Cullum are huge bipeds, averaging between 1.5 to 1.9 meters tall, and are seemingly made out of stone or metal. Cullum have an unusual metabolism and can manufacture extremely hard compounds, which then form small scales or plates on the outside of the skin, providing durable body armor. In effect, they are encased in living metal or stone. These amiable aliens wear a minimum of clothing, normally limited to only belts or pouches to carry goods. | Cullum are huge bipeds, averaging between 1.5 to 1.9 meters tall, and are seemingly made out of stone or metal.

The Cullum became traders and explorers early in their history, reaching the stars of their neighboring systems about the same time as the [[Species: Senali|Senali]] were reaching theirs. The Cullum people are essentially a loosely grouped band of traders and merchants. They are fanatically interested in haggling and trading with other species. | The Cullum became traders and explorers early in their history, reaching the stars of their neighboring systems about the same time as the [[Species: Senali|Senali]] were reaching theirs.

[[Cullum]] was hit hard by the [[Valcarian Imperial Republic|Valcarian Empire]], for its manufacturing centers were among the first to be commandeered during the latest resurgence of Expansionism. The otherwise docile species tried to fight back, but the endless slaughter which followed convinced them to be pragmatic about the situation. It was not practical to die fighting a superior enemy, the Cullum decided. When the smoke cleared and the dead were buried, they submitted completely to the Empire's will. Fortunately, they ceased resistance while their infrastructure was still intact. | [[Cullum IV]] was hit hard by the [[Valcarian Imperial Republic|Valcarian Empire]], for its manufacturing centers were among the first to be commandeered during the latest resurgence of Expansionism.

Cullum can be encountered throughout the [[Par'tha Expanse|Expanse]], though they are more likely to be seen on technologically advanced worlds or in spaceports or recreation centers. There are Cullumtowns in just about every metropolis in the Par'tha Expanse, and Cullum-owned businesses are not unusual in the [[Freeworlds Region]], even in the face of Imperial anti-alien sentiments. Cullum are in the majority on Calavar, and dominate its political agenda. | Cullum can be encountered throughout the [[Par'tha Expanse|Expanse]], though they are more likely to be seen on technologically advanced worlds or in spaceports or recreation centers.
