Sorin (Dark Planet)

The Sorin are a fictional alien species that are native to the planet Natrolis in the game .

Background

The Sorin are a reptilian race native to Natrolis who are a race of warriors that make use of primitive technology. Having had no planetary catastrophes that would alter the evolution of the native species, the Sorin became the ultimate expression of life on the world. As the centuries would go on, their society as well as intelligence would slowly evolve till they became the top of the food chain and, as such, they became the rulers of their world. Various variations of the race developed which evolved a greater level of strength or the ability to fly.

War among the race was very rare as they became quickly unified which did not allow for technological development. Instead of high tech weaponry, the race developed only simple tools such as spears, arrows, shields along with blimps and balloons. However, the race developed th ability to use 'magic' to counteract the advantage the numbers of the Dreil and the technology of the [Human Colonists] . With these supernatural power they can fertilize the lands, bring down a rain of fire or even summon the dreaded Army of Darkness composed of undead Sorin to battle their enemies Despite their ability to wield this religious based magic, the Sorin priests are unable to see the future.

Religion became a prime factor among the race which eventually formed into the a ruling body known as the High Council which had ruled for the last two hundred years without any challenge to their authority. This body consists of the oldest of the Sorin High Priests and despite its political power, it is considered to be a corrupt group one that is more reactionary against threats. The Council itself has a personal fear that an all out war over their planet will bring about the appearance of a Holy Warrior who would challenge their authority and bring down their power structure. Sorin history books prophesise the arrival of such a warrior who will either save their species or destroy them.
