Kazren

The Kazren are a humanoid species native to the planet Ashtar in the galaxy. They rule over the Kazren Empire, a major power in the galaxy.

Culture
The Kazren were a highly aristocratic and hierarchical species in their home galaxy. However, the loss of their leaders in the disaster caused the Kazren colonists to adopt a more egalitarian view.

Castes
Kazren society was separate into a strict caste system. Interactions between the castes were rare; though some Kazren of higher castes have been known to marry those of lower castes. After the colonists arrival on Earth, the caste system was largely abandoned.

The castes are:
 * Shaasak: Political, military, and religious leaders
 * Sikhaan: Teachers, priests, and scientists
 * Daagir: Merchants
 * Sainik: Soldiers
 * Maza: Laborers
 * Araad: the casteless, reserved for criminals, outcasts and rebels

Religion
Kazren society is deeply religious. Their religion is polytheistic, centered around a pantheon of one-hundred-and-ninety gods and goddesses.
