Daymont Praji

Daymont Praji, also known by the nickname "Veracity," was a member of House Praji and a commodore of the Galactic Republic's navy during the Pius Dea Era. In 11,660 BBY, when the Republic failed to capture the ruling council of the planet Zarracina III, Praji ordered that the planet be subjected to orbital bombardment in retaliation. The bombardment caused the near-extinction of the Zarracine species, members of which went on to nurture a millennia-long hatred for the Republic and House Praji.
==Biography==
Daymont Praji, also known by the nickname "Veracity," was a member of the House Praji aristocratic family who lived during the Pius Dea Era, a period of time between approximately 12,000 BBY and 11,000 BBY when the Humanocentric Pius Dea cult controlled the Galactic Republic.The Essential Guide to Warfare Praji served in the Republic's naval forces and held the rank of commodore. In 11,660 BBY, after a strategically important stable hyperspace jump point was discovered in the Zarracina system, the Republic attempted to gain control over the planet Zarracina III, which was inhabited by the sentient Zarracine species. On the verge of capture by the Republic, the entire ruling council of the planet committed suicide in order to avoid conversion to the Pius Dea religion and to spite the would-be Republic conquerors.
In response, Praji ordered Zarracina III to be bombarded from orbit, which sent the planet into a state of radioactive winter. The bombardment also caused the near-extinction of the Zarracines, with the few remaining aliens adopting a nomadic existence and nurturing hatred for the Republic and the Praji family that lasted for more than ten thousand years. In 104 ABY, Doctor Gabrel Treon mentioned Praji's role in the bombardment of Zarracina III in the article "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Praji: A Cartel of Genes," published in the Byblos Journal of Historical Science.
