KROMOKS

Planet of Origin: Second moon of planet Aktarka in the Milky Way galaxy.
Kromoks are an aggressive sentient species of furry anthropoidal humanoids who had developed an industrial civilisation as of the twentieth century. They are commanded by an alpha male and females seem to be kept aside from political and military business. While not possessing space technology, they are sometimes given some and used by the Stix, a species of another system, to fight against the inhabitants of Akatarka and their Galaxian neighbors.

AKTARKANS



Planet of Origin: Aktarka, an earth-type planet with two major continents and two very large moons that orbits around a G type star in the Milky Way galaxy. Although they will most likely refer to themselves as coming from the continent of the two moons (Continent des deux lunes) than as Aktarkans.
Aktarkans are humanoids that are undiscernable from normal Earth humans which have developped a pacifist non-expansionnist space faring technological civilisation more than 2000 years ago. They are known to have visited the solar system and have established some bases at least on Earth and the Moon. They are governed by a council and practice a strict birth control policy according to which a family cant have more than 2 children, which even seems to be an exception. Their population is very low and they are widely spread on the continent of Aktarka which always faces its two moons. They are known to send emissaries to less advance humanoid civilisations (which they call Inferior planets) and discretely tutor them.
If Aktarkans and humans have common origin remains unknown but their similarity lets believe it could be the case.
Aktarkans have mastered gravity manipulation, FTL travel, interstellar range communication and teleportation and limited time-travel. They appear to use automation and robotics as little as possible, same thing for genetic manipulations, although they seem to posses advanced knowledge in the field .

Such vehicles are equipped with 3 exploration shuttles, FTL drives and interstellar teleport stations.

ZULTANN / ZULTANNIANS/ ZULTANNIENS / BYRAMS

Planet of Origin: Byram, an Earht-type planet in theMilky Way Galaxy with two major continents, one called Zultanniam populated by the native Zultanns, the other, called Atlantis 2, populated by survivors of Earth's Atlantis some 12 000 years ago..
Zultanns are a humanoid species which has developed a monarchical peaceful space-faring civilisation. They are blad and yellow skinned, with large bleu eyes. Some are known to possess powerful psychic abilities. They've shared their planet with a human population which migrated on their world some 12 000 years ago following the fall of Atltantis. Contact between the two races remained scarce for a long time as each species occupies a distinct continent, and even with the advance of their respective technologies, they remained dubious about one another until a altantean princess got engaged to a zultann prince at the beginning of the third millenium. They are known to have come to Earth on rare occasions and are genetically compatible with humans. Half-breed offsprings are known ot retain most Zultann traits but with human hair and skin color.

KROONS / KROONIANS / SMURFS / SCHTROUMPFS


Planet of Origin: (most presumably) Earth. Planet of residence (in the far future): Kroona, a planet orbiting Alpha Eridani (Achernar), some 139 light years from Earth.
The Kroon are a sentient blue skinned humanoid species that will live on Kroona at some point in the future and which has developed an peaceful  advanced space faring technological civilisation with limited space time technology. They are fascinated by galactic history and exobiology and have studied many alien species, among which:
  • The Oruls of Zool
  • The Gaar of Garia
  • The Zimimoum of Vigal
  • The Buu of Gunn
 Despite their science, they know nothing of their origins, although they seem conscient somehow not being originary of their present homeworld. To that end, they developed the Retror technology, able to scan time and space. Using it, they were able to track down their oldest ancestor, a Smurf (schtroumpf), a small blue skin creature that lived during the middle-ages in the remote areas of the Europe region of Earth, a planet orbiting the G3 star Sol. How they came to move to Achernar and evolve into Kroons remain unknown.
They are known to have kept throughout the ages some clothing trends, i.e. pants, shoes and hats of a white color for the majority and of a red color for the leaders.

GALAXIANS /GALAXIENS

Planet of Origin: Original planet unknown. After it underwent a critical greenhouse effect some 2000 years ago. Three quarter of the population left in space arks and relocated on the First of the two moons of planet Aktarka, orbiting a G star in the Milky Way. A minority of Galaxians stayed on their homeworld but all contact was lost with the exilees.
The Galaxians are a pacific, even  friendly, species of one meter tall humanoids that have developed an advanced but ot expansive interstellar space-faring civilisation. Their skin was originally of a light orangeish color, but after their planet was exposed to heavier sun exposition, they slowly turned s to black over generations. Those who relocated to Aktarka's moon turned to green skin. All quite ressemble bald teddy bears. A minority, mainly among females, have been known to develop psychic powers.
Galaxian society is very democratic, one with a constant )sometimes even daily) exchange of social tasks even in the sharing of tasks. The annual head of state is called the Prince-of-the-Year and is the Galaxian who received the most merit points over the past year.
Over him is the Council of Elders which is made up of five Galaxian patriarchs which seems to be an half-honorific title for those chosen as they dont always seem to have much credit given to them.  The younger Galaxians are quite aware of their elders deficiencies and often take them half-serously.
