Fofters

Fofters are a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos in the Andromeda galaxy. They are characterized by their bioluminescent skin, which emits a soft, pulsating glow, and their four delicate, prehensile limbs. Fofters communicate through a series of harmonic vibrations and subtle shifts in their skin's luminescence. Their diet consists primarily of Xylosian flora, particularly the phosphorescent fungi that grow in the planet's extensive cavern systems.

The societal structure of the Fofters is communal, with decisions made through a collective consciousness guided by the eldest members of the community. They possess a deep understanding of Xylos's unique ecosystem and are known for their intricate, bio-engineered structures that blend seamlessly with the natural environment. Fofters have a lifespan typically ranging from 200 to 300 Earth years. Their primary defense mechanism involves temporarily intensifying their bioluminescence to disorient predators. Little is known about their technological advancement, though their bio-engineering skills suggest a sophisticated understanding of organic manipulation. Encounters with other species are rare due to Xylos's remote location and the Fofters' generally reclusive nature.
