Name: Tek Druids

Theme: Pacifist Diplomats

Faction Affinity: Multisoul (first idea was Omnisoul, but i thougt that would be a bit too close on the Sophons Omniscience)

-They get a small happyness bonus for every race in peaceful relationship plus a WIND bonus for every ally. 

-They also provide a share of that bonus for each ally in return.

-Any faction at war with the Tek Druids suffers a happyness malus, the more factions at war, the greater the malus for each.

Population Bonus: Happyness

Gameplay be like: 

The Tek Druids are the friend you want to have, because having a good relation gives you a bonus (besides trading and stuff) from their affinity, even more when you are allied.

On the other hand, they are the enemy you dont wont to have, because your population will hate you for being at war with them, even more when they are outnumbered.

That makes them a diplomatic force to be reckoned with and a backbone in any forming alliance.

Lore:

The Tek Druids are Exilers from a variety of Races. Humans, Sophons and others. They overcome all racial difficultys by joining to believe in the way of "Tek". Which is basically done by upgrading their bodys with cybernetic limbs, eather as a replace or just added ones. 

Though upgrades with enhanced combat abilitys are possible, its usualy forfeit because the Druids believe in peacefull solutions.

When forced into a war, the Druids rely on a very defensive style, forcing the enemy to exaust themselves on their shieldings and strong armor. Because after all, there is always hope that, if the enemy cant beat them, they may join their cause.
