Extraterrestrial Lifeforms

### Space Biscuits

A species of leviathan non-sentient organic life existing in the outer atmosphere of Borr. Used to supplement the Radiance's food supplies, the creatures are delicious and have shown to have a positive effect on individuals mental health after consuming.

Hunting of the frigate sized creatures has become both a tourist attraction and a way of life for a small community. With small floating communities popping up in Borr's atmosphere centred around butchering and transporting the remains of the creatures.

### Trystakur

The Trystakur have colonised the Ziva and Myesyats systems, they are large Arthropod-type species much like beetles from earth. Though there are variants most have six identical seemingly dual-purpose limbs, their carapace suggests wings but this trait has not been visualised. Their chitin itself is iridescent much like Anoplognathus pallidicollis. Communication has been made with this species via pictograms drawn in the sand and a full disposition examination is still underway, at this time we know very little about their culture.

### Nympilium

The Nympilium seem to be some kind of intelligent flora that resembles the water lily (Nymphaeaceae) though with a much larger leaf presence on the surface and larger more prehensile roots submerged in the water. The species displays a unique trait of being able to change the colour of its leaves at will and used this to communicate with the exploration team. The Sulvitaris Council advised this species call themselves the Nympilium and their homeworld can be found in the Spinward Marches, however they were unwilling at this time to provide specific coordinates. The recovered Nympilium can currently be found in the establishment of Aragorn Aquila however, negotiations are underway to move it to an established embassy.

### Mi-Go

Pinkish creatures about five feet tall; with crustaceous bodies bearing vast pairs of dorsal fins or membranous wings and several sets of articulated limbs, and with a sort of convoluted ellipsoid covered with multitudes of very short antennae, for a head. They appear to be made out of some fusion of fungus and coral and have been observed in a statuesque state where they are non responsive. The Mi-Go do not appear on conventional image capturing technologies and dissolve upon death. They both use and are extremely interested in advanced technologies. They are both secretive and defend their outposts by either forcing trespassers in to servitude or by re purposing them, servitude results in as far we know the brain being removed from the body and placed in sealed jar where the person still has the use of their faculties. There seems to be a connection between them, Pluto and ancient Earth. Mi-Go are to be avoided as where possible and if you encounter one be aware that this species is telepathic.

### The Srir

Not much has been learned about the Srir in our initial audiences with the Ascendancy's ambassadors. What we know is that the Ascendancy is willing to open trade with the *Radiance*, set up a permanent embassy here on the ship among other things that are still currently under discussion. We currently do not know the physical appearance of the Srir as they wear incredibly ornate fully enclosed exo-suits, whether or not this is because of necessity, for our benefit or cultural reasons is currently unknown.

ADVISORY:

The Srir have treated us with respect, patience, and a willingness to communicate. We would ask that any and all personnel that would find themselves interacting any member of the Ascendancy to return this courtesy and comport themselves as the best representatives of humanity that we have.

### Ruscuv

Ruscuv is an ancient being that was trapped inside an asteroid in the Siebog system. Ruscuv possesses advanced Psionic potential and is currently inhabiting a clone body and living aboard the Radiance. He welcomes visitors, and is glad to not be imprisoned for the first time in thousands of years.
