"Commander, our riders have spotted resistance! Permission to regroup!"
"Request denied! If you are not prepared to deal with the rebels, you will pay for your incompetence, with your lives!"
"We realize that every time you wish death upon us, it is because you care. It shall be so, commander!"

―A typical Argorian conversation^[src]

The Agorians, also spelled Agoreans^[1] (originally Argonians) ^[2] were a species in the Breegus System. Agorians were known for being a race of aggressive warriors, who had a never-ending thirst for battle and bloodshed. They would always start campaigns to conquer entire civilizations at the slightest provocation, or for no provocation at all. They also operate a massive, traveling coliseum-ship called the Agorian Battleplex in the Korthos Sector, where live blood sports and gladiatorial combat were viewed by large numbers of Agorian audiences. Species like the Vullards or Fongoids, despite being non-aggressive, were held in particular contempt by many of the Agorians, who perceived them to be 'weak'; as such, the Agorian military started unprovoked invasions against Vullard and Fongoid settlements on a regular basis. They were sometimes found mounted on Agorian beasts, known as Agorian riders.^[3]

HistoryEdit

Pre-Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of DestructionEdit

Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in TimeEdit

After Captain Qwark escaped back to Quantos with some Fongoids, he asked if there were any races in the galaxy that despised Nefarious and his goons. The Fongoids (either on purpose or by accident) suggested the warlike Agorians and even got the Agorians to pick up Qwark and take him to the Agorian Battleplex to discuss an alliance. Ratchet smelled something bad about the idea, but Captain Qwark ignored the advice. Despite Qwarks efforts and the Agorians hatred of Dr. Nefarious, the Agorians apparently had no real intention of doing anything about the Nefarious problem and instead had become a gladiator (partly Qwark's fault because he told them was a blood thristy warrior).

When Ratchet went in search of the Obsidian Eye, he had to fight off Agorians who were attacking the planet Lumos in order to get help from the Vullards with locating it. The Agorian Riders were the chiefs of their race, and had to be eradicated before Lumos could be secured.^[4]

At the same time, Captain Qwark found himself entered into the Bronze Cup at the Agorian Battleplex, and required Ratchet to help him through it.

Later on, Ratchet had to travel back in time on Morklon to save a Fongoid village from being destroyed by Commander Argos, a famous Agorian leader.

Agorian Biology Edit

According to the Intergalactic Society of Evolutionary Biologists, Agorians were the only known race to stop evolving in the known universe, and no signs of change had been witnessed in known history. Agorians had large upper bodies but tiny legs, however these legs are strong enough to help propel them across the battlefield. Agorians were also born by the mother laying eggs similar to Earth reptiles. Agorians apparently had many Glarf-Knells, a type of organ found in Agorians.^[source?]

Relationship With Other RacesEdit

The VullardsEdit

The Vullards seemed to be a favorite for Agorian aggression, as numerous Vullard colonies were invaded, as well as their homeworld Lumos. The Agorians seemed to attack them because the Vullards tended to be nonviolent, making even bigger wusses in the eyes of the Agorians. However it appears the relationship has cooled down after the Vullards gave the Agorians Vullard built Fusion Turrets for use in the Agorian Battleplex, causing the Agorians to cease their war with the Vullards to focus on their new enemy, Ratchet. It's unknown if they are still in this current position.

TacticsEdit

Agorians are highly dangerous and resilient threats on the battlefield, capable of devastating attacks from close-quarters to long range. Explosives such as the Negotiator or the Constructo Bomb with the Skyburst and Barrage upgrades have been very effective against these enemies. The Constructo Shotgun is also a good choice, especially if it has the Choke and Galvanic upgrades.

TriviaEdit

Let's just stomp around until we squish it!

This trivia section (or part of it) needs improving and should ideally be integrated into a behind the scenes section and main article with the trivia section eventually removed or reduced. See the talk page for further information and to discuss the exact implications of these improvements.
Once the trivia has been removed or appropriate improvements have been made in accordance with discussion please remove this template.

The Agorians once had referees for the Agorian Battleplex, however they killed them all one summer.
When exposed to red mist, an Agorian would go berserk.
The Agorians had an 'honour system' when it came to arena battles. Although it was changed because the arena battles didn't fit the system. The new Agorian code of semi-impenetrable honor could be found in the Hall of Knowledge.
The Agorian was an unlockable skin in Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time.
The Agorians did the Running Man dance while a Groovitron is activated.
Because Agorians weren't particularly intelligent, they hired Terachnoids to do their organising and build their technology for them. Whether this included their spaceships and Hydra Tanks is unknown.
According to the Intergalactic Society of Evolutionary Biologists, Agorians are the only race to stop evolving and have made no evolutionary progress in all of recorded history. This implied that they were one of the oldest species in the universe. This is most likely a parody of the Vogons of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy written by Douglas Adams who also stopped evolving.
Despite their underdeveloped legs, Agorians were capable of surprisingly fast bursts of speed, making them deadly in close-quarters
There was a mini-game on Insomniac Moon where Ratchet could choose two classes of Agorians-one with armblades or a clusterbomb (and as more skill points were completed more classess were unlocked-like the one with a shield called phalanx and the ones that had the arm mounted flame thrower gun), customize their appearance and then pit them against four rounds of Nefarious' robot goons. If he lost he was unable to try again until he died or teleported to another section of the moon. If Ratchet's Agorians won they would dance at the customization area and a message would say "Soda and popcorn for all!".
While their height, along with many other characters was unknown, it could be assumed they were as tall or taller than Captain Qwark - as seen in the cutscene just before he and Ratchet teamed up against the War Grok. However, Qwark was bending down slightly so this is unconfirmed.
Famous Agorians often had titles in their name, such as Ortax the Merciless.
Agorians were the most frequently seen enemy in GrummelNet weapon previews. The only other seen enemy were Nefarious Troopers.
Agorians seemed to have incredibly powerful stomachs, as they could be seen eating their own bombs and not even appearing injured in the least.
The Agorian diet is unknown, but at the Battleplex they are seen downing sodas and popcorn seemingly without limit.
Captain Qwark said that the Agorians hated Nefarious.^[source?]
When fighting in the Battleplex Arena, the Agorians sitting in the audience had little detail.
Lumos may be the Agorian homeworld, due to their falling back to the Huron Abyss, and Agorians having control in the Korthos sector.
