferyllt. For identification with rank, only the second name is used, so Commander Sterling became Commander Fferyllt

Confirmation Ceremony

The joining of 2 Dezeld, or a Dezeldi and a Des' is a ceremony deep in tradition, and the recognition that it is the joining of not just two people, but two clans, 2 families, and at times, 2 empires.

The Offering

Each side offers the potential mates to each other... this first part is to show that both clans agree to the ceremony that will take place.

Test of the Male

A male that can not protect his mate is not worthy of a mate. This test is one of battle, to prove prowess, and willingness to put ones life on the line. This is more for show, but the injuries one can sustain are very real.

Test of the Female

This is a test of trust. and commitment. again, ceremony from when the males would mark a female as his, the male will tattoo the female, either in the hand, or the face, as the female preferrs. Choosing one or another is not a sign of shame, but some feel that a marking on the face shows greater trust.

The Naming

The ceremony finished, each are named according to tradition. At this time, any offspring created before this time are also named, and officialy recognized.

Banquet

A feast in the honor of the new couple.
