How to tell Synthetics Apart
When it comes to distinguishing Rodarans and Ofrians, it is entirely dependent if they are constructed with the intention of producing gametes (sperm & eggs). This is outside of whether or not they have genitals, as having gonads doesn't always mean they have viable gametes!
Rodarans, created directly form Almulhara's forge, are synthetic organisms that can range wildly from fully inorganic beings made of metal and circuitry to mostly organic beings with meat-organs and blood.
Since Rodarans are way more capable of augmenting their bodies (new limbs, enhancements a la Cyberpunk, etc), Rodarans who want to have biological children require a carefully programed upgrade that carries synthetically manufactured DNA that contains all of the code needed to replicate their augmentations and general "look". This is called their DNA databank, and it basically "3D prints" DNA and gametes for reproductive purposes.
Each augmentation that a Rodaran gets requires them to get their DNA databank wiped and re-coded, as conflicting code can have some unfortunate side effects for children.
Theories for why Rodarans cannot innately have children ranges from "Almulhara blesses every child born" to "Almulhara wanted us to have freedom to create our own bodies without limit" to "Almulhara is incapable of future proofing anything."
Ofrians, on the other hand, are created with the intent of being able to have offspring. Of course, fertility issues arise like with every other species, but Ofrian gametes are created from cells that contain the Ofrian's inherent DNA, stored in the nucleus of their cells like the rest of fully organic life!
This, unfortunately, means that Ofrians with specific augmentations upon birth are built more through gene splicing. They can elect to get more drastic augmentations later on, knowing they cannot pass down said trait. This is why Ofrians tend to have animal traits like ears, fur, claws, and tails! Catboys real.
