All Palerians look like human females but have many differences. From the ages of 20 they grow a horn on the back of thier heads. Like a small Rhino horn growing out the back pointing either up or down.
They have no body hair at all
There eyes look human eyes usually with large pupils and are the colour of thier skin either (grey for the silver skinned, Green for the green skinned and yellow for the yellow skinned)
Palerians can be anywhere from 1.5 meters to 2 meters tall

Palerians are asexual beings and do not require a mate to reproduce. they are actually not any sex though they all resemble human females

They can be either Green skinned, Silver skinned or the rare yellow skinned

ARCHITECTURE
Their architecture is very modern and futuristic.
White is a common colour of all buildings made out of a metallic type material.
There cities are mostly flat with buildings rarely over 10 stories high. They have many winding, soft, curving shapes.
If the planets terrain permits it, it always has canals and water running through it

They love open plaza's and squars, open air markets, café's and restaurants.

The Tallest structure ever built by the Palerians is the Guidance Tower. it is 500 Meters high (537 Meters if you count the Palerian Palace it stands on)
It sticks out of Pellion City (Capital city) like a tall pin.
The base of the tower is the largest building ever built by the Palerians and that is the Palerian Palace which holds the government. The core government (the guidance) reside in the Guidance Tower.

other then that they are entitles to all the other rights of a Palerian citizen

.................................................................................
Emmigration:
Palerians are permitted to travel and migrate freely within the Palerian controlled planets and are also permitted to live and emmigrate to other galactic empires
They must have a permit to leave Palerian Territory though

RELIGION

Palerians once believed in ancient times of 3 goddesses. Yor, Marls and Therils. they were one of each skin colour Yellow, Green and Silver and they watched over every Palerian. Every 450 days (one year and one quarter of a Rinek year) the large gas giant of Bolthon would be aligned with Rinek making it as close to the planet as it can in its orbit.
Ancient Palerians believed this was the three godesses merging together and the alignment was celebrated for a week (5 days is one week in Rinek)

Religion lost all its influence and now hardly any Palerian believes in the goddesses or religion at all.
But hundreds of years ago religion dictated the government and now the religion has been modified to only be the views of the three goddesses that all Palerians must follow which are Sharing, peace, respect, learning and love

The only temples to this old religion are the ancient ruins built centuries ago

The values of the goddesses have always been the values of the Guidance and still are. In ancient times the Guidance members where supose to represent the 3 goddesses on Rinek which is the reason that each of the guidance member had to be one of each skin colour. though this is not the case any more

GOVERNMENT

The Palerians are ruled by the Guidance. a council made up of 3 Palerians, usually one of each colour but this is not always the case
The current Guidance is made up of
Veral Elthen (Green) who is 560 years old
Alea Lemurs (Yellow) who is 330 years old
Zanil Kanso (Silver) who is 442 years old

Each community has a local government
The People elect thier local government. The local government then electsone representative to serve in the Planetary council "Middle Ring" of governemnt.
The Planetary council then elects one Planetary representative to serve in the Upper ring of government in the Palerian Palace on Rinek
The Upper Ring is made up of 10 members who represent every planet in Paleria except Polpil I which is a military base

The 10 members then elect 3 Palerians to serve in the Guidance for the rest of thier lives as the core leadership

Elects for local government are every 5 Rinek years (400 days is one Rinek year)

LIFESPAN

Palerians live from anywhere between 750 - 800 Rinek years (822-876 earth years)
The oldest recorded Palerian lived to 823 years (902 earth years)
They age just like humans from the ages of 0-20
from the ages of 20-200 they look as though they are in thier 20's
from the ages of 200-350 they look as though they are in thier 30's
from the ages of 350-450 they look like they are in thier 40's
from the ages of 450-550 they look like they are in thier 50's
from the ages of 550-650 they look like they are in thier 60's
from the ages of 650-750 they look like they are in their 70's
from the ages of 750-800 they look like they are in thier 80's
Past 800 they look like they are in thier 90's+ as they age just as humans past this stage

REPRODUCTION

Palerians are asexual beings and do not require a partner to reproduce
they must first masturbate to turn on thier reproductive organs and stimulate a small orb (or egg) inside thier vagina
when they orgasm a small liquid is released from a tube connected to the egg which fills the inside of the egg from the tube that is connected to the egg. this fertilizes it
The egg then disconnects
Careful not to let the egg fall out they go into a sleep or hibernation for 5 days. During this time the egg moves further up the vagina and into a small space which grows into a womb. The Palerian will wake up 5 days later to be pregnant and the womb will expand in a 6 month period containing the new infant. A special liquid develops in the Palerians breasts to feed the new baby infant when its born 6 months later

Palerians, like humans do masturbate and have sex for pleasure. Palerians can have sex with other species. if they do not wish to become pregnant from the orgasm that comes with the sex they can let the egg drop out.

Becuase no DNA from the other species gets inside the egg and becuase DNA from the asexual Palerian is the only one that reachs the inside of the egg via the tube that is connected to the egg the infant will not resemble or have any traits of the other species that the Palerian has sex with

Palerians have 3 different skin colours

Silver skins are the most common making up 65% of the population

Green skins are the next most common making up 20% of the population

Yellow skins are the rarest making up only 15% of the population

The first name is what others call them by like a human first name
The last name indicates thier skin colour

Silver skin last name = Kranso

Green skin last name = Elthen

RELATIONSHIPS

Palerians view relationships differently. They love thier offspring but becuase they do not require a mate to breed they do not have partners or companions

So other Palerians never needed to be anymore then friends. Companionship is not a big part of Palerian society

The outside galactic community has introduced the ideas of companionship and marriage. most Palerians are quite curious about this idea but its hard to grasp

Palerians dont pick up on things like flirting and compliments from beings hoping to be more then friends as they have never come across it before and just assume its in the other species culture to act like that.

This makes Palerian on Palerian relationships extremely rare. only a handful of Palerians are in Palerian on Palerian relationships. many are trying interspecies relationships.

THE GUIDANCE
The Guidance are the most powerful and important people in the entire Palerian Federation

They reside in luxury in the Guidance Tower situated in the center of Pellion city ontop of the Palerian Palace

They review laws passed on thier planets and can issue new ones, block laws and abolish old ones. they are deeply respected by the people and have full support of the people

All news always paints the Guidance in a positive light. the guidance are infaillable unless they admit it

They are also quite paranoid. between the 3 Guidance members they have 105 body doubles
a force field is created that protects the entire Guidance tower by generator poles on the roof of the Palerian Palace below.

The forcefield can be de-activated from inside the Guidance tower or it can be destroyed if the Generator poles are destroyed on the roof of the Palerian palace or if the forcefield takes on too much damage

The Tower also contains teleportation devices that can teleport the Guidance to either Supremacy sitting in orbit over the planet. The Zenith Harmony (another powerful ship) or the Marls Gate station

The Guidance can also initiate a self destruct system to destroy the tower if it is overrun with the enemy

The guidance also have the power to disable any of the jump gates into the system or any of the teleportation machines

HISTORY

The Palerians evolved from simply horned, amphibious snake like beings that could also reproduce by themselves over 40 thousand years ago
tehy then moves onto the land more, develoved hands to grip things, shed thier scales for smoother skin. the move onto the land also sacraficed the time they could spend under water from 18 hours to only 8 hours

Basic civilization began at 2400 BI (BI = before impact)
Then in 0 AI (AI = after impact) a meteor collided with the side of the planet. it caused the death of the surrounding inhabitants and plant life and the crator formed into a large lake. it was named the Yeper lake and was believed to be a great miracle from the Goddesses
