Avims

Avims are a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos in the Andromeda galaxy. They are characterized by their bioluminescent skin, which allows them to communicate through complex light patterns and also aids in navigation within the dim environments of Xylos. Physically, Avims possess a slender build with long, multi-jointed limbs and large, multifaceted eyes that grant them exceptional low-light vision. They have a decentralized nervous system, meaning they lack a single central brain but instead have a network of ganglia distributed throughout their bodies, which allows for rapid processing of sensory information and coordinated movement.

The Avims are known for their advanced understanding of organic technology, which they integrate seamlessly into their society. Their cities are grown, not built, from bio-engineered structures that adapt and repair themselves. Their diet consists primarily of synthesized nutrients derived from Xylos's unique flora. Socially, Avims operate on a collective consciousness model, where individual thoughts and experiences are shared within localized groups, fostering a strong sense of community and cooperation. Despite their advanced nature, Avims are a reclusive species, rarely venturing beyond their home system, and their interactions with other galactic civilizations have been minimal. Their primary focus remains the exploration and understanding of biological sciences.
