[hider=A Brief Look on Ambulors][center][b][h2]Race : Ambulor[/h2][/b][/center]
	The Ambulors aren't so much of a race as they are an accounted league of varied entities; they do, however, sport the same metaphysical functions and are compatible with one another in terms of succeeding and perpetuating personalities -- mainly being multi-dimensional travelers while being fully capable of retaining multiple personalities under a single archetype.  The fact that quantum tunneling seems to work by pure instinct has thusly earned them several names (free souls at times, but as far as any Ambulor would know, there is no such thing as a permanent residency in any sort of state of position and/or being), but those from civilizations of Type 3-5 (refer to Kardashev Scale) have preferred the name of Ambulors (or the rough equivalent, in any given language) because of their traveling capabilities (though it usually requires the death and/or a strong output/input of energy to activate, and only for that one archetype).  Type 1 and 2 civilizations all too often disregard Ambulors as impossible existences, with many potential innovators cast out by society or killed by the all-too ignorant.  Ambulors, in this respect, are more likely to be identified as repositories of information across multiple worlds and lifespans due to their immense knowledge.  
	The usual Ambulor clocks in at around several dozens of millenia of age, and for good reason; it takes a multitude of lifetimes to finally be able to shed the discrepancies between incarnations, and it takes longer still for the underlying archetype to establish a stable foothold across both the more and the less mundane dimensions.  After this point, the mature Ambulor may wish to maintain the single archetype for an indeterminate amount of time, or at will may perform a merging process to combine personalities with another Ambulor, at which the resulting entity will become an "elder" that will most likely be unable to live as a singular mind (which in itself breeds another set of problems, like random stellar disasters, black holes, nebulae becoming supernovae, areas where time is incongruous between centimeters, etc).  It takes a great deal of power and time to do so for both parties, so elders are few and far between...though their numbers may as infinite in number as the size of the galaxy, given the amount of dimensions and entities to account for.  
	Ambulors vary widely at any given stage of development; some may be almighty, near-unstoppable anomalies too difficult to comprehend by even by fellow elders (Cthulu makes a great example, but it's unproven as to whether or not he really is an Ambulor himself), and others (as in Lyra's case) may be vulnerable, fleshy creatures prone to death at every turn.  As such, no two Ambulors should be comparable to one another except by similarity of the archetype(s) and the utter futility in trying to capture or contain a single specimen for research in cross-dimensional physics or magic.  
	In short, they are an existence best left acknowledged and borrowed, but never truly manipulated or studied.[/hider]
