Umlkyns
Umlkyns are a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos in the fictional Andromeda Galaxy. They are known for their unique biological adaptations, including bioluminescent skin that allows them to communicate through intricate light patterns and a symbiotic relationship with a native Xylosian flora called Lumina Moss. This moss not only provides them with sustenance but also aids in their respiratory system. Umlkyns are generally peaceful and possess a sophisticated understanding of astrophysics and interdimensional travel, technologies they have developed through centuries of observation and research.
Their society is organized into communal enclaves, each led by an elder council chosen for their wisdom
