Sco'volun

Overview
The Sco'volun or 'Enlightened Ones' within their native tongue are a species of sentient mammalian bipeds native to the humid planet of Perseus within the Perseus System. A world whose flora and fauna always seem to have darker coloration due to the atmosphere of Perseus having a natural sort of purple hue. They are renowned and coveted for their natural intelligence which can be compared to normal genius-level intellect. Due to this increase in brain activity and their extended memory alongside their long lifespans, they have always adored technology of any and all sorts to the point of near-fanaticism. Having been their own interstellar empire thousands of years before even the development of the now defunct Coalition. It is said that their love of intelligence and technology is so great that individuals whom fail to meet social norms are ostracized and or just outright exiled for being an embarrassment to their species. The leaders of the Sco'volun are their most intelligent and creative scientists and engineers, a form of government that some have dubbed a 'technocracy'.
