Humans

Description

Not sure, should lore and description be the same thing?

Lore

A species with humble origins, growing up on their home planet Tellune before eventually advancing into the space-age. After a significant boom in civilian access to space, the commercial applications of space stations in Auri, the sister system to Geminae, became readily apparent. A series of stations operated by various companies were created, with the latest and most modern being Space Station 13, operated by Nanotrasen.

Pzyphoza

Description

Psyphoza are a species of extra-sensory lesser-sensory fungal-form humanoids, infamous for their invulnerability to occlusion-based magic tricks and sleight of hand.

Lore

Psyphozas hail from the deep caves of 5513-E, a bejungled moon orbiting the gas giant Thetis. Curiously, Psyphoza have evolved powerful and mystical psychic abilities. As they are blind, they depend entirely on their psychic abilities to navigate their surroundings. Some researchers believe this to be impossible for natural evolution.

Psyphoza culture is deeply rooted in superstition, mysticism, and the occult. It is their belief that the morphology of their cap deeply impacts the course of their life, with characteristics such as size, colour, and shape influencing how irrespectively lucky or unlucky they might be in their experiences.

Although most Psyphoza have left behind a majority of the especially superstitious ideas of their progenitors, some lower caste members still cling to these old ideas as strongly as ever. These beliefs impact their culture deeply, resulting in very different behaviors between the typical and lower castes

Diona

Description

Dionae are the equivalent to a shambling mound of bug-like sentient plants wearing a trenchoat and pretending to be a human. Commonly found basking in the supermatter chamber during lunch breaks.

Lore

Much like their fungal compatriots, Dionae hail from Thetis's moon, 5513-E. They are a species of intensely curious sapient plant-bug-creatures, formed by a collective of independent Diona, named 'Nymphs', gathering together to form a collective named a 'Gestalt', commonly vaguely resembling a humanoid, although older collectives may grow into structures, or even floating asteroids in space.

Dionae culture, for the most part, is nomadic, with Parent Gestalts splitting off a bud that then goes off into the world to explore and gain knowledge for itself. Rarely, a handful of Gestalts may link up in an agreed upon location to share knowledge, or to form a larger structure.

As a collective of various individual nymphs with varying experiences, names can become rather tricky, thus, Dionae Gestalts settle upon a single core memory shared between all Nymphs most commonly something from their younger years and expanding over time as they relook upon their memories, though it's not unheard of for a Gestalt to fully change their name if they find a fresher memory represents them more.
