==Name==
::''"Such strange beings, so fragile, so limited, so primitive, no wonder they are beneath notice most of the time."''
* '''Proper Name''': Illumini
:::an Illumini observation in regards to most intelligent species.
* '''Pronunciation''': Ee-lu-mi-naye
:The Illumini are an unusual species that appears humanoid in order to diffuse the fear that their natural appearance causes. With a physical form that has no biological material of any kind and a lifespan that measures in the thousands of years their difficulty in understanding and interacting with most short lived biological intelligent life forms in not unexpected.

The Illumini are a species about which not much is known. They are a truly unique addition to the [[ma:Federation|Federation]]. Especially since they are an isolationist species. Their home-planet [[Crysta Alpha]] lies deep within Federation space in the region near [[ma:Gamma_Tauri|Gamma Tauri]]. Invisible to most [[ma:Sensors|sensors]] and even to the naked eye most of the time, their world is considered quite astounding due to this natural phenomena.

The very few [[Humanoid|humanoids]] who have actually seen or visited the planet nicknamed it the 'Glass Giant' due to its transparent like attributes. A very strange phenomena occures twice during its planetary cycle while circling their two stars, one a [[ma:Pulsar|pulsar]] and the other a [[ma:White_dwarf|white dwarf]]. It is at this time that the planet absorbs and reflects the stars light which makes it seem to illuminate from within. It is only at this time that the planet is easily visable to sensors or the naked eye.

Despite their history as isolationist's, the Illumini are considered very wise when it concerns knowledge of the [[ma:Galaxy|galaxy]]. Several thinly veiled and vague references in obscure saga stories suggest that they are not naturally indigenous to our galaxy. However this has never been proven. For now they will remain just good bedtime stories or interesting tales of mystery.

* '''Breathing Conditions''': There are 'none'. The [[Illumini]] are capable of surviving without any [[ma:Atmosphere|atmosphere]] as long as their energy reserves can last. It has been known for some Illumini to have survived the mind numbing cold and vacuum of [[ma:Space|space]] for several months, replenishing their energy from [[ma:Stars|stars]]. They can also absorbe some other natural and in some cases artificial energy sources as well.

* '''Gravity Conditions''': Their tough and hard bodies make them capable of surviving in [[ma:Zero_gravity|zero-gravity]] or on high gravity worlds with no noticable affect. This seems to only be 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''': The Illumini are born deep within their planet's cold crust in, what is called by them, the lagoon of life. Unlike most species, the Illumini do not have parents as we know them, no 'mother' or 'father'. They are created by a chemical and natural process within the lagoons and are brought up by groups of people simply known as caretakers. A member of the Illumini race will reach adulthood after 18 years. Their lifespan however is many times more than that of a human. Theory proclaims the Illumini should be able to reach several thousand years of age before their capacity to absorbe energy is reduced to zero percent.

They are created by a chemical and natural process within the lagoons and are brought up by groups of people simply known as caretakers. A member of the Illumini race will reach adulthood after approximately 50 years of development within this lagoon. Their lifespan however is many times more than that of a human. Theory proclaims the Illumini should be able to reach several thousand years of age before their capacity to absorb energy is reduced to zero percent.


* '''Senses''': Very much identical to a [[Terran]], from touch, taste, scent, sight and sound. They possess no enhanced ability with their senses.
