Sendums

Sendums are a fictional species that inhabit the planet Xylos. They are known for their bioluminescent skin, which they use for communication and navigation in the dark caverns they call home. Physically, sendums are small, averaging around three feet in height, with four slender limbs and large, multi-faceted eyes. Their diet consists primarily of fungi and subterranean insects.

The sendum society is communal, with individuals living in interconnected cave systems. They have a complex social structure based on a system of shared responsibilities and a deep respect for elders. Their language is a combination of clicks, whistles, and intricate patterns of light emitted from their skin. They have a rich oral tradition, passing down stories and knowledge through generations.

Technologically, sendums have developed rudimentary tools for mining and agriculture within their subterranean environment. They have mastered the manipulation of Xylos's unique geological formations to create living spaces and cultivation areas. Their understanding of bioluminescence extends beyond communication; they utilize it to cultivate certain types of fungi for both sustenance and illumination.

Sendums are generally a peaceful species, preferring to avoid conflict. Encounters with other species are rare due to their isolated habitat. Their primary concerns revolve around the preservation of their underground ecosystem and the well-being of their community.
