The Twice-Departed are a society of "outcasts", mostly made up of Jin, though they are accepting and welcoming of nearly everyone willing to provide service for their community, and several people of many different races have joined them since their founding. However, they tend to be wary of outside interference from the sector at large, fearing that calling too much attention to themselves will disrupt their way of life, or that of their allies the Belaul. | The Twice-Departed (so named because they are once removed from the original [[Departed]]) are a society of "outcasts", mostly made up of [[Jin]], though they are accepting and welcoming of nearly everyone willing to provide service for their community, and several people of many different races have joined them since their founding.

The Twice-Departed were founded in 212 AE by Viraj Ne'hoti, a Jin man who was a former A'Khwa-Zhe - what are now known as Soulhunters in the Blood Ark - and pilot of the Li'gon, the ship the Twice-Departed now reside in. In the culmination of the Second War of the Ishvana, Ne'hoti knew that the Li'gon and its crew could either die with great honor with the rest of the fleet, or escape unnoticed, saving himself, his pregnant wife, and his fleet. Knowing that his ship had no chance in the battle and was merely a distraction to draw fire from the Ark, Ne'hoti chose to escape and crash land on the planet Paperweight, in flagrant disregard for usual Jin customs. | The Twice-Departed were founded in 212 AE by Viraj Ne'hoti, a Jin man who was a former A'Khwa-Zhe - what are now known as Soulhunters in the Blood Ark - and pilot of the Li'gon, the ship the Twice-Departed now reside in.
