Veltoc

Veltoc is a fictional species from the popular role-playing game series, "Starfall." They are an insectoid race known for their complex hive-like social structures and their advanced psionic abilities. Veltoc society is highly organized, with individuals fulfilling specific roles within the collective, often referred to as the "Great Mind." This hive mind allows for efficient communication and coordinated action among the species.

Physically, Veltocs are characterized by their chitinous exoskeletons, multiple limbs, and compound eyes. Their coloration can vary, but often includes earthy tones or metallic sheens. While not inherently aggressive, Veltocs are fiercely protective of their territories and their collective consciousness. They possess a natural aptitude for psionics, which they utilize for various purposes, including telepathy, telekinesis, and even limited forms of precognition.

In the "Starfall" universe, Veltoc interactions with other species are often cautious and pragmatic. They tend to prioritize the survival and expansion of their own kind, viewing other races through a lens of utility or potential threat. Their advanced technology, often integrated with their psionic capabilities, makes them formidable opponents or valuable allies, depending on the circumstances. Encounters with Veltocs typically involve navigating their intricate social protocols and understanding the motivations of the Great Mind.
