## Planetary Data

This large vessel was discovered when it began to orbit the Delta 6 Geolyte colony, where they were introduced to the local species, and subsequently to the rest of the sector.

Cirquerrant is a very large space station made out of 6 twisted looking tents planted on a wood like spherical structure, where many of the residents are presumed to live. The inside of the station is largely unknown, as the natives are very secretive about their home, and only certain areas of the place can be seen.

The "public" interior is a dark, twisting maze of different public attractions, with walls made out of the same textile used to cover the station, with a leatherlike floor. What can only be described as pulsing veins occasionally sprout from the floor and spiral into the ceiling of the tents.

### Inhabitants

The Cirquers are bizarre beings. They're jet black bipeds with a red cape like growth growing from their shoulders, These beings have a crescent shaped head with two large scarlet eyes with little to no sclera. They're very agile and in low gravity they can fly using their capes as wings. They can also resist to vacuum and large radiation doses.

Not too much is known about Cirquers. They tend to be mischievous, but are otherwise friendly and extremely good negotiators; often being able to convince other races to do their bidding, mostly by the extensive use of contracts. They love magic tricks and circus acts and are well known acrobats even in the highest gravity. The technology level of the Cirquers is very high, often referred to as magic.

The true purpose of this species is currently unknown. According to them, their vessel nears an inhabited world and becomes a satellite of it for a few decades, where the natives and the Cirquers interact, usually by selling uncanny and impossible to replicate technology. After that time has gone by, they fly off into another inhabited star system. Having Cirquerrant as a temporary vendor can be beneficial but there's a catch: the vessel's government's only acceptable currency are large amounts of people, hopefully volunteers but they don't really mind if they're forced. The Cirquers have no qualms in telling the universe that the people they receive as payment are turned into one of them through a long process similar to the molts of an insect until becoming a crewmember of this wandering circus.

Cirquerrant is a very small body. As such, their ground launches are slow with a medium to small force behind it. However, the Cirquers' uncanny technology accelerate mid air launches, making them go up and down very quickly in a way similar to Mekks, as if someone was juggling the Meteos.
