{{Species | The '''Allarians''' are a near-human species known for their striking appearance, religious devotion, and brutal societal practices. Their culture is deeply tied to their worship of stars, believed to be fragments of their fire god, '''[[Oolmo]]''', shattered by his wife, the goddess '''[[Nyllira]]''', after an act of betrayal. This belief drives their zeal for ritual sacrifices, particularly the ejection of slaves into stars, to appease divine forces and protect their worlds from calamities.{{Species | ||

== Author's Notes == | |||
Allarian society is heavily inspired by neo-Aztec practices, including ritualistic warfare, slavery, and sacrifice. They are known for their ziggurat-shaped starships, plasma-edged weaponry, and consumption of sentient beings, which they believe honors their gods. | |||
