Vormirs

Vormirs are a fictional species that inhabit the planet Xylos in the Andromeda galaxy. They are known for their bioluminescent skin, which allows them to communicate through intricate light patterns. Vormirs are a communal species, living in large underground colonies where they cultivate phosphorescent fungi for sustenance and light. Their bodies are adapted to the low-light conditions of their home world, with large, sensitive eyes and long, prehensile limbs.

The Vormir society is structured around a matriarchal hierarchy, with the eldest female serving as the colony leader. They possess a unique form of telepathic communication, which they use to share thoughts and emotions within their colonies. This telepathic ability is also believed to be the source of their complex light-based language. Vormirs are generally peaceful and reclusive, preferring to avoid contact with other species. However, they are known to be fiercely protective of their colonies and will defend them if threatened.

Their technology is organic in nature, focusing on bio-engineering and the manipulation of Xylos' unique flora and fauna. They have developed advanced methods of farming and creating living structures. Little is known about their history or their interactions with other civilizations, as they rarely venture beyond their home planet. Their existence was first documented by human interstellar explorers in the late 23rd century, who were struck by their unusual appearance and complex social structures.
