Alien Races

In Maskotia, alien races are a main aspect; Many aliens of different species, different backgrounds, but all with identical ancestory, appear as either enemies, neutral, or allies.
Alien races in the series are broken up into 3 distinct categories, based on their evolutionary lineage:
==Ancient Descendants==
These are races that descend from The "Ancients", who engineered many of the sentient races found throughout the series. Because of this, many of the aliens have similar features, such as round heads, big eyes, ect.
* Xenogaro
* Gellian
* Alkenite
* Wispellian
* Namodian
* Ut
* Schiinian
* Anglorian
==Varii Descendants==
These races descend from the ancient race, the Varii. Although the Varii were once strong allies with the Ancients, they slowly developed their own way of genetic engineering over time, which involved different strageties, such as infecting. transfecting, and mutating other creatures in order to assist them in survival.
* Hotazian
* Konfero
* Several of Nolan's races.
More will be written here later.
==Eloi Descendants==
The Eloi are the oldest known race in the entire universe. Being responsable for evolution to begin with, most races don't actually resemble them. Nonetheless, they technically created them.
* Technically, humans.
* Petauran
More will be written here later.
==Shade-based life forms==
While not a separate class of it's own, this subcategory consists of creatures and sentient beings composed of the Shade's sterilized material, after the events of Maskotia: Revelations. Shade-based life forms are devided into 3 main "castes":
* Shadster, Shadling, ect.- Derogitory names given to the petty, low-class Shade-based life forms. Most of these are just non-sentient animals that evolved normally after Shade material mixed with primordial ooze and Elonium. They have been known to posses a few special abilities such as hypnosis, self-duplication, and teleportation.
* Lygonian- The "middle class" of the Shade-based creatures. They are usually sentient, and possess slightly-advanced powers such as manipulation of the elements (mainly fire) and mind-reading. Some Lygonian-class Shade-based life forms have a special intangabiliy trait, making them ideal theives. Some Lyogians can live peacfully amongst the rest of the denizens of Mortal Maskotia's cities.
* Dybukk- The Dybukk class of Shade-based life forms are the most advanced, and are often dangerous. Collectively, they are called Dybucians (dih-bih-shens). Dybucians are capable of shape-shifting, telekinesis, manipulation of thoughts and dreams, and in some rare cases, low-level precognition. Most of them are sentient and extremely hostile. However, just like all creatures, there is good in some of them, and they can live peacfully in Maskotia and even have jobs, families, ect.
In most Mortal Maskotia-era cities, there are "Shade gangs", where 1 or several Dybukks become crime bosses. They enslave and recruit Lygonians to do their dirty work and ocassionally train Shadlings to do tasks as well.
