Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I have to be 18 to have one of these?

There are a number of reasons that individuals are required to be at least 18 prior to owning/creating of the species outlined here. One is that this world's story lines touch on sensitive subjects.

How can I get a custom?

Customs are available from Cometwalker or you can make your own! Cometwalker will occasionally open adopts or custom slots based on demand.

Can there be hybrids?

Yes! But hybrids only exist between members of the same biological class. For example, a Tuormati and a Krigovi can have a hybrid child exhibiting traits from one or both parents. However a Tuormati and a Dravarii cannot have a hybrid child. Hybrid children are infertile 75% of the time.

Can I make hybrids with the deities?

No. The deities cannot produce offspring.

Embodiment/Deity of Beginnings, Life, Creation, Souls

  • Pronunciation: are-zeh-say

  • Lifespan: 140-170

  • Most likely sighting location: Quadrant O32315

Sightings of the deity are few and far in-between as the deity tends to keep to itself.Arzesei sightings are often reported on days heavy with fog, the deity being heavily shrouded. It's speculated that that they're responsible for the fog but this has never been proven one way or another.Those who have heard Arzesei often recall that it emits a sound similar to that of the echos of a whale call.

Dravarii aren't the most social species - not ones to go out of their way to be socialites by default. Many of them prefer to stick to the outskirts of larger cities, some running taverns, small inns, or shops. Those that do engage with others tend to find themselves in the science or similar sectors - allowing them to minimize their contact.Toyhouse

Terminology Appendix

Here you can find a collection of terminology that is used throughout this expanding universe.
This page will be updated as new information is identified.

ABCDHIKLQSTWZ

A

  • Assassin
    Assassins are very territorial. They can identify others within their marked territory and tend to swiftly remove them. Similar to how Bounty Hunters work with law enforcement, assassins work closely with underground organizations.

B

  • Bounty Hunter
    Bounty Hunters work parallel with law enforcement within the universe. They have excess permissions beyond what law enforcement is permitted.

  • Bounty Hunter ID
    Bounty Hunter IDs - or BHIDs - are composed of alphanumeric values. The last character of their ID specifies what a Hunter is licensed to pursue.
    Example: BH-A268D

    See designations:
    • BH = Bounty Hunter
    • L = Live only bounties
    • D = Dead only bounties
    • A = Live or Dead bounties

C

  • Chasm
    Chasm is an underground arms dealer - among other things. They've been prevalent in the arms manufacturing and distribution for almost four centuries.

  • Core
    Core is the currency used by most of the charted sectors. If this were to be converted to USD, the conversion rate would be 100 Core = 1 USD.

D

  • Dravarii
    Dravarii are a bipedal reptilian alien species that originate from Rii Prime.

H

  • Headhunter
    Headhunters work in a similar capacity to bounty hunters and assassins; however, they do not work with law enforcement nor are they as violent as assassins.

I

  • Interspace Port
    An interspace port is a space station that's situated anywhere within a sector. More often than not, they're located just off planet or within an isolated zone (see Prison Zones). Interspace ports will have a large selection of commerce and housing.

  • Interstellar Association of Bounty Hunters - IABH
    The IABH is the only law enforcement recognized association of bounty hunters. They have many offices across the universe. Their offices can typically be found near the planetary capitals.

K

  • Ka'alkion
    Ka'alkion are a canine-like, bipedal, alien specices that originate from Alkio.

  • Krigovi
    Krigovi are bipedal mammalian alien species that originate from Krigovous.

L

  • Law enforcement
    There are three different designations of law enforcement in this universe.
    Off-Planet Officers: These officers can be located anywhere from satellites to large ships to civilian outposts.
    Prison Officers: Prison offers. Fairly self explanatory, they work at a prison.
    Terrestrial Officers: Any officer or individual that works on-planet. This can be anybody from safety patrols to military officers.

  • Lumocli
    Lumocli are a human-like alien species with a singular eye that originate from Xolcli.

  • Lürra
    Lürra are bipedal plantoid species that originate from Lumni Centro.

P

  • Psiju
    Psiju are a large bipedal alien species with shark-like features that originate from Jann Lo.

Q

  • Quadrant
    The over-arching space that covers one planetary system within a sector. There is at least one quadrant per sector. Quadrants are alphanumeric and typically reference the number of planets, central stars, and habitable planets.
    Example: Q15305
    • Sector Quasar
    • 15 total planets
    • 3 central stars
    • 5 hospitable planets

S

  • Sector
    As of most recent charts, there are 24 charted sectors in this universe. All systems are identified by their sector name or starting letter.
    Example: Sector Ostra OR Sector O.

T

  • Toxitax
    Toxitax are a bipedal species with frog-like traits that originate from Gho.

  • Tuormati
    Tuormati are a human-like alien species with four arms that originate from Novla.

W

  • Warp Zone
    Warp Zones are located above or near habited planets & on Interspace Ports. Warp zone coordinates are identified by Sector and Station Number.
    While most zones do not require approval before inbound and outbound warps, there are some that do. Those that require approval include Bounty Collection Zones and Prison Zones. These unique zones also require ID confirmation after warp & before landing.

Z

  • Zeeshan
    Zeeshan are a bipedal insectoid alien that originate from Apii Ze.

  • Zones
    Every Sector is identified by what resides in it. Here are the following sector designations:
    Bounty Collection: A zone where a bounty hunter can turn in a collected bounty.
    Prison: A zone where a prison is built. Prison zones will only have prisons, nothing else.
    Uninhabited/Unknown: These zones either don't have habited planets or haven't been explored.
    Habited: This zone contains anything from large cities to farming to out crops.
