Hiveas

Hiveas is a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos in the Andromeda galaxy. They are characterized by their hexagonal bodies, which are covered in a crystalline exoskeleton that shimmers with iridescent hues. This exoskeleton serves as both protection and a means of communication, with the patterns and intensity of their shimmer conveying emotions and intentions.

The Hiveas are a highly intelligent and communal species. They live in vast, interconnected underground cities carved from Xylos's mineral-rich crust. Their society is organized into a collective consciousness, with individuals sharing thoughts and experiences through a complex psionic network. This collective nature makes them incredibly efficient builders and problem-solvers.

Their diet consists primarily of bioluminescent fungi that grow in the subterranean environments of Xylos. Hiveas possess a unique digestive system capable of extracting nutrients from these light-emitting organisms. They are known for their advanced understanding of energy manipulation and their peaceful exploration of the cosmos. Encounters with other species are typically met with curiosity and a desire for mutual understanding.
