Talimots

Talimots are a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos. They are a sentient, bipedal species characterized by their tall, slender frames and a unique bioluminescent skin that can shift in color and intensity based on their emotional state. This bioluminescence serves as a primary form of communication amongst themselves, supplementing their complex vocalizations.

Their heads are elongated and feature large, multifaceted eyes that grant them exceptional low-light vision. Talimots possess four digits on each hand and foot, with the middle digit being longer and more prehensile, aiding in delicate manipulation. They have a generally peaceful disposition, prioritizing community and scholarly pursuits. Their society is structured around a council of elders, chosen for their wisdom and experience.

The Talimots are known for their advanced understanding of xenobotany and bio-engineering, having developed symbiotic relationships with many of Xylos's native flora and fauna. Their technology often integrates organic components, making it appear as if it has grown rather than been manufactured. They have a rich history, documented in holographic archives, detailing centuries of exploration and peaceful interaction with other species within their galaxy. Their primary sustenance comes from a processed nutrient paste derived from glowing fungi found in the deep caverns of Xylos.
