Theköppais

Theköppais are a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos in the K'tharr Nebula. They are characterized by their bioluminescent skin, which shifts in color based on their emotional state and ambient light conditions. Physically, Theköppais are bipedal with three distinct limbs extending from their torso, two for locomotion and one for manipulation. Their heads are proportionally large, featuring compound eyes capable of perceiving a broader spectrum of light than humans.

Socially, Theköppais are known for their communal nature and a deep reverence for astronomical phenomena. Their society is structured around a council of elders who interpret celestial events for guidance. They communicate through a complex series of vocalizations and the subtle pulsing of their bioluminescent patterns. Their technology is advanced, focusing on bio-engineering and energy manipulation derived from Xylos's unique atmospheric composition. The species has a limited presence outside of their home system, preferring to observe rather than directly interact with other interstellar civilizations. Their primary motivation is the pursuit of knowledge, particularly concerning the origins of the universe.
