Khessam Hierarchy

The Khessam Hierarchy is the political entity that rules the Khessam species.

A theocratic state, the Hierarchy is ruled by a religious leader called the Kelraas. The power of the Kelraas is absolute; the Hierarchy does not tolerate diversity of religion or politics. Dissent is strongly repressed.

Historically, the Hierarchy has maintained a policy of total isolation from the rest of the galaxy, though those restrictions have been relaxed in recent decades under Kelraas Pelrak-Foraas LVII.
