Castle Iventorr by Built4ever

"Overall bird's eye view and ground plan for a castle-village, done as a commission for a novel writer. There were specific requirements for the layout, style, building purposes, and location/geography.

The general idea is that an original castle was built over at a later time, similar to European castles, so the original turrets were used for different purposes and built out as such. You should be able to see the original turret in most of the main towers. The barracks tower and armory were left mostly original except for the connecting suspended footbridge. The architectural styles of the later additions and castle village buildings is influenced by Northern European town architecture, Scandinavian timber churches, and, to a small extent, the "Skyrim" series of games.

The big bridge up front to the right I imagined as a medieval suspension bridge, so it has components based on fortifications, Gothic arches, a bit of fantasy, and, of course, some kind of suspended timber structure in the middle, perhaps supported by giant intertwined ropes or some such.

The island itself is very steep and has a number of small tunnels, caves, possible secret entries, shacks for the fishing boats, and just a little bit of sparse vegetation and a few small trees.

Technical description: Done freehand pencil on paper, this is an original design for a castle. Pencils used were F, 2H, and 4H. Then I scan, clean it up, and gently tweak the color. Finally, I label it."

Pelikan Sailing Vessel by Built4ever

"Original design for a small multi-purpose traditional sailing vessel, used for fishing and light transportation/cargo duties, designed with a shallow draft, with option for up to ten rowers when winds are scarce. Design influenced by dhows with lateen rigs as well as Italian and other Mediterranean sailing/fishing vessels. This particular sketch has a fair amount of information about the hull shape and structure, with frame positions drawn in. I also included "lightly-drawn" sketches of typical cargo and the beginnings of a captain and crew, to be continued later. Part of my "obsolete transportation" series."

Galaxium: The Aliens by Blazbaros

"Whew! Finally done! Probably one of the largest pictures I've ever worked on with a cast this large :whew: Its all part of a sci-fi setting created by myself and Hatah-Hater

And to start, here's a brief primer on the setting and races! More will definitely come

Important Terminology

Galactic Confederation of Planets

An interstellar organization made up of a dozen or so races working cooperatively. Established by Laonym to halt the destructive Xarn/Denturi Endless War.

Promethean Relic

Vastly mysterious artifacts from a long dead, unknown race only known as the Prometheans. Those who come into contact with it and those who are able to understand it, at least a fraction of it, are “elevated” to the galactic stage. Species are known to obtain leaps and bounds in technology, most notably FTL. As far as Denturi can speculate, these relics were used to seed life throughout the known galaxy.

FTL

A mode of locomotion that propels a vehicle faster than light. There isn’t any single way to achieve FTL and each race has their own method of doing so. Some examples include: hyperdrive, jumpdrive, folding space and slipstreams.

Races

Humans
A very new race to the GCP, humans are a comparatively small force in the galaxy. While in many of the race’s science fiction stories they play pivotal roles in saving the universe, in reality they are amongst the least consequential races in the galaxy. By the time humans discovered their Promethean Relic, and thus FTL travel, they had already been overtaken by several massive megacorporations that now serve as the pillars of their interstellar government. While more streamlined than a pure democracy, the oligarchy human government has become is still viewed as enormously inefficient by more advanced alien races like the Denturi and the Xarn. This new government is extremely oppressive, viewing the lower class as workers, and workers as nearly sub-human tools to use for profit. For this reason, human space pirates and wayfarers are common in the final frontier.

Currently they are under heavy influence from the Denturi, who play the part as galactic mentors, but it has become apparent they have their own agenda regarding the humans.

Denturi
The most scientifically advanced race in the known galaxy, the Denturi consider themselves caretakers and direct inheritors of the Milky Way. Through their own version of manifest destiny, the race has justified hostile assimilation of many other species, and destroys those that are too dangerous or costly to absorb. Their entire race is controlled by one central government known as the Ninety-Nine, a massive think-tank that is comprised of the ninety-nine most brilliant individual Denturi from the ninety-nine most important fields in their race’s culture. The Ninety-Nine votes directly on every decision, making the government extremely efficient and fast acting. It is said that the Denturi found their Promethean Relic tens of thousands of years ago, which would explain why they are so far advanced in tech compared to the rest of the galaxy. Cloning, teleportation, perpetual-motion, advanced genetic manipulation, and perhaps even the acceleration of other race’s evolutionary growth are all possible and at their finest within Denturi society. Denturi are perhaps most famous for their ability to telekinetically lift things with their mind, the most advanced of them being able to lift heavy objects like vehicles or even small starships and crush them.

Xarn
The age old rivals of the Denturi, the Xarn are a proud race of warriors ruled by a supposedly divine emperor. Much like the Denturi they view the galaxy as theirs to inherit from the Prometheans, but instead of social manipulation as a weapon, Xarn much prefer using force to claim what they believe is theirs. These similar mentalities caused a conflict that lasted thousands of years between the two races that earned the name “The Endless War.” Every race the Xarn have defeated in battle have been either become servitors to the emperor or destroyed; tens of thousands of years of this has lead to a massive section of the Milky Way being dubbed as “The Xarn Hegemony.” Their thousand of year long war with the Denturi has bred hostilities in them toward their green enemies, but also grudging respect, for the Denturi are the only races to ever resist Xarn takeover. The Xarn are powerfully built and value physical might, but are not to be treated as dumb brutes. Their warships are the most powerful in the entire galaxy and their combat-tech is enough to even force the Denturi to steal its design.

Laonym
While the Denturi and Xarn fought each other for galactic dominance for thousands of years, the Laonym were on their own rock fighting to understand and control their powers. Beings that possess incredible telepathic powers, the Laonym were once a group of barbarians that did not seem to understand the odd voices in their head. As their society evolved, they began to realize that the voices were the thoughts of their brethren, and began to use their telepathic bond to communicate with each other with great intimacy. This created a society that was incredibly peaceful, for to a Laonym harming someone they can telepathically read is as bad as harming themselves. With total planetary peace achieved faster than any other race (and arguably, they are the only race to ever truly achieve such a feat) the Laonym turned their eyes to the stars under the guidance of their Empress. With no conflicts amidst their own race, they developed rapidly and found their way into a galaxy ravaged by The Endless War, and sought to mend conflicts with the two races. The Denturi were surprised by the exceptional tech the Laonym had created, and turned their eye to conquering the Laonym; this attempt led to the Denturi being pushed back, marking the Laonym as a massive powerhouse within the galaxy. Eventually, it was under the Laonym that the GCP was created, and “The Endless War” did in fact end.

Zyk
For an exceptionally long time, the Zyk were the most feared race in the galaxy, and by some they still are. Their insectile bodies are capable of consuming anything for sustenance and can handle incredibly harsh environments: meaning they can live basically any planet with even the smallest potential for life. Zyk also have incredibly fast metabolisms and can reproduce at exceptional speeds, having clutches of hundreds or even thousands. Because of this incredible durability, advanced intellect, and incredible breeding speed, the Zyk became the galaxy’s ultimate conquerors. For an unknown amount of time the Zyk went from planet to planet with no central government, instead being controlled by many hundreds of queens each with their own clutch. It was when the Zyk began closing in on Xarn and Denturi space that the Laonym were finally able to get the two races to cease their war, thus forming the GCP. For hundreds of years, the GCP fought against the Zyk forces that attempted to enter their portions of the Galaxy. The war was one that they were losing, until suddenly the Zyk ceased combat and retreated to their own star-systems. This was when many believe the Zyk’s Grand Matriarch was born, a Matriarch capable of exerting control of any Zyk no matter how far away they are from her. No one has seen the Grand Matriarch, but through her guidance the Zyk managed to take the fourth and final veto seat in the GCP.

Zyk, of all races, have the most extreme sexual dimorphism. All Zyk that are not Queens or Princesses are male and have the lifespan of roughly 20 years. Females, however, live to be centuries old and are responsible for birthing generations of Zyk in massive clutches. Despite all of these males at her disposal, Queens are monogamous, and choose the finest male in the clutch to mate with. When this happens, a genetic reaction occurs within the Zyk male, scrambling genetic code and transforming them into a powerful drone with twice the strength, height, and lifespan of a normal male. This genetic scrambling also seems to prevent any kind of birth defects normally caused by inbreeding.

N’tyr
A strange and secluded race, the N’tyr live on a desert planet that has an atmosphere comprised of significantly different elements than most planets with living beings on them. Because of this, a N’tyr outside of their homeworld must where a full-body suit to cover themselves, or risk being poisoned by mere contact of the atmosphere. Even visiting their planet will not yield much information about their true looks however, for the race is heavily guarded when it comes to appearance, and remain entirely covered even on their home planet. Viewing the face of a N’tyr is an act of incredible intimacy, and even a simple touch of their bare-skin could be viewed at akin to sexual assault in human society. They are exceptionally reserved, and come from a society with a plethora of social faux pas; for this reason not much is known about the N’tyr.

Kin Tuhl
One of the most powerful races within the Xarn Hegemony, the Kin Tuhl are proud servants of their overlord race. It is said that thousands of years ago, the Xarn Emperor fought the Kin Tuhl’s Emperor and bested him in single combat. To the surprise of the Xarn, the Kin Tuhl laid down their arms and swore allegiance to the Xarn Emperor. To honor this, the Emperor’s personal guard is made up entirely of Kin Tuhl. The Kin Tuhl are a strong, stoic, and straight-forward race that does not grasp the concept of lying or metaphorical speech. To them, the world should be made as simple as possible, something reflected in both their society and their actions as a race. They are seldom seen in positions of power, but instead work as amazing servants and seconds in command.

Henson
The Henson are an anomaly even amongst the vast number of races within the galaxy, for nothing is known about their genesis, or how they obtained the tech they have. The Henson live entirely on a massive halo-like object that encircles what many believe to be their home planet, but the technology of this satellite outmatches anything that the Henson are capable of creating, and the inside seems designed for giants, not tiny amphibious humanoids. Henson are intelligent and make up for their size with their ability to haggle and speak quickly; their home planet still has most of its resources, making them a very rich race in comparison to the other lesser-races.

Vrali
Most races within the Xarn Hegemony are defeated and either flee or lay down their arms peacefully, and then there are the Vrali. Having lost a war against the Xarn many thousands of years ago, and even having their original planet taken over, the Vrali still managed to carve out an existence through only a mess of scattered colonies. Under the watchful and semi-protective eye of the GCP, the Vrali have managed to fight skirmishes against the Xarn in both the physical and political arenas, winning back much of their lost land. The Vrali are a proud warrior race that values flight and exploration above all else. Their fighter-ships are a match for those of the Xarn, and they are said to be the best pilots in the entire galaxy.

Teek
Another liberated race from the Xarn Hegemony, they were inspired to take back their freedom by the Vrali who had done it before them. In their ancient history, records show that they originated on the same world as the Xarn and they came into conflict frequently. This eventually left them no choice but to flee the planet and find somewhere else to call home, lest they be wiped out entirely. Such a tiring war shaped their current, neutral philosophy, viewing the end-game of all war to be death on both sides and therefore making the whole enterprise a foolish endeavor. It was for this reason that the Teek were able to be oppressed by the Xarn for so long, and for this reason that they still are rarely seen in the galaxy beyond their own space. This does not mean they are a weak species, the Teek are exceptionally strong their genocidal battle against the Xarn has tempered their military. They are long time allies of the Vrali, who have also been oppressed by the Xarn, and often vote with them on any GCP mandates.

Flarg
The Flarg are a race of living crystals cased in rocky shells. While most races had to find ways to overcome mortality or simply live with the knowledge of inevitable demise in their future, the Flarg have always been immortal. For this reason, the Flarg never felt urgency until the Denturi came along and weaponized them for the purpose of fighting in “The Endless War” on their side. While this did work, it did not take much time after the GCP was formed for the Leonym to pressure the Denturi into freeing the Flarg, stating that they were obviously sentient beings and not simply moving war-machines for they gave off telepathic signals. After this, the Flarg returned to their home world, only participating in trading and GCP meetings. They become active in the political arena only when it comes to fighting for the rights of NSE (Not Sufficiently Advanced) races. The crystals that seem to be growing on the Flarg are, in reality, growing out of them and constitute the main part of their body. By manipulating the energy within the crystals, the Flarg can control how and where they grow.

Qilb
Most races are able to be understood in some way, or at least share some kind of emotion with the other races in the galaxy; that is, most besides the Qilb. These truly alien creatures are able to participate in only the most fringe of galactic politics, and do so through telepathic means. They view living things the same way other living things view clay or putty: something to be played with and molded. Their motives are almost entirely unknown. Their planet is a massive ocean of odd amniotic fluid, with a massive brain that serves as their race’s leader at the very center of it. Some believe that the entire planet is a single living entity. Flying near the planet is dangerous, for the race is said to be able to pool together its telepathy to mind control those within its orbit.

Aersht
The Aersht are a small, ursine-like race that are extremely resilient to radiation by possessing a remarkable capacity for self-repair at the cellular level: they never develop cancers, and can survive radiation doses that would make a terrestrial cockroach curl up and die. Because of this, all of their tech is heavily based off of nuclear power with little concern for the danger that it can cost directly or with its waste. Their society has no concept of manners or politeness, for saying anything besides what is on your mind is considered lying within their culture. Something as mild as a “thank you” is viewed as a sexual pick-up-line by their people, causing humourus, if not sometimes disastrous exchanges between diplomats. Their homeworld was destroyed by unknown means long ago (many say it was them trying to tap into the power of their Promethean Relic), and now they exist as a massive fleet that drifts through space. Many Aersht are born and die in space, and view the idea of living on a planet with some level of contempt or at least boredom; for this reason, many Aersht become privateers or even space pirates.

Zianzan
A mysterious people from a planet circling a pulsar. Their bodies are covered in a protective suit, not for them, but for whomever they come into contact with. They naturally generate a type of radiation that is lethal to other lifeforms and being a peaceful species, they would rather not do harm to others. The only ones who have seen an unmasked Zianzan have been the Aersht, who have commented on their likeness as “angelic”. Zianzan are seen as very whimsical, as their natural language involves singing, which sounds to others as crystalline chiming.

Cybrax
Not much is known about the wholly mechanical Cybrax, at least to their origins. Many rumors persist that they are descendants of a species they destroyed in a crusade against organic life, but their world is lush and fertile, almost untouched. The Cybrax instead live in orbiting satelittes connected by elevators. Each Cybrax is connected to a collective mind that constantly updates with new information on a myriad of topics. How they do this across lightyears of space baffles scientists from any alien species.

They are not to be taken lightly however. They are extremely protective of the planets they have colonized and ensure that any visitor is subject to a rigorous protocol that must be adhered to, lest they be ejected from their space entirely. Efficiency is also their highest priority; if one of their kind is slowing down the others, it will be disconnected from the collective. Many of the Cybrax encountered are usually wanderers that have suffered this excommunication.

Byugan
Wingless avians that have a love for exploration and discovery. They were discovered around a star system on the edge of known controlled space, investigating what seemed to be a wormhole. Upon first contact, they clarified that they had actually just traversed the portal from a distant part of the galaxy! They were searching for a means for their race, along with the Kronks, to escape the clutches of the Nex. In return for becoming members of the GCP, they have offered up a great deal of knowledge on advanced terraforming techniques, something that the Denturi have kept to themselves.

Kronk
An amphibious species who are fairly docile despite their appearance. Their sexual dimorphism is of particular interest, as the males are large, but ponderous and the females are less than half their size. They are some of the largest creatures on their planet and have had little need for weapons to protect themselves. This proved to be their undoing when they encountered the Nex, which began to swallow their territory, planet by planet. Turning to their close friends, the Byugan, they plan to escape into GCP space through a wormhole.

A few, however, wish to defend their home territory and have been militarizing their merchant fleets into a burly force to be reckoned with. Their ships, while lightly armed, can take a beating like no other ship can.

Nex
Bat-like creatures hailing from a world bathed in eternal twilight. The nebula that they have claimed for their own dims the light cast by the star inside it, creating an otherworldly atmosphere. As such, they prefer to keep to dark places.

The Nex themselves are the combination of species and subspecies. The Overseers are the nobility, the rulers and officers, who carry themselves in an aloof, yet eerily elegant way. They have exceptionally long lifespans and prefer to eat the raw flesh of creatures. The Drones are a subservient offshoot, who are quite the opposite. They have a tragically short lifespan, no more than 10 years, and are constantly in a state of hunger. They do whatever they can to eat a scrap of meat (even to the point of eating each other), have no need for sleep and work until their bodies give out even before their time is up.

They are a very antagonistic race, currently they are at war with the Byugan and the Kronks over their fertile worlds. Nex space is nearly barren, consisting of rocks they have wrung dry of their natural resources and splendor. There’s is a desperate war, for if they can’t claim new planets, their drone population will turn on each other, then on the overseers.

Intruder
They are not known by any other name, for they hail to no one and attack without provocation. They are not from this galaxy, perhaps some far off, forsaken corner of the universe, perhaps even not even of this dimension. Whatever their reasons are, they are here to wipe out all life they come into contact with, targeting planets specifically where sentient life originated. Perhaps they have a connection to Prometheans and their relics, but none can say."

Other Aliens by Rixshaw

"Other aliens that live in the same universe as Space Clowns and Outer Mimes.

The Star Magicians were a very prominent race until very recently. Possessing technology at a level so advanced it was analogous to magic, they were the highest ranking civilization by default. Despite this they believed in non-interference, aside from keeping the Space Clowns and Outer Mimes in check, they did not spread much father that their home solar system. This is what lead to their downfall, as a member of their race, the infamous Confoundo, made himself, a sizable chunk of their population and their homeworld disappear as his final performance. The only remaining Star Magicians are those who were off planet at the time, and what was once a proud race is now reduced to a nomadic lifestyle, protecting relics of their civilization and hiding from marauders.

The Escape Angels, much like the Outer Mimes, appeared in our universe from another dimension that they extricated themselves from. Masters of escapology, they unlock latches and slip out of chains as a form of honoring something, whether an actual entity or a vague benevolent force or a lifestyle, it’s unclear. In their eyes, the more challenging the restraints/perils they elude the better. Their current goal is to find a way to escape our universe into whatever lies beyond.

The Control Organs might have been an organic race as some point, but currently they’re mostly machinery. Long ago they abandoned manual labor, deciding to utilize their advanced tech to harness the abilities of the Orbital Apes, natives of the many jungle moons of Kebos. With high levels of dexterity and endurance, the Controllers consider them ‘valuable service organisms’. Other races think the Controllers are a bunch of lazy robots with questionable ethics.

The Animated Statues travel through space without ships, landing on planets like meteors. Their natural form is similar to a rectangular prism of marble (or granite or copper or gold, etc), but they have the ability to change their shape as a form of camouflage. Most commonly blending in by imitating the form of the inhabitants, they remain immobile, resting, hibernating, or possibly meditating for decades at a time. It is commonly believed that they can’t move while being observed, but this is false; severely annoy or endanger one of these aliens and they won’t hesitate to punch you in the gut or face. Due to their mineral composition, they are one of the few races immune to being converted into a Space Clown or Outer Mime."

Even More Aliens by Rixshaw

"Even more aliens that exist in the Clowns vs. Mimes universe.

Officially listed as extinct by many galactic authorities, the Gladiautos can be more accurately described as 'being lost underneath the galaxy's car seat'. A multitude of these bio-mechs were created by an civilization to battle for their entertainment, but that society is long since dead, and their creations have spread across the galaxy, often in pieces. Very few Gladiautos are still functional and are considered living antiques. If two of these bio-mechs were to meet, a very violent yet very brisk battle will will ensue before an exchange of limbs, often with the winner getting the more favorable part. Communication between Gladiautons conducted though a very ancient form of wireless internet that only they have access to. They communicate to other species though thumbs-up, thumbs-down, and thumb-sideways hand gestures.

The Atenn-Dii are also considered dead and gone, and with good riddance, too. Almost as ancient as the Gladiauto's creators, the Atenn-Dii specialized in hosting elaborate masquerade balls and parties, often at the expense of the resources of several nearby planets. While at the peak of their culture they very suddenly seemed to die out, leaving behind their vast mansions and castles, as well as some lavish tombs filled with their belongings. Many of these have been looted, partially for the riches and super-tech they contained, but also because people hated them. However, once any being with a face puts on one of their masks the back-up copy of the original owner's mind, personality, and memories will possess them. If enough of these get together, the masquerades will begin anew. These masks come in blue, green, orange, purple, white, black, and violet, and their wearers, both original and new, often base their whole outfit on these colors. There is one that even the newly reawakened Atenn-Dii truly deeply fear; a figure in red, and worse still, the red mask upon their face.

In the early 90's a very popular pet in the galaxy was the Grubling , a nice little eyeless worm creature that was playful, fun, and easy to take care of. They could eat anything, and were great with kids of all species. HOWEVER - if your pet worm somehow ingested blood of any sort it would metamorpihize into it's adult form, the mischievous and deadly Acro-Flea. Originally the pests of a creature so large is was of size with a planet, they would often leap to nearby planets that their host would pass by, but the Grubling pet trade has only expanded their population and range. Often nasty and with twisted senses of humor, Acro-Fleas are known to wreck havoc wherever they go, feeding upon the blood of any lifeform unfortunate enough to draw their attention. Adding to this is the fact that Acro-Flea saliva has a compound that can cause anyone bitten to tumble and leap about like an acrobat, which the fleas think is hilarious.

Not really a species per se, but there is more than one of them. Mysterious in their origin, these giant unbreakable slabs are present in many locales throughout the universe, fulfilling an unknown function. Near us, one is orbiting Jupiter, another is on the moon, while a third one is in Turtleback, Wyoming, outside a gas station. It goes by the name Mo-Lith the Magnificent, and claims to know all. Give it an object that you consider valuable and it can tell you your fortune, tell you the future, or even grant a wish. It would behoove you to be specific; Mo-Lith will twist your wish if it doesn't like your attitude, and even if it does it's often very bored and may lightly monkey's paw your wish for the entertainment value."

Rogue Star Spawn by Rixshaw

"Much like his half-brother Cthulhu, Hastur can create small clones of himself to act as his minions. Unfortunately for him a handful of them have broken from his control and rebelled against him. Now living under a species-wide witness protection program within the local galactic community, these former minions often work as consultants in matters regarding "chaotic fluctuations in space/time", a.k.a. magic. Many carry an Elder Sign in order to ward of any possible attempts at Hastur regaining control over them.

They're also one of the few races to know that Idiot Fluteplayers are more than just a noisy nuisance but the key to one of the greatest secrets of the universe. "

Mushroom, Mushroom by Rixshaw

"The intelligent Fungi on Pluto don't have tech-suits per se. A more appropriate phrase would be 'hollowed out ancestor species with cyber(fungal) implants and control mechanisms'.

How is this possible? Nothing from Pluto rots after it dies. Also these ancient (fungal) beasts evolved to fight off the constant assault of an malign entity referred to as Him, and now with their descendants piloting them, they do so again."

Big Yellow by Rixshaw

"Mentioned previously, the identity of ‘Him’ is actually Hastur, aka The Thing in Yellow, the Golden Shepard, Master of the Slithering Sea, That Bastard, Big Yellow, and many other names that incorporate the word ‘yellow’. It’s kind of his schtick.

Stationed on the moon Charon within the aformentioned slithering sea and served by multitude of Star Spawn servants (essentially small clones of himself), he seeks to conquer Pluto as an important stepping stone to becoming the dominant Great Old One in our Solar System. The ongoing resistance of the Mi-Go and their Ancestor Warriors have been a continual thorn in his side."

Alien Races Vol I by Roojoeus

Poltagamar – Non-humanoid. A sentient species of rugose life form that resembles pterodactyloidea alien with needled beak used for sucking organic liquids to retain their survival. Typically, both male and female groups feed on xeno-plant juices, but younger specimens detect preys and piercing their skin sucking the inner fluids of the host acting as ectoparasites. Although thoroughly unnoticeable, the Poltagamar has single enormous eyeball rotating inside the skull that clings to the skin revealing only the sides of the ocular. The Poltagamars have two wings with slotted feather-like addendums operating as a rudder. The limbs are of a short stature; apparently longer than lizard’s, possessing have adhesive toe pads on all digits that allow them to adhere to vertical surfaces. The digits additionally have long curved claws made the keratin-like structure. Another notable characteristic feature of the xeno-species is eminent sexual dimorphism as males are smaller, robust, and less aggressive than females. Moreover, the sexual dimorphism in the alien can be manifested in the incision of wings differences between the genders. The Poltagamar race evolved on an oxygen-rich forest planet without ice caps – Ozirium.

Servari – Humanoid. Although extremely humanoid and almost identical to human species, they biologically differ as the ear-like growths are utilized for clarion vocalization and eyes are composed of a crystalline material with lack of visible pupils. Yet, the “ears” are more striking than other organs as they constructed in the way the dynamic speaker works. The “ear” locates vocals impending from the mouth and converts it to signaled laud corresponding sound doubled as resonating chambers resembling the sound of the deafening French horn. This kind of sounds usually utilized for communicational purposes mostly during courtship. The physique of the Servari simulates the skeletal structure of Humans and Adamans; however, since the race lays a single egg each year, the females lack distinctive humanoid pelvis and resemble in stature male counterparts. Moreover, such an aspect as the bulging breast also remains within the imagination of the human, since their thorax is completely reduced to the masculine. Typically, the Servari possess multiple complexions that vary from blue, purple and pink to dark green or complete white with visible markings like stripes and spots. Nonetheless, being so similar in physical appearance to humans, some other extraterrestrials can barely spot the difference between Servari and Earthlings. The Servari are experts in genetic engineering and do not hide the fact that they occasionally modify their genomes. Humans were the first race encountered the Servari and both were astonished by confusing similarities between twos and the miracles of Convergent evolution. Nowadays, thanks to their profound understanding of biology, the Servari merge into medical spheres in our Galaxy. The species originated on planet commonly known as Asashan.

Adaman / Akamosh / Anatoosh – Humanoid. The race barely considered alien as the species evolved from primitive ancestors of modern human specimen and Neanderthals on planet Earth that resemble elven creatures from mythology. Due to extreme sapient cognitions, the Adamans left the native planet (the reasons are still dubious) around 2000 B.C.E. The Adamans found a new planet in Polariy system which is located in Perseus Arm of Milky Way called Terera. Under the inspiration of the origin planet, adamans terraformed the new world to look exactly like Earth with the same flora and fauna. The new home is aggressively protected in order not to let extraterrestrial biology influence their artificial natural inhabitants.

Gamal – Semi-humanoid. A bipedal alien life form, with extremely slender corpus leading to a thin neck that supports a large yet light rectangular head with completely black dormant eyes making them look more restrained. Despite their appearance, they are very famous for multiple emotional countenances that usually human-beings cannot experience. An additional notable feature of this race is the reinforced dome of its skull that protects their beefy brain from external impacts. The Gamals are all hermaphrodites; that is that they have both male and female biological features for reproducing. For some unknown issues, most of the Gamals find humans extremely attractive, though both species vary in appearance almost drastically. The race played a significant role in the advancement of xenobiology and xenomedecine, producing new technological commodities for interstellar trading with other xeno-species. Planet – Veynus.

Ghuldut – Non-humanoid. A benign alien race resembling huge slug-like creature, its skin is extremely thin and fairly weak covered in a layer of moisturizing mucus. The species has yellow eyes with dark blue irises. The notable aspect of the creature is multiple teardrop growths projecting from the frontal part of skull utilized for food filtration. Planet – Khron.

Ommo – Non-humanoid. A race of sapient alien critters with elongated compound eyes and doubled mouth-lips where one pair is located horizontally and the other vertically. However, though the uniqueness of the Ommo face, the most notable feature of this race is long frontal limbs used for locomotion and hindlimbs are thrown on the back of the creature utilized primarily as arms. Planet – Tigrass.

Ateik – Humanoid. A genus of tall and masculine race from tirannobiophtalmian family with dark red or orange complexion of a skin made of a translucent membrane. The Ateik race is quite similar to other anthropomorphic specimens, particularly humans and adamans; nonetheless, the species lacks nasal appendages and possesses additional sixth digit on the palms. Although a serene representative of alien life form, its diet primarily consists of a carnivorous facet. The race is known for being second alien species discovered by humans during the Space Expansion. Origin planet – Whike.

Isuth / Qweewie – Semi-humanoid. An aquatic race of sentient species that are highly evolved for underwater existing. The long developed streamlined body indicates a fast swimmer with fins ideal for resisting strong currents and quick, constant movement. All representatives of this unique species manipulate their wing-like fins on the forelimbs and dorsal crested fin not only for rapid maneuvering under the water surface but also for temporal gliding levitation during the high powerful leaps out of the water into the air. The species has identifiable prolonged tail and pelvis lacking legs reminding partially the body of an eel with extremely small spikes consisting of highly toxic fluids. The Qweewie uses its venomous spikes by striking its tail to stun marine prey. This certain alien archetype also characterized by thick skull dome on the forehead that flourishes into a flatten horn that both males and females use to identify each other. The Qweewie maintain their existence on a flooded planet named Qozlon. Like Earth cetaceans, the race evolved from terrestrial ancestors that moved into the waters million years before they were discovered by Humans. Yet, another interesting aspect of these unique alien forms is that the Qweewies travel in space by airing capsule spaceships filled with water.

Dhosu – Humanoid. The prominent feature of this organism is the single eyeball positioned partially inside their anthropomorphic skull thanks to which the race gained the synonymous title – Cyclops. The ocular organ has a shape of a terrestrial pear, the biggest size of which is sit rooted inside the thick skull and actually functions as the brain and flexibly rotates. The long subtle tail helps the Cyclopes to communicate within the species with the help of short horns on the forehead used as the symbol of the biological age. The race also possesses extreme sexual dimorphism as females lack humanoid physical exterior and resemble short crab-like blobs with the small barely visible eye. Moreover, unlike most of the alien species, this race is completely based on patriarchal social grouping as females are mentally degraded and exist only for two years (while males live around 60-70 years) and sequentially perish after giving a birth to the younglings. The Dhosu dwell on the native moon – Kran that rotates around of the planet Paraween.

Haandrai – Non-humanoid. The alien species has tentacular limbs forming highly mobile muscular hydrostats that are usually utilized for food consumption. Their octopi-like body is filled with methane-like gas making them obtain the capacity of air transportation or flight in the form of a floating ball in the air. From the sides of the creature grow two short sprouts which they incessantly flap to help the body to turn and maneuver in the open area while flying. They help pitch their distant bodies and rapidly adjust their altitude, similar to rudders. They are native to planet Elaksh.

Human – Humanoid. The race is also known as Earthlings and Sapiens, taxonomically Homo sapiens; like some other alien nations this particular species is known for being one of the first humanoid race to discover interstellar travel. Due to plethora technologically-advanced gimmicks by utilizing human morality and teachings causing many alien civilizations to grow in intelligence across the Galaxy that allowed the human race to become one of the most notable species in Milky Way. Thereby, most of the tutored aliens mimic humans culturally and ethically explaining the human-like lifestyle. Nowadays, the Earthlings are an extremely well-known and populous race that frightens the apprehensive others by rapid technological development. Because of absolute bipedalism, human females and males (this also concerns the Adamans) have the unique construction of pelvis that differs from other primates. Both races (Adamans and Humans) had a common ancestor that no longer exists; however, the closest relatives of both of the species are Chimpanzees with lower intellectual capacities. Most aspects of human physiology are close to their relatives. The race evolved on planet Earth that is also commonly referred to as Terra.

Kanarake – Non-humanoid. A sapient race that lacks prominent facial features common for humans like, eyes, nose, and ears, making the creature looking quite uncanny for humans. Nonetheless, the mouth of the Kanarake is well hidden in a vertical position, lips of which are perpendicular slats that coalesce into a single line while closed. When the mouth is in the open position it almost identical to the silhouette of flytraps that are common on Earth. Despite the lack of eyes, the alien creatures are capable of observing the surroundings with their skin visualizing the world by striking radio-like waves; thanks to this, the Kanarake can estimate the size of each object and its shape, even material it is made of by being miles away from an individual. The race was genetically altered when they were invaded by the Hanoy race and barely look the same as they used to. Planet – Darakoom.

Valk – Humanoid. The top of the skull is elongated constructing triangular shape. Interestingly, the skull protects not the brain of the creature that is quite usual for some of the species but hollow organ responsible for air filtration, the brain, on the other hand, is prolonged throughout the whole body and resemble complex filaments. Males usually possess longer skulls than their female counterparts and more varied colorations. The Valk race is native to planet Matoo.

Nokherent – Non-humanoid. A huge tick-like alien creature with extremely thin limbs and according to this issue, the low-gravity-native race cannot support their own weight on other planets. As a result when the species interacts with mainstream galactic society, they rely on specific routes constructed specifically for them to move comfortably without utilization of levitation gadgets. The Nokherent race decline to involve themselves in the affairs of other nations and remain politically neutral, preferring to follow orders but not instruct governmental issues. The species possesses two oral cavities one located in front near main eyes and the other one located on a long tubular stalk on the back of the creature; the latter mouth has the capacity of drawing inside the body and disclose up to the length of the whole body. The species evolved on planet Argh’t.

Kluaster – Semi-humanoid. Little is known about this specific alien representative, though it is well-known that the Kluasters are the only none-biological race and are presented in the form of synthetic androids created by Okalaps in their own image and likeness. Nowadays, the Kluasters live on the separate planet known as Azurq, located in the uninhabitable zone.

Tograt – Humanoid. Normally called as “spiders” among Human race, this xeno-species has small distinctive tusk-like appendages projecting from the sides of their skull; these tusks change dramatically as the species ages, becoming more prominent as they reach maturity. Likewise, the thin horned distinctive crest atop the skull covered by pycnofibers adopted for the display signals during mating and used in head-butting contests. Younglings usually lack the crest completely and start to grow them as they reach the teenage years. Most teenage representatives wear tattoos and marks to indicate their certain status in society. The notable characteristic feature of the Tograts is the collection of six forelimbs (arms), and two hindlimbs (legs), and six narrow-set eyes of varied sizes located on the carnivorous skull. Being the apex predators on their native plane known as Adackock, the Tograts produce sticky glue-like mucus from their mouth for catching prey. In modern culture, this redundant peculiarity is quite rare among disciplined individuals.

Kanarn – Humanoid. A green carnivorous race with compound, yet human-like, eyes. The race is quite tall with elongated skull decorated with two tusks; interestingly, female have even longer and more robust tusks. Their head skin is adorned with leathery plates utilized for breathing. Like Ha’Zamirhs the Kanarns were also retrieved from almost complete extinction, though the species dwelled isolated on artificial space-raft for hundred years. They lost their native planet Kanaria to Adonno race that gobbled it. Sargaster Zander Timerime was one of the most famous Kanarn who was responsible for saving Earth and other parts of the Galaxy along with adopted human kids – Lizz and Iling Timerime. After his death, humans located the very same raft and with grateful temper started the terraforming of new planet for the species – Oitow, to continue their existence on it. Nowadays, the Kanarns and the Humans have the most intimate and friendly relations; moreover, these two species are the only nations that do not have special passport control to enter the territory of both.

Zarmaroks – Non-humanoid. An alien race with a rounded head covered by multiple eyes in a ringed position helping them to observe surroundings from all angles without moving the head. Additionally, the head of the creature can retract their head down fusing and creating a solid figure with the body and hiding the vulnerable neck inside the osseous shell. In fact, the Zarmaroks do not have a blind area and a frontal side of the body and can locomote irrespectively of directions. Planet – Petepuj.

Human – Humanoid. The race is also known as Earthlings and Sapiens, taxonomically Homo sapiens; like some other alien nations this particular species is known for being one of the first humanoid race to discover interstellar travel. Due to plethora technologically-advanced gimmicks by utilizing human morality and teachings causing many alien civilizations to grow in intelligence across the Galaxy that allowed the human race to become one of the most notable species in Milky Way. Thereby, most of the tutored aliens mimic humans culturally and ethically explaining the human-like lifestyle. Nowadays, the Earthlings are an extremely well-known and populous race that frightens the apprehensive others by rapid technological development. Because of absolute bipedalism, human females and males (this also concerns the Adamans) have the unique construction of pelvis that differs from other primates. Both races (Adamans and Humans) had a common ancestor that no longer exists; however, the closest relatives of both of the species are Chimpanzees with lower intellectual capacities. Most aspects of human physiology are close to their relatives. The race evolved on planet Earth that is also commonly referred to as Terra.

Ciltail – Non-humanoid. A race of huge six-limbed alien with the sharp beak, additional teeth, and pincers. The species has four eyes that sit rooted in the sockets, two on upper, and two on lower jaw. In contrary to other intelligent extraterrestrial life form, the Ciltails have a long muscular tail with spikes and club offering an effective defense. This race comes from planet Surum.

Ha’Zamirh – Humanoid. Noted to be once extinct, the Ha’Zamirhs are a native nation of Mars, unable to mobilize during the mass-extinction event and leave their native planet, the race undertook the scheme to hide in the supporting-life capsules (tanks) experiencing some kind of cryopreservation. They were found millions of years later by humans (specifically by Aria Timerime) in tanks under the Martian surface and brought back to life hence. The Ha’Zamirhs are tall usually reaching 12 feet high with both slender and muscular body. The skull of this species is almost identical to Humans and Sadjits; moreover, the race resembles humans in terms of basic skeletal structure and position of limbs. Nonetheless, the Ha’Zamirhs have elongated brush-shaped appendages (bristles) protruding from the sides of the head, reminding the ears, curved strongly upwards that are actually modified teeth located in their upper jaws that grow outside the skull and used to strain air like gills.

Quarlatan – Non-humanoid. Commonly known as the race of superstitious aliens with hollow boned structures inside and long canine snout. The notable feature is that the race has six small, hidden deep in skull, glittering galaxy-blue eyes and protracted auricle attachments extending from the sides of the critter’s head playing the role of air conditioners. This helps the race to cool down during warm days or vice versa. The Quarlatans are of high stature, higher than humans, though the species commonly walk on all four limbs, between times standing on the hide limbs and utilizing the front ones as arms. Being professional quadrupeds and employing knuckle-walking and at the same time practicing efficient bipedalism, the Quarlatans are one of the best-suited creatures to locomote in an arduous environment. The Quarlatan race dwells on home-planet named Porchanta.

Nirnil – Semi-humanoid. This species is known for its huge long almost crocodilian skull having two or more tentacled appendages protruding from the back of their heavy head. Characteristic features of the race include short, yet sharp teeth; moreover, due to the brutal natural selection, the Nirnils evolved robust body shape in same ways similar to the gorillian with dark scales. Despite carnivorous appearance, the species is a herbivore, quite tranquil, and amiable. The race considered as the most peaceful representative of galactic nations. Planet – Ka’bloth.

Yadaan / Yaddad – Humanoid. A race of short resilient with thick domed skull dwarves with four forward-looking eyes allowing them to perceive binocular vision. A rare race that unlike others xeno-species are based on silicon biochemistry, because of this biological construction the Yadaan usually dwell within the extremely hot locations that reach boiling point. However, the race can still be surrounded by the environment with plus 70° F on average no longer than for 30 Earth minutes. The species is bipedal in form with agile physique allowing them to run at the high speeds and the stature can be easily distinguished by their more slender shape. The Yadaan’s physiology represents them with elongated ear-like echo-locaters obtruding into the skull and decorated with small, yet precarious spikes. Their bipedal pose ends with long thin legs with bony cloven hooves. The eyes of the Yadaan is completely black and lacks tear ducts, the smallest eyeballs are located atop the biggest. The most distinguishing feature of their biology is their incapability to filter oxygen; thus, they cannot breathe outside their home planet Trk. The Yadaans are completely reliant on the cybernetic implants and bio-suits. Additionally, the mainstream galactic society constructed specifically for them comfortable glazing chambers on space bases where they can walk without the usage of their suits. Like Gamals, the Yadaans reproduce hermaphroditically.

Exalanth – Semi-humanoid. The species that is based on the crystal structure of an organism is known for being the first alien sapient critter encountered by humans and managed peaceful extraterrestrial contact. Unlike other galactic nations, this specific alien form became the first official race to help humankind against the distraction of their home planet. The Exalanths have two segmented "arms" located vertically on their upper body and mouth with six lips constructing a vertical line with moving adjuncts. Planet – Sada Baw.

Rokoll – Non-humanoid. Known to be the smallest civilized alien that is capable of efficient flight using four exoskeletal wings. These wings alternate rhythmic thorax beating back and front and twist like the helicopter’s turbines helping the muscles to squeeze and lift the creature into the air. Uniquely, the Rokoll almost never lands and can be found standing on the surface almost only twice in its lifecycle: during courtship and laying eggs. The race can be found throughout all mainstream galactic bases and stations as it is the most common alien. Planet – Wileid.

Adonno – Non-humanoid. For unprepared human eyes the creature appears as a living planet; however, actually, are sapient parasites with a colonial way of living composed of many individual bacterial beings possessing entire planet. By covering the whole planet the parasites re-transform their planetary host growing tentacles; thus, creating the living planet, initially named by Ateiks as Adonno. Nowadays, it is believed that the race is entirely extinct; however, some declare that the status of the creature’s existence is still unknown. For eons the only known Adonno was Helayar, considered as a god-like image by the Hanoy race. It is unknown how and where the parasites that construct Adonno evolved and how exactly they function, as the biology of this species is a mystery. This alien race (particularly Helayar) was responsible alongside Hanoy for creating The Galaxy Union and enslaving by enthralling intelligent life forms, including humans.

Fegarian / Naya – Non-humanoid. A massive critter with articulated body shells and dual heads, each having an individual mind. It is yet unknown how and why exactly this intelligent species evolved such particular anatomical anomaly. However, xeno-scientists and of course the scientists of their own representatives assume that doubled head growths was an evolutionary contingency and remain constant due to helpful usage for alimentation and communication. The body, though only partially reminds insectoid, still has more avian features, the bottom part of which slowly grows into serpent tail splitting into spine sail. As the second most characteristic feature of the Fegarian the sail is located right on the hump prolonging to the tip of the pelvis. The sail is supported by dorsal spines from neck to lumbar region and also utilized for regulation of the temperature when the cooling support in the body is in critical level. The sail also can work as hearing support, like the tympanic membrane in human ears. The aliens evolved on highly radioactive planet Shangatan, or also commonly known as Fegar or Fuagar.

Caath – Non-humanoid. Sentient plant-like critter with eusocial behavior. Although eerie looking, the appearance of this alien quite deceiving since the Caaths guidelined by peaceable divine faith and against cruel inclination. This certain race utilizes suction bells on tentacles to hunt; at the end of each hunting bell there is beak-like structure with mouth; moreover, each tentacled structure allows each appendage to hunt and function independently. Unfortunately, the Caaths cannot exploit the interstellar travel as biologically they cannot leave the soil they grow on. Sequentially, they entered into symbiosis with Valks who found this species and tote them in their space-ships. The Caaths’ native planet is Aquila, the planet with high atmospheric density.

Ulm – Non-humanoid. The highest sapient alien race that is known to the Galaxy, reaching 120 feet above the ground. The critter has six dual limbs; each limb twined into two identical semi-limbs, that is, an arm possesses doubled forearms that projects from the humerus. The Ulms have three vertical mouths allowing them to drink, eat, and communicate through vocalization at the same time. The upper body of the Ulm is decorated by secluded hump located directly right under vertically disposed neck used to collect residual water and save the host from the dehydration as the native low-gravity planet Galos is mostly strewn by deserts. Through collecting water the hump conjointly used as conditioner cooling down the body at the hottest times of the day. The race evolved to survive in dried areas additionally having huge five eyestalks that help the Ulms to see through dust storms. The gill-like layered holes decorate the sides of the body and thigh to release hit air in order not to lead the critter to overheat.

Hanoy / Jamblah / Crabrask – Non-humanoid. Used to be the most uncanny race known to Galaxy. The Jamblahs are an ancient race that is capable of terraforming planets and other cosmic objects like moons. They are also known for being probably the earliest representative that entered the interstellar travel. These aliens are a highly advanced cyborg-like race that was responsible for the founding of The Galactic Union and controlling a vast empire with more than hundred habitable star systems and inhabited anywhere near the center of the Milky Way in order to regulate energy deriving from the center of the Galaxy. Moreover, this kind of within central location promoted the Hanoy to be close to any alien race spread throughout the Galaxy. It was long before the humans could observe real anatomy of the Jamblahs as the race always locomotes in highly sophisticated mobile capsules supporting life even in open space. It is known that the Jamblahs was the very first race to greet Adonno planet and took it appearance for a god – Helayar, who manipulated them to conquers more inhabited worlds and spread their propaganda across the Galaxy. Yet, before the extinction, Ha’Zamirhs constructed shield field devices working on zero energy surrounding the solar system once being invisible for millennia for humans. This structure has long protected Earth and Mars from detection by Jamblah appliances; however, later was accidentally destroyed by humans; thus, beginning the invasion. Although even the Hanoy confused to say which planet was their historically original home, some scholars declare that they originated on the planet known as Al’Dograt that is now considered dead.

Wartinach – Non-humanoid. An aquatic, massive in size, squid-like alien species possessing a resemblance to the early illustration of classical alien invaders. The race evolved on the planet completely covered with highly toxic saline water that highly noxious for other representatives of alien forms. The planet is named Karhaje after the sound the Wartinachs make during the greeting that echoes word “Karhaa”, meaning “I stand before you”. The species has five tentacles with usually asymmetrical length extend below the elongated torpedo body. The multiple sets of eyes are embedded on the ventral outward of the flesh that can withstand the harsh pressure of their native planet’s depths. The race is known for being the first ones to join human resistance groups against Hanoy’s terror.

Android – a mass produced synthetic beings created by humans in their own image and likeness.

Xalgoi – Humanoid. The Xalgoi species are an alien race native to the Rulai which was discovered during the war with the Hanoy. Being one of the latest being discovered, the majority of the race still maintains the primitive dwelling in city-states. The Xalgoi generally stand higher and are of slighter build opposite to humans. Their bioluminescent translucent exoskeleton consists of a great amount of ammonia molecule that represents creature in green coloration. The distinctive feature is harsh vinegar smell that other species barely tolerate.

Zrat – Semi-humanoid. The anthropomorphic figure and bowl-resembling head make the Yackhs being fully adapted to a civilized, high-technology lifestyle. The race usually has a pale or dark gray complexion with rare hair-like bristles using a tough vertical beak for absorption of hard alien vegetation. Although the species indicates the presence of the male individuals, the Zrats mostly reproduce asexually using the parthenogenesis as the major form of reproduction. The unfertilized eggs develop into a new female individual, whereas the fertilized eggs later hatch into males (heterogamy). The fertilization is a rare yet important process as it helps species to favor rapid population growth if needed. Despite the unusual breeding pattern, the genotype of the species does not perish. The planet Tashay is the native planet for the Zrats.

Loluchue / Lolochue – Non-humanoid. Small blue-shelled creature; biologically, the race is inclined to advance technological appliance; thus, the race is very important for maintaining the lives of other nations. Physically they resemble truncated turtle fused with penguin and octopus with three legs for locomotion, two grasping frontal limbs, and four eyes (two of which set high within elongated eyestalks), the skull elongates into a short beak. Originated on planet Argo.

Iwor – Non-humanoid. A huge species that is known among other extraterrestrial nations and humans as one of the neat and slowest critters. The Iwors evolved oh high-gravity enormous planet – Askanamazat that shaped their unique physical appearance. They have large elongated bodies with six elephant-like legs making them incapable of fast locomotion. The front body coalesces into imposing vertical structure on which small head disposed. The mouths of the Iwors are posted on bifurcate tentacles that protrude from the bottom side of the chest. This type of jaw location helps the creature to facilitate their existence without bending as it can be lethal for this species.

Brionackle – Non-humanoid. The representatives of this unique species absurdly parallel to lizards with avian features that has elongated boned beak protruding from the frontal part of the skull crucial not only for feeding and vocalization but also for display and identity. The courtship display plays a huge role for this race, as they have various biological tackles, like elongated mock-limbs on their backs and skull crest. Yet, the most notable feature of the Brionackles is the possession of four genders. That is, one sex of the cycle transmits the embryo into the womb of another and so on until the end of the birth. Thus, a child may have more genetic differences. The race dwells on the wild moon named Falcklora that rotates around planet Sigar.

Juith – Humanoid. The Juith is an anthropomorphic insectoid with the humanoid posture. Their domed head made of thick boned carapace reminds some form of a mushroom hat with merged segmented plates of thicken fur. Although it is possible to assume that the species lacks eyes, these certain organs are located on the top of the thick armored head ringing it. A unique attribute of the Juith is of course their elongated dual wings that are utilized for flying and showcasing during the courtship. Juiths are credited with playing a major role in construction of the first mondial military force in the Galaxy.

Legopan – Semi-humanoid. The skull of the Legopan evolutionary modified. Tall in height and short in length, the head of the critter mimics the extinct Earth’s Ceratopsians in resemblance. The species possesses seven varied in sizes eyes, three of which located on the upper jaw. The lower jaw, on the other hand, is characterized by bulbous horizontal ridges with two additional eyes on each. The jaws sport a pronounced short beak. The primary front limbs resemble humanoid in appearance, yet the most distinctive feature is the presence of gigantic claws located on secondary front limbs and hind limbs where they grow straightly upwards to keep them sharp. The Legopans evolved on the ice-cold planet named after the species – Legopania.

Ze’lubek/Hondayan – Humanoid. They have elongated horns and on the tip of their skull protrudes a rostral bone resembling a large bony frill of an Earth triceratops. This race is covered by dark pink fur and blue scales based on utilized to protect them from the weak radiation of their dwarf red sun. The evolution on their home-world (moon – Kerivan), to deal with the lack of sunlight, created the dark almost completely black flora and fauna what helps the biosphere to absorb a huge amount of energy coming from the flaccid star. Due to this issue, the Hondayan race is exposed to radiation outside their system, while visiting other worlds, and can lead to drastic consequences. Eventually, the species became carriers of a new disease, unknown to galactic science before. Named the Dwarf Star Syndrome, the malady resembled cancer; however, spread from one individual to another like a plague wiping out an enormous amount of Hondayan population. To date, the creatures are on quarantine and the cure for an unusual disease has not yet been invented.

Elskoran – Non-humanoid. The alien race with an amphibian lifestyle that resembles an antelope in physical appearance. The race is known for having six eyes, two of which are located on elongated eyestalks making the head look similar to a hammer-head shark with short proboscis protruding from the top side of the frontal part of the skull merging with a tongue. This shows that the species feeds on plants as it derives its nutrient requirements from them, hence a nectarivore. The Elskoran are quadrupeds; nonetheless, additionally, retain four flexible limbs extending from their necks in front of the body and two of them located near the anus. The race dwells on planet Paraween.

Korell – Non-humanoid. With their short stature and general tendency to escape from danger, the species earned themselves the title of one of if not the timidest race known to galactic order. The species possess the quadruple set of eyes frankly merged into stretched vertically proboscis resembling the long neck of a swan. Hailing from the planet Ciffarian that is located in the Cygnus Arm of Milky Way, this race with multiple limbs was discovered by the humans quite recently. Although being a newcomer to galactic rules, the Korell race apace earned the place by maintaining crucial importance to shipbuilding by supplying sparse resource that is unique to their star system – Angelic Tungsten.

Deviant – Non-humanoid. The Deviants are the latest discovered species by the galactic order. This species is well known for being the only representative that is composed of energy rather than matter. Little else is known about their biology and how species persists and subsists as getting in touch with them is currently impossible. The status of the creature at the moment is dangerous for the galactic state.

Jostarick – Semi-humanoid. A sentient race of towering, huge, and bipedal anthropoids with three eyes monitoring the surroundings from deep sockets. The species moderately resemble terrestrial rhinoceroses with, hanging from sides of the head, elongated wisps. The race has partially dangling skin ranging from dark purple to light blue that adorned with folds that contain toxic glands. All representatives of this species are a mono-sex race and reproduce during the spawning session when 'males' gather in one area and some of them lay eggs the others release sperm to fertilize eggs. Despite the specific role of each male, it can vary during the next spawning season. The race evolved on the same planet alongside Manickors – Domaz. Moreover, it is almost impossible to claim the upsides about this coexisting as the Jostaricks tend to violently antagonize their relatives with whom they had common ancestor millions of years ago. Acknowledging themselves above the Manickor race the Jostaricks are driven by the prominence of slavery in their culture and even now it is still an unquestioned feature of their social requirement. Thereby, one can see the illegal slave trade on their home planet.

Unnen – Humanoid. A huge anthropomorphic blue genus with lengthened leafy skull-plates utilized for communicational purposes. With the body big as two grownup men, the weight of a bear, the Unnen are considered to be the tallest human-like alien. Additionally, the race bears prominent evenly oriented feeler-appendages located at the back of their straight spine. Planet – Dwa.

Orae – Semi-humanoid. Physically, the Orae resemble large three-legged wasp merged with a human torso. They have dual mouths; the main one with lips located on the skull and the sanguivorous that grows on their waist resembling a firm proboscis. Their multiple eyes are hidden under the translucent membrane atop their head which protects the vital organs. Originated on planet – Metaban.

Ercelad – Non-humanoid. An alien race with long proboscis-like tentacle protruding from atop the skull used as a primal preeminent arm. The representatives of this species locomote on three legs, one of which is actually highly elongated pelvic appendage evolved for walking. The species is native to planet Zharris.

Zhaui – Non-humanoid. Also known as hoppers, the Zhaui race is a species of short two-legged alien that utilize hopping as a means of locomotion. Their ‘front limbs’ are actually highly evolved jaw-mandibles that are used not only for food acquisition but also to hold and manipulate objects around them. The Zhaui race has one cyclopean eye located in the center of their skull. Planet – Charabir.
