Hirogen relics
- "The way a creature behaves when it is wounded is the key to its destruction". - An Alpha Hirogen
Hirogen philosophy and lifestyle is almost totally based around one major activity: hunting. The hunt is the most important part of Hirogen life, and absorbs most of Hirogen activity. Prey which put up a struggle before they are killled in the hunt are considered "worthy prey". The Hirogen think that these prey make better trophies. The weaker, less cunning prey are considered pathetic prey, and give no satisfaction or challenge to the hunt. To get food, it is speculated that the Hirogen eat their prey. It is also apparent that the Hirogen like to learn as much as possible about their prey if they are captured alive. Because their entire lives are spent hunting, little time or resources are left for research and development. The Hirogen are nomadic. They have no home or base of operations. This was not always the case however. The Hirogen were once a great civilization and an advanced culture.
