  • Proper Name: Illumini
  • Pronounciation: (Ee-lu-min-aye)
  • Catelog / Common Name: The Illumini

The Illumini are a species of which not much is known. They are a somewhat strange addition to the Federation since they are somewhat of an isolationist kind, however they have the capability of manufacturing a high quality of dilithium crystals which ofter boosts engine efficiency with at least 8 percent.

Status

The Illumini are members in good standing, however much is to be learned about this species because of their isolationist society and government.


Physical Characteristics

The Illumini themselves are curious as well as their transgendered bodies appear to be formed from a purely transparent diamond like material. They are one of the very few humanoid biped species not made from standard biological flesh and blood. Their hairless transparent bodies and lack of detail like colored eyes, lips and flesh are known to have caused several unlucky encounters with species that simply could not understand and reacted in fear, rather then understanding the uniqueness of these peoples.

  • Senses: Very much identical to a Terran, from touch, taste, scent, sight and sound. They possess no enhanced ability with their senses.
  • Resistances: Starfleet scientists often wonder how such a species could have found life, as Federation biologists are puzzled how their hard bodies can actually move. Even more wondered about is their capacity to absorb energy of various kinds and use it to manipulate their bodies, giving them a temporal but impressive capability of slightly changing shape to one of equal mass, or make their bodies lit up by producing a blinding white light like effect from their inside out. This is believed an ancient and natural defense meganism which was developed millions of years ago. The Illumini can't, however, use this gift very often as it takes a huge toll on their bodies and minds, causing immense fatigue and massive drops in body energy. Despite of their isolationist based existence, the Illumini are considered very wise when it concerns knowledge of the galaxy. Several saga suggest they are not naturally indigenous to our galaxy. This has however never been proven and will remain to be just good bedtime stories or interesting tales of mystery.

Physiology & Physiological Requirements

  • Breathing Conditions: There are 'none'. The Illumini are capable of surviving for several weeks without any atmosphere as long as their energy reserves can last. It has been known some Illumini have survived the coldness and vacuum of space for several weeks, replenishing their energy from stars or any other natural or in-natural energy sources.
  • Gravity Conditions: Their tough and hard bodies make them capable of surviving in zero-gravity up to high gravity worlds, limited only by the stress their harder-then-diamond bodies can handle. Their movements will be limited though, depending on the amount of gravity.
  • Growth Period: A member of the Illumini race reached adulthood after 18 years, just like the humans. Their lifespan however is many times more then that of a human. Theory proclaims the Illumini should be able to reach several hundred years of age before their capacity of absorbing energy is reduced to zero percent.

Culture

  • Isolationists

The Illumini prefer to keep a low profile to remain 'unseen'. This mostly has to do with their history with other space-fairing species, who often are afraid by their odd bodily structure and appearance.

  • Government

Their home-planet Crysta Alpha lies deep within Federation space in the regions nearby Gamma Tauri. Invisible for sensors and even for the naked eye most of the times, their world is being considered quite unique due to this natural phenomena. The very few humanoids who actually seen or visited the planet nicknamed it the 'Glass Giant' due to its transparent like attributes. Twice during its planetary cycle circling their two stars, one pulsar and a white dwarf, the planet absorbs and reflects the stars' energetic light which makes it seem to illuminate the various planets in their system.

Technology

It is mostly unknown to what extent their technology lies. Sufficient to say they are a warp-capable species and have a vast knowledge of manufacturing a high quality of dilithium crystals which ofter boosts engine efficiency with at least 8 percent. Due to their bodily structure, the Illumini had very few need of medical knowledge. Thier scientific knowledge of the fabric and traits of the Galaxy however has been named 'impressive' by scientists from all over the galaxy on numerous occasions.

Economy

Like The Federation the Illumini see no need in enriching themselves with currency. They have always worked as a species to better themselves.

Interstellar Location

As stated before, their home-planet Crysta Alpha lies deep within Federation space in the regions nearby Gamma Tauri.
