Assurian: The Assurians are a race of humanoids that are the perfect example of what a species shouldn’t do to their DNA. Their life expectancy is over 1000 years, but their society is rife with social uplifting by backstabbing and schemes which make that point moot; often dying rather violently. The age of majority for them is 100 years old, a ceremony at the school choose the domain where the assurian will start their life with. The top slots are often the most fought over (See Assurian Caste System). Assurian people often stay in a familial unit, which pools their resources and knowledge together to strive for power and influence. An Assurian lives and dies for her or his family, that is the only thing good about them. Children are cherished and cared for, education is paramount.

  Saryan: The famous warriors of the Hyades Star Cluster, they are the nearest neighbors of the Terran Empire, with which they trade for commodities such as medicine and services.

  The motto of the Saryan race is “In Peace - Vigilance; In War - Victory; In Death - Sacrifice.” They look indistinguishable from humans in their passive form, but when they are pushed to a certain mental state, they access the battle form that transforms them into 8-10 feet giants. In warrior form, their skin gains an elasticity comparable to layers of silk. However, it is almost impenetrable by low-velocity projectiles, however cutting tools seem to be effective against this. Their bone density is comparable to carbon steel, being heavy-worlders. Health is paramount to the Saryan people, malformed young, or otherwise defected, are often cast out or killed at birth. The Saryan people are divided by tribes, like the Thelian, but are less caring than their furry counterpart.

  Thelian: The Thelians hail from the planet Idrissa, which means “Benevolent mother” in their language. This warrior race is comparable to the Saryan, however, they are not overly aggressive with other races, unless insulted or witness what they consider a sin against nature or people. The average lifespan of a Thelian is 150 years, the female Thelian can bear one or two children every two years - but with medical advances, they control their population well. Their governance system is tribal, major clans gather to make decisions for the whole race when needed.

  Their Society is matriarchal, the female reign supreme and the male follow their every whim. The rulers of the clans are often marked by Idrissa’s stigma, which manifests as white hair. These chosen few are often birthed in normal families and prove to be great leaders or fighters.

  Human: In common usage, the word "human" generally refers to the only existing species of the genus Homo—anatomically and behaviorally similar to modern Homo sapiens. You won’t see the original Human around anymore, however. The human genome has been expunged of defects, directly resulting in increased resistance to illness, leading to the average life expectancy to reach three hundred years.
