Native Sentient Species of The Jewel

= Native Species =

The Jewel is home to a few native species.

Havonians: Native to Havonis Prime, these green skinned alienoids were one of the first in Hasteria to develop FTL travel. Their DNA is a bit unstable, leading to a few instances of anomalous rapid evolution. Generally calm and quiet, they dislike conflict, but are willing to fight to defend their brethren and allies. The have 4 digits in each hand and feet

Thandetians: Native to Thandetis Major, these semi-aquatic Jelloids are very communal, but generally are extremely shy are require a lot of trust from outsiders. They are also very forgetful and have far lower average intelligence compared to other sentient species. they also have a limited lifespan of just 50 years. They are renowned for their efficient farming techniques, as well as their famed Cruiser line, these are some of the very few things that they recorded in history books once though lost to history. Like the Havonians, Thandetians have unstable DNA, leading to rapid and anomalous evolution on certain worlds. 2 notable baseline Thandetians exist:

Blue Thandetians are better swimmers, and generally prefer to live close to the water or in the water itself. They are more numerous, with an estimated 67% of all Thandetians in the galaxy being Blue Thandetians.
Green Thandetians survive better on land and are a bit more intelligent than their blue counterparts.

Cemayans: Native to the Cemayus, These Humanoids-Plantoids are known as the plant people. They have red, green, yellow, white and gray skin colors, no visible mouth or nose and mushrooms (Males) or flowers (Females) as "Hair" and black eyes. Their hands and feetshave no digits. Historically, they are extremely communal and pacifist, but due to galactic conflicts, have become concerned with the safety of their Homeworld and their colonies. Cemayans are one of the few Hasterian Species with Thaumic abilities, being able to manipulate plant life around them. Their Anatomy is more consistent with plants, and their DNA is the most unstable of the Big 3. Cemayan Females are more numerous, outnumbering the males 2:1.

Menrinidians: Native to Menrinides, these Aliens were originally baseline Cemayans on a colony ship that malfunctioned and crashed on the barren, yet habitable world. The barren conditions of Menrindes lead to a change in their demeanor, being far less caring and distrusting of outsiders (Although they are more willing to trust others when calm). They are a constant state of sadness and worry, this led to them almost always having a sad or worried look. The barren conditions also caused some deterioration of the brain, such as blurred vision and near loss of the flowers/mushrooms on top of their heads, leading to a decreased lifespan from 150 Years to 85 years. Despite these downgrades, some areas of the brain have strengthened, such as their perception of the environment, as well as their hearing, being exceptionally sensitive to loud noises. They thrive in harsh environments.

Runzeonidians: Native to Runzeonides, these aliens were originally baseline Cemayans that underwent rapid adaptation to the warm waters of the tropical world after colonization. The aquatic conditions of Runzeonides lead to an anomalous change to their body, changing their skin color from white/grey/yellow/red/green to blue/cyan and yellow eyes. They gain the ability to breathe underwater, and the ability to swim better. Their calm and communal attitudes remain intact, and their flowers/mushrooms gradually became aquatic plants.

Chegsubians: Native to Chegnaotania and Subehines, this species also known as the coral people. their skin color can vary from red, yellow, cyan and green. Their face is featureless except for their beautiful blue eyes. They effectively live underwater, but can live on land as well, but require constant moisture to stay healthy. They dislike conflict and are very calm and friendly. Their heads are decorated with beautiful Coral. The current species is the result of crossbreeding between 2 (now extinct) identical species from different planets.

Humans: Technically not a native species, but many humans moved from areas unknown, they are extremely influential. Little has changed from baseline humans. They can be found in most worlds.

Chelivians: Originally baseline Havonians, these grey-ish alienoids who went rapid evolution are native to Cheliv, and have an extremely similar appearance and behavior to their green neighbors. Chelivians can handle extremely cold temperatures and have excellent eyesight. Depictions of Chelivians often show them wearing lighter snow clothing compared to other species. They are uncommon and can be found mostly in alpine, mountainous, tundra and snowy planets.

Zothians: Native to Zothia, these humanoids with ant-like heads are hard-working, efficient and have excellent perception and hearing. They can handle extreme heat. They can be Yellow or Orange. with black photoreceptors. They are rare on most planets but are extremely common in Savannah planets.

Streletanians: Native to Streletania, These tall, skinny alienoids are known for their ability to see in the dark, at the cost of extremely poor hearing. Depictions of Streletanians often show them with hearing aids. They tend to keep to themselves and are care-free but can be ferocious when threatened. They are relatively rare and can only be found in extremely large numbers in dark and urban planets.

Anarvians: Native to Anarvis, These Light green alienoids are known for their shipbuilding and fighting skills. They also are short-tempered and be angered easily but are also strong-willed. Their architecture is well known, and their Blimp-like Ships known for their quality and fighting capabilities. They are uncommon, and can be found on most worlds, especially swamp and jungle planets.
