	The UrRu are a race of bipedal, four-armed beings that look a bit like a cross between lizard and mammal. Their hands have four fingers each, including an opposable thumb. They have long necks covered in coarse hair and a snoot with teeth of an omnivore and a kind face. A tail extends from their back up to two meters long. They are in a constant crouching position, bent by age and rarely stand more than 1.4 to 1.7 meters tall but if erect would measure about 3 meters.

	They all appear to be ancient with a tough, leathery, skin whose wrinkles look more like ritual scars. Indeed the wrinkle lines ~~contain~~ a high concentration of a crystalline substance that can absorb energy, converting it into beneficial processes. They are naturally force-sensitive and extremely long lived.		They all appear to be ancient with a tough, leathery, skin whose wrinkles look more like ritual scars. Indeed the wrinkle lines actually are a manifestation of their thought patterns and thus unique to every UrRu although often resembling spirals of some kind. Their skin naturally contains a high concentration of a crystalline substance that can absorb energy, converting it into beneficial processes. They are naturally force-sensitive and extremely long lived.
	The UrRu are vegetarians of a kind as they choose to only consume what does not struggle before it is eaten, but as their home world contained plants and animals of this kind they can be considered omnivorous when traveling around and will eat what has been prepared for them regardless of source (as long as it does not struggle anymore).

	Once, on the planet [[Thra]], an unimportant world ~~still~~ in the [[Unknown ~~Regions~~]] of space, the UrSkek were a race of ancient beings that were strong with the force. They built a society based on their ability to crystalize the force and use the crystals to power their technology and even managed to travel space. But one day it went all wrong. The UrSkek had become self-righteous and arrogant and in their folly, they destroyed the large force crystal that was the mother of their culture.

	On this day the UrSkek seized to exist and the UrRu and the Skek came into existence. Beings, that each were the counterpart of the other, but neither of them whole. The UrRu were peaceful and kind while the Skek were cruel and ambitious. Both were left nearly powerless and slowly started to build their own societies, always knowing that while the crystal is lost and broken it can never be as before. The UrRu have started following the path of restoration. They slowly work towards the goal of finding the crystal and restoring it while the Skek want to maintain the situation as it is.
