  King Tribe

  Nearly extinct tribe, ruminants are located on Delkeedo. The King Tribe held nobility and personal achievement at the highest honors. Before the Wersillian War, they perused knowledge of old arts and sculptures.

  Laser Cells

  A qwayk designed small casing of solar energy focused into a tight space. Reloadable and multipurposed for all qwayk-based weaponry.

  Legionnaire Program

  One of many programs apart of the integrated ARW’s military. This program is designed to create 1112 independent squads consisting of six individuals. Each squad is tasked with small but essential missions. Legionnaires are considered amongst the most elite squads at the ARW’s disposal.

  Lycargan

  Encountered in 2098, this alien species is from the Draynought System, inhabiting two planets. Lycargans have been known to spend an unordinary amount of time inactive or in thought. They are religious extremists that justify any and all means as a necessity to their beliefs. Lycargans are known for taking long periods of time before acting on situations but can make quick decisions if necessary. They enjoy causing emotion or physical distress to other species for sport. Though, little more is known about lycargan culture or history.

  Lycargans are naturally armored around most vital areas of the body and have scaled skin elsewhere. Reptilian vertebrates, these beings are not as strong, but have far superior durability than humans. Their feet resemble hooves and are mostly flat. Although bumpy and rough, their heads are round. Lycargans have an enormous, stubby bump extended out of their backs. Their skin and eyes are various shades of brown and is spotted all around. Lycargans also poses a strange ability to roll into an armored ball and control the direction at which they roll. [For more information on lycargan anatomy click correctly labeled tab below]

  Maelkii

  Founded the ARW in 2061, this species is from the planet Maelkiin and are the only ARW founding species that originate outside of the Qwayk System. Other than the mythological devisors, Maelkii are the oldest known intelligent species in the Milky Way Galaxy. Maelkii value companionship, loyalty, and self-sacrifice. Warriors are considered to be one of the highest valued position among their society. Society, traditions, and culture can vary depending on the sub-communal houses that maelkii are born or married into. For example, traditionalist houses believe that lifetime partnership leads to powerful armies and they encourage family to fight side by side with each other. Maelkii are the only species apart of the Alliance of Republic Worlds to choose not to colonize among other worlds, preferring to stay on their home planet.

  Maelkii, on average, weigh roughly four times the average weight of a human and grow a few heads taller. They are nearly nine times stronger than a human and have skin that can be more durable than lycargan natural armor. Their eyes are like black abysses with a center glowing pupil and they have upside down triangular mouths. Their heads look too small for their bodies. Maelkii skin and eye color consist of shades of red, orange, and yellow. Bull-like feet and small spikes follow their spine to the top of her head.

  Maelkii Honor Pledge

  Official document that allows maelkii to fight alongside loved ones.

  Maelkiin

  The home planet of the maelkii, this planet is too hazardous and toxic for most species to visit or live on without the use of special equipment. Some theorize it is due to the harsh conditions on this planet that the local wildlife and the maelkii evolved to be as durable and large as they did. The ecosystems and biomes most prominent are volcanic or hot spring-based. The weather is harsh, and the temperature is typically hot. This planet is also nicknamed “The Lonely Planet” due to it being practically in the middle of nowhere at the edge of the known Milky Way Galaxy in the Maelkiin System.

  Magnetic Lock

  More notable called mag locks, these devices where created by the Order of Aegis in 2096. These devices use a compound called magnetifer to hold an ARW issued weapon in place for easy access. All ARW issued weapons were fitted with a strip of magnetifer to attract to the mag locks.

  Magnetifer

  Special compound created by the qwayks in 2065 to attract and repel only itself. Additionally, magnetifer is very easy to adjust the magnetic intensity.

  Universally used as an antibody system given to individuals at child birth. Nano-immunal Technology is programmed to specific species’ bodies for maximum efficiency.

  Navigation Computer Technology

  Qwayks installed this technology in all vehicular automobiles after the year 2067 as a means of transportation on their three occupied planets. Using satellites, the navigation computers can direct cars from one location to another, while taking in account other vehicles and the environment. Later programmed to work with all planets or moons occupied by species under the ARW.

  Omelic

  Omelics were first encountered in 2082. Omelics typically keep to themselves and out of galaxy wide conflicts and are considered amongst the strongest neutral societies. Due to their home world’s vastly dangerous conditions and wildlife, omelics have built vast kingdoms and still
remain divided as a species. Their society is male dominated were women are treated more like objects than people. Though, it is rumored some kingdoms are heading to a more cultured viewpoint. [For more information on omelic culture and history, click correctly labeled tab below]

  As mammalian, vertebrate beings, these beings resemble humans in unexplained ways, even having the ability to breed with humans. Omelics are twice as strong as the average human. Though, they display less self-control. Their skin can vary in shades of purple while their eyes can be any color a human eye can be along with being yellow or purple. Like qwayks, omelics hair is commonly white. However, unlike the qwayk, their hair can be shades of grey. Omelics grow to be, on average, slightly taller and slightly heavier than average humans.

  Prototype-2 Power Armor

  Approved for active duty in 2108, this expensive, full-body armor replaced the Prototype-1 series. Created by the Order of Aegis, this sleeker, slimmer design was an overall improvement of its predecessor. The Prototype-2 series is powered by a fusion core located at the back of the armor. Includes a rechargeable shielding layer as a primary line of defense, veridium plating as a secondary defense, and a lightweight titanium plus caringhick-gem in-layered weave to keep the occupant safe and comfortable. Is currently only designed to be used by humans or qwayks. [Further information is Classified by Order of Aegis]

  Pursuer

  Dubbed the “Pursuer” by the ARW, this all-terrain ground vehicle is designed to be multipurpose and adaptable. Its spiky yet lightweight design make it almost as fast as a Raptor. Armed with a plasma cannon at the back, it is exceptional against armored vehicles.

  Qwayk

  Allied under ARW in 2068, qwayks were the first official alien life to reveal themselves to humans after humans made their first jump to Mars with slip space technology. When the qwayks first contacted earth, they offered humans a chance to join the ARW, and the worldwide senate on Earth voted to accept. This species is from the Qwayk System, where they inhabit 3 planets, Grathefer-Qwayk being their home planet. Qwayks pride themselves on a high-class society and consider themselves very technologically focused. Furthermore, qwayk society is focused on pleasure and, as such, they have next to no discrimination against race, sex, or orientation. Nor is it uncommon to find qwayks with multiple spouses. Qwayk architecture is considered nothing short of beautiful and genius. [For more information on qwayk culture and history, click correctly labeled tab below]

  Qwayks have white, flowing hair and light-gray to pale white skin. On the face of a qwayk, they have wrinkle-like waves that start from the base of their eyes and finish at their chins, which the qwayks call vantors. As mammalian, vertebrate beings, qwayks are one of the most humanoid species known. They have typically nimble builds, making them not as strong as humans. However, they have longer foreheads than humans, giving them larger brains. Females usually are smaller in size and either have green or yellow-green eyes. Males have either teal or blue eyes.
