Amüjas

Amüjas are a fictional species native to the planet Xylos in the Andromeda galaxy. They are a silicon-based lifeform, characterized by their crystalline exoskeletons and bioluminescent internal organs. Amüjas communicate through a complex series of light pulses and vibrational frequencies, a language that has proven incredibly difficult for off-world species to decipher.

Physically, Amüjas typically stand between 1.5 and 2 meters tall, with multiple limbs that can be adapted for locomotion, manipulation, or defense. Their diet consists of minerals and geothermal energy, which they absorb directly from their environment. Xylos, their homeworld, is known for its extreme geological activity and rich mineral deposits, making it an ideal habitat for Amüjas.

The Amüja society is highly communal, with individuals often merging their consciousness for extended periods to share knowledge and experiences. They possess a profound understanding of geology and astrophysics, having developed sophisticated methods for observing and interacting with cosmic phenomena. Their technology is organically integrated with their biology, often appearing as natural extensions of their crystalline forms rather than manufactured devices. Little is known about their social structure beyond their collective consciousness, and their interactions with other species are rare and largely undocumented.
