==Homeworld==
==家园==


It is unknown if the Vanduul currently have a homeworld. Their homeplanet may have been destroyed or abandoned, which scattered the Vanduul clans into a nomadic lifestyle in their ships. On the other hand, it is unknown where young and female Vanduul live. Genetic analysis of [[X12]]' crew showed that all subjects had a diverse gene pool, which suggest that Hordes or Clans consist of not closely related individuals. It is possible that Clans and Hordes (which are only consisting of male individuals) are formed by a selection procedure on their homeworld and spend the rest of their life with their clan.

目前尚不清楚剜度氏族是否拥有一个家园星球。他们的家园星球可能已被摧毁或被遗弃，导致剜度氏族分散并成为了船上的游牧名族。另外，年轻和雌性剜度氏族的居住地也是未知的。对[[X12]]（被人类捕获的剜度船只）船员的基因分析显示，所有样本都具有多样化的基因库，这表明群体或氏族由不密切相关的个体组成。可能在他们的家园星球上，氏族和兽群（仅由雄性个体组成）是通过基因选择程序形成的，并且在其余的生命中与他们的氏族一起度过。[[File:Vanduul Warrior Concept.jpg|thumb|400px|Vanduul Warrior Concept Art]]


==Political system==
==政治体系==


The political system of the Vanduul has been described as a meritocracy, the political philosophy in which power and wealth are given to the most talented members of a society.
剜度氏族=的政治体系被描述为一种精英领导体制，即权力和财富授予社会中最有才能的成员。这是一种基于才能和能力的政治哲学。


The disparate structure of the Vanduul civilization makes it nearly impossible to negotiate with the species as a whole, but none of the individual clans has offered anything but hostility.<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/spectrum-dispatch/12996-Writers-Guide-Part-Seven|text=Writer's Guide: Part Seven|int=Comm-Link:Writer's Guide - Part Seven}}</ref>
剜度氏族文明的分散结构使得与整个物种进行谈判几乎不可能，而且没有任何一个个体氏族表现出除敌对以外的任何姿态。<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/spectrum-dispatch/12996-Writers-Guide-Part-Seven|text=Writer's Guide: Part Seven|int=Comm-Link:Writer's Guide - Part Seven}}</ref>


There is little to no communication between the different roaming clans. Each fleet operates as its own society with its own independent set of rules, laws and customs as decreed by that clan's Chieftain. As such, it is probably impossible to make peace or establish diplomatic relations with the Vanduul as a whole since there is no cohesive civilization.
不同的流浪氏族之间几乎没有沟通。每个舰队都作为自己的社会运作，拥有独立的规则、法律和习俗，由该氏族的首领颁布。因此，与剜度氏族作为一个整体和平共处或建立外交关系可能是不可能的，因为他们没有一个统一的文明体系。

剜度氏族 ( Xi'an: Uantuul(Uantūl) (Proper); Banu: Wandúlo(Wandúlo); Vanduul: vwanduul; )是有感知能力，意识形态，且进行游牧/流浪生活的外星种族。{{efn|当一名剜度氏族中的男性达到"成年"后，他将与自己的氏族一起度过余生，一直"逃亡"。目前还不清楚剜度氏族的雌性和幼年个体生活在哪里以及在什么样的环境下，但他们仍然需要雌雄交配进行繁殖。剜度氏族是一种两足外星生物。雄性个体居住在飞船上，组成被称为"氏族"或"群体"的有组织的集群。[1] 剜度氏族在2681年与人类进行了首次接触。[2] 自从这些首次接触以来，剜度氏族通常对其他种族，尤其是人类，表现出敌对态度。人类为了与他们和平接触而做出的所有尝试都以失败告终。在2681年至2712年之间，他们对人类定居区进行了一系列大规模袭击，包括卡利班星系、俄里翁星系和维吉尔星系的沦陷。此后，他们不断袭击UEE的"西部"地区。[3][4] 在接下来的250年中，在台博尔星系的冲突导致了数百万名人类士兵和平民的死亡。

2945-10-05的维加二号之战导致UEE 参议院正式宣布对剜度氏族发起了跨物种的战争。[5]并于2946年在奥伯龙星系中与剜度氏族进行对抗，这被称为曼德拉克行动。[6]

历史

WikimediaUI-ArticleDisambiguation-ltr.svg
对于想寻找更多42中队的核心故事线-人类和剜度氏族进行的一系列战争(2945-？）的读者，请参考 )，请参阅剜度氏族之战。

由于剜度氏族没有与人类进行接触，并且遵循严格的"自杀原则"（如果他们面临被俘的危险，他们会毁掉他们的船只），人们对剜度氏族的了解很少。在25世纪，人类在星际殖民地的建立始于远星计划，结果发现并殖民了维加星系、台博尔星系和维吉尔星系[7][8][9][10]紧随其后，在2660年，人类在俄里翁星系进行了定居。[11]期间，定居点没有再次被骚扰。

第一次接触

与人类的首次接触是暴力的。在2681年8月9日，一群剜度氏族袭击了俄里翁星系的阿米塔奇（Armitage）上的戴尔镇（Dell Township），造成638人死亡，并绑架了一名人类。[2][11][12][13]不寻常的是，袭击的来敌抢劫了许多毫无价值的物品，却避开了更重要的物品。自此事件以来，剜度氏族在2681年至2712年间袭击了俄里翁星系、维吉尔星系和台博尔星系，这导致维加星系迅速短暂地增长。[14] until the system became later itself a target of Vanduul attacks.

剜度氏族与UEE之间的首次遭遇发生在2681年9月15日。[13]

伊利亚娜·梅塞尔和其他人类高层一直到发生在俄里翁星系中的袭击之后才正式承认剜度氏族作为人类的威胁。[12]

俄里翁之战

全副武装的剜度氏族

在2712年2月2日，一支剜度氏族部队的突然袭击开始了俄里翁之战。[15][16] 在剜度氏族的袭击下，UEE的舰队遭到重创，撤退至台博尔和卡利班星系，并被迫放弃了整个俄里翁。在接下来的一年中，由一艘"王船"级母舰领导的剜度氏族氏族对俄里翁三号进行轰炸，使用反物质炸弹摧毁了行星表面，然后开始对该行星进行采集。[11][12]

维吉尔大撤退

在剜度氏族袭击昔兰尼（维吉尔一号行星），轰炸并"收割"该行星后，UEE放弃了维吉尔星系，使之无法居住。在这些事件中，数百万平民撤离时丧生。

方舟计划

在梅塞尔王朝落幕后，新的皇帝试图制止之前的暴力历史，并与剜度氏族建立外交关系，邀请他们参与方舟计划。[17]不过时至今日，没有任何迹象显示哪怕一个剜度氏族的部落愿意建交。

卡利班陷落

剜度氏族在2871年进行的第二次进攻导致卡利班星系的陷落。[18][19] 尽管生活在对剜度氏族袭击的恐惧中，但阿雷米斯在2920年代至2930年代期间经历了一次重大的经济繁荣。[4]

全面战争

在数年的“和平”之后，[20] 剜度氏族于2945年十月五，六日袭击了新科尔沃和埃斯蒂利亚(阿雷米斯上的定居点)，吹响了全面战争的号角。

政治体系

剜度氏族=的政治体系被描述为一种精英领导体制，即权力和财富授予社会中最有才能的成员。这是一种基于才能和能力的政治哲学。

剜度氏族文明的分散结构使得与整个物种进行谈判几乎不可能，而且没有任何一个个体氏族表现出除敌对以外的任何姿态。[21]

不同的流浪氏族之间几乎没有沟通。每个舰队都作为自己的社会运作，拥有独立的规则、法律和习俗，由该氏族的首领颁布。因此，与剜度氏族作为一个整体和平共处或建立外交关系可能是不可能的，因为他们没有一个统一的文明体系。

Society

Vanduul do not hold permanent settlements and therefore do not claim land in their occupied systems. They eliminate every threat, raiding and pillaging the surface of an occupied planet with specialized 收割者（地面）s and then moving to a new location once the planet has been thoroughly drained of all resources. It seems that they are not interested in preserving their potential "pasture grounds", which could be a reason for their nomadic and expansionist lifestyle.

Vanduul's family structure is also very distinct from Humanity. There is one tradition that exists throughout all of the Vanduul; once a child reaches adulthood (usually around the equivalent of Human 13–14 years), they are banished from their family. Before they go, the parents will fashion a knife for their child. This knife will be the child's only possession as he/she sets out into adulthood. Consequently, these knives are treasured possessions that they keep for the rest of their lives. They will receive no money, housing, or support of any kind from their former family. Everything that the newly recognized adult achieves starts with the knife and grows from there. Therefore, there is no hereditary transfer of money or influence.

Size Comparison

Diplomatic Relations

UEE

For unknown reasons, Vanduul don't communicate with humans.

Banu

At least one System deep in vanduul space is claimed by the Banu.[22] The Writers Guide (from 2013) points out that the relations between Vanduul and Banu are 'precarious but friendly'.[23] Some clans are trading with planet-states.[24] The extent of trade relations between Banu and Vanduul are unknown to Humanity, since the Banu are actively concealing it.[25]

Xi'an

The Writer's Guide claims that there are 'a lot of unfriendly systems between the Vanduul and the Xi'an'. Some clans have trading relations to the Xi'an Empire. It is not a surprise that Xi'an view the Vanduul as barbarians, while Vanduul view Xi'an as 'manipulators and cowards'.[24]

Religion

Due to the cultural emphasis on solidarity, the idea of higher powers aiding or affecting an individual's life has never caught on with Vanduul society. Therefore, the 'self' is held in high regard, so the closest thing to a Vanduul religion is the admiration of a specific person and what he or she was able to achieve.

Vanduul youth are educated in the lives of exemplary Vanduul of the past. Specifically the choices they made, and how they overcame their environment and distinguished themselves.[24]

Personality traits

From a purely anthropological perspective, the Vanduul behave like classic hunter-gatherers. They are a very insular species. They rarely interact with those outside of their clan, even other Vanduul. If you should find yourself engaged in a conversation (trade) with a Vanduul, they will be all business. They find engaging in pleasantries to be inefficient and insulting.

In combat, the Vanduul are relentless and merciless. In a textbook raid, they will hit hard and fast and never leave survivors. Over the decades, they've adapted their tactics as they've learned the purpose of Human structures. Clans will attack high-value buildings (Communications, medical facilities etc.) first to minimize the chance of resistance.

It is possible for an individual human to engage in trade with a Vanduul although it would be incredibly difficult.[24]

Physical traits and biology

Vanduul are capable of surviving for indeterminate periods of time in the vacuum of space. During firefights with the UEE such as the Battle of Vega II, they have been observed pulling themselves along the surfaces of ships without any protective gear and with no signs of distress.[26]

Language

WikimediaUI-Article-ltr.svg
相关文章: Vanduul language
文件:Vanduul Pictographs.PNG
Ancient Vanduul scripts

Vanduul have a "unified system of quasi-pictographic writing". A translation team from the University of Moscow investigated the Language, although it will take several years before the Vanduul language has been completely deciphered.[1] The language was created by Britton Watkins.[27]

Some words are known, due to a conversion from the performance capture of Squadron 42. According to Sipola (2016),[27] these are (written in the International Phonetic Alphabet)

[ˈkurae ʃalˈjuve:], [ʒaˈlaθ ʔaqˈqaθ:on: ˈminːa::], [iwe:hah:ih:ohʃdavo:hpunahdoh], [ˈkai ˈfisad ˈjusa ˈkujamˌlaχ↗nu::] and [χeχo:lda:ˈvedna::]. He also pointed out that the Vanduul bodies are changed their color based on their mood.[27]

Andy Serkis has stated that the language is very guttural and harsh sounding.[28]

Background

Lore

Note: This section includes several SPOILERS of 42中队 and 星际公民 storyline.

The Vanduul are intended to be a resemblance of the Vandals and Visigoths [29] [30] [31] - or "barbarian" tribes of the 4th and 5th Century [3] (brutal, purely nomadic, war-like, see Vandalism[32]). In Robert's words "We settled on the decline and fall of the Roman empire. But instead of it being the Roman empire, it's the United Empire of Earth, and we've got surrounding enemy alien factions who are analogous to the fall of the Roman empire." [31] You have war on one side where it's pretty simple, fighting against the barbarian hordes much like the legions did towards the end of the Roman empire." [3] He also said: "So we start the game before there's a proper split [between Terra, equivalent of Constantinople [3] and 地球, equivalent of Rome], but there will be a split between the two sides, and then we'll have an in-game event that's like the sack of Earth further on, like the sack of Rome." [3] It is a reference to the Visigoths (sacked Rome in 410) and Vandals (sacked rome in 455).[lower-alpha 1]

Design

" They are scavengers. They don't create their technology, they absorb other race's technology and make do what they want with it. So, they are really really capable in understanding how stuff works and making stuff work for them by modifying it and like combining stuff together. (...) they don't care about [visual aspects] (…) they don't have art (...) they're just out there to basically conquer and absorb and assimilate and just be stronger. That's why their weapons(...) don't necessarily have a consistent style per se as you can very often see some other races and some other technologies inside."
Michal Kozlowski, Around the Verse: Vanduul Blade & Shops 'n Trade [33]

Trivia

  • Chris Roberts wanted the Vanduul to be an homage to the Kilrathi from the Wing Commander serie, hence a feline inspiration.[34]
  • The Vanduul are part of the lore of Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues, where the Vanduul Polearm is the only known remnant of that race, as part of a cross promotion between the two games. Meanwhile Star Citizen includes the Novia Crossbow. This is in part due to Chris Roberts and Richard Garriott working together back at Origin Systems, where already a crashed Kilrathi spaceship from Wing Commander could be found in Ultima.

Footnotes

  1. ↑ A note on parallels with the Vandals, who lived relatively steadily until they were forced by the Huns to cross the Rhine (with the Alans and Suebi) in 409. Afters years of wandering they erected a shortlived kingdom in Spain, then in Carthago. In 455, followed by another roman civil war, they were invited by a roman faction to eliminate the roman usurper Petronius Maximus who was proclaimed the new emperor. He wanted to marry his son to the dead Emperor's daughter, a turn which raised resistance in the roman aristocracy. As the vandalic army arrived at the city, the roman defenders opened the gate without resistance. Petronius was stoned by the citizens or murdered by his own guard.
