Luminates

Luminates are a species of prism-headed golems operating within "Lodges" to fulfill the goals of their Overseers, whether that be the handling of wealth or the maintaining of science. Depending on where you encounter them, they may either be a trustworthy ally or formiddable foe, so long as you don't get in the way of the Overseer's goals.
== Race Origins ==
Luminates are considered long descendants of the golems. Just like certain golems, Luminates come in different materials. The material of which they are made from can mostly influence their personalities and attributes. The Luminate society is an administrative one. The Luminates take advice and orders from their great overseer. Overseers are naturally selected leaders. Lodges are divided Luminate societies that can do whatever they want but stil listen to objectives given by their overseer.
== Race Attributes ==
Heads shaped as pyramids, with one eye on the front. The heads are made from different materials, most commonly rare and durable materials. The material of which they are made from can represent their overall personality. For example, Luminates made from bricks are often seen as a tough and industrialist. There are several "variants" of Luminates:
* The Traditional: Luminates with necks connecting their body and head are considered traditionalists. 
* The Modernist: Luminates with their heads hovering over their body are considered modernists, scientists, leaders, etc. 
* The Floaters: Luminates that float without a body are usually used as soldiers, because of their light size, they can be effective for rushing and sieging, as well as serving as a kamikaze distraction.
== Race Culture ==
The culture of Luminates usually revolves around the worship of the exalted power of the Chosen Leader. All of the Lodges within the Luminate society have one primary objective: to serve the needs of the Chosen Leader.
In Luminate History, many leaders made their effect on the Luminate culture and development. Those leaders being;
1st Leader: Tribesman Kilor "The Creator and The Leader"
2nd Leader: Duke Kanyon "The Savior"
3rd Leader: King Kunarr "The Royal"
4th Leader: Governor Krashen "The Expansionist"
5th Leader: Emperor Konsher "The Conqueror"
6th Leader: Overseer Kantar "The Liberator"
Many of these leaders have influenced the politics and society of the Luminatekind, for better or worse. Many political and governmental systems have changed, although the worship of the Leader's power had always remained the same.
