The Gaurusha species, now extinct, were a highly respected, elder and only non-hominid member of the Sanatana Sarvatra Alliance in the Thea galaxy. Known for their intelligence and distinct culture, the Gaurusha contributed significantly to Thean history and society. They were wiped out by the Prakas in the Fourth Great War.

The most famous Gaurusha, Samrat Tatradeo’s leadership and achievements brought prominence to the species following their victory over the Dirghams during their second invasion, in the Third Great War.

The Gaurusha were known for their high intelligence, which facilitated their active participation in Thean society and politics. Their culture and religion possessed what appeared to be the most archaic, foundational motifs of the sanatana sarvatra system. As a once prominent species, the Gaurusha are depicted in various forms of Thean art, literature, and folklore, reflecting their historical importance and the collective memory of their existence.
