THE RACES OF AoE (Under heavy construction)

Species Name: Aeon
Home world: Chayyliel
Brief Description of Planet: Chayyliel is a fairly small planet, about the size of Earth's moon. It has two moons,(Achora and Achorixya) each capable of supporting life but remain uninhabited, save for the naturally occurring wildlife and flora. The atmosphere is oxygen based and but rather thin. Races used to denser concentrations of air would feel light headed as if in higher altitudes.

It is a tropical world known for its rain forests, beaches, and colorful wildlife. A single continent stretches unbroken around the planet's equator like a halo, separating the northern and southern oceans. This continent is teeming with life, as are the oceans.

The oceans are pristine and unpolluted. The weather is pleasantly warm year round. There is one small island at the northern pole of the planet that is considered sacred. "Off Worlders" are strictly forbidden to set foot on the island.

Average Lifespan: 400 years.
Average Height and Weight for Males: 5'9” / 180 lbs
Average Height and Weight for Females: 5'3” / 120 lbs
Eyes: The eyes always seem to be a pale and shimmering cool blue or green. Purple is extremely rare and has only been seen in males.
Skin: There is nothing too remarkable about their skin. Tones range from dark to light similar to humans, though the paler variety are more often seen.
Hair: While the males remain unremarkable, with females, hair is the one thing that stands out about them. Like a strange chameleon, their hair can vary and change color to suit their mood or environment. The color of their hair can vary similar to what is seen on humans ( i.e. Blonds, redheads, brunettes) but usually with a vivid and unnatural looking splash of color. These can appear in gentle highlights or can affect the entire head of hair. Some Aeon's hair can be seen in a wild assortment of colors and due to the nature of it's ability to change... When you see an Aeon, if you turn around and look back at them, there is a good likelihood their hair color will have changed.
Build: Aeons tend to be very slender and are shorter than most other races. They are not known to be well toned or muscular, but their build makes them very agile and flexible.
Strengths: Physical strengths for Aeons are few and far between. The most advantage they often have this their flexibility and the fact most of them are 'Double Jointed' making them adept escape artists, should the need arise.
Weaknesses: An Aeon's number one weakness is their frailty. Their bones are usually very fragile. A twisted ankle could easily result in a broken bone for an Aeon. They also must be very cautious of what they consume. While the allergy is different for each Aeon, they are prone to anaphylactic shock.
Extras: What Aeos lack in physical strength, they make up for with strange psychic abilities. Telekinesis, Precognition, and Telepathy are just some of the abilities an Aeon can possess. However, the 'gift' is different for each Aeon. And they usually are only able to use one or two abilities. The added bonus is that they are immune to mind control abilities and if they focus, they can prevent their thoughts from being read.

They also have an accelerated healing ability. Small nicks, cuts, and scrapes heal almost instantaneously. The healing process appears as a pale blue glow until the injury is repaired. Injuries such as broken bones can be healed within a few days rather than weeks or months. Severed limbs can also regrow, but never quite the same. If there were birthmarks or scars, the regenerated tissue looks slightly different. The same happens with fingerprints. They will be reformed in a different pattern.

Aeons also have binary cardiac system. One heart rests directly behind the sternum (center of the chest) and is the main heart. The second is a good deal smaller, resting behind the larger and slightly below. The secondary heart remains dormant, not beating, not even the slightest muscle twitch.. The second heart only becomes active if the primary stops. 

The secondary heart is weak and the beat is hardly noticeable, even with the most sophisticated technology. The secondary heart acts as a sort of backup generator, keeping blood and oxygen flowing to all the vital organs until the body can repair itself. Sadly, given an Aeon's frail body, this does not always succeed. Returning to life this way has a 95% chance of failure.

In regards to age, while 400 is the average life span, on very rare occasion (1%), an Aeon will be able to fully master all known psychic, telepathic, and telekinetic abilities. When this happens, an Aeon's metabolism slows to a crawl, lengthening their life span for four (4) times. Giving them a 2000 year life span. This also turns their eyes purple.  The rare few that achieve this ability come to be known as Sentinels, The Guardians of their people. So far, this phenomena has only been seen in males. It is currently unknown it this could occur in females.

Culture: Newcomers to Chayyliel often feel as though they have stepped back in time. Their architecture is reminiscent of Earth's Ancient Rome tastefully incorporated in keeping with the natural landscape.  Great monumental structures built into the mountain sides or part of massive trees. The roads are mostly unpaved, save for cobblestone paths in areas with higher traffic. They are not a technological race. While you can find computers and communication towers, they are only located near docking ports. Most Aeons have never even seen a computer.

Their manner of dress is also similar to that of Ancient Rome. Men and Women adorned in elaborate togas that come in a myriad of vivid colors. Men often keep their hair trimmed short while the woman let their hair grow long and pinned up in ornate braids or buns, with hair ornaments to accentuate the bright colors that females are known to possess. It is also customary to go barefoot, except on the more formal occasions on which they will don sandals.

When it comes to import and export, Aeons are famed for their ability to spin fine silks in the most stunning colors, and a rare succulent fruit called Payoa. Payoa is a very tangy and sweet fruit. It also has mild telepathic properties. Payoa will taste different to each person as the fruit will often mimic a flavor that the consumer is most fond of.

They have a pantheon of deities which they follow and worship. Their chieftain goddess, Chayyliel (For whom their planet is named) is depicted as a rare beauty with alabaster skin, long waves of golden hair with a single streak of ever changing color on the right side and a glowing halo about her head. She is the patron goddess of Wisdom and Premonitions. It is to her that those with the ability to see the future will often ask for guidance in interpreting their visions.

Their other deities are said to be the children of Chayyliel. They are:

• Isasael: A Goddess known for her gentle and but protective nature. She is described as a small thin woman with hair that looked like the night sky. Hues or purples and blues with flecks of gold, and bright purple eyes. The legend goes that she once descended down to the world to explore, despite her mother's wishes. She met and fell in love with a young man, who also happened to be a cleric to a temple raised in her honor. Their love was rumored to produce twins, Achora and Achorixya. She is the Patron Goddess of Motherhood.
• Aeyrus: Every race, culture, and species has their 'Grim Reaper' legends. Aeyrus is the Aeon's Lord of Death. He is mostly described as a tall figure, wrapped in a flowing cloak of black silk. His eyes are devoid of color, just empty orbs of white. While he seems like he would be a terrifying deity, he is gentle and soft spoken. There is a very rare flower that can only be found on a 'Thanis' tree. These flowers are a stark white, with dark blueish black coloration on the tips of the petals. It is said that Aeyrus is very fond of this flower. When an Aeon passes away, it is a custom to line the deceased's casket with these flowers to ensure that Aeyrus will grant the fallen safe passage to the afterlife. 
• Khestra: A young and mischievous god, he is often portrayed as an impatient, bright eyed, and fair haired young boy. Khestra is known as the God of disaster. When there is foul weather, lightning storms, destructive fires, and other scenarios like this, Aeons usually says "Khestra must be bored, today." When not causing natural disasters, he is also the one Aeons blame when things go wrong. He is an omen of ill luck.
  

Common Occupations: Doctors, Negotiators, Teachers, Priests, Clerics, anything with the motivation of helping or saving others. In rare circumstances, Aeon's will leave their planet to live a life of adventure and discovery. It is not uncommon to see an Aeon take up a life as merchants or supply transporters. 
Common Personality Traits: They are often unfailingly kind and helpful. If they have the means to lend aid, they will not hesitate. Most other races confuse this kindness for naivety, but Aeons are also uncannily wise. For the most part, Aeons are 'Homebodies', never straying far from their home world. But for those few that are nipped by 'Wanderlust', they are adventurous and fearless.

Names: First names are based on celestial bodies such as galaxies, stars, and constellations. Last names are unique to each Aeon. Even siblings will not have the same Last name. Last names tend to end in 'ael', 'iel', and 'eus' lending to their names sounding 'Angelic'. (*) represents names already in use by active users.

Species Name: Daedra
Home world: Stroedeyrus
Brief Description of Planet: Often referred to as 'Tartarus' by other cultures. Stroedeyrus is a massive world about three times the size of Earth. The planet has nine large continents that are connected by underground and underwater travel systems. The atmosphere is often turbulent and difficult to navigate through, but breathable. From orbit, the planet looks like a swirling mass of black and red. But once you punch through, the planet is alight with massive cities. 

While there are other sentient life forms that inhabit the planet, The Daedric people dominate the population. The planet is heavily industrialized, leaving very little natural landscape or wildlife left. Stroedeyrus has one moon that is used as an off world dump sight. The moon is essentially a junkyard that travelers will often poke through looking for scraps to repair their ships with.

The waters of this planet are eerily still and dark, seeming nearly black. The water has no aquatic life forms that have ever been documented and the water must be heavily filtered before it can be consumed. It is otherwise toxic. The scent of the air is similar to molten copper.

Eyes: At first glance, their eyes seem no different than most humanoids. But with a good look, the pupils have distinctive slits similar to reptiles. Their eyes tend to come in dark shades of yellows, greens, and blues. When light shines into their eyes, there is a distinctive reflective film in the eyes, suggesting the ability to see in the dark.

Species Name: Setravandii
Home world: Setravaar II
Brief Description of Planet: Many centuries ago, their home world was lost. Their sun burned out and left their home planet in darkness and cold. Eventually they were forced to leave their world behind when their sun finally collapsed and became a black hole. Their new home is not a planet but a collection of space ships and stations that have docked together. This massive collection of ships have easily become larger than most moons.

At the core of this artificial planet lies what The Setravandii call 'The Hub', kept running by a powerful computer that connects the systems of the ships and stations linked with it. The 'planet' is broken up into four quadrants, and in each quadrant are twelve sectors that operate much like cities. 

The environment is kept extremely cold. Ideal temperatures for a Setravandii are 45 degrees Fahrenheit or 7 degrees Celsius. It is also dimly lit due to the fact that Setravandii are sensitive to bright lights. It is not the most hospitable destination for off worlders.

Average Lifespan: 85 years
Average Height and Weight for Males: 5'6" 155lbs
Average Height and Weight for Females: 5'2" 130lbs
Eyes: A Setravandii's eyes seem devoid of color, appearing a silvery grey with a white sclera.  No other color appears in a Setravandii than this silvery color. Their eyes almost appear to be made of ice do to the lack of color and they way they shimmer.
Skin: Their skin is usually a deathly pale with a strange bioluminescent glow just below the skin. They have markings on their flesh in ornate patterns that glow a light blue. These are birthmarks, and every Setravandii is different. These marks are usually found along the cheekbones, on the forehead, down the back of the neck and down the spine, over the shoulders, and down the arms.
Hair: Only two hair colors have ever been found in a Setravandii. Black or a Platinum White.
