Crimson Horde

The Deronian Commonwealth is in actuality a horde of warriors that are descendent from the first human settlers. Their system of goverment is based on an ancient notion of being led by the greatest warrior who becomes the Warlord.

Physiology
Deras are anywhere between 5'6" and 6'5", the tallest ever recorded was the current Warlord Zark who stands at a commanding 6'8." The Dera people have pitch black skin and either pure white or crimson hair, also the warriors of the Commonwealth have rich crimson tattoos on thier upper torso that denote the warrior's path.

History
The Deras were orginally a horde of wanderers who fought to survive in the harsh and unforgiving galaxy. Eventually there was a warrior among them who decided to lead them in an all out war against the residents of the local systems and ended up with the Dera people conquoring the Maxix sector. This did not come without a price, even though the orginaly residents were all wiped out, many Deras broke away and started a rebellion to over throw the diplomatic goverment. Years upon years were met with defeat until the descendant of the legendary warrior who led the Dera people in their first conquest came of age and led the rebellion to the gates of Traken. This was none other than a young warrior named Zark Flek, standing at a commanding 6'8" he dominated the battlefeild and was said the destroy the city wall by himself.

After days of fighting, Zark led the rebels into the city and destroyed the old palace and massacred the officals whom had ruled over him. After the battle was won, Zark was appointed the Warlord and leader of his people like his ancestor before him.
