Name: Quetheeraa
Home Region: Almaak
Species Name: Quaaliish

Species Description: The Quaaliish are an aquatic race, younglings tend to like living above water, while the rest live mostly underwater. They have pale skin tones in various shades, which allowed them to blend in with their ocean home in times long past. And some still do, but they are thought of as ‘old timers’ and are generally looked down on by the rest of the population. The majority of the Quaaliish complement their skin tones with bright or contrasting colours. Thus a visit to a Quaaliish city can be likened to a living rainbow.

All Quaaliish are slightly scaled and have gills above their noses, which allows them to breathe underwater, while their noses allow them to breathe air, above the water. Their eyes appear to be completely dark, however this is only an illusion, in actual fact all Quaaliish have very dark eyes to allow them to see in the darkness of deep water. They also possess webbed fingers, fins on their ankles, ‘fin ears’ and suckered head tentacles to allow them to exist in a watery environment.

The Quaaliish are a largely peaceful people and their only weapons are their razor sharp nails, which they like to decorate to harmonise with their outfits. As a people they love the beautiful things in life and take great pride in their appearance. Their fashion is different to those on other planets as they not only dress for fashion but also for functionality, so that their clothes do not get in the way when they swim.

Habitat Description: Almaak is a planet covered almost entirely by oceans, the few landmasses are a chain of islands which ring the plant. These islands are mostly marshlands and are not very hospitable. It is because of this the Quaalissh are water dwellers, and any cities that float above the water are situated well away from land. The planet is renowned for the beautiful coral reef gardens and floating cities which cover the oceans, making the view from space one of the most amazing sights in the sector.

With sparkling clear water, rainbow bright cities and spans of multicoloured coral, the riot of colour is a sight to behold whether in space, on the ocean or beneath it. The wild life are all of the peaceful variety or too small to bother the Quaalissh, and are bred to complement the colour kaleidoscope of coral. However the beauty of Almaak is something that has been created over the span of many centuries. Originally the planet was not such a brightly coloured jewel, the Quaaliish of long ago began beautifying the planet and it is the scared honour of the modern day Quaaliish to carry on this proud tradition.

Personality: While proud of her planet and people Quetheeraa longed for adventure and a way to see the universe. She entered Intergalactic Star for the chance to meet new and interesting people from all walks of life. She is a friendly, outgoing and peaceful girl who loves to meet new people.  She also likes to read, write and act. And of course she loves fashion, just like the rest of her species. Quetheeraa plans to be a writer or actor and hopes Intergalactic Star will be a platform for her to launch her career.

Name: Shanai
Home Region: Al Na'ir
Species Name: Na'irians (Na Maha' Tet)

Species Description: From the far end of Sector 145, the Na'irians are best known for their insect-like appearence and incredible psychic abilities.

Their somewhat featurless face hints at their nature. Their mouth is very small and virtually unnoticable, for they have little use for it. Na'irians communicate almost entirely by telepacy, and they feed off of (absorbe) different forms of pure energy (including the energy of other living creatures, sometimes earning them the reputation of parasites).

These characteristics often make other species quite uncomfortable around the Na'irians. First time communicating with a Na'irian is an odd and somewhat unpleasant experience. The fact that they have the ability to read, control and alter the minds of lesser beings can make things even more unnerving.

The Na'irian society is run by the Council, compromised of the oldest, most powerful Na'irians. Power and abilities are a deciding factor in the social position of any Na'irian.. the greater your mind, the greater your status. Those few unfortunates born with nary any psychic powers are destined for lives or servitude, unless they manage to overcome their 'disability' with years of training and practice.

Na'irians have no predetermined gender. Any Na'irian can change their sex at will, any time they please. While most choose their preferred gender from an early age and stick with it, there are some who continiue to switch back and forth their entire lives.
Like chameleons on earth, Na'irians have the ability to change the color of their hair, eyes, and (to some extent) skin. A skill they take great pleasure in using.

Habitat Description:Al Na'ir is a 'paradise in space', perfectly suited for it's inhabitants and their needs. Not always has it been like that, for as history tells, it used to be a cold, unwelcoming planet. However as Na'irians evolved and learned, perfecting their abilities, they took more and more control over their environment. The landscape, weather, flora and fauna.. through various methods (including genetic engineering and technology), pretty much every aspect of their planet is now under their control. Some Na'irians believe this to be a bad thing, for no mortal creature should hold such power, lest they think themselves gods (which, admittely, some Na'irians do). But those that feel that way are the minority, for most Na'irians quite enjoy shaping their surroundings any way they please.

Not many foreigners have been allowed to visit Al Na'ir, for only a special permit given by the Council will grant you entry (or permanent stay). Those few who have been so lucky tell stories of dreamlike landscapes, strange plants and even stranger animals. You could venture from a deep, lush jungle to a sandy desert within minutes, depending on the tastes of your Na'irian neighbours. Trying to outdo eachother with the wildest plants or the strangest creatures seems to be common practice.

Personality: Shanai is a curious creature. Torn between the secretive nature of her fellow Na'irians and her own desire to explore the universe and it's inhabitants, she was initially unsure about joining the Intergalactic Star paegant. But after carefully considering every aspect of the issue at hand (as is her nature), she figured she could only gain from this experience, as could her people.

Her status among Na'irians is higher than average, for she descends from a very old and powerful bloodline (both Mother and Father sit at the Council table). She also strives to enchance her powers through continious practice & training. While she doesn't believe in using her abilities to harm or control others (unless they duely deserve it), she sees no reason why she couldn't be the best she can.

Aside from her curious nature, Shanai is also known for her interest in Earth culture. While most Na'irians consider earthlings a weak and undeveloped species, Shanai finds their bizarre ways and looks to be oddly compelling. She is reportedly the only non-earthling to own the complete works of William Shakespeare.

Name: Iseiphes
Home Region: Alnilam
Species Name: Nythe

Species Description: The Nythe appear very plantlike at first, but after spending some time with one it would become obvious that they are more like insects. They live in close-knit family tribes, with as many as five generations living together. Their means of communication is a bit odd, as they have no mouths. They vibrate their wings at different speeds to express themselves, and even one not fluent in Nythlish is bound to get the jist. Having recently come to terms with their stars impending doom, they have sought to throw out their old luxurious lifestyles. In turn, some tribes seek to build good relations with neighboring stars. Other tribes, however, have prepaired in a more forceful manner, and have begun training their youths in fighting techniques, ranging from the extremely violent to more practical approaches. Others still have returned to their roots, dabbling in spiritual means to heal their ailing star.

Habitat Description: Alnilan was once a lush, jungle like planet. Both the environment and the economy flourished, leaving no need for improvement. Thus, things stayed as they were for quite some time. Unfortunatly it was becoming more and more obvious, to the few stargazing-hobbiests, that things were going to get worse in a hurry. It seemed as though their home was on a very bad path. It was losing mass, and destined to explode sometime in the very distant future. Unfortunatly for the Nythe, they have very long lifespans and it was clear they needed to seek a cure for their dillema. Even more unfortunatly, perhaps, was when the hobbyists-turned-scientists discovered that their sister star was suffering in a similar matter, but was much closer to exploding than their own home was. Alnilan is still a lush jungle for the most part, but its plantlife has decreased significantly due to the Nythe's newfound priorities.

Personality: Iseiphes comes from one of the more prominent tribes on Alnilan, and as such has a more delicate approach to life. She personally beleives that no single solution to their problems can be found, and only once the entire people start to work together will they see results. She has training in both staff and sling use, and is adept at improvising both weapons when her usual ones are not available, though she prefers to solve things more with cunning than brute force.

Name: Xil Vax
Home Region: Atria, planet Zveck
Species Name: Zovian

Species Description: Zovians are known for their blueish skin tone, white markings, indecisiveness, and their inability to swim. Like humans, they do in fact breath oxygen, however, the only way they can is through their mouths. Those who can hold their breath by keeping their mouths closed for long periods of time are considered of the highest social stature. The Zovian record for the longest time without oxygen is 2 hours, 17 minutes, and 12 seconds.

Habitat Description: 97% of the home planet, Zveck, is fresh water which keeps the climate extremely humid and reasonably cool. This leaves only a tiny island the size of New Jersey for its nonswimming inhabitants, known as Zovia. The Zovian population is only 139. As they are extremely indecisive, the Zovians have great difficulty in making major decisions about their homeland. One month they wish to live in a vertical city, the next they dream for a closely weaved jungle. Due to the constant reconstruction, the Zovian island remains in a strange mixture of metal and plant life...

Caph has 34 hours days and 215 day years. Summer lasts longer than winters while Autumn comes early and Spring is late.

Personality: Xil is 17 years old and comes from a long line of dominant socialites. All her family is quite proud of this, but it has had the opposite effect on Xil. She spends most of her time wandering about the outskirts of the city, exploring the areas closest to the "large water" and making friends with the non Zovian outcasts who cannot swim. She finds the large water so interesting and one day hopes to learn the ability to swim like most other creatures of Zveck.

Her family and friends pressured her into entering the Itergalactic Star pageant in hopes of her gaining more self confidence.

Species Description: Siidos are a grey skinned people, and actually a little short. They have long torsos and skinny legs with almost equally skinny arms. Their fingers are in a more pointed shape and a bit longer. Their ears are what they are recognized for. The Siido ear sticks out from their head and is curved and ends in a point..

There is a formation of skin in their foreheads in the shape of a diamond, but has no center. Their hair is almost always black, shiny, but wiry too, hard to keep back at times..

Siido men are quick runners and hunters, able to hide in unusual places do to their frame. They only wear loin-cloths and thin sandals. Siido males ensure the peace, catch the food, and make weapons and other goods for their species.

Siido women do the market work, housework, and negotiations for their world. They pride themselves on their speech and language skills. Some women also are allowed to be Ti'anls, or Recorders, writers of things that are known..

They have great cities and small villages scattered throughout the world, each of these have their own form of government, but there is a Il'tari, the head of the people who resides in Het'ami, the biggest and richest city of Caph.

Habitat Description: Caph is a very humid and wet planet. It rains 9 out of their 15 day week. Caph has two moons that are close in orbit, and one sun. It is usually hot in their summer, and very cold in winter. Caph's atmosphere supports Siido life, and also many species of animal. Its atmosphere itself carries nutrients that make plants grow very tall and quickly even without sunlight.

Caph has 34 hours days and 215 day years. Summer lasts longer than winters while Autumn comes early and Spring is late.

Personality: Sileena is a quiet girl, who was studying to be a Ti'anls when she was picked for this pageant. She is the daughter of Kellana, the High Jo'nr or her reasonably large village. Sileena is considered one of Caph's more beautiful residents, but accepted out of the experience and knowledge of other species she would gain from the pageant. She could usually be found in the Ya'nio, Siido's equivalent of a library.

Name: Mirage
Home Region: Solar system Castor
Species Name: Castri

Species Description: The castri are very shy and quiet by nature. They are highly intelligent, ancient wisdom having been passed down since the dawn of the universe. They are quite small, about 2/3 as high as an average human being, and very light weighted. Their skin is a very pale shade of green/turquiose, the hair colour can vary but is always very pale as well. They have medium length plain tails, and parts of their bodies are covered in scale-like mutations probably somehow inherited from the wind dragons. They are wind elementals. Even though their faces resemble the human face, the castri don't have any eyes. They have huge ears though, making up for the lack of eyesight. It is believed that the castri can actually hear some kind of sound waves that allow them to "see" with their ears. The ears are usually richly decorated with piercings and occasionally tattoos.

Habitat Description: Castor is a very small solar system with several small gas planets. On the surface of Vinor, the only solid planet, reside most of the castri. It is a windy planet, huge clouds are constantly sweeping over the surface. The castri don't build houses like we do, they rather live in caves found in the clouds. Odd as it may sound, the clouds' shapes don't change. They have been the same for many a million years. Getting around is easy. The winds are always blowing fiercely, and with their power to control the air and create storms, castri often create their own tornado to travel with. Vinor usually isn't a rainy planet though, it is a beautiful planet always bathed in a dawnlike light. In the core of the planet there are great lakes and forests. The climate in the core resembles the Earth's, but is much more damp.

Personality:Mirage is a 18-year-old girl, daughter of the king's brother. Since the king himself doesn't have any daughter (yet?), Mirage is often recognized as the planet's princess. Being a very shy and quiet (even for a castri) girl, Mirage doesn't quite appreciate the attention this brings. She has been known for dating a middle class boy, but was more or less forced to break up with him by her father. Now she's got her eyes set on one of the princes, though she's scared of making a move since the princes pretty much consider her a sister. Mirage is very interested in castri fashion, her mother is a fashion designer, and thanks to her mother's contacts, her royal status, and her hair colour (the pale blue is considered the most beautiful by castri) she became Castor's hope in the Intergalactic Star contest.

Home Region: Cebalrai
Species Name: Veritarous

Species Description: Veritari are are the only intelligent life native to the planet. Upon the discovery, they were at a stage of technology similar to medieval earth. Over the last fifty years though, they have adapted to the concepts brought over very well, and are creating there own advanced technology without needing to depend on an outside source for help. Lots of aspects of their own culture are being over run by outside influences, especially earth. Basic beauty traits however, still run strong. For example very large hips on women, and large shoulders on men are very desirable. The females do not develop breasts, because the breathing flaps (almost like gills) are located on the chest. Young are feed from glans on the wrists that ooze a nutritious green substance called Nattix. These are to always be covered.

They have no ears, the ends of there tail covered in small holes which allow them to hear. The large bulb at the end of their stalk is essentially an eye, the black dot at the end similar to a pupil. Instead of a nose, they have a long, flexible tongue that they use like a snake to taste the air.

Traditionally, tight-fitting clothing would be worn over all the body except for the chest and the face, and the end of the tail where the ear holes are. This would allow protection from the many deadly plants, without getting snagged on under brush, also why hair was also worn short. Clothing has become more interesting though, since the arrival of other species, and looser clothes are often worn on top, or along with the tighter ones. Women often wear there hair long, allowing them to try out other styles.

Habitat Description: Most of Cebalrai is very dense rain-forest. It is broke into two continents by the Nifiric Ocean, and traditionally ships must be taken to travel across. A bridge though, is now in construction. The planet has many large fresh-water lakes, the size of seas back on earth. Before humans came, towns were built in the dense forests, with no attempt to keep the wild-life and the plants out; most streets having trampled grass instead of cobblestone. The houses were manly log apartments and small huts, blending in with the dark forest around them. There are still a large number of these kinds of villages around. There are becoming more and more cities though, that are mimicking the big industrial ones on earth. Houses are built out of mined stone and a substance similar to concrete. The biggest ones are usually logging towns, where outsiders have come to take advantage of the abundant forests. Most are a mixture of the two however, human looking apartments, mixed with huts on cobble stone streets with the forest just behind the houses.

Personality: Darliiqee lives in one of the more modern towns, and is completely caught up in the constantly changing technology and styles. She prides herself on keeping her place in the top of the food chain by being on the cutting edge of style on Cebalrai and she makes a point on showing her power when she can. She is sly, cunning and willing to do whatever it takes to get what she wants. Spoiled rotten by her father the head of the most successful logging company on the planet, she is use to getting her way. Though sarcastic and rude by nature, she is smart enough to know to keep up a sweet front that lets her slip under the radar. Called Qeeny by her father, it was mistaken often enough for Queeny that it became her nickname- a fitting one for a girl determined to rule. When she heard about the Intergalactic pageant it seemed the perfect opportunity to prove once again how great she is, another thing to hold above peoples head. She intends to use whatever tricks she can to get an unfair advantage. Different species, different ways to sabotage. If nothing else it should be some good experience in manipulating other races.

Species Name: Ze' Lecaelle

Species Description: Ze' Lecaelles are beautiful creatures with their long hair, bright enchanting eyes and pure skin. They are about the size of a human but often get taller. They often dress in short dresses or suits, because of the hot weather on Electra. The touch of a Ze' Lecaelle is deadly. They can kill anything (besides their own people) with just a single touch. So they almost always wears gloves. Also their long, spiky tail are deadly, which they take advantage of in battles.

Ze' Lecaelles are strong both physically and mental, which makes them one of the most powerful creatures of the Universe. They are extremly good warriors and pilots and makes great weapons and ships. Both females and males are warriors. In fact, there are no difference between males and females at all, except those things that makes them male or female. And males are usually longer than females.

Ze' Lecaelles can be very cold and cruel against intruders and enemies, and don't hesitate to kill. But mostly, they are friendly and peaceful people. If you get friends with a Ze' Lecaelle, you got a friend for life. They will never fail, dissapoint or betrade you, as long you don't. If you do, you can expect a really bloody revenge.

Theese people are tecnically limmortal. They can't be hit by any diseases and heal injuries very fast. You must know exactly how to do it if you want to kill a Ze' Lecaelle. But it's still not easy because they are, as said very, intelligent, sly and powerful.

Habitat Description: Electra is a planet with variations. Some parts are dry and covered with sand and with no grows, and other parts consists to 100% of plants and trees. There are also many oceans and lakes. But most of the planet is covered with great cities and villages. Almost everyone owns some kind of airship (there are no streets and roads, so it's preferable). But there are also many people who lives by/on the seas, and live their own life. In the many woods, you can find many unique animals and growths, not to be found anywere else.

Personality: Zora is a quite mysterious, young girl, who wants to live dangerous. She is curious and loves to explore new things and see the world. She is also Electras greatests warrior and pilot. Zora is about 129 (that would be about 16 human years) years old and is the youngest daugther of King E'kazarah. She is the favourite one of eleven older sisters, and are about to become queen as soon as she turns 130. But, then she has to get married. Get married, with a boring man she don't love. That's nothing for her. She wants to see the whole universe, visit other planets and discover their sectrets. And besides that, she has already found her love...

Species Description: Thafi's are characterised for their filmy, multi-layered skin, their piercing eyes, their natural ability to fly, and the iridescent wings that they are born with, but fade with age, until they are just skin flaps on the shoulder blades. the wings are trimmed in intricate patterns, and Thafi's are judged mainly on their proficiency at wing styling. A Thafi who cannot style wings well is not considered a desirable mate, and is exiled to f ind their own way or die in the forests.

Habitat Description: Gomeisa is also known as the great ember, burning brightly inside, but concealed by a thick layer of ash on one side of the planet. This is the inhabited area. The burning land is avoided, unless one has a death wish. The ash is not very suitable for growing crops, and the Thafi's have adapted to only need nutrients once every 2136 days. The climate is very hot, and dry. Water is a commodity, and is stored in the great place for use by only the richest and most deserving of the Thafis.

Personality: Fenyn has always been eccentric, and entered this contest after her best friend, Thali signed her up without her knowledge. It is against Thafi belief to exit any contest once entered, even against your free will. She plans to do her best to win, and make the most of this opportunity.

Species Name: H'arlemn

Species Description: H'arlemns are very strong brave and gentle creatures. Thre are very little males, thefore most of the population is female. But that does not mean that there are little of them. Female H'arlemns lay hundreds of eggs at a time, and can only lay eggs once. Usually, there are about 600 new H'arlemns born every ten years. Once eggs are laid, grown up H'arlemns take and egg to raise as their own.

H'arlemns are quite dig compared to humans, usually 6-7 feet tall, and on average they live for 160 years. They have strong bones, and very strong skin. They have terrible temper, its like theres a bomb ticking in their heads, and once something is wrong they just "blow up". That has been a reason for many wars. The longest war lasted for 200 earth years (about 100 hadar years).

H'arlemns are very skeptic about things they cannot prove. If they have no proof for it, its not there. If they cannot explain something, there should be an explanation. because of that H'arlemns are very scientific. They enjoy knowledge, and despise oblivion.

Habitat Description: Hadar has a very harsh climate. Cold winters that last half of the year, and short, hot summers. Hadar has many deserts, that are pretty much empty space surrounded by mountains. Very rarely you can firnd a small village or a little town in the desert, because it is very hard to get through the mountains.

Cities are built of stone, and are made up of tall towers as workplaces, stures and everything else, and many-storie underground buildings as living quarters.

Personality: D'ArJayee has a very bad temper at times, but usually she is very kind. She is very smart, loves to travel, and wants to become a scientist later in life and research other planets. She loves adventure, and deep inside she enjoys getting trouble, it makes her feel very alive. She is not at all quiet, and not one of those girls who stay at home and cook and clean. She would much rather go out with her friends, and sneak into deserts looking for ancient villages.

She really enjoys music, but despises dancing. She is more of a tomboy, likes to stand out. Sports are her passion. Once her heart starts pumping, she feels at the top of the universe.

Her friends did not believe she would enter and win Miss Hadar, but her confidence is what got her through. Now, her friends are willing to help her with anything on her way to win miss Universe.

Species Name: Ta’Li

Species Description: the Ta’Li is a rather small species. The largest Ta’Li ever lived was about 170cm high, but the average length of a Ta’Li is 150cm. Both Male and Female Ta’Li are built rather thin, but very athletic. Their long legs let them run extremely fast, and they can jump pretty far and high. The colour of their skin is this of a very pale grey, almost white colour… Their eyes almost always golden, and don’t have pupils. They grow magnificent bright golden hair on the top of their hair, but only at the middle top part. Hair is mostly let loose. Only when they need to fight or when they celebrate their hair is put up in a different way. They also grow little tufts of hair on their elbows… About 90% of the Ta’Li are woman, the other 10% are Men, who live a life of a high priest, and are in charge of the reproduction of the Ta’Li.

Ta’Li woman live in small communities of about 50 people, and they are the providers of this communion. These little groups live in peace with each other, and often come together to trade or celebrate. Ta’Li woman are the ones who go hunt, search for food…

Habitat Description: Maia is a pretty rough planet. The surface of this planet is very rocky, but it has rivers and some vegetation too. It is below this surface where all life takes place. Maia has a lot of caves where the Ta’Li installed their population. Deep inside these caves valuable minerals are found, that can be forged/traded/made into clothes/weapons. The ring that surrounds the planet came to be when the once almighty volcano erupted and shot hot lava into the atmosphere. Nowadays when a piece of the ring ‘crashes’ onto Maia, Ta’Li make sure capture the meteorite, as it gives them power to have electricity in their caves. They live a rather hard life, but they enjoy it. Only specifically trained Ta’Li are allowed to go to the surface to search for the necessary goods, because the surface is the territory of the animals, who are way larger than the Ta’Li, and see them as food.

Personality: Xi’Jo is a member of a family living in a cave up in the north of their planet. Her mother is the leader of this group, and the man who is said to be her father was the best priest the Ta’Li had in ages. So you can imagine what kind of pressure this had on little Xi’Jo, a princess of her race. Everyone expected her to be the perfect little daughter, but she didn’t want to be that. In fact, she hated being pampered and wanted to break free from this suffocating life in the caves. She successfully managed to get out at night to wander alone around the rough surface of Maia. Before dawn she would come back, she didn’t want to get anyone worried…

She’s a closed person - she believes that showing emotions to another person is a weakness – but she cares for the family she lives in, and would do anything to keep them safe.

Right now she’s in the training programme to be a ‘Provider’, someone who goes to the surface to get the necessary goods to survive…

Her mom persuaded her to join this contest, seeing she is a princess of the Ta’Li. And this could be a good way to get her planet known to the whole galaxy. She accepted out of motherly love, and wants to show the whole galaxy how amazing her planet is.

Name: Ur-iri-ah Diin
Home Region: Mirfak
Species Name: Pfdrucks

Species Description: They are small, slender creatures, rarely taller than 120 cm. Their skin is thick and smooth, of light shades, sometimes a little iridiscent, depending on the place they live. There's 'hard' protuberances, that get to grow as big as crests on their heads, and on their shoulders in males. Their eyes usually tend to be dark, though there is yellow and blue eyed Pfdrucks, but they tend to be really rare. Hair usually moves between the range of browns and red and it grows from the middle of their head and from the side of their crests. Their main energy, and food source are minerals that they extract from rocks, their teeth is strong enough to chew small sized rocks, so, while in their planet, this guarantees them, they'll never starve.

The Pfdrucks are a subordinate species to the Dwarnks, who invaded them and took over their planet, even the word 'Pfdrucks' come from the Dwarnk language. The Drawnk that are taller than ten Pfdrucks together and probably as wider as them. They have taken most of the planet and a big part of the Pfdruck population serve as slave workers to them.

The Pfdruck have higher intelligence, but their sizes doesn't let them fight back much. The Dwarnk also dominate higher technology then them, being the travel to outer space imposible to the Pfdruck before them. The Pfdruck culture is basically tribal, with small groups, sometimes grouped into bigger groups,it's rulers are designed by blood more than by ability and they are codominant with the clergy. The Pfdruck are politeists and quite religious, some of them falling into fanatism even.

Habitat Description: The whole planet is desertic, with a permanent dry and warm climate. Most of the soil is rock though there's areas where sand can be found...consecuense of erotion. Since the invation the Pfdruck had dug tunnels, and slowly built whole cities on the underground, which usually only survive till a Dwarnk feel in need of getting more servants and tehy dig a whole and just simply shove their hands in to grab all they can.

Personality: Ur-iri has been born to be a priestes, and has been educated for that matter, that till the Dwarnk captured her and put her to work in one of their 'houses' (which resemble quite well to a bear cave). She's silent and quiet, yet energetic, competitive and hardworker. Her education tends to make her get more involved with others lifes and problems than her own and while she is a good listener, she's not as good at speaking of herself, neither of recognizing when she could need help. She keeps getting involved in her people's traditions, even that taking distance frm that reliious world has made her not depend so much on it.

She had been sent to the pageant by the Dwarnk. Their first candidate was a Dwarnk female, but as she ate the airship pilot and his crew and she never got to arrive to destination. And the Dwarnk have few females between them, so tehy picked one of the Pfdrunk instead.

She does found it as a fun experience, though, it does make her shy to think of so many people looking at her.

Name: Araijia
Home Region: Naos, planet Aeviem
Species Name: Naosi

Species Description: The Naosi move with a poise and grace that is renowned throughout the universe. This is a result of the high viscosity of the atmosphere as well as the low gravity of Aeviem’s surface which means that the Naosi people grow very tall and willowy. Because of their elongated torso, there is limited room for digestive organs, and so the Naosi have evolved to be photosynthetic, with symbiotic zooxanthellae algae living subdermally. Because of this, they tend to favour translucent fashions.

Due to the character of their planet, they have evolved to live in close harmony with their environment, with several symbiotic relationships with other species playing integral roles in their technology and society. Because there is no solid surface on Aeviem, the Naosi live on huge lily-pad like leaves, whose stems stretch down from the foggy surface of Aeviem to the dense liquid core. It is on these leaf surfaces that the Naosi make their homes. Each leaf can maintain an individual or small family group, so large metropolitan cities are impossible, and most Naosi value the independent politics that this affords.

Habitat Description: The Naosi system is composed of six planets, and it is the second gas giant, Aeviem, where the only sentient species of the system, the Naosi, have their homeworld. Aeviem is a swirl of gaseous vapours, with a high pressure liquid core. Although, as a gas giant, Aeviem has no solid surface, the planet developed plant life rooted in the liquid, high-pressure core of the planet, with long stems which reach up high into the gaseous atmosphere and flat leaf-tops similar to Terran waterlilies. It is upon the acre sized leaf surface that Naosi civilization has developed.

Personality: Araijia is a respected scientist on Aeviem, and her area of research is in the particular varaieties of algae that may live symbiotically with the Naosi species. Recently, she has discovered a new species of algae from the planet's high pressure core, which allows the Naosi to maintain their graceful movements under the higher ambient gravity preferred by the rest of the universe for the first time. As she was her own first test subject, she is currently the only Naosi with large enough colony of the anti-grav algae to sustain her stature and grace without the bulky, mechanical, off-world technology the Naosi were required to depend upon up until this point. She has entered the pageant to gain publicity of her discovery in hopes of gaining funding to continue her research.

Name: Panelopie
Home Region: A small planet near the star Peacock.
Species Name: Pecocians

Species Description: A small, humanoid race, they stand between three and four feet tall when fully grown. They have soft tufts of feathers around thier beaks, on thier foreheads, and down thier neck to brush the top of thier chests, along with 3 long plumes, or feathers, sprouting from the tops of thier heads, and tails that resemble a peacock in pattern. Thier eyes match thier feathers, and can come in any of the colors of the rainbow. Females are just as colorful and festive as the males in thier plumage. They have no hair, and no ears, instead hearing through small holes in either side of thier head, similar to what birds and reptiles have on Earth.

Habitat Description: The vallies and deserts in wich they live are often warm to hot, and can range from a tropical heat consiting of jungle or rain forest like surroundings, to dry desert like conditions consisting of sand dunes with small oasis spread through them. The high mountain peeks that cup the vallies and border the deserts are capped with snow year round, and are a welcome break to the heat of the areas in wich the Peconians normally live, and so are often visted for a day or two when the heat of home becomes intollerable.

Personality: The personalities of these humanoids are as varied as the personalities of thier human 'cousins', though given the heat of the day in the areas they live most sleep during the hottest part of the day, choosing to be awake in the early morning, sleep through the late morning and afternoon, awake for the early evening, and the first few hours of the night, then sleep through the few hours remaining until it is time to wake again. Panelopie herself is a quiet little one, who takes pride in her bright green eyes and plumage, accented with blue. She often wears blue as she feels it helps accentuate her plumage without overshadowing it. She also prefers to wear jewelry made of a metal similar in color to the silver found on Earth, though it is much stronger once molded/made into carvings, jewelry, or the miriad of other uses found for it. She loves to have this jewelry accentuated by a deep, dark blue stone that is reminicent of the diamond found on Earth in it's makeup, though it's colors are more varied, and vibrant. She enjoys reading romance novels, and dancing. As such she often wears clothing that makes her dancing easier. She dances profesionally, and her stage name is Lady Emerald to reflect the green of her eyes and plumage, a name she chose herself to draw attention again to those features. She loves to look at art of any sort, and often goes to the few museums of her people. She does not like the crowded bazars and so does not go shopping unless she has to. Though she enjoys romance novels she is not interested in a relationship herself as dancing is her life. As is common among her people she is also decently vain.

Name: Kii'anteth nai Shet'naah (Kii'anteth of Clan Shet'naah)
Home Region: Rasalgethi, planet Ek'raath.
Species Name: Vael'tash

Species Description: The Vael-tashi have adapted over millenia beyond reckoning to a life spent below the surface of their homeworld. It is said that, long ago, they rambled in lush forests when their race was young. Such knowledge exists only in the Great Records kept in the capital city of Nirr'vash along with many drawings of how the species evolved over the long timespan. Averaging about 6 feet in height (approx 1.8 meters) species-wide, Vael'tashi are covered all over in a pelt of very fine, smooth-laying fur. The variety of colors is as random as one can imagine and the Vael'tashi revel in the variety. As a vestige of days that the species roamed in long-gone tree covered expanses, each Vael'tash possesses a prehensile tail. Given the cavernous nature of their current habitat, there are still thousands of uses for the tail and so it has not been adapted out. Along the forearms, calves, tailtip and head are longer, silkier lengths of fur. Some have called the Vael'tashi a catlike species even though they do not have digitigrade legs and possess no claws. They have very strong fingers and toes, though, which are good for gripping. Their eyes -are- slitted like a cat's but they have much more intense nightvision.

Their society is definitely matriarchal in nature but there is a great equality amongst all. There are four nik'kai, or'genders', among the Vael'tashi (genders is not truly correct, but the closest by other species standards). They are Kaia(female), Tein(male), Tei'a(neuter, sterile), and Ka'in(shifting). Kaia bear young and thereby head the families and clans. Tein provide food both farmed and herded and make up the defensive corps of the species. Tei'a raise the litters the Kaia produce and tend to all servile needs. Ka'in are strictly spiritualists, knowledge-keepers, and the teachers of all. Truly, the Vael'tashi revel in their variety in all things! There is a rough even count in the species among all the 'genders' so everyone has a place in the common society. Technologically advanced, most of the species' technology is focused on their existence below ground and less on the world beyond them. This is slowly changing, though, as the young seek something more than what is in their own caverns and take to space.

Habitat Description: Once, long ago, Ek'raath was a lush, deeply forested/jungle world. There are drawings galore in the Vael'tashi Great Records of the flora and fauna that once existed. Over time, though, the star that governs their existence, Rasalgethi, has undergone much change. First it expanded and grew very hot which withered away all the vegetation and drove the once thickly-furred Vael'tashi below ground. Then, millenia later, it cooled and now leaves a barren landscape behind that, even when the star is brightening the sky, is too cold to inhabit for long. Ek'raath itself has an incredibly warm core and is a large planet. Today there are huge warrens of caverns beneath the surface. Cities that contain millions upon millions of Vael'tashi are linked by tunnels and rivers that twine beneath the planet's surface. Here and there, some tunnels exit to the surface and are marked on the outside by bright yellow lights. On some flatter plains are built great lifts to the precious few spaceports the Vael'tashi operate.

Personality: Kii'anteth is a Ka'in who mostly chooses to resemble a Kaia in form most of the time. While being of the shifting nik'kai, it most identifies as female and thus conducts its affairs with others in that manner (will be referred to as she from here out). She tops out at about 6 feet and one inches (approx. 1.86 meters) and is covered in black fur with almost metallic silver-grey longer fur. Kii'anteth, or Kii as she shortens it, was once in grooming to be a priestess for one of the small mik'tah(or gods) that her clan, Shet'naah', was aligned with. However, like several of her generation, Kii had her eyes skyward from a very young age. Ever since the Tei'a who watched her took her and her littersiblings on a trip to one of the spaceports she has sought a life beyond the caverns. Obedient in many things, though, she stuck with her training up until the final initiation and chose not to take the final step. Bright, sunny, and very spiritual, Kii revels in seeing the variety of the universe as it exists beyond her home caverns. She has fallen into a role that is close enough to an ambassador to other species for her zeal. She greatly loves to explore if she is gien a chance and takes copious mental notes that she puts into a datapad later. The pageant is just another opportunity for her to spread her own kind of 'sunshine' and enthusiasm among those she meets!

Name: Uelmulie
Home Region: Rigel
Species Name: Lophii

Species Description: The Lophii started out a small settlement of humans who had made the journey to the distant Rigellian star system to try and expand their galactic boundaries. Having met with some success in forming small communities on the surface of Rigel, they managed to survive for several decades and formed an economy and lifestyle around the vast saltwater oceans the planet boasted. Then, perhaps because of a planetary climate shift or a subtle change in the planet's orbit, the amounts of oxygen present in the atmosphere boomed and the air began to spontaneously combust. This destroyed what cities had not been built under domes and eventually forced the humans underwater. Over several hundred years, they have begun to take on the characteristics of certain predatory fish that survive in the oceans, such as gills, scales, a lack of human nose, and webbed hands and feet. Females also have formed filaments that dangle from the middle of their foreheads and glow with bioluminescence. They use these to communicate in the dark depths of the ocean and the filaments are seen as a thing of beauty.

Habitat Description: The Lophii live in deep-sea cities in the depths of the Rigellian oceans. Their cities are usually built directly onto the sea floor using metals harvested from the sea floor and melted down using geothermic heat.

Personality: Uelmulie is considered quite beautiful by Lophii standards, but is completely unaware of it. She likes to spend her time diving for pearls and using scrap metal and found objects to make funky, original pieces of jewelry. She is friendly and pleasant to be around and will often bestow gifts on her friends or loved ones randomly. She entered the Intergalactic Star competition at the behest of her friends.

Name: Liyyath
Home Region: Saiph. Planet Ka D'Holgr
Species Name: Arkh-zaih

Species Description: The Arkh-zaih are spread all over Ka D'Holgr. Their skin color tend to be varied, though even the most gray/silver skinned ones keep a slight tint of blue in their skintones. It's this blue tint which lets them absorb the light produced by the giant blue Saiph. The Arkh-zaih don't need to eat regularly, but they do need to be exposed to that light, in some way Saiph's light for the Arkh-zaith is what water is to humans. When taking distance from the planet, as with Liyyath for this pageant, the Arkh-zaith need to carry with them equipment to reproduce a similar light to the one they get in their planet.

The only reason they don't go naked while in the surface is that conceps as 'shame' has reached them, just as it had to humans, but they still try to get at least their arms uncovered to take advantage of the sun they can get.

The Arkh-zaith live over and under the surface, their bodies allow them both. They are prepared to swim in extreme depths, where they can't see, thanks to the sort of anthenae that comes from theirs heads. This allows them produce a radar efect that lets them guide themselves where they cannot see. The Arkh-zaih also have two separate systems to do, what can be compared to humans breathing. The body changes from one to the other when it feels the change in the surroundings, the system to breath underwater is located in their necks, and, as it is quite sensitive they usually cover it when being in the surface, though it's not deadly to have it unprotected, and a high collar would be enough to have it 'safe' anyways.

The Arkh-zaih live in cities and their goverment is located in Du l'abght their capital. Here the high council formed by three famales and three males gather, along with the D'argnul, which would be the one who rules over the council, even though he can't decide anything without the council's aproval. The Arkh-zaih tend to be as varied as the cities they come from, but they tend to be a quite positive and working specie.

Habitat Description: Ka D'Holgr has a quite dense atmosphere, composed of many different minerals which tends to be quite heterogenic and warm. The 'water' from this planet cover over the 95% of it, it's not 'scientifically' water, meaning it's not H2O but a variation of it. Some of the Arkh-zaih see it as a more dense part of the atmosphere. The climate variations are small, but it usually moves from cool to warm without extreme temperatures. There's no wind in Ka D'Holgr..

Pne of the most intresting things of this planet is how the sun's light reflects in it's atmosphere, as it's not all smooth and perfect it makes some extraordinary light effects. There's a huge amount of underwater species, both animal and vegetal. It's said that the specie the Arkh-zaih come from still inhabit in the depths of Ka D'Holgr.

Personality: Liyyath was born and lives in Du l'abght, the Arkh-zaih capital. Daughter of a typical family. She is friendly, easy going, receptive. She has that positiveness that is so typical from the Arkh-zaih as long with the belief everything can be reached with work. Her biggest flaws are how irritable she can get when she can sunbathe as long as she wishes, that and that she can be really stubborn when things seem to not be posible, and as most of the Arkh-zaih she can't stand loud music.

She is studying to became a D'arlig, which is probably similar to diplomatics, though for the Arkh-zaih is applied to inter species relations. Inter species relations, in Ka D'Holgr, and the Saiph system. It's not an easy job, but Liyyath believes there should be people intrested in making everyone get along and avoid fights and conflicts between species, just because they are different.

So, Liyyath sees this pageant as a good way to get to meet and learn from species from other systems and not only hers, and also represent her species and her planet.

(Such as the Kaira. a huge lizard that likes to eat them). their skin is vary tan, cause its only night about 3 hours of their 32 hour day. They place jewels on their heads as a stature symbol the more you have the higher your stature. Their tails though fluffy looking are dangerous, spinny needles lay under the fuzz ready to strike an enemy if threatened and pralazie them with a poision. Long nails help them scale trees and harvest fruit, from them. though they love to get meat but due to the hot temps and low amount of food it is hard to get anything beond Braka meat (like a snake). The women love having long hair but only the high up women can actully take care of such hair, and have the amazingly beautiful sheer fabric.

Habitat Description: Her home is vary hot, so light fabrics must be worn as not to over heat and they stay close to water. the sands can vary in color from tans, to orange, to almost a red color during the seasons. Lush trees make wonderful shade by the small lake near her home. the sky always has one of the four moons during the day showing. (morali, trio, wapaki, or nanibi) Though once during each liakein life time, thier home goes cold and winter passes lasting a year. Makeing animals that like the cold wander up alowing them to have more food which is a prosperous time for them, but also difficult.

She's always dreamed about traveling around the universe and her own home of Sheliak. She loves children, and regularly sneeks out from home to play with the little kids in the small village but is sure to cover her forhead so no ones knows who she is. She had the tendency to be snoty, and shy at times and is rather mean to the men of her tribe. Shooting their marrage proposels into the dirt ruthlessly. She even shot down a prince from another tribe who lived near a jungle. Though she has a crush on a lower man in her tribe who basicly ignores her. She was pushed to do Intergalactic Star by her mother and father, so the only reason she agreed was to see other places and meet other beings from other planets.

Home Region: Sirius System, Planet 5: Arida
Species Name: Aridosi

Species Description: A beautiful blue-skinned people, the Aridosi are attuned to both the electrical and the natural. They build machines that are renowned throughout the Sirius System as well as the surrounding solar systems for their reliability and functionality. Their technology, however, is biologically based; it bonds well with living organisms. The Aridosi specialize in smaller machinery such as cybernetic body parts, which bond biochemically with a host organism and essentially become part of it. They pride themselves on multiple limbs, heads, even completely altered body states, such as four- or six-legged Aridosi. They are an exceptionally advanced species and are considered the most creative sentient beings in the Sirius system.

Habitat Description: Arida is a warm planet, gases trapped in by a cloud of vapor around it. It is a planet of pure life, where if left alone it would overgrow in less than a lifetime to become a completely wild jungle. The Arida, however, trim back the jungles to create wide open spaces for machinery; they use the materials they clear to develop their machinery. Nanotechnology has made self-repair an expectation among these creative peoples, and although they live in harmony with nature, they also are the masters of it.

Personality: Kal'r is what earthlings might call a "Cinderella" story, because she was left alone as a toddler in the jungle when her parents were killed as a result of a malfunctioning nanorepair unit. She lived there alone for three years before anyone found her, but with loving care, and considering her incredible innate intelligence, Kal'r survived to become what some might call "normal," although she is far more than that. Her coloring is most unusual for people of her race; most of them have jet-black hair and pale eyes, where she has brightly-shimmering hair and the iridescent animal eyes of a creature of the jungle. Her mother's race is unknown, but likely she is a cross between an Aridan and a Grethoan, the dominant race of Gretho, Sirius System Planet 6. Kal'r's unsurpassed beauty made her the equivalent of her people's chieftain, and she was secretly entered without her own knowledge in the Intergalactic Star pageant. She accepted out of a gracious nature because she loves her people, but ordinarily she does not seek the spotlight.

Name: Miii-pnos
Home Region: Luz’nakta (meaning “this that belongs to the Nakta”)
Species Name: Spicus virginius (human scientific classification) or Nakta

Species Description: A very territorial race who will fight great wars over lands and over which star is better. Humans might tend to think of them somewhat like ants: they have a queen who lays eggs and is the only female allowed to reproduce. The major difference is that she only lays one egg every 4 days in accordance with the position of the particular star that she is orbiting (because Spica is in fact made up of two different stars that were thought to be one for many years). Another difference is that she does not mate only once in her life like an ant, but rather must mate at least once per Earth year. This species have long lives with the average female living nearly 200 Earth years while males live about 50, and the queen lives 350 or more. The males are the lowest class in Nakta society and are made to do the most strenuous labor of all: raising the children. Each male receives one hatchling when he turns 25 and is expected to raise it until adulthood which also happens at the age of 25; hence the male’s shortened life span. The sterile females, not having to worry about child rearing, are the ones that move out of their queen’s colony when things become too crowded. These females are in charge of protecting their colonies and with farming a corn like plant that is their main form of subsistence. In many areas of Luz’nakta there are cities made up almost interlay of sterile females and queens who are too old to reproduce or who have been dethroned.

The physical description of this species is as follows: they have long pink hair that males often wear in what humans would call Mohawks while female hair varies in style depending on her class. Their skin ranges in color from blue to purple to black and their markings are blue, white, or purple. They are lean bodied, tall, and have very large heads given their bodies’ proportions. They have a language that is completely inaudible and is based on sent and taste, but they have the ability to speak some languages. They also have a written language which has nothing to do with their sent based everyday speech, but is the preferred method of communication across long distances.

Habitat Description: Both stars of Spica are a bright blue in color and look like one and the same from Earth, but the inhabitants know differently. The Nakat race lives mainly in space stations that they build to orbit one of the stars. Their belief is that the race originated inside the stars when they were still one, but that when the race “hatched” for the first time the stars became two. They breathe nitrogen gas and have a very high heat tolerance, which gives some credit to their story. Their true origin is not yet known, and they can live on just about any planet with enough nitrogen to support them and their favorite and only food. They do not need water like many other species, but instead most of their bodily functions rely on nitrogen based systems, much like some bacteria that can be found on Earth’s ocean floor today. The Nakat do not do well on planets where the temperatures reach below 17,000 Kelvin or where they can not find nitrogen amounts large enough for themselves and/or their food supply.

Personality: Miii-pnos is of the second highest class of females, the one just under queen. She attends her queen-mother, the highest honor that can be bestowed upon sterile females. The queen-mother chose her at a young age due to her beauty and the fact that she was not vying for the position like so many others. Miii-pnos is smart, energetic, and very modest for someone of her species, and especially someone of her class. She enjoys sharing stories and gossip with the queen-mother and other attendants, and her favorites are about other star systems and their inhabitants. Her queen-mother knew this and when news of the Intergalactic Star Pageant came around she ordered Miii-pnos to enter and learn all she could about other species. This means that Miii-pnos has a dual purpose for being in the pageant: learning all she can about the other contestants and winning!

Name: Sorscha Esdyr
Home Region: Planet: Anren (Tarazed IV)
Species Name: Anrenti

Species Description: The Anrenti planet is known for its harsh and diverse climates, which its people have evolved ideally suited for. They are hardy and adaptable, living comfortably in sub-zero polar regions and equatorial deserts, and are happiest living closely with the natural world. As Anren developed technologically and joined the galactic community, many Anrenti left their homeworld and many aliens moved in. Not all Anrenti are happy about this. There are several races of Anrenti, differences mostly depending on their home region and limited to coloring. All have bony "horns" on their temples, shoulders, and wrists. The men have larger and sharper ones than the women, and it is theorized their ancestors once used them for protection and sparring. Regardless of color, Anrenti all have multilayered skin and eyes that adjust to changing temperatures and light to a certain extent. They all have very sensitive noses, and their culture has developed with an aesthetic emphasis on aroma - wearing the right scent is as important to an Anrenti as wearing the right clothes. They always wear small pouches with scented oils and organic ingredients inside - usually around the neck or on the belt.

Habitat Description: Sorscha's people come from a "wasteland" region in the northern hemisphere, known as the Xelli Desert, or the Blue Desert, because of the color of the sand. The blue environment has given her race blue-tinted skin and hair, as well as pale, insulating skin to protect against triple-digit heat and sun in the daytime, and the sharp drop to mid-60 degrees at night. The cool nightfall allows hard-shelled and shade-shrinking planets to burst forth in the moonlight, transforming the desert into a vibrant savanna. Because of its mostly harsh conditions, few off-worlders live in the Xelli region. Sorscha's home of Iely, a small city of about 4000, is the largest in the region - most are small, more "primative" towns. Most Anrenti in the Xelli desert make a comfortable living farming a variety of plants, some for food, some for the lucrative perfume trade.

Personality: Sorscha Esdyr grew up in the Blue Desert and loves it like only a native can. She is athletic, tenacious, and inquisitive, with a fascination for science and understanding the way the natural world works. She lived in a small town surrounded by relatives until she was old enough to go to higher schooling; then she traveled to a large city in the South to study biology. In two years, however, she left the fast-paced, technological life and returned to Iely to study the ecosystem of the Xelli Desert exclusively. Businessmen, Anrenti and off-worlder alike, who want to develop the vast "wasteland" for economic purposes deeply concern Sorscha, and she hopes to protect her home by learning everything she can about the unique ecosystem. She is championing the movement to preserve the Blue Desert, throwing herself into the cause with a passion, determined to see it protected. Although you will most often find her with her knees in the sand, collecting plant samples by moonlight, Sorscha also plays a traditional Xelli pipe, enjoys visiting Anrenti "nectar bars" (which are like cafes plus samplings of perfume), and is training in the off-world martial art of Bi-Qen. She is a talkative, thoughtful person who enjoys getting to know all kinds of people, whether from other regions or other planets. She cannot cook to save her life, but will cheerfully outrun anyone who laughs at her for it. She entered the Intergalactic Star pageant to raise awareness about the Xelli Desert ecosystem and advocate for its preservation.

Name: Aghlean Stulk
Home Region: Zosma, the planet Roshine, the city Wu-Id
Species Name: Roshi

Species Description: Roshi's most distinctive feature is there head. The skull is elongated and pointed up, with a row of spines down the center. Their hair only grows in small patches towards the end of their head so it is spiked to match their spikes. The empty spaces of their skin, namely their protruding forehead and the side where no hair grows, is often used to decorate with tattoos. This evolved from their ancestors ancient tradition of war paint that was applied before tribal battles, but is now they serve no other purpose than decoration. Roshi has four arms, one small set just off their shoulders, which have three small pointed fingers, and a larger set below which has three long, thick fingers. Their larger arms are very steady and can hold a piece of paper steady enough for the smaller arms to write perfectly. It is very awkward for the Roshi to try and use their smaller more precise hands on a table surface as they have to hunch over to reach. In addition the Roshi are noted for their large thick legs. They have no toes or ankles, just large trunk-link legs which are good for keeping them steady in the water around their home. The "foot" of their legs is also usually tattooed..

Male and female Roshi are regarded as equals, with more of the men taking care of the housework and children. All Roshi seem to have a wanderlust, some more than others. It is most prominent in women, and female Roshi scientists were the first to discover interplanetary travel. The first space craft was flown by a small group of women who traveled to the next planet over. The planet was dead and was mostly dust, but the success of the travel is still widely celebrated among the Roshi and has even gained it's own holiday. Since then space travel advancements have sky-rocketed. The Roshi with extreme wanderlust have signed on to help, while others prefer to only go so far as leaving the cities for years at a time. A small amount may never even leave the city at all.

Habitat Description: The planet of Roshine is completely covered in a deep purple water. Roshi scientist speculate that there was once land above the water but it has all sunk over time. They build their houses on top of the shallowest water, but keep their doors well above the surface for when tide comes in. If the water is low, they go down the stairs from their door and walk about the city, but when the water is so high it reaches the edge of their doors, they travel in small individual boats, not unlike a smaller version of a gondola. In the cities in hardly ever rains, and always at night. Most Roshi live in the cities on the shallow land, but there are still some who live on house-boats and travel the large seas. They live off the sea animals they find or trade for food when they pass by a city. Teenage Roshi often over-glorify the life of the wandering seafarers and will set out to travel with them after they finish school. Most city Roshi come back very fast as they aren't used to the harsher weather outside the cities, where it rains even in the day out at sea.

Plant life on Roshine is not very varied, mostly their is a small grassy plant that grows in small patches on the uninhabited shallow land. It is edible, but not very tasty. Small shrubs can also be cultivated that provide a small variety of fruits. Most Roshi eat sea animals, but they recently started learning how to make their own food, and are experimenting with bringing in plants from other worlds.

Personality: Aghlean is one of those Roshi with very strong wanderlust. She's an apprentice scientist on the team that is working on cultivating plants from outside their own planet. She grew up in one of the major cities of Roshine, but when she graduated school she left the city for the sea life. She traveled with a small band for nearly five years before she finally went back to the city. However, she soon grew restless again and used her high grades in school as leverage to get into a science facility. There she worked her way into the space travel team and has been happy ever since.

She's a fun loving, but smart and modest woman. When the scientist found out about the pageant they elected Aghlean, who refused at first but at their insistence accepted. She is in the competition only to meet new people and find out about possible planet resources for food. She has an unashamed sense of humor, which has often gotten her in trouble, but her sincere kindness usually helps others forgive her quickly.
