The Yasu'aun are an order of- and formal title for- Ethereal followers of the philosophy of Yasu'caor, known colloquially as Seekers. They perform a role in the T'au Empire somewhat similar to the Imperium’s Inquisition.[1]
Overview
Yasu'aun, literally meaning the-finders-of-the-truth-that-hides, are solitary mystics who wander space of interest to the T'au Empire, said to be able to pass unseen by members of other castes as they follow paths only Ethereals can comprehend. On occasion they are known to unexpectedly join T'au expeditions, never taking direct command but their direction always followed, as their presence is welcomed and held as a great honour.[1]
Seekers train diligently to transcend love, hate, sadness, and all other emotions, learning to instead perceive connections and anomalous elements – be they events, objects or individuals – so as to create harmony, spiritual and otherwise. They listen, learn, and conduct events by intuition alone in order to better tune the Greater Good.[1]
Skilled combatants, Seekers are trained in martial styles like the arhat’karra and accrue retinues of exceptional allies.[1]
