Society and Customs
The Ursioids have a pack mentality, due to technological standards on Torajii up until the members of 284th squadron introduced them to technology the best they could do was ride Drakla-steeds and use primitive weapons and slug throwers. Despite their late start the Ursioids, like the other construct races are quick studies.

All construct races worship the Great Zuu and consider it holy ground that is not be tread upon by any race other than the construct races.

The construct races were not given technology beyond simple slug-throwers and primitive weapons. They are however quick studies if introduced to new concepts and designs.

History:
The Ursioids are a genetically engineered race created from grafting human and Garu-Bear D.N.A. together through Sith sorcery, they have lived on Torajii for '10000' years since their creation at the hands of Darth Bane during the aftermath of the galactic civil war. It wasn't until the members of the 284th discovered them that the construct races had seen real technology. Through the efforts of the members of the 284th all of the construct races are beginning to live as one tribe united together and learning to use technology.
