Liberata

The Liberata are a Votan race.

Biology
The Liberata are generally shorter than humans with broad shoulders and thick necks.

They also have yellow fur covering their bodies and no visible difference between males and females. Their hands have five clawed fingers and they breath nitrogen instead of oxygen. Because of Earth's mixed atmosphere, they require little aid in breathing the atmosphere.

There is no visible difference between Liberata sexes.

Culture
The Liberata tend to get along well with the Irathients and the Sensoth as they evolved on the same planet.

They were a proud race with a vast empire in the mountains of the planet. However, their pride was quieted following the Forest Wars and their enslavement by the Castithans.

Religion
The Liberata practice a form of Ancestor worship. Instead of praying to gods, the Liberata venerate their Paragons, Liberata who have contributed in positive ways to their society.

Language
The Liberata language is known as Yanga Kayang.

History
The Liberata once lived in the mountains of Irath, possessing a successful empire which spread across the entire range. However, their empire fell during the Forest Wars and their defeat at the hands of the Castithans.
