Ghergasym

Ghergasym today

"Conquest by Commerce."  That is the faith of the Ghergasym.  Their every breath is taken only if they see it as a profitable action.  In fact, should one of this race ever see their life as a drain on its financial fortune, by edict of their faith that individual is expected to commit suicide.

Ghergasym are the very heart of selfishness, even going so far as to kill any family members (including a spouse) should they calculate that such a act might increase their net worth by a least twenty percent.  This is just one of the decrees found in their holy manuscripts.  A Ghergasym staunchly believes that its chance of achieving admission into their version of the afterlife is directly proportional to its personal fortune.

Many planets have banned the Ghergasym from setting foot on their soil, as any act, no matter how heinous, is utterly condoned and encouraged by their faith as long as a large enough profit is the result.
