===Sakkra: Tribe Territory=== The key to decoding the motivations of the Sakkra race ultimately boil down to two truths about the scaled beasts: they are hyper-aggressive warriors who solve issues with violence and that their rapid reproduction rates means they often live in close quarters. Protection and community often comes in the form of alliances within and between Tribes, which sharpen their teeth on the conflicts over territorial claims. Tribe alliances are handed down through generations or gained by a show of great strength. The Sakkra thrive in a state of constant fighting and competition, allowing themselves to grow stronger by sharpening the blade against worthy opponents and culling the weak. Control of Sssla, the overcrowded home world of the Sakkra, has always been the singular goal of Tribes through the ages. The Tribes have always had to fight for their access to the precious resources on Sssla, ranging from basic items such as food and shelter up to high technology and access to off world travel. Tribes are ruled over by Lords, who command all and are accountable for providing the resources for the Tribe. Lords are responsible for creating alliances which are bonded and broken frequently. Even as Tribes battle each other for territory, internal divisions within a Tribe can lead to new Tribes, power moves, and even bloody coups. When enough Lords follow another Sakkra, a candidacy for the role of Hierarch is established. When one of the Lords gains enough power and notoriety, they may use their allies to approach the Hierarch in battle – but they must be respected and have enough influence to truly effect the tides of regime change. For those who attain the role of Hierarch, a new hornet’s nest of issues emerges. While the Lords and general population continue to battle for scraps of territory and resources, the Hierarch must look beyond the limitations of the Sakkra’s current predicament. As the Father to the Brood, the Hierarch maintains his control over the Lords, and by extension the population, by leading them into the skies. Bringing new planets under the Brood’s control means new land to be allotted at the Hierarch’s discretion, as well as appointing a new High Lord to manage the Hierarch’s affairs on colony planets. The reach of the Tribes now expands to new planets, but the warring nature of the Sakkra Tribes is as much a part of the Brood as their very scales and claws. They wrest control of new horizons only to see their newly hatched brethren coming to battle for the spoils of war they had liberated. While the Tribes practice formidable warfare among themselves, when they unite under the banner of the Brood to battle a common enemy, the universe will spill enough blood to fill the Great Sea of Sssla.
