Scyldari

The Scyldari are aquatic mammalians originating from the archipelagos and deep oceans of Scyldaria. Although their early civilizations were mostly confined to the sea, they soon expanded onto what little landmass the planet had to offer.

Their society adapted accordingly, building an advanced industry that exploited the riches of the ocean floor without harming Scyldaria's delicate ecosystem. Scyldari philosophy is one of balance and moderation in all things, a lesson learned from having to nurse their limited resources when they were confined to the bottom of the sea.

Biology and appearance
Having lived mostly in the oceans of Scyldaria the Scyldari are equipped with thick waterproof fur. They have wide filtered ears and webbed feet. They have the ability to both operate as a biped or quadped.

Their lungs have an extremely high capacity and their eyes were well adapted to dark underwater conditions. So much that in dry enviroments they tend to wear goggles to stay comfortable.

Society and culture
The Scyldari's society is built around moderation and enviromentalism, their spiritualism has balance as one of their main points as without it they believe that society will spiral into disaster.

They also have toleration, both of other species and political views. This is expressed through their participation in Galactic society and their democracy.

Non-violence is a focus point for the Scyldari and pacifism forms a cornerstone of political culture.

Scyldari families are usually made up of a single male and around three females. Family housing usually includes dry and wet rooms.
