The Talosians

The Talosians are an advanced humanoid race characterized by their enlarged craniums. They have very advanced technology, but no spacecraft, as they prefer to remain on their world. They had a turbulent history that culminated with a nuclear war. After a time the remaining Talosians rejoined together and began to expand their mental strength over thousands of years. They have little physical strength but have incredibly advanced telepathic powers, being able to project thoughts and highly realistic images over another's mind. Their low physical strength required them to obtain a workforce from other races, which caused some conflicts. They usually stand neutral with other races, having difficulty understanding others.

The Baneans

The Baneans are a humanoid race. In their past, they have had many wars with a races called the Numiri. They are overall peaceful besides their conflict with the Numiri, although they also have a very strict legal system. If someone is found guilty of murder, they are implanted with the last memories of the victim's life and are forced to relive them every 14 hours as punishment. They are capable of spaceflight and have fairly strong warships. They also have advanced technology, especially in the medical field.

The Hupyrians

The Hupyrians are a tall, quiet huamnoid race. They have very weak voices and only talk when neccesary. Many of their race are hired as servants for others because of their intense loyalty to those that are their masters, even dying to protect them. They have an average level of technology, however, none of the technology is native, instead being given to them by the Ferengi at their civilization's beginnings. They have no space capabilities. They are willing to cooperate with other races, although they are very unskilled in diplomacy.

How abou the Orions? I don't see them posted yet. And I think it would be really cool to have species 8472 in the game. But perhaps they can be made as a random factor, like the borg

as for species 8472, i'd say a no, because they can destroy planets and i've seen many people who say they dont want super weapons in this game and i think that they are not really a race thats of this galaxy.

just a question which minors descriptions are left to do ?

From what I've been told, Species 8472 will be a dangerous random event, like the borg. So make sure you're ready.

As far as the Orions, I dont know, I've seen people ask for them, but I don't think I've seen a definitive answer. As for myself, I hope the Orions make it in. They are far better known than some of the minors i've seen on the list. You could have their race specific structure be the Orion Slave Girl Strip Club! (1+ Morale) :lol:

Or more realistically, maybe the Orion Slave Network (Bonus to industry, with maybe a drop to morale?)

Either way, please include the Orions!

Raiden_rse--the minor descriptions that aren't done are any of the pictures with no caption on the first page.

Rigel/Hades--idk if the orions will be in, i'd like them to be in, all the races will probably be in eventually.

Iwullf--Here's another description

The Rakosans

The Rakosans are a humanoid species from the planet Rakosa V. They are warp-capable, with their ship technology being fairly rudimentary compared to most. Their ships are usually small and have light armaments and small amounts of shielding. Their technology is about at an average level. They are a peaceful race that enjoy making friends of other races, however, if they are threatened they will not hesitate to defend themselves.

The Yaderans

The Yaderans are a gentle race from Yadera Prime. They have advanced technology, especially in the field of holographic projections. They are able to make many holographic projections, including sentient ones. The Yaderans prefer to wear light-colored clothing and have a very distinct architectural style. The Yaderans are open to starting diplomatic relations with races.

The Boslics

The Boslics are a humanoid space faring civilization. They are recognizable to their prominent brow and purple hair. They are mostly a race of traders, and many Boslics have a bad reputation. The Boslics prefer peace, but think that wars might open new markets. They don’t have warships, and travel a lot with freighters, which are most of the time poorly armed. Boslics have a high opinion to those that have defended their freighters.

The Caldonians

The Caldonians are humanoid race with a love of research. They are a three fingered race and they are over six feet tall. Most Caldonians are scholars who are on a world committed purely to research.

And i've added a new race:

Night Race

The night race is a race of humanoid beings who prefer the dark. This species prefers to remain in solitude, and to avoid contact with other races. However they are a friendly society and only attack when their lives are threatened. Their ships carry powerful beam weapons and are capable of taking down most enemies. They prefer to attack in large number with small attack ships. Diplomacy might prove difficult with this race, but they are favorable to those that recognize their borders.

The Kellerun

The Kellerun are an advanced race of huamnoids. They are spacefaring with highly advanced weapondry technology. Until recently, they were involved in a centuries long war with the T'Lani.

They now wish to enter a new era of peace.

They have a low amount of ship technology but have highly advanced weapondry and can achieve fast warp speeds.

http://species.acalltoduty.com/
and this link i got from iwulff http://www.digisys.net/users/cosmo/races.htm
plus i search google.com with the phrase "x species" (replacing x with whatever race)

The Ornarans

The Ornarans are a humanoid species from the planet Delos III. They are characterized by an extra cartilage bridge on their nose. They can emit an electrical discharge that is capable of incapacitating others. Two centuries in their past, they suffered from a plague. The Brekkians supplied them with the drug Felicium, which cured the plague. Until the recent end to the freighter shipments, the Ornarans were addicted to the Felicium. Until recently, little progress was made technologically because of the costs of the Felicium. They have a technology level that is under par compared to most races. They do have spaceflight capabilities, but this is limited to some impulse freighters, and they do not have warp drive. They are now beginning to make friends with other races after their newfound freedom from the drug.
