Dunamis System

The Dunamis System contains two separate civilization that were initially unaware of each other, as neither had space travel capabilities until the Tiur arrived in their hunt for minerals. The system has two planets, Dunamis Major and Dunamis Minor. Dunamis Major is the larger of the two planets and contains the Tiur named species Gia. Dunamis Minor contains the Panths.

Gia

The Gia are nymph like creatures, fairly large in statue. They are considered one with the earth, meaning they can create and control it. There are two races of Gia, erb (forest loving) and aq (water loving). All Gia go by these two names, erb and aq, depending on their race. This makes it difficult for other species in conversation to discern who one is talking about. 

The Gia solved Tiur mineral problem, as they help provide for Tiur. Being "one with the earth," some Gia offered to move to the planet of Shudra in the Tiur System, in order to keep the planet from becoming barren. The Gia had very little technology, only due to the lack of necessity for any.  

The Gia have a monarchy system in place, currently ruled by Queen Erb.

The Panths

Very little is known about the Panths. What intel is known is from Tiur fly-overs. The Panths appear to be a young civilization, making them less technologically advanced. It does not seem to be from a lack of intellect, however. The Panths fight with spears. They have a warmonger mentality and a conquering desire, believed to be from the young age of the species.


The Tiur did once visit their planet to with technology as a welcome peace offering (armor they so  could fight with spears against more tech savy weapons). The Tiur lost communication with the landing party. It appears the Panths raided the party and took the ship.

Currently, the Gia are worried about the possibility of an eventual invasion of the Panths.

New Species: Tiur

System Overview

The Tiur (pronounced like tour) live in the Tiur system which consists of four planets: Neth, Ohma, Metus, and Shudra. Neth, Ohma, and Metus are essentially one large city like planet. Neth, considered the capitol planet, has two moons, which are also populated. The Tiur use Shudra for resources. A species from another planet system, called Gia, also live in abundance on Shudra, which we will discuss at another time.

Tiur

Tiur are very small, furry (colors vary) creatures. Typically, they will range in height from 1 to 2 feet. They are a highly intelligent species and very technologically advanced. They were the first to travel through space to find other intelligent beings and are heavily involved in trade throughout the universe. Unlike most creatures, Tiur only go by a single name.

Tiur Technology

Much of the spacecraft technology comes from the Tiur, although it is usually modified by other species. Consist throughout the universe are the Tiur telecom system enabling planetary system to system communication. This system is a laser based system that allows communication between set locations. This allows ships to check into planet bases without issue, but issues can arise vice versa. The Tiur also manufactured time jump stations in certain locations. These stations create "holes" that allow ships to travel rapidly from station to station.

Government

The Tiur built a space station that between the planets of Neth and Ohma, which acts as a government and military base. The space station, known as the Coesi, is about the size of a small moon. Each Tiur planet and moon has "Elected" which make laws for the Tiur across the universe. Each planet has this same system in place to govern itself on smaller issues. The Tiur, as a whole, then vote to elect a Prime Tiur to run the Elected (5 year terms). The current Prime Tiur is Liam, who has held the position for 11 years. The Tiur believe that a galaxy wide controlled station should be built to house a similar system for everyone in Alucinatio Mentis.

Military

The Tiur currently have the largest known space fleet in the galaxy. Tiur space crafts are all labeled TFS. The most notable active military personal is Commander Blaze of the TFS Uictoria.

Thavmain: New Species

To start off Alucinatio Mentis, I thought we would venture into one of the species that live in this world...


Thavmain (pronounce Thav-ma-in) live on the planet Thavma. Normally, all races of Thavmain have a dark, royal purple appearance of color in their skin. The appearances of different Thavmain races change based off current emotional state and the specific race. Emotional extremes, however, can lead to catastrophic events (which we will get to another day, in an ancient Thavmain lore story of Mevo). For this reason, Thavmain law sends young children off to schools known as continentias, where they learn to heavily control one's emotional state. Afterwards, small controlled changes can be used as an "ability" in a "touch"-like manner. "Orbs” were developed as weapons, that when tapped into these small changes, a Thavmain can turn the orbs into small race specific grenades that burst into fire, ice, etc. They can also be used in a more serene manner.

The highly controlled nature of Thavmains and their emotions stems from their religious beliefs. It is the belief that the gods are inside everyone, as the powers and appearance changes come from within. In their mind, therefore, destroying any life is destroying these deities. This belief makes the Thavmains peaceful creatures, unless highly threatened or failure to go through a continentia.

On Thavma, a single plant grows which produces a fruit known as Edian. Edian consists of the entire Thavmain diet. Outside Thavma, Edian goes by the slang term forbidden fruit. When eaten by non-Thavmains, other species experience an extreme mental breakdown due to an influx of  many severe emotional changes at once. Interestingly, when around other species, Thavmains can go long periods of time without eating. It is believed that the emotions around them of other species nourish them in some way.


In the coming days, I will go through the different races of the Thavmain, ancient lore that surrounds them, and the different appearance changes. Let me know what you think so far!
