When I read the resources on the Ryzom website about five years ago -- I didn't know about the lore at this time -- I chose Matis because it looked like they would be more independent, seeing themselves above the two factions; I had no desire to choose sides until I met a group of people I enjoyed playing with. Come to find out, they are the most devoted followers of one of the factions. Not only that, they are also prideful and arrogant such that they compare to the ultra-wealthy class.
I would not participate in any event that forced me to fight on behalf of the Matis. In fact, I would actually spend money to change my race, were it possible.
Just because we are one particular race, that doesn't mean we have the same ideals and best interests of that race in mind.
