Due to the nature and intention of their creator, the Qourux possess magic, with arcane, solid telekinesis and psychic communication powers of a higher level than the Faustian species, but none on other elements such as fire, water and et cetera. Still, the former mentioned skills are less than the Triarian level. More abilities may be explained in the wiki [i]Average IQ: 721. Population Count: 9 billion. Life Expectancy: 9 GC (Galactic Center) orbits (1720 human years) Known Diseases: V'ikv Syndrome, prolonged exposure to oxygen environments, incurable and fatal causing bleeding (blood glows green) Khyr, congenital defect causing lack of magical ability, curable through arcane spells[/i][/center] --- [center][b]Government[/b] Psychic Collective. No defined leaders, no defined hiearchy. Only a common will governs over the Ceramus, and all decisive actions by the Ceramus are made by all of the species. Those who, in the rare case, divert from that will are deemed as heretics from the Qourux and thus exterminated. [b]Military and Military Technology[/b] [img=http://www.igorstshirts.com/blog/conceptships/2013/adam_burn/adam_burn_06.jpg] [i]A Ceramus warship drifts in the voids of space, in the new dimension to call home.[/i] While the Ceramus's military is relatively advanced compared to the current era's average, it is to say inferior compared to the technology pre-Universal war. Most of these are magic based, and with the exception of FTL, ship maneuvering is mainly by telekinesis. [i]Arcane Weaponry[/i] Beams and orbs of mysterious energy are the primary weapons of the Ceramus. The strength varies, ranging from a concussive gunshot to a railgun's hit, with further strengths still in research. This depends on the apparatus used to channel the shots. Staves are the primary hand weapons, commonly instantly kills a soldier in full 2014 standard armor, and still able to wear down quickly troops. Larger weapons are more commonly used for space warfare. [i]Bombardment[/i] Thzeer bombs are by far the most common choice for bombarding planets, mainly due to it being also terraforming, or "fertilizing", for the Qourux. Generally, these bombs range from 30 - 300 megatons, but ones that cover entire planets are still experimental. Thzeer radiation is generally deadly to other species, and gives off a faint green glow in large amounts. Because of this, most Ceramus worlds have green atmospheres. Irradiated growing crystals from the Homeworld are the core parts of these weapons. [i]Fleets[/i] The relative newness of the Qourux race has led the Ceramus to have a mere amount of 250 ships. While this is a (possible) major weakness for the empire, the individual strength of the ships help to back this up. Most can withstand a crash, and are decently armed, although the Ceramus might still need to take great care when facing larger enemies. [i]Others[/i] In case of peaceful contact with other species, the Ceramus has prepared suits internally irradiated by Thzeer yet contained on the outside. This enables personal talks to occur, therefore often eliminating the need to have a prepared diplomatic environment. [/center] --- [center][b]History[/b] [i]Ignorance is cause; arrogance is effect; doom's deliverance is destiny.[/i] Originally the newest creation of the Goddess Retsukuu Yomo in her dimension (now calmed by being able to have her own universe), the Quorux came into being several millenia ago, left by the being to develop their own selves unlike other races that have known Her presence. As expected by her, they were technologically evolving quickly, developing their own tools and building structures and eventually a single community, like most other races. Of course, there were wars between themselves, but after centuries went by, the Quorux eventually unified, and came into form the Ceramus. As the other universe's final stages of the Cataclysm came by, a dimensional hole that linked between the two universes ripped open near the homeworld and swallowed it, transferring the entire race to the other. Thankfully, the Ceramus were only yet to reach a full space age, so no colonies were lost in the process. When their space age came and the need to colonize further worlds arose, their nature of war arose again, befalling upon three planets, two empty and one occupied the radiation from which their life feeds on. Although they would kill sentient beings in the process, their intention is not to slaughter for amusement or punishment, but rather to expand.

And sorry if it's short for you, i need to rush to catch up on the current events of the RP.[/center]
