Oubdissian

The **Oubdissian** are a race of mammalian bombids native to the planet Oubdis. The Oubdissians fine-tuned fingers allow them to effortlessly scale wall or nimbly tinker with technology. Most Oubdissians sport an orange-colored coat of fur. As the founding species of the Oubdis Alliance, Oubdissians prize productivity, going as far as turning their homeworld into a planet-sized factory.

## Biology and appearance

The Oubdissian are a race of mammalian bipeds native to the planet Oubdis. As a bombid, Oubdissians have a torso, two legs, two arms, a bushy tail, and a head. Oubdissians have lanky arms compared to their legs. At the rear, there is a short, bushy tail capable of independent motion. Oubdissians are stout, standing at 1.15 meters tall and weighing 18 kilograms on average.

The Oubdissian's head is covered with bushy fur. Oubdissians have a small snout with flat nose. The mouth is small and lipless, being barely visible while jaw has 22 small, sharp teeth. Oubdissians have a thick set of sensitive whiskers on either cheek. Notably, the Oubdissian's large eyes have two sets of irises that can be emerald or yellow in color. The eyes have the ability to see in the dark. Above the eyes there are two small brows. Oubdissians have four ears with hyper-advanced hearing. The two largest ears can sense minute vibrations.

Both the hands and feet are hairless. The feet are stubby and have three clawed toes. The hands have a black palm with four fingers. The fingers of the Oubdissian are delicate with multiple joints, being able to bend in a variety of ways. At the tips of the fingers there are needle-like miniature claws that can slip into almost any hole. The Oubdissian's delicate hands allow them to effortlessly scale surfaces or nimbly tinker with technology. Though the Oubdissian's skin is black in color, it is almost completely covered by a coat of orange fur. There are sharp brown colorations on the tail and in a "mask" on the face.

Female Oubdissians give birth to live young in litters of up to five. Oubdissian pups are frail for their first few years, only becoming mobile around the age of four. Oubdissians mature at the age of 16 and live for around 65 years. Like most species, Oubdissians have two sexes that are assigned at birth, male and female. Like most mammalian species, female Oubdissians possess enlarged mammary glands and female reproductional organs whilst males have male reproductional organs. Male Oubdissians have larger facial whiskers while the females have additional fur markings underneath the eyes.

## Society and culture

Oubdissian culture values productivity to the point that laziness is considered as an offensive action. For an Oubdissian to be considered a functional member of society, they must be active the entire day. Oubdissians enjoy tinkering with technology and creating ways to be more quick and effective. As such, Oubdissians possess advanced technologies that have been spread to the rest of the Oubdis Alliance.

Oubdissian society is controlled by the Oubdis Alliance, with the Alliance itself being a large mega-corporation that originated on Oubdis. The Alliance is controlled by the Board, which has twenty-four Shareholders who represent major systems or companies. The being who leads the board is the Chief Commanding Officer or CCO.

Because of their fondness for effectiveness, the entirety of their homeworld, Oubdis, has been converted into a planet-sized factory. This allows the maximum capacity for creation, making Oubdis the center for Oubdissian culture and the Oubdis Alliance. Outside of their workspaces, Oubdissians commonly wear full cloaks and hoods, covering most of their body to protect their skin.

The main language spoke by the Oubdissians is Oubdese, a language with many slurring nouns that blend together. Because of the Oubdissian's status as the leader of the Alliance, Oubdese has become the default language throughout the Oubdis Alliance, right behind Bisish.

## History

The Oubdissians first evolved from a woodland scavenger on the planet Oubdis. Because of the species' cooperative nature, Oubdissian society was able to develop quickly. By the time cities were being built, a corporation called "Harvens Co." was founded in one city at the southern hemisphere. Over the next 60 years, the corporation was able to buy out and take control of the planet, renaming itself "Oubdis Co.". Under this new capitalistic government, Oubdis was able to gain contact with nearby races and begin the trading and construction of factories across the planet, which soon encompassed the entire body over the next 300 years.

At 262 YAO, the Oubdis Alliance was founded when Oubdis bought out the nearby Pessian Mining corporation, inducting a number of systems into the new alliance. Overtime, the Alliance has bought out a multitude of other corporations, allowing them to expand to millions of systems.

In the time since it's founding, the Alliance has constantly butted head with the other large government, the Outer Galaxy Coalition. Both governments have fought constantly over the Tridesxt Belt, an imaginary section of space between the government's borders. This nearly bubbled into war until the Coalition, Oubdis Treaty was signed.

The Oubdissians have managed to spread across the entirety of the Alliance. Many of the shareholders have been Oubdissians and seventeen of the twenty-two CCOs, have been Oubdissians.

## Oubdissians in the galaxy

As the founding species of the Oubdis Alliance, Oubdissians are an extremely common race. They make up a majority of the population of the Alliance, and non-affiliated individuals can be found commonly in the OGC and throughout the Unclaimed Regions. Oubdissians possess advanced technologies that have been spread to the rest of the Oubdis Alliance becoming the standard for the rest of the Alliance.

Most Oubdissians work in the Oubdis Alliance, most commonly on Oubdis's factories. Even most off-world Oubdissians work in mechanical-focused jobs, as engineers or factory workers.
