Gcit (sit): a slug-like species. Their leader is Gnaroi.
Glorcxans (glor-shin): a large-eared species that resemble a bat. They are furry in nature and come in a myriad of colors, most often purple. They have eyes that are barely functional, as they mostly rely on their sense of hearing for navigation. They work well in groups.
Im'ill (ihm-eel): a four-armed armored species. They are humanoid in shape and have translucent skin that flows over their bones and muscles like water.
Montet (moh-nay): a plant-loving species that hail from the planet Kuy. They are gardeners by heart. Herbivorous, they are often seen covered in vines and leaves. No one has seen what they truly look like.

Straytex: a short-statured felinoid species.
Torra (tor-uh): a robotic race created by the Anlam. Some often question its true sentience, as they are not living beings. They are often box-shaped but have the freedom to choose what form they like. They are a hivemind.
Tretrian: An eight-limbed, bipedal species that is able to manipulate their limbs to move in almost any direction imaginable. Their faces are blank slates, hosting only dark, bulbous eyes. They have sparse hair cover on the top of their head, often only a few threads drooping in front of their face. They have no mouth and communicate solely with hand gestures and sign language.

They are often speckled with flowers and leaves. Their feet are woody stumps that are able to climb any sort of terrain. Their leader is Birum.
