Concealing Spores: Once a day, an Arborix can produce a cloud of spores to allow it to escape from predators. This functions like Obscuring Mist with a Caster Level equal to Character Level. (1 RP)

Blinding Ichor: In extreme circumstances, the Arborix can produce a sticky ichor that can blind an enemy temporarily, allowing them to escape. This substance is produced in gland on the neck just behind the jaw and holds enough for one blast. Once expended, it takes a day to refill. This functions like Mudball with a Caster Level equal to Character Level. (1 RP)

Curative Spores: In addition to the concealing spores, Arborix produce another kind. These spores sooth and treat almost any wound they come in contact with. Unlike the Arborix other abilities, these spores are not limited in use. This functions like Cure Light Wounds with a Caster Level equal to Character Level. (2 RP)

Poisonous: Another defense mechanism the Arborix have evolved is a blood consistency that is toxic to most living beings. If a creature that can be affected by poisons is exposed to Arborix blood, it must make a Fortitude Save to a DC equal to 10 + ½ HD + Arborix Con Modifier or take 1d2 Dex damage. An Arborix can use this offensively, but is tiring to do so. As such, they can only use this ability offensively a number of times per day equal to their Con Modifier (Minimun 1/day) (1 RP)

Physical Description

The Tennak are a lithe humanoid race, though are somewhat smaller than humans. Their skin is often a dark purple color, though some blue and brown shades have been observed in minority. The hair on their body is similarly distributed as humans, though the Tennak tend to have less body hair. The hair on their head is very thick and usually straight or wavy. Most of the Tennak dreadlock or otherwise braid their hair because of how difficult it is for them to maintain and, over the years, many have taken to decorating their hair with various trinkets. The Tennak also wear jewelry on their forehead usually to denote social status but sometimes simply for decoration.

Society: The Tennak are an inherently knowledgeable race. Even after having their home world conquered, most of the race is still more capable of rigging ships and solving complex problems than other races in the galaxy. While this certainly drives their way of life, most preferring logic over intuition, the biggest impact was the loss and liberation of their homeworld. Their government is one step away from anarchy as the race is still in reconstruction and many of the people turn to crime to solve their problems. While crime on their homeworld itself is about average, the Tennak make up an extraordinarily large proportion of the space pirates present in the galaxy. Since the Tennak make up some of the most brilliant engineers and scientists in the galaxy, it's no wonder they have such a bad reputation as a race.

Relations: The Tennak are officially allied with many other intelligent races, but are actually trusted by no one. Their only true enemy is the race responsible for the conquering of their homeworld and many Tennak pirates specifically target the ships of that race. Otherwise, the galaxy's official position on the Tennak is vastly different than its true position.

Alignment and Religion: The Tennak have little use for the squabbles many races have over morality or religion. Religion is something only practiced by the mighty few among the Tennak and they are often ridiculed for any such beliefs. On the same token, the Tennak are not particularly prone to following rules or being disciplined but see the value in the structure of things from time to time. Most Tennak are true neutral.

Adventurers: Tennak mercenaries and pirates are almost as common as their citizens and soldiers. The homeworld of the Tennak is an unforgiving place that forces many Tennak to feel as though there's more to be gained throughout space and on other planets. Few of these Tennak become soldiers because there is little honor in being a Tennak, but many other races respect what they are capable of doing.

The Machinae were not originally a constructed race, they were instead constructed by and of a humanoi race known as the Recuun, a curious race who always pushed the limites of their knowledge but didn't always like the results, as their technology increased tinkerers and surgeons alike began to implant devices into themselves, shunned by even their inquisitive bretheren they migrated away, slowly they congregated together and formed their own society, but the stress of their implants caused a low birth rate, being themselves they decided to make machines to help, As the people slowly died the machines had become smart enough to repair them with new parts, it wasn't long before the society evolved into one that used dead flesh from animals and machines to craft new members of their fledgling race. Now ruled by a technotheocracy they've come a long way from their early days as mere helpers and become the dominate "life"form on their planet. Far enough even for their minds to give birth to their own god, Mechus, god of machines and the forge

[siss-OLES]

With two legs that look like masses of tangled roots and hands that look similar to flower pods when clenched and carnivorous fly traps when opened, these small green plant creatures are a sight to behold if a traveler can only find them. Sisels' backs are covered with a fuzzy mosslike fungus, allowing them to grip onto trees and rocks and not be noticed. They will sometimes cultivate grasses and tiny, leafy plants on their backs to further blend in with their specific surroundings. Their sticky, sappy feet also allow them to cling to almost any surface. Sisels are very curious creatures, always trying to test the limits of what they can achieve with their cunning. They have learned to mimic the languages of other species to a T, and love to confuse larger intelligent species by calling out to them in their native tongues. Their love of trickery can cause them to be hazards to themselves, however, as sisels can accidentally reveal their location in the act. Particularly humorless victims of a sisel's prank will simply end up crushing them. Many sisels develop a healthy respect for their victims after watching another of their kind suffer this unpleasant fate.

Sisels are typically found solitary or in pairs, and only form an emotional bond with one other creature, their own species or otherwise. Exceptions to this rule of thumb are exceedingly rare, and have only been documented in one or two cases. It is unknown why sisels prefer to seclude themselves, though some have speculated that their highly forceful wills and devotion to independence lead sisels to turn on one another if they begin to grate on each other's nerves. Peaceful conversations between these creatures are uttered in quick, low pitched whistles.

Sisels hail from hot, humid, highly forested climates.

Low Light Vision (plant): Sisels can see twice as far as a race with normal vision in conditions of dim light.

Plant's Immunities (plant): I wasn't sure what all of these were called individually, so I'm putting them all here. Plants are immune to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, morale effects, patterns, and phantasms), paralysis, poison, polymorph, sleep effects, and stunning. They do not need to sleep to survive, only sleeping to regain spells.
