Species

There are a multitude of species across all of Frozar's work from anthros to animals you'd find on earth, or even biomechanical aliens; the most common are listed below. However in a broad sense, humans can refer to homo-sapiens not just native to Earth; as in people with particular humanoid designs. Whereas anthros consists of *animals* with humanoid bodies. The term "alien" on the other hand usually revolves around a more abstract form of species.

## Humanoids

### Earthlings

Assuming YOU the reader are human and living on Earth, the name of the header is what you and the person writing this are. As far as biology and history is concerned, there's not much to say in comparison to other races in the universe. But the consensus of most alien worlds is that Earth borrows very similar societal norms and technology from places like Thex or Mechalo but aren't nearly as advanced as they are. It isn't without outside intervention from devices like the Astro Disk or the League of Mages that Earthlings are able to progress much as a species.

Although entire historic events have been shaped by different races in the distant past in very subtle ways, in modern times, Earth isn't considered for anything more than a testing ground.

### Brutes

Brutes are exactly what the name suggests. They are humanoid, towering individuals with impish features like a red or greenish skin color and long pointy ears. Contrary to how the Republic and the old Triumvirate perceives them, they come off as rather peaceful, usually training or having friendly rivalries based on combat. Even for those who are not up to standard and hit a limit, the Brutes would work tirelessly to accommodate for their skills, such as having a skinnier one who is exceptional at speed be a spy or archer. Because of their nature, many organizations throughout the galaxy tend to keep them as commanders or guards. The most famous being Buster, who serves a a bodyguard for Momo of the Lawless along with Mistress Izzy and Hive.

### Imps

Imps are about the closest Thex has to human beings on the planet. They, like the Brutes, are humanoid in shape but borrow what their name entails (impish qualities with long pointy ears, fangs, and a different skin color like blue, red, or green. Some say that Imps first appeared long before the Bardoss War as visitors from outer space who peacefully coexisted with the natives before essentially becoming natives themselves. Other reports suggests most, if not all of them, were at one point regular humans who slowly evolved into Imps due to breeding with pure anthros. Whatever the case, these creatures can be found casually living on modern day Thex along with anthros.

Sometimes, especially on Earth, Imps are referred to as Elves.

## Anthros

### Artrans

Artrans are generally depicted as a predominantly blue feline race with a slender exterior. They are the ones behind much of the current technology used by the Sigma Republic and is the species of the Techmosis duo in Anthroshock, as well as a few others. Because of their similarities to Thexians, they are often mistaken for members of that particular species' planet; made more confusing by the fact that tons of Thexians are hybrids. One way to distinguish them from each other is by determining if they're feline, have a particular shade of blue, and judging by how many toes they have as every Artran native has only 4 whereas a pure Thexian like Treah has 5.

### Thexians

This variety of different animal types with anthropomorphic builds are the predominant species on Thex, hence the name. They are perhaps the most influential in the Sigma Republic's history known for their prior existence with the human race that led to the latter's collapse after years of abuse on the anthros. Since then, society has been reshaped to suit the needs of the people with very little left of humanity besides the Imps who either weren't originally native to the planet or consists of highly evolved humans.

#### Common Animal Builds

* Canines (Foxes, Huskies, Wolves, etc)
* Felines (Lions, Tigers, etc)
* Bears
* Rabbits
* Sharks
* Hybrids (Nekos, Imps)
* Armadillos
* Moles
* Elephants
* Horses

#### Thin Skin

Despite coming from years of war in the past, modern Thexians are surprisingly easy to knock out compared to most races in the universe, even compared to Earthlings. This issue isn't highlighted when fighting amongst themselves until someone from another planet arrives; the worst of which takes the form of SH-1218 and 1219 who suffer a glitch where they always fight at peak performance. Based on historic and scientific analysis, it's safe to assume this is the result of Thexians becoming more lax as time went on after the Bardoss War, though this issue isn't properly recognized until Anthroshock.
