Rugins

Rugins are a fictional species that originate from the planet Xylos. They are a sentient, bipedal race distinguished by their iridescent scales, which change color based on their mood and the surrounding environment. Rugins possess a unique biological adaptation allowing them to absorb nutrients directly from ambient energy fields, eliminating the need for traditional food consumption. This ability makes them highly resilient in diverse and often hostile planetary conditions.

The Rugin society is organized into communal collectives, with a strong emphasis on cooperation and shared knowledge. Their communication is a complex blend of vocalizations, telepathic projection, and subtle shifts in their scale coloration. Historically, Rugins have been known for their advanced understanding of astrophysics and interdimensional travel, though they generally prefer observation over direct intervention in galactic affairs. Their civilization has experienced periods of both isolation and cautious engagement with other species throughout their recorded history. Little is publicly known about their current political structures or population size, as they maintain a degree of privacy regarding their internal affairs.
