The Sheliak 

 

Description: Intellectual species that view personal loyalty greater than all else

Biological Description:
The Sheliak are a non-humanoid species with 4 arms, and 6 eyes. Their bodies are suited to very hot environments and they die quickly in cold. They possess some crude telepathic abilities and live approximately 1300 years. They reproduce slowly, on average of 10% for every 200 years.

Society Description:
The Sheliak are an intellectual species and are organized based on large classes, which rule their world. These classes are all governed by a ruling body, which coordinates their activities on a global scale. They don't care much for aliens and prefer to pursue art and literature.

General History Description:
The Sheliak have had few relations with other species. Their rigid society has prevented much strife, though it has also prevented much technological advancement. They have had space flight for some time, but they don't see much use in it.
