• Proper Name: Ixvapyan
• Pronounciation: (Ex-va-pi-an)
• Catelog / Common Name: Ixvapyans

The Ixvapyans appear to be a race of aliens whose tissues are capable of eluding most conventional sensor technologies. There are unconfirmed reports that they can move through walls, or perhaps appear unexpectedly. Little is known about the race, aside from the fact that their skin is richly embellished, possibly with tattoos. They are tall, bald and black skinned.

Status

Unknown, but identified as part of the Core World races. Member status remains unknown.

Physical Characteristics

Physical sighting describes the Ixvapyan as a humanoid, black skin tone, bald, no distinguishing marks although displaying tribal-like characteristics. They are, however, technologically savvy and do not appear on sensors, which makes them extremely difficult to track.

Tattoos

The security sensors on DS-17 recorded an image of an Ixvapian, however only a tattoo on his forehead was visible. The image has been attached to this record as it is believed that it may help in explaining certain archaeological mysteries in the future.

• Unconfirmed at this time. Specialists are reviewing the footage arguing whether or not it was a trick of light or an actual Ixvapyan.

The glyphs of the Ixvapyan tattoos are reminiscent of certain as-yet undeciphered writing systems from Earth's and other civilization's past.

Reputation

Ixvapyans are known primarily as warlords. Unlike the Grendallai, however, it is suspected that, wherever the Ixvapyan homeworld is, there is a thriving society. There have been faint hints of a culture behind members of the species.
