YUUZHAN VONG STAR WARS SERIES

Eventually the invaders were driven back and the Yuuzhan Vong struck back fiercely, conquering the invaders and in the process becoming warlike. They were a peaceful species living as symbionts with their homeworld until they were subjugated by a technologically advanced species. Their homeworld was a sentient planet and almost all their technology was organic. Their homeworld was destroyed so long ago that its name has been forgotten. The Yuuzhan Vong are refugees from a distant galaxy. The worker caste consists of the following ranks, in descending order: The worker caste includes Shamed Ones (Yuuzhan Vong whose bodies have rejected implants and modifications), Chazrach (a low intelligence reptillian race enslaved by the Yuuzhan Vong), and shaped slave races from the Star Wars galaxy. The worker caste is the largest, yet lowest, caste, and serves mainly as servants and laborers. The intendant caste consists of the following ranks, in descending order: The most famous intendant is Nom Anor, the most infamous enemy of the Jedi. The intendant caste is responsible for the Yuuzhan Vong economy. The warrior caste consists of the following ranks, in descending order: They wear the living vonduun crab armour which is capable of resisting blaster fire and lightsabers. The warriors are devotees of the Slayer, Yun-Yammka, and seek honour in combat. Their chief weapon is the amphistaff, which resembles a deadly serpent capable of spitting venom or coiling around foes. The caste's most famous warrior is Tsavong Lah, the warmaster at the beginning of the Yuuzhan Vong War. They are well trained, deadly, and are more aggressive than the other castes of the Yuuzhan Vong. The warrior caste serves as the armies of the Yuuzhan Vong and is one of the largest castes. The priest caste consists of the following ranks, in descending order: The priests are the servants of the many lesser deities of the Yuuzhan Vong. The shaper caste consists of the following ranks, in descending order: The shapers are the scientists who supervised the biotechonology of the Yuuzhan Vong. The Supreme Overlord caste consists of the following ranks, in descending order: Only the Supreme Overlord has direct communication with Yun-Yuuzhan, the Creator and Supreme God of the Yuuzhan Vong. At the time of the Yuuzhan Vong War, the current Supreme Overlord is Shimrra. The highest caste is led by the Supreme Overlord, who commands all of the other castes. Their economic system isn't really mentioned, but appears to be a command economy, and their political system is obviously a form of theocracy or autocracy. They range from the powerful two-person Supreme Overlord caste to the lowly oppressed worker caste. The Yuuzhan Vong function in a caste system.

Notably, the Yuuzhan Vong are not included in the Force, something the Jedi have found very mysterious, since all living things are supposed to have, in some way or another, a Force energy signature from other species. They endeavor to improve their physical capabilities through organ grafting. They genetically engineer and grow all of their organic technology and view mechanical technology as blasphemy. The Yuuzhan Vong are a race of religious zealot masochists. They are the only known alien species in the Star Wars universe to have originated outside the Star Wars galaxy.
