== Overview ==
The '''Ursids''' are a noble and honor-driven species originating from '''[[Terra Prime (Galaxa)|Terra Prime]]''', the ancestral home of Humans, Canids, and Felids. Ursids trace their lineage to ancient terrestrial bears and were uplifted by the same mysterious advanced race that elevated other Terra Prime species. This intervention gifted the Ursids with heightened intelligence, humanoid forms, and a deep sense of societal purpose rooted in honor and loyalty.
Ursids are divided into three main sub-species, each reflecting traits of their ancestral bears:
* '''[[Brawn Ursid|Brawn Ursids]] (Brown Bears)''': Towering, physically dominant, and revered for their strength.
* '''[[Common Ursid|Common Ursids]] (Black Bears)''': The most numerous, balancing strength and adaptability.
* '''[[Panda Ursid|Panda Ursids]]''': Rare and spiritually revered, often serving as scholars and mediators.
Their matriarchal society is centered around clans led by '''High Sows''', who oversee political, economic, and familial matters. Ursid culture emphasizes communal care for the young, a strong sense of loyalty, and the sacred obligation to repay life debts.
