Home Planet Name:Home Planet Location:Home Planet Description:Planet History:Colonised Planet/Moon Name: Europa Colonised Planet/Moon History: The Lluatle arrived late on the scene and have only just started to get their foot in the door of the Sol System. As such, their only outpost so far is their satellite ship orbiting around Europa, which they are in the early stages of terraforming. Race Name: The Lluatle (Hluatleh) Race Physical Description: Bird-like humanoids, they stand slightly taller than humans. (around the height of an ostrich). The males tend to have bright plumage wheras females have drab colors. their appendages are a pair of wings with an added forarm. Both the feet and arms are prehensile. Race Disposition: The Lluatle, as a whole, are a friendly, outgoing species and enjoy positions involving people. They are adept at learning languages and make excellent liasons, traders and entertainers. They enjoy such activities as music, dance and weaving. Popular sports include a game similar to aerial soccer played with a frisbee like ring. Tech Level: They are not the most technologically advanced, but what they lack in technology, they make up for in connections. Anything Else?: They are not so much interested in taking over earth as integrating themselves into the solar system (Europa and Earth) and trading and spreading their culture to the natives.

Tharn scholars have undertaken to catalogue, summarize, and translate relevant Tharn history in extensive and excruciating detail and precision for Human consumption, so that Humans may better understand Tharn and not distract the Tharn from the Quest by constantly asking stupid and tedious questions.
Home Planet Name: Tharnhost Home Planet Location: Nowhere Home Planet Description: Expunged
Race Name: Tharncancer Race Physical Description: Tharncancers are cancers of the Matterplant just like Humancancers. Tharncancers are much smarter than Humancancers, though, since Tharncancers have much better brains and artificial intelligence augmentations, as well as a much longer history and larger library of knowledge. Tharncancers have eyes and appendages just like Humancancers, but much more durable epidermal layers and sharp clawed digits for the killing and consuming other cancers, particularly nonsentient iterations. This feature of Tharncancers is now largely obsolete since the development of large scale slaughterworks and synthesized nutrients. Race Disposition: Tharncancers don't want to bother Humancancers unless Humancancers have knowledge useful for Tharncancer Quest, which Humancancers don't because Humancancers are stupid. If Humancancers leave Tharncancers to research and procreation and, Tharncancers will be happy to leave Humancancers to waste time and get eradicated by Matterplant immunity. Race History: Tharncancer scholars have decided to share a brief history of the entire Matterplant, so Humancancerkind may understand itself better.
Tharncancer engineers are still unable to observe existence prior to Matterseed growth, but barring new information, this ignorance is inconsequential to the Quest. Observable existence begins with the sprouting of the Matterseed, which continues to grow as the living and Matterplant. With the progression of still-inevitable-slow-death, the Matterplant, being very-potent, curdled its fluids to form functioning near-redundant organs, systems, and organelles, in that order. Tharncancer scholars believe this choice indicates the Matterplant is pleased by extensive and unique variations of color and mass, preferring this to the art of uniformity.
The continued march of still-inevitable-slow-death, however, eventually allowed the accumulation of flaws in the Matterplant’s biology to reach the critical point at which complex microsystems give rise to rogue impulsions. Tharncancers are unsure of where and when the first iteration of cancer occurred, but as with any fractal, growth was exponential. Tharncancer engineers estimate that Tharncancers emerged around the billionth local iteration, and are not willing to speculate about placement within the whole scope of Matterplant existence.
The Matterplant, being very-well-informed, has probably become aware of countless cancerous iterations, given the vast quantity and variety of immune-response organs and organelles detected by Tharncancer engineers so far. Prior to final expunging, Tharnhost itself was subject to several immune-responses, each eliminating large percentages of cancer iterations.
Tharncancer scholars were understandably horrified by these revelations about the still-probably-futile-existence from Tharncancer engineers. Thus, after a brief period of pruning, the Quest was begun. Early endeavors were clumsy, as the Tharncancer engineers did not yet fully understand the true nature of the still-probably-futile-existence. But Tharncancerkind was fortunate to emerge in a mostly-numb locality of the Matterplant. Great progress was made, in defiance of the dominant pace of still-inevitable-slow-death, proving the merit of the Tharncancer Quest against the still-probably-futile-existence.
Sadly, Tharncancerkind was reminded of the very-well-informed and very-potent nature of the Matterplant when Tharnhost was at last expunged in its entirety by an immune-response during breakthrough research into rotation along unobservable axes. This was a great setback to Tharncancer engineers, and it took much expansion of still-inevitable-slow-death to recover. But Tharncancers learn their lesson, and greatly increased expansion and procreation programs, and have from then on ensured that all research is performed with many redundancies. Losses to immune-responses have been minimal despite the large-and-widely-distributed resources of the Quest. Tharncancer existence is still-probably-futile, but Tharncancers are comforted by the fact that Tharncancers have assuredly the best method for realizing the dismally-small-hope-of-success.
Colonized Planet/Moon Name: Exohost 227 (Mercury) Colonized Planet/Moon History: Exohost 227 was selected as a host with a primary function as a high-energy research station. This Exohost’s secondary objective is to expand the Tharncancer population and intelligence, its tertiary objective is to disseminate information about the Quest to cooperative local cancer iterations.
Tech Level: Tharncancers, being able to call on vast reserves of intelligence, have created many great technological marvels, which must surely be incomprehensibly impressive alongside the meager accomplishments of Humancancers with only a modicum of intelligence at their disposal. Tharncancer scholars suggest Humancancerkind pay greater heed to developing its own artificial-nearly-infinite-signal-processors and searching for unobservable-depths with hypergyros if Humancancerkind wishes to escape its even-more-probably-futile-existence.

Home Planet Name: Darnas Home Planet Location: In the Bruen System Home Planet Description: It's covered with vast rain forests and has a very humid and tropical climate. Planet History: The Planet Darnas had been known as the Emerald of the Bruen System due to its lush tropical forests and rich resources. Though renowned for it's beauty Darnas was also notorious for being a very dangerous planet. Most of the life forms that lived there (both plant and animal) were known to be carnivorous. In this environment, the Skerahk thrived, becoming one of the top predators on the planet. When the Skerahk developed tech to enable them to get off the planet, they continued their climb up the galactic food chain. They became mercs, selling their skills to the highest bidder. Colonized Planet/Moon Name: None [ Race Name:Skerahk Race Physical Description: The Skerahk are a reptilian in appearance, somewhat resembling a humanoid version of the Terran Velociraptor. They are covered with small, fine, brightly-covered scales. Race Disposition: The Skerahk are a warrior race, who hold honor , strength and cunning in high regard. They love to drink, fight and gather trophies of the hunt. Tech Level: Their technology is more geared towards weaponry (mostly hand to hand, though they have some decent firepower, though they don't rely on it) and fast transportation. Anything Else?:Male[/b}

Home Planet Name: Tritan Home Planet Location: On the edge of the Galaxy Home Planet Description: Reddish and blue in color due to massive rocky desert and giant ocean encompassing over 75 percent of the planet. Planet History: Tritan is home to three sentient species, The nomadic rock warrior race The Moleg, the ingenious and unbalanced mountain and cave dwelling Mnilbog, and the imperialistic and amphibious race of Monar. Originally, the three races were isolationistic to one another, keeping to their own and unwilling to co-operate under any circumstance leading to a massive dulling of the races interplanetary evolution. It was only after a massive shortage, and war for naturl resources that the three races finally decided to form an alliance. Under The Alliance Of Three the entire planet prospered with the eventual recovery and expansion of the races.
Colonised Planet/Moon Name: Titania, moon to Uranus Colonised Planet/Moon History: The first of supposedly many sattelites to be colonised, terrforming has only just been finished and as of now only serves as a relay point between the Sol System and Tritan hosting foreign delegates and colonists.
Race Name:Moleg Race Physical Description: Hulking humanoid rock people standing at an average of 8 feet tall. Thanks to Rocky carapace, the Moleg retain super-human strength and defense but lack greatly in speed Race Disposition: The Moleg were originally a race of nomadic warriors foragin through Tritans harsh desert, evolving along their surroundings and growing their natural carapace. What they lack technologically the Moleg more than make up for in fighting skills and honor, known to be unable to lie under any circumstance due to species honor code. Despite menacing appearance, The Moleg only attack if provoked or forced. Surprisingly, the Moleg are known for some of their world's greatest comediennes due to a comedic philisophical look on life underneath heir warrior's code.
Race Name:Mnilbog Race Physical Description: Short scaly humanoids averaging at 3 to 4 feet tall with luminescent eyes and short spiked tails Race Disposition: The most ingenious species on their home planet despite their belittling appearance The Mbilnog have created the most optimum technologies on their planet and are responsible for the planet's inter-space exploration. They are known for performing life threatening and otherwise pointless experiments all for the sake of advancing sciences.
Race Name: Monar Race Physical Description: Amphibious humanoids averaging at 6 feet high with webbed hands and feet. The Monar communicate through minor telepathy also allowing them to psionically control others. Race Disposition: The Monar ruled the entire ocean of Tritan and most under sea life through their empire and psionic control. The Monar define themselves by their total and intricate laws and law systems, almost making it a religion of sorts. Due to such zealousness the empire nearly collapsed if not for Moleg and Mnilbog inductees to think 'outside' the box to rethink laws from different points of views. The Monar also posses photographic memory working well into their status as lawyers and politicians in the empire.
Tech Level: Just enough to travel interstellar thanks to Mnilbog tech, with only 90 percent of the technologies adapted for use by other species though they have perfected inter stellar travel for all species amongst other technologies like trans-communication and weaponry.
Anything Else?: The Tritan races have long since thrown aside Xenophobia after their great war and are very interested in meeting new species in hopes of spreading their Alliance and gathering resources/technologies.

***WORK IN PROGRESS***
Home Planet Name: Vestibula Home Planet Location: Fourth planet from the star Home Planet Description: About the size of Mars. Lower gravity than Earth. Planet History:
Colonised Planet/Moon Name: The Narthex have their eyes on Mars because they think the rust-laden stone is pretty. Colonised Planet/Moon History:
Race Name: Collectively called the Narthex, but each individual may be referred to as a Narthos (m), Narthe (f), or Narth (n) Race Physical Description: Bipedal with a thick stabilizing tail that's almost like a third leg at times and, with muscle training, can be semi-prehensile. Six fingers and six toes. Two of the fingers on each hand are thumbs, with one placed on either side of the palm for stability in gripping. Covered in thick hair that comes out in seasonal coats. About seven or eight feet tall at full maturity, with thick necks, broad shoulders, and claws usually clipped short. To the outsider, females are naturally difficult to distinguish from males except in the springtime. Extra flexibility in their wrists. Race Disposition: Slow-moving and deliberate in most actions. Take pride in their design skills for everything from stamps to starships, but their true calling is as builders. Do not mate for life.
Tech Level: Their tech tends toward advanced, efficient machine-building as opposed to transistors, chips and lasers. Their computers still somewhat resemble Jacquard looms and Babbage analytical engines, just on a smaller scale. Equipment controls tend to be sensitive levers and knobs rather than keyboard-like arrangements. For example, they "type" using two combination lock-looking knobs that each contain half of their alphabet. Even small spaceships require a disproportionately large crew to do things like monitor life support, etc. But what kind of power do they use?
Anything Else?: The Narthex consider eye contact to be an intimate gesture and are therefore more likely to call your name or even poke you in the stomach to get your attention than to try to catch your glance. Other space-faring races therefore tend to perceive the Narthex as shifty and pushy.
