planenanarks
Planenanarks are a fictional species native to the planet Xylos. They are a sentient, bipedal species characterized by their translucent skin, through which their bioluminescent internal organs are visible. This bioluminescence changes in color and intensity based on their emotional state and is a primary form of communication for them. Planenanarks possess a complex social structure, typically organized into communal "glow-clusters" that share resources and responsibilities. Their diet consists mainly of nutrient-rich fungi that grow in the subterranean caves of Xylos, which are also the primary habitats for these creatures. They have a lifespan of approximately 200 Xylosian years. Their technology is bio-integrated, meaning they cultivate and shape living organisms to serve as tools and structures. Planenanarks are known for their peaceful disposition and their deep philosophical traditions, which often focus on the interconnectedness of all living things and the management of light and energy. They have had limited contact with other galactic species, preferring to remain focused on the development of their own world and culture.
