Lonian

Lonians are a race of Draconic warrior from planet Lonia of Draco Constellation.

## Appearance

Their Draconic form which is their true form resembles European Dragon and Wyvern. They commonly have gold and black coloration on their body, a long nasal horn, a pair of antler-like horns, 4 digit clawed feet and a pair of leathery wings. Their alternate humanoid form has a more humanoid body and their dragonic features are much smaller.
In their alternate form, they greatly resemble humans but they have a pair of horns similar to their draconic form, although slightly smaller, and they have spots on several parts of their skins that are scalie-like. They also have a pair of fangs and they have slit-like pupils.
Their size in their humanoid form ranges from 2 m to 2.3 m, while their draconic form is colossal, being 75 m to 150 m tall.

## Biology

Lonians have a lifespan of 500 years with a growth rate that's slightly slower than humans. Like most dragons from legends, Lonians have an excellent sense of smell, vision and hearing, and a powerful jaw, and their fangs are strong enough to bite through even the toughest metal. Being reptilian race, they have cold blooded biology and initially couldn't stand freezing environment for a long time during their early evolution. They eventually evolved a special organ that acts like a nuclear reactor in their body which generates heat for their body, allowing them to survive in frozen environment. However, this organ has a side effect; it causes their body to passively produce massive electromagnetic energy that disrupts the geomagnetic field of the planets they are not native to which causes natural disasters such as massive storm, tsunami, and volcano eruption, as well as making technologies malfunction. This organ's side effect can be neutralized by wearing special suppressor armor that absorbs the generated EM energy.

Lonians' bodies are able to produce bioelectricity and plasma which allows them to breathe out electricity, spit plasma and generate a plasma shield around them. In addition, Lonians' blood has a regenerative ability that is powerful enough to reattach limbs and regenerate entire lost organs and it also has an antibiotic and anti-carcinogenic properties. However, their regenerative ability is not perfect as there are some wounds that even it can't fully heal.
Despite their humanoid appearance in their alternate form, they are incapable of crossbreeding with humans due to them being closer to reptiles than mammals.

Lonians are generally carnivorous, and their diet are a lot of meat, although they can eat plants if they want to. In addition, they are immune to many types of venom and poison that are usually fatal to humans.

Lonians have an incredibly tough hide and scales that are so durable and heat tolerant, they are even able to resist the temperatures inside a sun, and the only things that are able to harm them are very powerful magic and divine weapons. Their hide and scales are also capable of absorbing energy such as sunlight that can permanently increase their strength and power. Their physical strength is so immense that they can easily lift celestial objects. Their body has an incredible amount of stamina, being able to withstand extreme temperatures, going without food for years, and can survive the vacuum of space.

## Culture and society

Lonians are a powerful warrior race and they are notorious for their strength and savagery. Despite their reputation for being bloodthirsty and brutal, they have a strong code of honor and respect. In their society, their rank and title is determined by the amount of achievements they made and they are not bound by any law except their own code of honor. This results in some Lonians being lawless.

They live in tribal-like societies, each tribe have a chief. The chief is the leader and the strongest member of the tribe. Each tribe is also led by an elder, a position that is passed down from one generation to another. There are no distinction between male and female roles in their society, both male and female can participate in warfare. Lonians value honor and bravery over everything else, and they believe that cowards have no right to live and are unfit to be part of their society.

Lonians are avid hunters and are known to have a taste for meat. They eat various kinds of meats ranging from animal to monster, and sometimes they even hunt other intelligent species for the sake of hunting.

Lonians' technology is still quite primitive. Their technology is not even comparable to the human's level. Lonians don't use firearms or any weapon that is not melee-ranged and their weapons are generally melee weapons made out of metal, wood, and bones. They are not aware of the concept of chemical weapon.

Lonians inititally were unaware of the existence of the Nexus gods and how they were created by them, and they were originally an atheist race for a few millenia. That changed when Chalundra, the goddess of starlight and the heiress of Nexus' throne, visited Lonia and met with one of its warrior inhabitant, Vhiktodra, in search of a suitable husband. The two fell in love and became mates, and soon after, Chalundra taught Vhiktodra and his people about the Nexus Gods, and how the gods were responsible for creating them. Vhiktodra then swore his tribe to Chalundra's service and the rest of his tribe followed.

As a race of powerful warrior, Lonians value power and strength, and they have a strong belief in the superiority of the strong over the weak. Their culture is a meritocratic one, where the strongest is respected and the weak are shunned. Those who are deemed weak or are useless are banished by their tribe.

## Government and politics

Lonians' tribal-like societies are usually lead by a chief who is usually the strongest member of their tribe. The chief's role is to lead and govern the tribe. Tribes also have elders, and their role is to pass down the history of the tribe. Tribal elders are usually wise old Lonians.

Lonians don't have an established form of government, as they live in tribal-like societies and don't have a formal system of laws.

Lonians' religion is a polytheistic one. They worship all the nexus gods, however they place most of their faith on the goddess of starlight, Chalundra, and the god of war, Morthaur.
