Pheonii

## Introduction

Pheonii ( Fi-O-knee ) or Pheoni ( Fi-O- Knye ) For plural amounts of the species. They are a mischievous species to others, but to themselves, they all seem to have an odd bond. Not being particularly hostile without good reason, they all rely on one another to make sure they can survive at all odds. Compassionate creatures, Teamwork seems to flow through almost all of their variations. This began to change in later years as space travel became more prominent, and Pheonii returned from other planets jaded. Uncaring for their comrades who welcomed them back with such open arms. This decay became noted and has caused a split of 65% of the population still retaining this compassion, but the rest having a rather jaded cynical attitude. They reside upon the planet Delphonis

## Anatomy & Physiology

Pheonii are varied creatures, all with a ranging base set of colors that can be lighter or darker varying from each and every Pheonii. These colors help signify the blood color of the said Pheonii. Though the colors are typically mute, on multiple occasions brighter colors can be observed within their society.

There are four Variantions of Pheonii, all with different attributes tailored to that specific Variant. Any Variant can have Any Bloodcolor, though some Variants are more likely to have specific colors tailored to them. Going off the color specifications we have going on, the sclera of the Pheonii dictates the color of the patterns upon its body. Common things that have been noted to be overall for the Pheonii are that they cannot mix Variations. An Avian Variation cannot mix with a Reptile Variation, and a Insectoid Variation cannot mix with an Aquatic and so on and so forth. Mammalia are completely unable to be altered into any Pheonii Variant. Pheoniis' trademarked manner of survival is taking DNA of other creatures and adapting it into themselves. An odd selective adaption of traits that they bring into the *Absorption Pods* which are then later combined and create an entirely new Pheonii. These said *Absorption Pods* are managed by *The Overseers.* Said Overseers ensure the pods, and *Bymphs ( Bin-imf )* continue smoothly.

Pheoni technically do not have a set gender. They can traverse between being both Masculine and Feminine presenting at any time they wish. Though to shift between these presentations takes about three days. It is common for a Pheonii to get more comfortable in one presentation. Although it isn't completely uncommon that a Pheonii shifts Presentation within their lifespan and takes on a Masculine and or Feminine presentation and sticks with that presentation for the rest of their life. This can shift their colors and other attributes which can affect the time in which it takes for them to shift presentation.

### Aquatic Variant

This Variation is commonly associated with the deeper more violet-based hues upon the color scale. Typically that of a rich Violent and Fuchsia. These Variants are infamous for their bioluminescent patterns that can display both upon their normal patterns, and hidden upon their skin. These bioluminescent patterns can be used as communication between deep sea-based Aquatic Variants, or just as a visually appealing attribute for normal Aquatics.

These Variants have fins and gills upon their bodies. How noticeable these said Fins and Gills are range between each Pheonii. They also have a digitigrade leg type just like the Avian Variant. The Aquatic Variants also have noticeably good nigh vision within underwater Caverns. However this said night vision does not work nearly as well upon land. They can sustain themselves while on land on the air, but they cannot go for long periods of time without being exposed to some form of liquid. Continuing on without said exposure can result in different parts of their body entering a comatose state. This said state can be life-threatening if left untreated.

These Pheonii have sharp teeth both in their mouth and in the back of their throat, making for a rather scary display if you gaze into their mouth on accident while underwater. These said teeth will go into a ‘ docile ‘ state while the Pheoni are on the surface so that no food can get caught between the teeth and the fleshy wall of the throat. Allowing them to properly consume food while on the surface.

Temperament wise these variations are more upon the tranquil side of things. Opting to talk or completely ignore their issues rather than start a fuss over them. This allowed them to adopt a type of patience which then propelled them into being more medically talented than the other variations. They also have come to be the most technologically advanced than any other Variation. This mixture of calm patience along with technological advancements has allowed these variations to be most favored amongst outsiders.
