| - To a normal man, emotions are powerful but purely mental things generated through chemical reactions which at worst may cause their bodies to become giddly, depressed, removed of pain, or weakened in immune systems. These physiological changes are visible but never fatal. For the uberich however, emotions are a tool powerful enough to manifest as powerful energies able to stitch the body together from grievous harm, to blast apart others as if struck by a missile. Self-aware of their power, and prone to racial emotional instabilities, the precursors to the uberich took it upon themselves to control their wild emotions through strict dogma, discipline, and genetic engineering. Thus the modern uberich came to be, a being of great power through focused emotion, at the expense of their other emotions. By focusing upon only a single aspect they no longer had the threat of their emotional instability keeping them from being able to focus, and their subtle psionic power grew intense. But with the dogma came a need to be strict, be brutal, and be heartless in their training, and the uberichs grew cold of heart. To the uberich, all other beings are meant to serve them. As cattle are used for feeding the populace, as horses are used to pull heavy loads, so too the other races, humans, orcs, elves, and all. They are psionic masters of their world, as unto small gods, it is natural for them to be on top. In the face of any greater threat, they realize their position, and seek to find a way to topple it, to become number one once more. Needless to say the other races never appreciate this mindset, and so the uberich has few friends outside of his race. At best a being may win the affection of an uberich in the same way a master may see his pet.
