before anything, I am sorry of this massacer of the english language, if you see any errors in gramatic/spelling usw. please do tell me.
Backstory
The Jecha are a race made of tiny particles that are held together and bend together into shape regardless of what shape the were smashed into, for an equal exchange of there liveforce. This mystic force is known in the rest of the univers as Teleconnect Force, it is thought that an ancient ship that had masses of this force onboard once crashed into their home.
On a lonley sun somwere on the edge of the galaxy there once found itself a creature made of sand thinking. After a few hunded years there were already hundreds of this beings building houses on there small island on which the sun never set.
In a few other hundred years, tribes fought many kinds of battles, some over technology, others over who had the better warriors. But in time they slowly united under (then) two sacred beings, their sun and the immaterial substance that made this sandy soil hard enough to plant plants and hold their sandy bodies together.
In the Industriel age the churche took in a third holy being, gravity witch they found handy to use as an energy surce, and as a weapon but after seing what the power of this weapon that they nearly couldnt controlle it was they decided that, with a singel voice, that this weapon should never be used in any form of agression.
This held on to this day, were the back then primitiv weapon is now broken down into controlable pices and ready to use.
This day
This is writen after the Church had build 3 ships out of their homesystem, the whole civilation of the Jecha now lays in this 3 ships that always are near enough that this 3 giants can aid eachother.
The Jecha now united under the church still follow their roots and are a nomadic folk that wanders the univers as mercanary's and traders.
Juna, the Churches headquater
After the planet and the floating island were turned into the Shipforge and the Shipmother the sun Juna, the heart of their cultures turn came to be turned into a ship.
Fena, the ShipForge
This massiv Forgeship has all the valuable of the minerals that layed in the homesystem of the SandChurch loaded and is ready to massproduce all kinds of ships

, this, thing had the mass of a giantig GasGiant... ore... a medium one and a planet... no time to write in here anymore, I must find somthing out!
A Mercanary of unkown origin
The [Embassy](https://forum.cosmoteer.net/d/11742-the-embassy)
After the Great Invitation was send from the Embassy the Church send the Diplomat Shona to the Embassy to sign the contract to become a official partner with the Embassy
Ground forces/Body's of Jecha
The Jechas Ground forces are made of much less that for example human groundforces, because the rather unique bodies of the Jecha they have near complete imunity of heat, and cold only slows them down, BUT that also has a big drawback, an EMP wipes out the last week or month of memories, and it shouldn't be to hard to find a weapon to destroy theyr liveforce, teleconnect, compleatly.
This is one of the reasons why the Jechas troups often have strong interference devices on, that in case such a weapon was used, would save them.
On ground warfare the Jecha make use of their old taktiks, bodys and weapons, the do use kinetik weapons and Laser guns but the main weapon of trained squads is a 3,5 meter long and 10 centimeter wide and hollowed out staff that they also use as shield by bending theyr form to get close to the enemy.
Because they don't have any vital organs it is really hard to kill them in one attack, wich a suicide unit of the church makes good use of.
A Jecha can talk by vibrating the particels in a certain way to imitate sound, some of the best diplomates are said to be abel to simulate other sounds just as easy as language.
Government
The Churches system still relies of the old rules of competing that brought them forwoard much faster than most culturs, the head of research must beat a competitor in a test for points and time, the admiral must compeat in a shipfight and a fleetfight (simulated of course) and if the folk thinks they need a new ruler the old and the new must get themself a team of all kinds of experst to compeat in a fleetbattel with real ships and projectiles that they build up with a limited amount of money.
anyone who is found out to cheat in any of this test is made to be reborn

I know this is a diffrent folk and all, but today I have seen how the punished someone who violated one of there rules... this race apperantly belives that theyr soul resides on this forcfield that holds them together... but the still just trew this poor cloudlike thing that was one of them, one of the Jecha, into a tube out of glass, were it, the cloud, just fell like dust should, and somthing with the mentality of a newborn came out again, after I asked what they did they told me:" It was the equivelent of taking what holds us, for you your bones and nerves out and puting it back in." I don't think I can sleep tonight...
Morals and Ethics
Altough the Jecha are a warhungry race if they find surving members of the enemy they will take him prisoner and if the prisoner was a strong ore brave warrior they will be send home with a ship of honor, build only for warriors of the race they are of.
The Story of a nameless mercanary
log of the Captain, day 2640
the last entry was 1 whole month ago...I went into a small skirmish at the edge of the galaxy... I thought it was just a small job, but there came a whole fleet, hundreds of fighters some friggats and and even somthing that I now know was a Destroyer.
I woke up today, near me were clouds, clouds of dust and gases that talked, they explained that they were from a system somwere around here, and the maps showed it was there to.
They also explained to me that they found my way of fighting exeptional and thats why they decided to repair my ship, and improve it a bit if I want to, but I declined, you are my ship, and that stays so...
Log of the Captain, day 2641
today they told me were I am at the moment and what we are doing here.
They seem to tank a certain gass above a gasplanet... I was never somone who learned much about mining, but this gas, even I know it is usless.
Log of the Captain, day 2642
It Looks like it is time, they are bringing us to their home... I don't know what to expect, by now I realized that they were new merc's that appeared out of nowere, made jobs and never stayed to long at a system... they also have a city if the rumors can be trusted... I hope that one part of that rumor is false because I always wanted to know how such a big city must look like...

This city's gravity gets stronger and stronger the fourter you go into it, in of this things, Shona was its name, told me that they live longer the higher the gravity is, it appears to be becuase the energy that holds this clouds named Jecha (Note to self: never let anyone find out that for a moment you think that this giant cloud could be one of them...) isn't straignt as much when they get compressed by gravity, they also appear to diefy gravity...

I spent most of my day in the room given to me when we arrived, there don't seme to be any other rooms like mine, made for a being like me to live, so they a) build it or b) knew somone like me was comming before I even tool the job (edit after a few days of thinking, how many races exist there that are simulare enough that they already had a visitor like me and this room is just used again
log of the Captain, day 2647
I decided to look around the city once more and noticed how there are machins to make this foog, can't be forges, exept they are all around the city.
log of the Captain, day 2648
I am leaving this place tomorow, they are nice... clouds but the culture is to diffrent, I will still download all the data that I am allowed to for information.
I will write into tomorows log what I learnd about them
log of the Captain, day 2649
There "Homeland" aperantly isn't the whole planet but just a island that floated always in direct sight of the sun, thats probeply why they pray to the sun to, come to think of it, I have never seen them pray to anything, how do they look when they pray, it could also be that they only pray in that church ship that I have read about, I should have looked at all of this 3 ships... no use to cry now.
log of the captain, day 2650
here are my thoughts about them at this point in time, tomorow I am going to the point on wich maps show there homesystem, wich dosn't show up on radars...
They may seem like warhungry babarians but do value honor that bindes races, truth that never changes like a black hole bends light and reliability like the sun that never left them...
log of the captain, day 2651
the whole system... mined out... not a speck of any type of metal in the whole system... and the star... gone... planets... all hollowed out...
