Maroonans

## Overview

Maroonan's are humanoid creatures that originate from planet Maroona. Fierce and Animalistic, they specialize in combat, endurance, and unfiltered anger.

## Features

### Anatomy

Maroonans are typically agile humanoids, males ranging from 5'9 to 6 feet tall, anything less being considered handicapped, with Females being in the late 5s to 6 ft.

They have a variety of red skins, spanning from every type of the color red (including some pinks), and have sharpened teeth as they get older. Their skin can also withstand up to 700 degrees Fahrenheit, due to the planet's extremely hot climate

They all have incredible metabolisms, and muscle growth on their body is very accelerated, due to their bodies using every last piece of nutrients they can find. Maroonans rarely have to use the bathroom for anything, and their stomach acids are so potent that mostly anything considered indigestible by humans is fine for them.

Maroonan DNA allows for the use of specific powers, those with the strongest abilities are elected into the Royal Family jobs.

Some Maroonans have a gene that makes their fingers sharpen to a point over time as their bones develop.

This trait comes from the fact that they derive from the Maroonan Hound, instead of tracing their ancestry back to ape-like creatures. The offspring of a hound had an enlarged brain, causing it to use its cat-like hands to climb trees, swim faster by spreading its fingers, and even its children using tools after a discovery. eventually their legs began to invert, and they were able to stand up straight. After that the rest is history.

Some very lucky few Maroonans are born with an ability called a "Spike". This Spike is the closest thing they have to being born with superpowers. Most of them are simply matter manipulation, such as Spiral, who's Spike gives him the impressive ability to channel atoms around himself, using microscopic combining of them to propel his body, giving him super speed. This works as well with his regular body, as his muscles, metabolism, and brain are all accustomed to his capabilities.

The first Member of the Crimsal Family, Ki'hagha, used her incredible spike to put an end to the great Maroonan civil war, and passed it onto her children, who began a cycle of powerful heritage that would span for generations.

### Life

After exiting a blood pod, the baby will begin to rapidly grow, appearing like they are 5 years old by the 6th week after emerging. When they truly are 5 years old, they are taken back to an acceleration chamber, where they are placed for a day to learn everything needed in order to prosper on the planet, which they emerge from with an average intellect.

Eventually the child will grow old enough to get a job, and serve the Royal Family.

### Diet

Due to their placement in their solar system, crop growth is maximized for extreme nutrition and vitamin value, despite being mainly desert. They also hunt after wildlife, like Crimson Hounds, Snathwyns, Gorgonas, and occasionally Gigglers.

### Reproduction

Maroonans have sex just like normal humans, but modern day pregnant mothers can have their fertilized eggs extracted, and let them grow inside of advanced blood pods, allowing the parents to modify their genes, and accelerate their growth.

## Trivia
