D'un K'un

The D'un K'un are the natives of the planet Vesivis. That were a seemingly advanced race until they were afflicted by the vampiric virus known as the Bloodpox at some point in their past. It is theorized that they were advanced enough to travel among the stars, but it would seem that none that have left the planet have ever returned. The Bloodpox annihilated their civilization, taking them from an advanced race to a group that doesn't even understand what lies in ruins of their former glory.

Little to nothing is known about what the D'un K'un were like before the virus devastated the planet, and they now exist as little more than twisted monsters loosely controlled by the seemingly ruling class of those least affected by the virus. In fact, all of the D'un K'un follow a hierarchy. At the lowest level are drones, completely disfigured creatures that perform basic tasks and serve as fodder in conflicts. Slightly above them are the soldiers who are twisted brutes that serve as shock troops and beasts of burden. Next comes the scouts, whose reaction to the Bloodpox caused them to sprout wings, which are used to scout and relay messages. At the top of the hierarchy are the nobles known as Sangroi. They still retain most of their logical minds, though they are afflicted with the insatiable thirst of the Bloodpox. Their features are also twisted, and they possess wings like the scouts. Many of them have also gained psionic powers as a reaction to the virus.
