Aureline:
Known for Cervidae (doe) like features in their female members, and male members have some familiar features of Caviidae (guinea pigs)--as well as copious amounts of freckles across their faces. They are often engineers, mechanics or general tinkerers in the world, and group oriented; as well as being known for having a set cycle for reproduction depending on their overall population. This set cycle allows for the Aurelie to have a way to directly influence on their lifespans, and why often they are capable of taking on roles that require lengthy time periods of study, and practice. Often mechanics, engineers, and agriculturers, they’re very adaptable but usually stick to traditions. Though the handful of members who have bucked tradition, are not excluded, they are few and far between. They are only known to be explorers in large groups, and rarely as individuals.
Known Aureline: Josseline “Josie” Marija -Aurora Opera Crew, Mechanical Engineer
Dauphine: (Encountered once humans left the inner solar system)
90 % of them are found in, or around gas giants, which means that humans did not come into contact with them until they reached Jupiter. To humans they resemble dolphins, and though direct contact can be difficult, as the Dauphine seem to avoid humans by keeping at a distance, they are at most unimpressed by humans, and tolerant of their presence around the gas giants they naturally inhabit. Scientific notes by humans on the species are sparse, but the UAF scientific data states they have telepathic abilities, are capable of surviving the vacuum of space, there are also rumors that they are capable of snarkiness, and humor. It should be noted the dauphine name was given by humans, and if the species is aware of it is not entirely known, though it is possible they honestly don’t care what humans call them.
Dunes/Sillex:
Silicon based life forms, often described as “ sentient sand” since they often present as loose sand forms. No one can truly figure out how old they are, or where they first came from; no one is really sure even they truly know. They are most seen as sandstone statues, that can hold their shapes for as little as 30 days, and as much as 180 days, depending on their age and strength. Since they require at least 1 week of rest to reassemble, they often have assistants who ensure they don’t leave much of their sand elsewhere, especially since they tend to leave small trails of sand as they move around.
Greens:
“Classic” aliens, literally what comes to mind when little green men are mentioned; standing at five feet flat, with large dark eyes, prominent on their faces sometimes with double eyelids, one pair as clear membranes that protect them in the face of high winds, and the other thick enough to protect their sensitive eyes from the radiation of their new star. When they came to Earth, they wore sleek space suits to help them regulate how much direct sunlight they were exposed to from our star, as too much of it causes them to feel intoxicated, much to their personal annoyance. Cousins to the Greys, though at one time they were all the same species. They had to recolonize a new planet when theirs started to die, and the Greens ended up on a windy planet, with resources that they could use once properly processed. In two generations, they had reconnected with their cousins the Greys, and though the more stoic of the two, they have steady, friendly relations.
