About Norian Culture
The Norians possess a rich and multifaceted culture shaped by a joining of historical, technological, and interstellar influences. Their societal identity is deeply woven into artistic expression, literature, music, political systems, technology, cuisine, and other social elements that define them as a species.
A cornerstone of Norian cultural development is the influence of an ancient precursor race that once occupied their homeworld and others within the Chrystalis Universe. The discovery of artifact technology left behind by these ancients catalyzed the Norians's rapid ascent to their current technological superiority. These artifacts not only propelled their scientific and technological advancements but also permeated their social foundation, shaping everything from governance to creative arts and daily life.
