Human

Humans from the planet Earth, and for some reason Jiv'kun.

Android

Androids come in many shapes and sizes. They can come from a large range of backgrounds. Some were created by the Arakona while others seem to appear at random. They are humanoid in form, most typically resembling humans. It is common for androids to be obviously robotic but not unheard of for them to pass as human.

Name	Description
Made of Sturdier Stuff	Unlike the meatbags of the world, a couple of stabs isn’t going to put you down so quickly. When rolling for Critical wounds, your roll takes a -10 to the total.
Machine	You do not need any help traversing dangerous environments. You take no penalty for being in a bad environment and do not need any items to travel in space.

Hu'zark

Humanoid dragons created by the Garm a long time ago. They usually stand around 5-6 feet in height. Mutations within the species cause them to have many different layouts for their horns and sometimes digitigrade legs.

Arakona

(A collection of Spider themed dudes. [Maybe, not sure yet. Def Placeholders] )

Amazing Climbers	You can upgrade a die in your pool when climbing a surface.

Wasie

Wasie are shapeshifters and so are not defined by a notable size or shape. Despite being able to replicate other species’ forms, they are unable to replicate coloration. Instead, Wasie have their own unique color patterns.

Another Face in the Crowd	When hiding in a crowd, you can upgrade a  single dice in your pool. (Changing an k dice to a l dice)

NOT OF THIS UNIVERSE

Occasionally creatures from another reality make their way into our own. There are a couple ways to arrive here, as listed below. Choosing one of these backgrounds does not allot your character any particular bonuses, but gives you an idea of their past and placement in the world. You can also pick races from Star of Solestine and Gears in the Machine.
