Zeilick

The Zeilick are a female dominated insectoid species of mantis from the planet Zeil. To the untrained eye, the female and males of the species differ only marginally, with the females being a yellower green with larger horns and mandibles but shorter antennae.

Despite their relation to many mantis species across the galaxy, the Zeilick are not sexual cannibals, and females dominate in all areas of society.

Triark

The Triark are a giant species from the planet Akyna. Descended from a horned and carnivorous aquatic species, they tower over all other sentient species in the known galaxy with an average height of three metres. They are also incredibly strong and easily angered, and it isn’t difficult to send a Triark into an unstoppable rage.

If it weren’t for a limited reproductive cycle, the Triark could quite easily have dominated the galaxy. A female Triark is only fertile twice in her lifetime for approximately one galactic standard month at a time, and multiple births are a rarity.

Many Triark work as bodyguards and mercenaries, and even the sight of one can cause opposing combatants to flee the battlefield.

K'Ibor

The K’Ibor are firm believers in the improvement by cybernetic augmentation. Most have replaced their original biological sense with cybernetics, and all are wirelessly connected to the galactic network. While not quite ready to do away with their organic bodies entirely, many will happily use varying excuses to replace a biological limb. Broken humerus? Replace the entire arm. Shattered pelvis? Replace the entire lower body.

Cybernetic alteration is closely regulated within the GSF, which has led to a massive black market on the K’Ibor home world of Avtik.

Looien

The Looien originate from the planet Bato, and are some of the GSF’s most notable trade partners. They are currently undergoing the process of full admission into the GSF, which is currently stalled due to a recent rise in Looien pirate activity across their local sectors.

Simili

The Simili are a species of hunters from Simil, a moon in orbit around the planet Smok, and has large, dense forest regions and numerous deserts.

The initial explorers that made first contact with the Simili believed that due to their long tales and scales, they were of reptilian descent; however, the Simili are actually a mammalian species.

Gregoran

The Gregorans are a short but stocky species, akin to the dwarves of Earth fiction.

Before making first contact the Gregorans were a species of engineers and architects that held strongly onto their heritage and tradition. The influence of other cultures on their own appears to have been minimal since their admission into the GSF, and the Gregoran homeworld of Enano is one of the galaxy’s most popular historical tourist destinations. One of the most popular times on Enano is during the Cervestafest, a planet-wide festival celebrating the extensive ale brewing skills of the Gregorans; the festival runs for a month and has been responsible for both kindling and extinguishing many a relationship.

Argon

Argons originate from the planet Lohi in the alpha-quadrant. They are a reptilian species with green scales and dark yellow eyes.

Being a dextro-protein based species, Argons cannot eat the same foods as most of the rest of the galaxy.

The ozone layer around Lohi is slightly thicker than the galactic average, which has resulted in the Argons having a higher sensitivity to ultra-violet radiation than most species.
