Shas'ui Lorresa Korva

The T'au Empire (pronounced "TOW" as in "WOW"), also spelled Tau Empire in older Imperial records, is a rapidly expanding, multispecies xenos stellar empire situated within the Imperium of Man's Ultima Segmentum, near the Eastern Fringes of the Milky Way Galaxy. It lies within the reach of the Astronomican.

The T'au Empire was founded by the T'au caste called the Ethereals, who lead the T'au Empire in the name of and in accordance with the utilitarian philosophy they have named the "Greater Good" (Tau'va in the T'au Lexicon). A large and growing number of other intelligent, alien races have allied themselves with the T'au within the empire.

The empire has suffered many raids from the Orks, and also seems to lie in the path of several Tyranid splinter fleets of Hive Fleet Kraken.

The T'au (Imperial binomial classification: Tau tau), also spelled "Tau" in older Imperial records, are a young, humanoid and technologically-advanced intelligent species native to the Eastern Fringes of the Milky Way Galaxy. They are fighting to expand their small, but rapidly growing, interstellar empire and extend a philosophical concept they call the "Greater Good" to all the intelligent species of the galaxy.

The T'au claim to be a peaceful species when possible, asking if others will join their cause voluntarily instead of fighting against them. However, if their peaceful overtures are refused, the T'au may well decide to conquer a planet and add it to their growing stellar empire for the Greater Good, searing the flesh from the bones of anyone who stands against their benign intentions.

T'au society is divided into a number of castes, each responsible for managing a specific aspect of their civilisation. The T'au's central motivating ideal is that everyone in their empire, regardless of their species or culture of origin, will work for the collective betterment of everyone else, an almost mystical philosophy that is embodied in the Greater Good.

The T'au are the dominant species of the T'au Empire, an interstellar polity which is also composed of several other different intelligent species, including the Kroot of Pech, the insectoid Vespids of the world of Vespid, the nomadic psykers of the Nicassar and many others.

However, there are now several Human septs in the empire derived from conquered Imperial Humans or Humans who voluntarily joined the T'au Empire because they were impressed by the concept of the Greater Good. These people are known as Gue'vesa in the T'au Lexicon and they are considered amongst the most vile of Traitors and Heretics within the Imperium.

The T'au are a relatively young species (it has been only 6,000 Terran years since Imperial Inquisitors first noted that the T'au had only just mastered fire and the wheel), and they have evolved rapidly over the past few standard millennia. Unlike other intelligent, starfaring species, the T'au have made remarkable leaps in technology and now represent a real threat to Imperial domination in their region of the galaxy.

The T'au's physiology is closely tied to their society, with the T'au of each caste effectively being a subspecies of the larger T'au race. This was initially a result of adaptation and evolution to suit the different environments each group of the proto-T'au species found themselves in on their homeworld of T'au, although interbreeding between the castes was later forbidden by the Ethereals.

The T'au are humanoid in shape, although they have hoofed feet and four-digit hands (three fingers and one thumb). Their skin is grey-blue (although this can vary in pigmentation between T'au septs and colony worlds), rough in texture, leathery, and exudes almost no moisture. Their faces are flat, wide around the eyes, with an "I"-shaped slit running from the center of the forehead to where a Human's nose would be.

T'au vision is considered slightly superior to that of Humans -- their visual spectrum extends a little more into the ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths. However their pupils do not dilate, giving poorer depth perception and providing slower vision focusing reflexes than Humans, particularly in low light conditions. The olfactory organs of a T'au are inside the mouth.

Physical strength and size varies between the T'au castes with the Fire Caste being the strongest of their kind, roughly the size and slightly weaker than an average baseline Human because the T'au homeworld has gravity slightly weaker than that of Terra.

Only two female T'au have ever been illustrated. The first, Commander Shadowsun, appeared to have a more Human face than male T'au; being smoother and sleeker with larger eyes, a nose-like facial feature and a "Y" shaped facial slit. It is not known, however, whether Shadowsun is representative of all female T'au. The second known T'au female, the subject of an Imperial dissection by the magi of the Adeptus Mechanicus, had the facial characteristics of a male T'au.

The T'au do not possess psykers and as a result have little knowledge of the Immaterium beyond its existence. This gives them some level of resistance to Warp-based powers affecting the mind, but it offers little, if any, protection against physically-manifested offensive psychic powers. This is because the T'au have virtually no psychic presence in the Warp. To a Daemon or any psykers possessed of the witchsight, they appear as a shifting will-o-the-wisp rather than the burning fire that represents a Human's soul. As such, T'au can never possess or develop psychic powers.

The T'au are largely unaware of the perils of the Immaterium and for this reason have conducted research into the nature of the Warp on Medusa V, however, the conclusion was reached that further research was unfeasible, and that "the Warp is no place for the Greater Good and is best left to those foolhardy races who cannot pull back from that terrible realm."

Ethereal Caste members also have a diamond-shaped bony ridge on their head. It is believed by Imperial scholars that through this organ the Ethereals exert a pheromone-based or latent psychic control over the other T'au castes to keep them focused on the Greater Good, but this is mere speculation, and no evidence of this has yet been found.

Due to their notable absence of psychic ability, the T'au have no equivalent to the Navigators of the Imperium, forcing them to travel at sublight relativistic speeds. Their interstellar vessels therefore take much longer than Imperial vessels to traverse the vast distances between the stars, which is one reason their empire has expanded relatively slowly over the centuries.

T'au warriors receive only limited training in the arts of close combat, usually depending on Kroot mercenaries to fight in the horrible melees so common in 41st Millennium battles. However, due to the T'au's superior range of vision in the electromagnetic spectrum and a predilection for patience, the T'au have proven themselves to be extremely efficient sharpshooters with the ranged plasma weapons and railguns they primarily rely upon.

The T'au tend to look upon other intelligent species as backwards or misguided. Before the commencement of hostilities they almost always try to reason with their opponents and establish some kind of agreement that will make the use of military force unnecessary. Noted exceptions to this policy are T'au battles with the Orks, Tyranids and the forces of Chaos, with whom the T'au have little to no diplomatic relations. This is due to the fact that the T'au see no way to reason with them, and do not want them in their empire.

Shas'ui Lorresa Korva is a tau girl who managed to fatten up to the point of being an immobile fat blob, by age she is already sexually mature. She is a veteran of many combat operations using battlesuits. So she got fat because she tried out new rations on herself on her own initiative. She has regretted it ever since.

By nature, she always tries to talk about her high military status, she likes to give commands (especially now about giving her a soda or other treats), she especially likes to sometimes brag about her experience in controlling battlesuits. And she REALLY doesn't like it when there is a conversation about her essentially zero mobility due to her weight (1200 kg), and especially the fact that she now won't fit into any battlesuit.

Now she lives permanently in her own exquisite residence, where her drones constantly scurry back and forth on business. She herself is constantly in one large room where she eats/sleeps/does work (remote work via an interface to support the Tau Empire's military networks, she is proud of this work)/rests. In addition, her drones often wash her (given her mass, this takes a lot of water and time), because of this she is essentially constantly naked (at most, she only has a bra on her giant fat tits), plus this is also because her body temperature is generally higher due to such weight.

Her mobility is so essentially zero that the only thing she can move is her fingers, and with difficulty, but turn her head (on which she has beautiful long red hair, the drones, by her order, especially carefully monitor her hairdo). She is very unhappy with her weight, she has tried to lose weight many times, but in vain, deep down she dreams of losing weight. But she hides this, saying that she is already "happy", because she can work for the good of the Tau Empire.

Well, and most importantly, for all her military strictness, in reality she is incredibly shy and awkward. This is especially expressed in the sense that she is still a virgin, this really pisses her off, because she did not have time to try sex before she became so fat.
