There are several known sapient races in the Haliburn Galaxy - some friendly, many not. Here is an overview of the most well-known ones.
Humans[]
The natives of Iriond are rather similar to real-world humans; however, centuries of psychic modification have transformed some of them into something else entirely.
Lowborn[]
Lowborn are the rank-and-file of humanity, the lower rungs of society (comprising most of the population), which have not changed much since the early days of civilization.
Transhumans[]
Ghalkinnar are a race of Semkashan transhumans, one of the main forces behind the Confederacy.
Eblians[]
Eblians are Asheran humanoids notorious for their hardiness and instinctive connection to earth and rock, owing to their underground-dwelling origins.
Gryzzik[]
The result of genetic experiments in Kyrrztli, the Gryzzik are a hybrid race with both insectoid and human DNA, bearing characteristics of both races.
Halachians[]
Halachians are a primitive race native to Rancent's World, that look much like the early stone-age ancestors of humanity, albeit larger and stronger.
Kyrrztli[]
Kyrrztli are able hunters and raiders, bringing their keen senses, stealth and psychic training to bear in their predatory outings, which has turned them into a force to be feared by most other races.
Sen-Ji[]
The sen-ji are a race of intelligent monkeys from the forests of Rancent's World. They are small and agile, leading them to rely on stealth and hit-and-run tactics to fight larger adversaries.
Shaugmar[]
Shaugmar are another race from Asherah. These small humanoids have the study of psionics as a significant part of their culture, being among the foremost experts in the manipulation of sentient minds.
Other Races[]
Several other sentient races exist across the known planets. Here are some examples.
Vukhars[]
Vukhars are a mysterious and powerful race of large tentacled creatures with considerable psychic ability, native to Bhadrapada VI.
Derleths[]
Derleths are a race of small humanoids from Rancent's World distantly related to the vukhars.
Hasturans[]
Hasturans are a race of aquatic humanoids from Bhadrapada VI, also distant relatives of vukhars.
Reshepans[]
Reshepans are a mighty reptilian race with innate psychic powers, native to Reshep II.
