puristaens

Puristaens are a fictional species inhabiting the planet Xylos. They are characterized by their crystalline exoskeletons that refract light, creating a shimmering effect. Physically, puristaens are bipedal, with elongated limbs and a distinct lack of facial features beyond two large, multifaceted eyes. They communicate through a series of resonant vibrations emitted from specialized organs within their thoraxes.

The society of puristaens is structured around a collective consciousness, where individual thoughts and emotions are shared and processed by the entire community. This communal mind grants them a high degree of cooperation and a unique approach to problem-solving. Their technology is bio-integrated, often grown rather than manufactured, and focuses on harmonizing with the natural environment of Xylos. They are known for their pacifist nature and their deep respect for all life forms. Their diet consists primarily of photosynthetic energy absorbed through their exoskeletons, supplemented by rare mineral deposits found deep within Xylos.
