Zoyannas

Zoyannas are a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos in the Orion Nebula. They are known for their bioluminescent skin, which shifts in color and intensity to communicate emotions and social status. Physically, Zoyannas are tall and slender, with four arms and large, multifaceted eyes adapted to Xylos's dim light. Their diet consists primarily of subterranean fungi and energy crystals found within their home world's caverns.

The Zoyanna society is highly communal, with a strong emphasis on collective well-being and shared knowledge. They possess advanced psionic abilities, allowing for telepathic communication and limited telekinetic manipulation of their environment. Their technology is largely organic and integrated with their natural surroundings, focusing on sustainable energy sources and bio-engineering. Zoyannas have a deep respect for their planet's ecosystem and have developed intricate methods of symbiotic living with other Xylosian flora and fauna. Historically, they have maintained a peaceful existence, rarely engaging in conflict and prioritizing exploration and understanding of the wider galaxy. Their cultural practices often involve intricate light displays and harmonic resonance, used for storytelling, rituals, and scientific study.
