Zoro

Zoro, also known as Zoro the Reformer, or Zoro of Asteria, was the first of the Five Great Reformers. Zoro's writings survive in a collection of texts compiled by historians, now known as the Teachings of Zoro of Asteria. The influence of Zoro is now seen all across politics, religion, and society itself.

Teachings of Zoro of Asteria
It is uncertain whether these texts were authored by Zoro himself or by his fabled students. Evidence of the existence of Zoro or the Kingdom of Asteria is rather scarce due to the destruction of the Library of Alexander.

Zoro wrote of the existence of one supreme diety, which was controversial during his time, as multiple planets each had hundreds if not thousands of religions and dieties. The convergence of several religions into a global few strictly monotheistic religions has resulted since.

Zoro wrote that people should transcend their natural conditions and become "over people". Through this struggle of transformation, people would eventually gain enlightenment, and the ability and duty to rule over those who did not transcend.

The idea of "over people" has been interpreted as a drive to rule over subordinates and thus conquer their planets and establish domonion, an early justification for the Dynastic Wars.

Zoro is also thought to have ushered in an age of slavery and subordination, where the eventual Caster nobility established control over the Kappa Dynasty and the surrounding systems. Zoro's teachings may have created an entire race of humanoids, a combat class, and specisist tensions throughout the galaxy.
