Genembio

== Overview ==
Genembio (Antallagí Fýlou), is a species that evolved from Eldham.
They have a slime-based body that can increase and decrease metabolisms and chromosomes to change their biology and gender. When their group is low on females they will switch to the gender which is needed to reproduce. They are a rather new race but adapt quickly, thanks to their morphing ability they can mix with many groups and are quick learners of technology and philosophy.
The Genembios originate from the Southeastern areas of Eldham where it was generally peaceful. They were in a civilisation stage where they only had basic forms of weaponry for hunting. They are a nomadic type of species with a strong shard sense of bond even between rival tribes. They do not worship any gods, instead, they only worship spirits that they believe are the souls of past creatures. 
Until the migration from Rathnir to Eldham, their lives remained stagnant and repetitive. Once the first settlers from Rathnir came, it brought around new philosophies and technology which the Genembio came to utilize heavily. However due to the surge of settlers, many who came to meet and see the Genembio were horrified by their monster-like appearance. This led to Genembios being outcasted and hunted until they slowly became forgotten due to their interspecies compatability masking them in the large populations of other species. 
== Appearance ==
They have a body made of slime which can turn into organic matter when needed, the slime can also change color at will. Genembios do not have a specific height but in their original form, they can range from 6'3 to 6'7. The most commonly take the shape of humans but can transform into a multitude of shapes ranging from gigantic dragons to tiny ants. They have an average lifespan from 61-130 years but it reduces depending on the species it transforms into with larger more powerful species lowering the life expectancy.
They are rather resilient however their weak and fragile cores provide their enemies an easy and quick way to kill them. Due to this many Genembio groups would rather stay neutral or pacifist to prevent mass death of what would innocent Genembio. In rare cases, some Genembio are capable of having 1-2 extra cores which doubles or even triples their lifespan. 
Their eyes can be anywhere in their body but they are usually near the core. They can't get sick or can't get injured unless the core is damaged in which case they will feel injured and have the same responses as an injured human.
== Major Groups. ==
=== Serrona Genembio ===
The most common type of Genembio, they were the first to be found by the explorers from Rathnir and the most persecuted. In recent years however they have managed to recover and now hide from any who tries to find, locate, or hunt them.
=== Vanimbus Genembio ===
They are one of the rarest sub-species of the Genembio genus for past Genembios that migrated to the continent of Onthukan lacked any sort of adaptation to survive. However those who did manage to survive lived on to develop more rock-like slime that is capable to be transfigured into any weapon they please.
