An alien warrior from a civilization who's history had the single global Empire being formed fairly on in it's history. Part of the reason for this was that the planet a large number of islands in place of continents, few of which were more than a few hundred kilometers from each other. The other reason was the fact that cannons were developed by a culture who's religion mandated a caste system in which warriors were on top and artisans, merchants, farmers and laborers were subservient and were used to unify said people under one banner. Both the cannons and the unification are seen as signs from the gods that they needed to spread their empire and their faith across the world in a century and a half of bloody warfare that did in the end encircle the world, which was divided into fiefs ruled by the great warrior houses.



There were a few civil wars after that between the houses and a few uprisings, but regardless their militaristic empire endured. As their religion demanded that warriors die in battle for their liege lords, it allowed the noble houses to engage in pissing matches while being cheaper than full scale war they eventually switched to largely ritualized staged battles with the victor getting some trade concession or similar. As they begun to develop technology their warriors were intrigued with the prospects of facing foes on other worlds. One of their earliest works of science fiction by a coincidence was named "The War of The Worlds", but unlike Well's story it was of an attempt by their warriors to conquer another planet. When they actually developed Hyperdrive they carried this attitude with them.



This fellow is clad in modern armor meant to envoke the apperence of warriors of the days of old. It has a small personal shield generator with projection modules on it's pauldrons. He also carries a parrying dagger and a sword akin to a saber, which is a mono-molecular live blade. as well as a more modern laser pistol. He also has a headpiece which serves as a combination administrative computer/night vision system/radio on his head.



(Basically my take on the old "Honorable Warrior Race" cliche)
