===Description:===
Baelus are a species born on a gas-heavy, gravity-light planet. While they do have several legs, in their natural state they float by expanding gas-sacs within specialized cavities. Baelus float comfortably on most planets, with slight assistance, and are capable of speech. The Baelus have a semi-hard shell similar to an insect. Politically and economically, the Baelus are fairly spread throughout the various sectors of the Tribunal. Though their weaponry and armor hardly fit the norm of Tribunal soldiers, the Baelus are capable of firing and aiming several weapons to at least some value during a battle. Baelus are known for their mizerdom and self-value, a Baelus merchant fills his store with the cheapest of wares and feeds himself before he pays his workers. Baelus make poor warriors, most being near-worthless upon the battlefield but in underground dealings he who draws gun first is most powerful. The Baelus have assimilated well into Tribunal society, working from trader to owner of trade as they live out their lives. It is rare for a Baelus to live beyond 50 solar years, though they have no major signs of aging (other than wear upon their outer shell, this being a most imperfect method of determining age). The Baelus Guilds of Trade joined the Tribunal for the benefits of citizenry in trade amongst the markets of the many species already part of the Tribunal, it was far more cost effective than paying the tariffs they previously were required to accept. Baelus may occasionally be seen releasing pressurized gas from it's digestive track, and though some company may find this behavior insulting; it is completely unintentional and harmless.
