With the cure of the genophage and a renewed effort to rebuilding Tuchanka, the Krogan people are undergoing a renaissance unseen since their pre-flight days.
Urdnot Wrex still leads the now-named Krogan Dominion. He governs over a uniquely krogan government system best characterized as ‘federalized-feudalism’. Some local control has been turned over to clan chiefs who run their regions as they wish, subject to oversight by Clan Urdnot. Government institutions are slow to develop but there is a renewed emphasis on restoring Tuchanka and establishing a relatively peaceful co-existence with the galaxy’s powers. Wrex’s power is bolstered by the clear signs of krogan prosperity and family-building under his reign.
Krogan Honour Names
Among the krogan, a new naming practice sprung up after the Reaper War: the honor name. With the cure of the genophage, many children born to previously sterile mothers were given a third name to remind them and all krogan why they were able to live at all. Males receive the name ‘Mordin’ while females receive ‘Shepard’. Clan Urdnot and those closest to them follow this naming convention the most and, while not universal, has quickly gained traction to become a new krogan custom.
The custom has even spread to adult females who adopt the name ‘Shepard’ as their honor name after their first viable brood. It began with shamaness Urdnot Bakara Shepard, the first to be cured of the genophage and from whom the cure was manufactured. She is revered as both the godmother to all krogan children born after the genopage and as the spiritual leader of the krogan people at large. As such, she is able to temper the voices of those krogan who desire to steer them back to their pre-Krogan Rebellion days and provide both support for Wrex’s progressive policies.
