Gegno Vi

"The Gegno believe it to be necessary to overwhelmingly sacrifice whatever must be, in order to imagine a grand future for themselves. Thus, they have separated into two different branches. One brandishes themselves as the honorable Vi - mightiest of warriors, toughest of kin. They are brutes that see proof of strength being the one and only variable in determining their path."
-Anonymous Quarg, Giaru Gegno: Quarg Contact mission
The Gegno Vi are a subfaction of the Gegno who believe that the future of the Gegno lies in strength.
== History ==
Recent Gegno history has been marked by the rise of the warlike Vi and the progressive Scin factions, each of them trying to convince the rest of the Gegno to follow in their footsteps towards the future. Both factions are convinced that their way is the only true path and this has led to conflicts and skirmishes between them.
== Attributes ==
The Gegno Vi are largely composed of the Laculex, a subspecies of Gegno that are larger and more bulky than a human, with scaly reddish-brown skin and two large horns that arc in front of them.
== Technology ==
Gegno technology is similar to human technology in many aspects, and inferior in some of them. They haven't developed shields yet, so their ships have large amounts of armor to compensate. The Vi mainly focus on slow and powerful vessels armed to the teeth with kinetic weapons.
Compared to the Scin, the Vi rely on fixed cannons and superior armor plating to win the day. Their ships are slower, generally carry more guns, and have heavier armor than their enemy's ships. The basic Vi tactic is to engage and outshoot or outlast an enemy combatant. If the Feldspar exemplifies Scin military philosophy, the Augen exemplifies the Vi; slow, heavy, and equipped with massive guns and heavy armor plating that allows it brawl with an enemy until the enemy ship is pulverized.

== Factional Relations ==
As the Gegno are such a young species, they have never met another species other than the peaceful Quarg.
* Gegno - Most of the Gegno are neutral in the conflict between the Gegno Scin and the Gegno Vi.
* Gegno Scin - The Gegno Vi are currently warring with the Gegno Scin for the right to steer the future of the Gegno in their preferred directions.
* Quarg - The Quarg observe the development of the Gegno from the completed ringworld of Giaru Gegno, in the Aleit system. The divide between the Vi and the Scin worries them deeply and a prior attempt to interfere in their development made the Gegno cautious of other species.
