    Okay, I'm going to repost the race descriptions here with a few RPG specific additions. I figure they're relevant.

    Sorry about what is effectively a quadruple post.

    Crainos Maestra

    The Crainos Maestra dwell in the mountainous regions of the planet Sato. An insectoid race, they evolved from a large, ant-like race, developing their mental abilities far beyond the other endothemic sentient lifeforms of the planet, to the point where they are capable of telepathy and telekinesis.

    They have long since outstripped the insect-like trait of relying on a queen for reproduction, all females gaining the ability to reproduce. However, there is still a ruling 'hive-mind' at all times, allowing all but a small few of the race to share their thoughts.

    Four castes exist within the Crainos Maestra. Their is the ruling group, the Prime Maestra, which are responsible for guarding, and if necessary, replacing the hive mind. Then there are the Crainos Telek, the worker class which use their immense mental strength to telekinetically complete otherwise strenuous physical tasks. The Crainos Ology are the class responsible for the technology behind the Crainos Maestra, working in the areas of science and engineering. There is one final class of outcasts, known only as the Abandonned, which while possessing mental abilities far beyond that of the rest of their race, are incapable of the hive communication, and therefore forced to live as outcasts.

    The young of the race are born as small, gel-like cocoons with small legs allowing movement. Approximately three years after birth, these legs retract and the cocoon hardens, allowing the young to grow inside. After a year, the young hatches, and grows to adult size, although with limited mental capabilities. At the age of ten, they enter a month of meditation, emerging as fully capable adults.

    Names: Individual first name, followed by a number (indicating a 'family') and the second word in the caste name (Maestra, Telek or Ology). Outcasts have one name only.

    Attitude: Generally calm, always more concerned with the well-being of the hive than their own selves. Indifferent towards the other races, they do not generally show emotions towards those outside of the hive. Outcasts are completely individual, showing few trends apart from a tendency towards avoiding the Prime Maestra.

    Weapons: Predominantly pistols and rifles, their weaponry relies on avoiding close contact. Plasma is the primary source of ammunition, although certain chemical devices and lasers are also used.

    Customisable Physical Stats: Usually between 6 and 8 foot tall, with an exoskeleton which is either olive green, navy blue or black. They do not die of age, but will lose their mental abilities after about 150 years, after which time they will normally commit suicide out of shame.

    Shados Shadann

    The Shados Shadann are a race which evolved in the forest regions of Sato, avoiding the other races for as long as possible, relying on sabotage to resolve any conflicts which they entered into.

    As the technolgy, most specifically, of the Crainos Maestra devolped, however, they began to see that contact with the other races could not be avoided and opened contact with the remainder of the planet.

    Even with these new alliances, the Shados Shadann remained suspicious of outsiders, beginning to develop both superior sensors and cloaks, in order to allow them to continue their separation. Also, in an ever lasting quest to improve their methods of sabotage, they became experts in the fields of explosives and chemical reactions.

    Physically, the Shados Shadann are a small, weakly built race, rarely exceeding 5 feet in height, with very little muscle in their build. They are capable of moving without making a sound, and are known to approach unseen in broad daylight.

    The Shados Shadann have a democratic society, with each family electing a representitive to their Legislative Assembly. All decisions are then passed by this group.

    Their most used weapons, when combat is required, are explosives, long-range rifles, battle knives and explosives.

    Names: Family choice, normally based on a family name followed by a descriptive name.

    Attitude: Highly suspicious towards anybody outside of their race, only a few liberal thinkers willingly engage in non-imperitive contact with the other races. Generally friendly towards other members of their race. Avoid danger at all costs.

    Weapons: As previously stated, knives, explosives or long-range projectile rifles. Generally used in conjunction with stealth technology the allow close proximity to a target without entering danger.

    Customisable Physical Stats: Between 3'6" and 5', hair colour can be any 'normal' human colour with additions of various shades of green. Can live up to the age of 80.

    Vires Virtus

    The Vires Virtus are a tribal race, scattered across the planet Sato. There are four major tribes, roughly separated into the North, South, East and West. They are a physically dominant race, lacking in mental ability.

    In reality, the Vires Virtus are a hybrid race, consisting of descendents from both the Crainos Maestra and the Shados Shadann. Early in the development of these races, undesirable elements emerged which neither wanted in their bloodlines. Many of the Crainos Maestra were being born without the enhanced mental abilities of their race, and subsequently cast out of the hive. Within the Shados Shadann, a small group of families tried to begin communication with the Crainos Maestra, and were disowned by the Legislative Assembly.

    Slowly, these two groups of outcasts joined together, forming a hybrid society utilising the abilities of both groups. Over time, evolution melded the two races together, forming the new physically superior Vires Virtus.

    From birth to the age of 21, the Vires Virtus are very human-like; their complete lack of hair the only distinguishing feature. Upon initiation into adult-hood, however, they enter a cocoon of slime released through their pores, emerging with an immensely tough exoskeleton of the colour of their choosing.

    Due to their background, the Vires Virtus shun technology, stealth and science, instead relying on brute force and mêlée combat to survive. They are specialists in sword and axe combat, using the strength of their external skeletons to survive ranged attacks from opposing forces.

    In order to avoid conflict between the tribes, members of the ruling family are often traded, meaning the each tribe holds leverage over the others. Only recently have the tribes agreed to join under the planetary government, recognising the possible benefits that opening communication with their genetic relatives could bring.

    Names: Choice of the individuals after initiation.

    Attitude: Usually aggresive, especially towards other races. Attempt to engage in all forms of combat regularly.

    Weapons: Bare hands, swords and axes are preferred, however any mêlée is accepted. Generally practiced in at least two methods. Never use ranged weapons.

    Customisable Physical Stats: Between 4'9" and 6'5". Can live to the age of 60, but due to consant conflicts, rarely live beyond 30.

    heres my character profile see if there is anything wrong then tell me ok you know just so i can fix it up..

    Name: Nalaex 5 Telek
    Age: 36
    Section : Crainos Telek

    Background: He is part of the Crainos Telek (worker class) however he has been breaking the hives rules and helping the Abandonned. He doesnt see why a part of nature should be cast out when they are better then the hive or so he has been told, He is sort of a missionary as he leaves the hive regularly to help with the others less fortunate, he has been caught many times, so his body is marked with scratchs his exo skeleton is olive green. He sees the abandonned as the awakenned and sees himself inferior to them, he is stuck with a hive mind but they are free, to do and to dream what they like. His outward way of thinking has caused rebellion in his small setting inside the dwelling, many see him as a treat to their surrvial but the hive mind has let him live so far and when he spoke with the hive mind, he realised that they had a use for him, but he would understand what use later on. He was given a light material transport for his work.

    Weapon: pistol but because of his metal abilities he never uses it.

    transport: he was given a light material transport for his work.

    You may wish to include mode of transport in your descriptions, but otherwise good. What's your exoskeleton colour RB?
    Here's mine anyway, it may change if there are too many Crainos Maestra, but for now:

    Name: The Abanndoned
    Race: Crainos Maestra
    Caste: The Abanndoned (oddly enough)
    Age: 65
    Height: 7'
    Shell Colour: Navy Blue

    History: As with all the Abanndoned, he was found to lack the connection to the hive soon after coming out of meditation. After many years of wandering on the outskirts of his village, he was approached by the Prime Maestra to complete less favourable tasks
    Over the next 50 years, he served as an agent of the government, removing unfavourable elements of the society, as well as occasionally organising the disappearance of certain difficult members of the other tribes. He goes only by the name of 'The Abanndoned', refusing to take another name unless accepted into one of the main castes.

    Transport: Uses an adapted transport craft, fitted with military grade weapons and engines thanks to his government work, as primary housing and transport. Where speed and agility are more important, part of the craft can detach and act as a standalone fighter. Two military speeder bikes are also stored onboard for land transport. His craft are all matte black, powered by the latest generation fusion engines.

    Weapons: Carries a large store a military weapons in his craft, but gives preferance to his plasma crossbow, a weapon powered by his mental abilities and used only for aiming purposes. Also carries dual pistols with him, but rarely uses them.

    Weaknesses: When in combat, he will regularly become single sighted and obsessed with victory, rarely recognising retreat as an option. Also houses a hatred of all others, most specifically the Crainos Ology, the family of his parents, and therefore resists working as a team.
    The name 'Tsaeb' is pronounced 'zabe'. Not 't-sabe'. Not 'sabe'. It's 'zabe'. Period.

    Ok someone tell me if I need to change anything and I will...

    Name: Silest Shada
    Age: 24
    History: Silest grew up like many others from his race; apart from the outside world. Taught everything possible about how to sneak, hide, maim and kill. At the age of ten he was extremely good at what he was taught and in one of the exercises of stealth he even managed to hold his knife to the Master’s neck, whispering but two words,
    “I win.”
    He was awarded with a long hunting knife; similar to the ones that were given to the boys at their manhood rite. But this one wasn’t engraved with his name, but with a title: “Shada” or ‘Shade’. Since then he was known as Silest Shada.

    Appearance: For a member of the Shados Shadann people, Silest is average height. He reaches 4’ 3”; 5’ being the tallest ever recorded. His hair is jet black, with a small band of green running up the side and down towards his back; It comes down past his eyes. He wears all black clothes, and usually has some sort of cloak, whether a normal one or a specially enhanced one that helps him blend into things.

    Weapons: He carries two long hunting knives in sheathes on the sides of his calves. Also he has a personalised sniper rifle strapped to his back. Unlike the rest of his race he condones the use of explosives, preferring to take out someone from a good distance away with a bullet caving-in their skulls. Or, sometimes he feels especially cruel and will stalk his enemies, hiding and then scaring them every now and again by slashing their equipment before melting away into shadow again. Then he slits their throat.

    Attitude: Silest is the type of person in the Shados race that will treat people from other races with caution. Only when he knows as much as he can about them will he sometimes talk with them.

    Transport: (Don’t have a clue what to put here….. I would say that he usually travels by foot. Or is that not possible?)

    Since no one massively objected to me being on the ship ....

    Name: Imoen Espenosa
    Gender: Female
    Race: Hume (basically a human. Can't be bothered to be very inventive >.>)
    Age: 24

    Height: 5'3"
    Appearance: Nut brown skin; black wavy hair; blue/green eyes; small and slender stature. She wears a blue jacket and trousers with a white tshirt, and has a pendant engraved with her name hanging on a black string around her neck. She gives off an optimistic, cheerful air, but is very passionate and serious.

    Background: Imoen grew up with a pilot father and a mechanic mother at a busy spaceport, and inherited their love of flying and airships. She trained as a mechanic but ended up following in her father's footsteps and becoming a pilot. She's well known as one of the best around, and doesn't take any crap from anyone.

    Weapons: She knows her way around most weapons but it most comfortable with a gun or a laser. She carries a thin dagger in her boot in case of emergencies, but in close combat prefers to use her fists or to wack people with a large monkey wrench.

    Transport: Well ... the spaceship >.>
