Character
GENERAL INFORMATION
• Name: Tauroxians
• Designation: Sentient
• Origins: The Tauroxians originate from the snow-covered planet Frigoris, located in the outer rim territories of the galaxy.
• Average Lifespan: 120-150 standard years
• Estimated Population: Planetary (Several large concentrations on Frigoris, rarely found off-world)
• Description: Tauroxians are a sentient species resembling oxen, with thick fur ranging from fiery red to pristine white as they age. They possess powerful bodies, imposing horns, and a deep-rooted connection to their harsh snow planet.
PHYSICAL INFORMATION
• Breathes: Oxygen-based atmosphere
• Average Height of Adults: 2.5-3 meters
• Skin colour: N/A
• Hair colour: Shades of red to white fur
• Distinctions: Tauroxians are distinguished by their robust physique, thick fur, and imposing horns. Horn variations denote lineage and status within their society.
• Races: Different cultural groups may exist based on tribal affiliations, but no distinct physical races.
• Force Sensitivity: Rare (A small percentage of Tauroxians exhibit Force sensitivity, though it is not common within their population.)
Strengths:
- Adapted to extreme cold climates
- Exceptional physical strength and resilience
Weaknesses:
- Vulnerable to extreme heat due to their adaptation to cold environments
- Limited agility in comparison to more nimble species
CULTURE
• Diet: Omnivorous diet, with preferences for hearty vegetation and meat from native Frigorian wildlife. They avoid foods toxic to their physiology, such as certain types of algae found on Frigoris.
• Communication: Tauroxians communicate through a spoken language consisting of deep, resonant sounds and gestures. Body language plays a significant role in their communication as well.
• Technology level: Despite their rugged appearance, Tauroxian society boasts a level of technology on par with Galactic Standard, with advancements in cold-weather technology and architecture.
• Religion/Beliefs: Tauroxians follow a spiritual belief system centered around the reverence of nature and ancestral spirits. Rituals and ceremonies honor their connection to the land and the forces that shape it.
• General behavior: Tauroxians value honor, loyalty, and bravery, with a strong sense of community and family. They engage in hunting and gatherer activities, passing down survival skills through generations. Mating rituals involve displays of strength and endurance, with mates chosen based on compatibility and mutual respect.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The history of the Tauroxians is deeply intertwined with the harsh landscape of Frigoris. They evolved in response to the extreme conditions of their homeworld, developing physical adaptations and societal structures to thrive in the snow-covered wilderness. Over millennia, Tauroxian civilization flourished, with tribes forming alliances and conflicts shaping their history. Despite facing external threats and natural disasters, the Tauroxians endured, their resilience and unity proving to be their greatest strengths.
