Cluros, or Qolaarosh is a Kolari Thakolarivaj social mechanism that gradually became a pan-Orion philosophy by the year 126,000 BCE. Today it is still practiced by many Orions, though not all. Cluros is analogous to Klingon Honor and Vulcan T'plana Hath- a philosophical, construct to bring social order to a passionate, ofteb violent species. Unlike Logic or Honor, the Orions don't ostracize those that don't follow it- merely the ones that claim to and then defy it. Those who “play the game” are required to play by the rules, as the notoriously contract-oriented, Libertarian Orions view Cluros as an opt-in social contract. Following Cluros is similar to the Ferengi Rules of Acquisition: Cluros is a guide to success and a successful follower of Cluros is a successful Orion.
Though it originated on Kolar as an acceptable, formal social conduct for the Kolari Qaj-Courts and was probably born out of Courtesan culture, adaptations, revisions and omissions across the Orion Colonies have personalized Cluros. Like the Orion people, Cluros itself can have a high degree of individualism and interpretation. There are a few tenets to the philosophy which the vast majority of Orions adhere to (save for the Xo'a Kulkaadi who often reject Cluros.
