Geneera
The Home of the Genides after they were banished from Sabiador in 2258 (Exon 113).
The planet was originally named Delta Pavonis II.
The Genides
To be able to better resist the unusual and partially hostile environments in space and on the colony planets, the colonists started experimenting with physical and psychic manipulations on select test subjects a long time ago. The first positive experiments probably took place shortly after the second diaspora started. While some preferred manipulations at the cybernetic level, in form of implants, technical extremities and artificial organs, others did not trust body-bound technology and completely focused on the many possibilities of biogenesis.
The first of the two new human species was created on Sabiador, the apparently aesthetic Genides. They require barely any sleep, heal wounds quickly and can communicate telepathically. In addition, most of them are resistant to disease and epidemics, think faster, detect ultra- and infra-sounds and have a long life expectancy.
After the first species wars and the expulsion of the Genides from Sabiador, six million refugees found a new home on the planet Delta Pavonis II. After being renamed to Geneera, the planet rapidly developed into a respectable economic power.
New generation Genides are exceptionally slim, tall and cultivate very aesthetic bodies. Their heads and bodies are completely hairless (aside from the eyebrows, which are considered a beauty attribute), as body hair is considered a relic of evolution. They wear synthetic or half-organic headgear instead, in form of imaginative wigs, hoods, hats, cloth, etc. as well as organic or half-organic, partially transparent and often also bioluminescent suits.
The Genides' feudal society is based on a pre modern, aristocratically dominated culture, which has taken a military orientation due to the constant threat by the Jadd Baran and the Tyi.
