Aegen

The Aegen are a sapient humanoid race native to Askade.
Aegen are 
about two meters to three meters tall and have two glowing eyes that 
blink normally, digitigrade legs, semi-permeable skin covered in scales,
 four fingers on their hands (of which two are thumbs) and toes, broad 
chests and shoulders, and narrow waists with slim midsections. Extending
 back from the crown of the head, Aegen have a bony crest. Beneath it, 
emerging from the back of the head, are the nerve cords, allowing them 
to access their racial psionic gestalt. 
These beings are 
considered to have purity of form as the Aegen are incredibly adaptable 
to harsh natural conditions and climates, and their strength and speed 
were unparalleled amongst the other races. Aegen even have sharp claws, 
which can be deadly weapons if an Aegen is caught unarmed. 
Aegen 
derive sustenance from light, capable of living off moonlight (reflected
 sunlight), and can go without light for extended periods of time. What 
little water they need is absorbed through the skin.
The Aegen used to hunt, but they did so to collect the blood and hides of animals for various purposes, not for sustenance. 
Living of sunlight is the case for almost all life on Askade.
Aegen
 hear and smell through their skin, and it is believed that their 
primary sense is sight. Aegen have a sense of smell sharp enough to 
identify other Aegen and see very well at night. An Aegen' skin color 
may change in response to changes in its emotions. They are bereft of 
mouths, noses, or visible ears and are without a sense of taste. They 
possess three hearts.
Aegen sleep and dream in a manner similar to
 humans. When particuarly emotional, streams of energy have been 
observed to stream from a Aegen's eyes, similar to how a human might 
cry. Eye colors include blue, green, gold, and red. The proliferation of
 eye color corresponds to kindred. Aegen blood is blue or purple.
Aegen communicate through brainwaves. This does not mean they are mind readers. Aegen can only read when one of their own kind is speaking or other species when they wear a special device. They can also read personalities through these brainwaves and feel your emotions.
The Aegen mainly live on Eabias space Station, on their homeplanet Askade and in the Space Forts of the Star Bridge.
