Rangens

Rangens are a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos in the Andromeda galaxy. They are known for their bioluminescent qualities, which they use for communication and navigation in their dimly lit native environment. Physically, rangens are bipedal with a slender build, typically standing between 1.5 to 2 meters tall. Their skin is smooth and ranges in color from deep indigo to pale violet, often featuring intricate patterns of glowing lines that can change in intensity and hue.

Their diet consists primarily of the nutrient-rich fungi and subterranean flora found on Xylos. Rangens possess a unique digestive system that allows them to extract energy from these sources. Socially, they live in communal structures, often carved into the crystalline formations of their planet. Their society is structured around a collective consciousness, where individual thought is highly valued but always considered within the context of the group's well-being.

Rangens have a sophisticated understanding of bio-engineering and energy manipulation, which they have used to develop advanced technologies, including sustainable energy sources and inter-dimensional travel. Despite their advanced capabilities, they are generally a peaceful species, preferring observation and understanding over conflict. Encounters with other species are rare, as they primarily inhabit their secluded homeworld. Their bioluminescence is not merely decorative; it is integral to their physiology and their complex language, which is a combination of light patterns, subtle vocalizations, and telepathic resonance.
