Utterly Mad

Name: Norenfal
Designation: Sentient
Homeworld: Kore
Language: Noren
Average height of adults: 5'11" to 6'2"
Skin color: White with occasional variants of differing colors
Hair color: Varies
Breathes: Standard Oxygen mixes

Strengths: Intelligence-The Norenfal have always been an exceedingly intelligent people.
Weaknesses: Frail-due to their use of technology the Norenfal have become a frailer people from avoiding labor(this being said they are still capable fighters, just weaker than some other races)

Distinctions: The Norenfal are a bipedal people with two arms ending in hands with three fingers and one thumb each. They also have no visible visual sensory organs which are simply concealed by a thin layer of skin that prevents debris or similar from damaging the eyes while still allowing vision. The facial structure of Norenfal also tends to be much sharper in appearance and longer than what most species consider to be normal.

Average Lifespan:230 years (adult hood is reached around the age of thirty)
Races:
Estimated Population: 15 billion
Diet: Omnivorous
Communication: Verbal and sign language

Technology Level: The Norenfal are more advanced than the Rastal or Terrans, but the things they produce are sometimes less efficient than what could be produced with their technology.


Culture:The Norenfal have in themselves a large number of smaller cultures. The common tenants of their overall culture are a high value placed on both individualism and religion while being accepting of the beliefs and attitudes of others. Despite differing beliefs they come together in the defense of their people with military units often consisting of people from various beliefs, backgrounds, and world views.


History: [Describe an abridged history.]: The Norenfal have had several internal wars in their ancient history but more modern history has proven that no internal conflict has occurred for an exceedingly long duration. They entered the galactic scene and determined that very few other groups were their equals in terms of technological advances. That aside they found groups like the Venator to be an agreeable sort while they found the Rastal and Terrans to have views counter to their own, with the Rastal stamping individuality out of it's people and the Terrans looking down on religion. No recorded conflict with Terrans had occurred but the Rastal attempted to take over the newly discovered species.

The resulting war lasted for numerous years before a stale mate occurred with a demilitarized zone being established between the two groups. This situation is still ongoing with the two waiting for the other to make a move.

Notable Player-Characters:

Intent: Advance technology and defend the homeland

For the record, I'm down with a third, powerful race. Particularly one that has had recorded conflict with another one already at this point.

Two reasonably powerful races don't make sense by themselves anyway without a third to maintain a power balance.

the power balance is also why I made it where they don't really agree with Terrans either. Both dislike an element inherent to who the Norenfal are.

I'd say we should count this as approved provided Lork's ok with the Terrans also being part of the Cold War.

Also, a stated intent would be good, but not necessary. Just handy for anyone who hasn't been following along so far.

add a stated Intent which I think ought to fit the species.
