Teravians

Teravians are a fictional species that inhabit the planet Xylos. They are characterized by their silicon-based biology, which allows them to withstand extreme temperatures and pressures found on their homeworld. Physically, Teravians possess a crystalline structure, often appearing as multifaceted beings with a slow, deliberate movement. Their internal organs are replaced by intricate energy conduits and resonant chambers.

Communication among Teravians occurs through harmonic vibrations and light pulses emitted from their crystalline bodies. They possess a collective consciousness, sharing knowledge and experiences instantaneously within their species. Individuality exists, but it is deeply interwoven with the collective, fostering a strong sense of unity and purpose.

Teravian society is highly structured and focused on the maintenance and expansion of Xylos's geological equilibrium. They are known for their advanced understanding of planetary mechanics and their ability to manipulate geological forces. Their technology is bio-integrated and organic in nature, growing and adapting rather than being manufactured. Teravians have a long lifespan, measured in millennia, and their culture emphasizes patience, wisdom, and the preservation of their unique world. They have had limited but peaceful contact with a few other spacefaring races, primarily for the exchange of scientific knowledge.
