Tempestia is host to two sentient "races." However it should be noted that these races are very closely integrated so that they are present in every Tempestian culture. The two races, the Pesans and the Empis, both reproduce sexually. Oddly neither Pesans nor Empis are capable of reproducing with one another but instead need to be paired off such that a male Empis mates with a female Pesan or vice versa. This fact will be of interest later. | Tempestia is host to two sentient "races."

Description
Tempestians are short in stature, being at most five feet tall.
Physiology
Tempestia is host to two sentient "races." However it should be noted that these races are very closely integrated so that they are present in every Tempestian culture. The two races, the Pesans and the Empis, both reproduce sexually. Oddly neither Pesans nor Empis are capable of reproducing with one another but instead need to be paired off such that a male Empis mates with a female Pesan or vice versa. This fact will be of interest later.
Gender
Gender for Tempestians should be understood not as a characteristic which splits Tempestians so much as one which splits both races. That is, in order for a male Pesan to mate he must find a female Empis. Similarly a female Empis must find a male Pesan. As a result, the two races are divided into two classifications by gender. A male empis is called an empo, while a female empis is an empa. Similarly a male pesan is a peso and a female pesan is a pesa.
Federation scientists have dubbed this cross-race mating dipolar mating. That is, males and females must be of differing biological "race." The analogous mating practice among most species such as humans is then dubbed unipolar mating.
Unipolar Mating on Tempestia
Ifanan is an island in the northern hemisphere of Tempestia. It is host to a small population of Pesans which are able to mate with one another. Starfleet observers have been unable to find a similar population anywhere else on Tempestia, making the Ifanans the only known unipolar "race" on Tempestia.
Pesans
The Pesans are amphibian-like in that they possess gills and are capable of remaining under water for extended periods of time. Like the Empis however their skin shares the same range of roughly twenty tones from dark to light. They are able to move low to the ground like Terran reptiles but also walk upright.
