Creator(s):Slakiv

Species Name: Archanïte

Gender Count: (how many genders does your species have?) 3 genders, one being male, the other one female and a last having no gender. That last gender are the most common

Food/Prey/Eating Habits: In the Archanïte hierarchy, the gender that you are born with determine your fate. If you are born without any gender, which is the most probable thing to happen, you are bound to become food for the male and female. So the genderless population is the ‘’food basket’’ , they know their fate and only a few tries to escape from it. The Archanïte males and females dont eat anything else but them, and the average consumption is between 2 and 4 genderless per day. As for the genderless, since they have to be at least 2 years old to be edible, they eat a special plant that contains a lot of hormones, accelerating their natural growth, so a one years old would be the same size as a 5-6 years old human. That plant, the Emonera, grows in huge biofactories.

Breeding/Reproduction: The Archanïte uses the same reproduction method as humans, but they have nearly no link between their child if hes a genderless, since they know that hes gonna get eaten. If its a male or a female though, they will protect it like crazy, especially if its a female. Giving life to a female is nearly seen as a blessing, the mother was good so she gave birth to another female

Intelligence Level:The Archanïte are an really intelligent race, but not that technologiy-wise. Their intelligence comes from the fact that everyone accept their own fate and that any Archanïte supports other member of their civilization. The genderless know that they are needed to keep the gender population alive. The male know that the female are the most important being in the species, since they basicly give birth to the ‘food’. They are approximativly as advanced as humans right now, but they are a fairly young species advancing fast toward technology, due to the nutriment they get from their unusual food

Appearance/Description: The genderless would look like this, but being shorter and looking way younger.Species Creation Contest Sacrificial_engineer_prometheus2
For the male and female, they would look something close to this(the one one the rightSpecies Creation Contest Aliens_by_perzo-d331vnn

Physical Features/Oddities: The male and female are very tall, 7 foots being short for their type

Skills/Abilities:They have no real special abilities, relying on their growing technology to fight other aliens

Sleep Pattern/Activity Pattern:Since they eat very nourishing food, their metabolism takes longer to digest it and gives more energy to their system, allowing them to sleep only for a short time and still be well rested

Religion/Culture: (if intelligent) The Archanïte’s religion is based on life and death. Their population is very used to death and actually lives through it everyday. The whole species is nearly addicted to that religion, that makes them think that when they die they have a chance to reincarnate into something greater( male or female). It is the only religion present in the civilization and everybody is a worshiper of it. This religion is very important since its maintaining the whole integrity of the species, preventing any revolution from the genderless, since they are sure that someday, after a certain number of death, that they will born as a male or even a female

Social Structure: As mentionned above, the genders have a lot of influence about where you are in the hierarchy. The fondation of the hierarchical pyramid are the genderless. They live to be eaten by the male and female. They are more then ten times more then the males and have no other task then wait and est Emonera until they get eaten. The second class is the males. They are the workers, they are the veins of the ‘’, but they enjoy doing all the job since they learned to enjoy being alive, no matter what they do. There are a lot but way less then the genderless. The last and highest class is the female one. They are the less numerous class but also the most important one. Without them, the whole race would disapear very quickly

Tech Level: (if intelligent) They are approximativly as advanced as humans right now except for certain things like spacecraft and biotechnology, but they are a fairly young species advancing fast toward technology, due to the nutriment they get from their unusual food. But they developped a lot in the spaceship area. They actually live on one thats roaming in the space. Thus why they can concentrate on science more then military. This does gives them an advantage humans dont have, they are all united. There’s no civil war or anything like that, again cause of the religion

Predators/Enemies: The Archanïte don’t have a lot of enemies, they just fly around with they’re mothership, avoiding any planets that they come across. Maybe one day they will land on one and expand their empire, but for now they are prettymuch passive

Living Environment: As said above, they live in they’re large mothership that holds the entire population, which is about 10 millions, 7 of them being genderless. Its more a flying city then a spaceship though. Theres building, roads, parks, and giant biofactories where the Emonera grows

Species History: The Archanïte were initially based on a planet where war was the main hobby of everyone. The planet was destroyed and only a few cities were left. A group of female and male decided to lauch their ship that had been secretly built in case of emergency. They altered their DNA to be able to breed another type of Archanïte, the genderless, who would become the main food of the male and female population. They are still roaming in the space, developping technologies and expanding their population. A problem that will soon appear though is the lacking of space to live. Maybe this will be the moment where the Archanïte will land and create an empire

Additional Information/Comments: I know this is kind of a weird species but hey, I wanted to be original. Oh and dont think I prone death, I was just looking for something special.

Congratulations to Slakiv for winning the contest and thank you so much for participating!! You prize will be pretty obvious in a bit. xD

Additionally, we look forward to having your species in a future GtR role-play, as it may even be a currently role-play for all we know at this time. ;D We truly appreciate your contribution!
