Sakaarans (Earth-1600)

The Sakaarans are a humanoid race found on the desert-like planet, Sakaar.

History
The Sakaarans are split into two ethnic groups; the red skin Sakaaran Imperials and the grey skin Shadow People. The red skins are the ruling class whilst the grey skins live as nomadic warriors or in small villages around the planet.

The people are ruled by the Red King, whose empire stretches across the planet. The Sakaaran Imperials and Shadow People are loyal to him as they believe him to be the prophesized Sakaarson.

The Sakaarans live a lifestyle similar to the Roman empire of Earth. The people outside the cities live a relatively basic agrarian lifestyle, with little to no advanced technology.

Thanks to the portal the Sakaarans have advanced technology thanks to crashed ships that they have scavenged. They have advanced energy weapons, translators, battle armor and robots.

The Sakaarans share the planet with other indigenous races such as the "Natives", who are small insect-like humanoids that live in the harsh deserts of Sakaar. They are primitive and easily conquered by the Red King's armies. Other races include the "Spikes" who are spore-like creatures that infect thier hosts, and continue to kill and replicate.

The Sakaarans also have to deal with as other life forms who have fallen through the portal. These are usually captured on their arrival and taken to the arena to take part in gladiatorial combat for the people's amusement.
