The Sidris are sensitive, warm-blooded creatures of avian structure. Double-spine structure, reinforced bone structure, but bones are all hollow. They show more similarities to avians than to reptiles, besides their pebbly, reptillian skin. They are creatures that are hardy, because of their regenerative properties- where another race loses movement and senses below a point when their spine is broken, a Sidris has two spines, which both decreases flexibility and increases back strength. That, and their spine can regenerate. Their skin is leathery, not thick, nor soft. Metabolism forces all but the most determined to be thin and wiry, with very, very few showing any signs of real overweight.

Description of government:
Sectional Democratic-Republic, set in tiers depending on community->region->area->state->Collection->Planet->System->Universal.
At this point, the Ushtuh has yet to completely dominate the planet, so the five superpowers of the planet (among 35 smaller nations, from chain-island states to Australia-sized countries) are in a council of sorts who vote and decide on what they want. Every five suncycles, they vote in a new 'President' from the one of the other four superpowers- one superpower can't hold President for more than one term in a row.

Description of military:
[Revised from before based on more raptor-like combat]
Infantry, water-based, air-based, and space-based is what they work with. They have very little actual ground units- in favor of mobile, fleet-footed infantry.

[u]Infantry[/u]
Sidrisian infantry are very mobile and very deadly. Heavy mobile missile weapons are not used with the invention of better kinetic weaponry- Sidris infantry weapons are almost all some sort of rifle or handgun. Grenades launchers are not within their arsenal, nor are mobile missile launch systems, or anything that doesn't use a cartridge, shell, or something similar. There are not even grenades or
