HELLO MY NAME IS CHASE TODAY I REALIZED I NEVER MENTIONED ANY OF MY ALIEN OCS FOR THE SPECIES I WON’T SHUT UP ABOUT SO WITHOUT FURTHER ADO.
Tbh now that I’m doing this I noticed that I don’t really have any Geruginga, Reenait, or Plulea ocs that I’m ready to share publicly.
So this will be about my Isopod and Cardali ocs.
(im working on a google docs version please don’t roast me)
Isopods: an insectoid race, they are known for their engineering capabilities.
Soaren > An architect that kind of has a hard time connecting with other people. Especially people outside of their own race. They spend much of their time either building something, or watching videos on how to build something. They don’t typically engage with people outside of their family unless forced, you know how it is.
Kale > Soarens baby brother! He's just a ball of sunshine, he's recently gone through one of many isopod rite of passages -- When you find and hone your skill, you gift your first project to someone who either means a whole lot to you or helped you hone that skill. He just got into pottery!!! :-) He's gonna be an expert sculptor one day.
Celeste > I have not a lot on her but she does origami and paper crafts like that. Which she kind of hates because it's not "real work" in her own eyes, but she is supported by her friends and family, so it's kind of a self doubt thing el oh el.
Cardali are a peaceful and knowledge seeking race, they are essentially shapeshifting space goo and the closest things to Gods as we might know them.
Diollea, Valias, Inoirae, and Axenas are all gods, they already have their own theology posts so I won’t dwell on them for too long.
Inohredíe >They're a baby! They're one of many Cardali who were born like off world and don't really know whats what about being a Cardali. By Cardali standards they're a baby, but they're like 40-50 human years old (Cardali live a LOOOOng time. longer than you're thinking) They're still learning how to be! They just learned how to shapeshift I love them a lot.
Deas'Illy/Bellator > She is the Divine Right Hand to the Goddess Inoirae. That's just fancy speak for she works for God, and she's specifically in charge of Cardaliths "Invasion Specialists". Basically her job is to train up her branch of the military and help thwart invasions. Like literally just protecting other planets from Empire Like alien species that like to invade and shit. She also finds it difficult to connect with people, but she does her best too. She's kind of envious of her brothers ability to just fucking DO IT without thinking about it ||
Liam > He's Bella brother! He works with the information gathering part of the "military" it's not even consider military ANYWAY. He travels across the universe and just learns about the locals and life there. The "crew" he's part of is basically like.. The first step of "Cardali Intervention" wherei t's like if they run across something fucked up (a planet of people enslaved to another species, planets ravaged by war, etc) they can like reported it back and be like hey uhm... Some fucking SHIT is going on here. And that starts the ball rolling and stuff. He's pretty sweet and kind of always in the mood to make a new friend. You know that type of guy? Who is just always friendly and has some kind input to give? Yeah he's that guy.
Noelaeti > Or better known as “Bigger Star” is a Cardalith Roboticist, pretty straight forward. They build robots and other AI adjacent things. Unlike most (homeworld born) roboticists, Noelaeti has taken to traveling the the unvierse with one of their “younger brothers”. They don’t really engage with people outside of their family, either, and tend to keep mostly to their work while their brother trapezes around the universe making friends.
Ralzeame > the Divine Right Hand to the god Valias, unlike Bella, Amy’s job is right at home. They are responsible for making sure any refugee or other alien denizens of Cardalith get acclimated and accommodated for, they spend much of their time getting to know and working with people from war torn planets or who have outright gotten their homes destroyed. With a crew, of course, because no one can actually do that work alone lmao. They are considered an ambassador in many rights. They don’t do al ot of things outside of work, which is why Valias has ordered they take an extended vacation effective immediately! (Ugh, they just wanna go home)
Thiosellia > Have you ever met a baby that was also a God? Well now you have. They aren’t really like RP-able because they are literally an infant. I just want you guys to know that there is a God Baby and their name is Thiosellia. Thank you so much for coming to my TED talk
~HONORABLE MENTION~
Star > Now I know what you’re thinking. Chase, dude. Star is a human. Correct! But he, along with his two older brothers, were raised on Cardalith. He is a roboticist by hobby, but by trade he does much the same as Liam, and if you guessed that he was Noelaeti’s “younger brother”, you were right! He’s very charming and charismatic. We love star! Also he knows about six alien languages. What. The. Fuck!
He always, always does his best to make sure everyone is having a good time, trying to reassure fans and answering questions they’ve been asked a hundred times before, so the others don’t have to. He knows the lyrics and seems to always be on top of his game with every performance. He’s kind and warm and there for his boys and for us. He deserves more love and appreciation.

Personality:
The Cardali are a peaceful people, they have been around for a very long time and are not partial to the use of force or violence to get what one wants. They believe all living creatures in the universe are of importance and should be treated with respect and care.
Very few Cardali are known to be aggressive, but it's not unheard of, many of which are only so in order to protect something they earnestly care about.
Appearance:
Looking into the eyes of a Cardali is a lot like looking into a night time sky, they are dark and seem almost empty. Upon closer look, one can see the stars themselves sprinkled around like a thousand tiny pupils. They inhabit bodies that look as though they were taken from the cosmos and arranged into living beings, they have skin like the void peppered with stars and galactic swirls (such marks are known as their “birthmarks”)
Cardali possess bioluminescence in their joints, hands, feet, and birthmarks.
Like the eyes and birthmarks, the hair is also a constellation of stars to behold on it's own.
Cardali are a shapeshifting bunch, they are able to take on the form of most any species they've come into physical contact with – The form they take on is exclusively original to them and them alone, no Cardali is capable of taking on the exact appearance of another person. Wherever the galactic swirls or stars are located on their body is where they will have odd marks on whatever form they take, these marks are also highlighted by the color they are in their natural form.
Homeworld:
The planet itself was large with expansive fields that stretched over most of it's two continents, nights were longer than the day time, one Cardali night was often the equivalent of one week on Earth. The sun burnt brilliantly, for what little of the day that it did, the Cardali were not much accustomed to it's brightness, but they appreciated it just like they did the moons and any other star in the solar system.
The nights were cold as they were long, and the days were short spurts of warmth that spread over the land just long enough to give them something to miss when the sun was gone.
Language:
Focal'Raeltian – As they were a peaceful people there was no need to have territorial disputes, Focal'Raeltian was the language that was spoken globally. Dialects did vary from ones location, but there was nothing too severely different that couldn't be deciphered with some good patience.
They are capable of learning new language, and a lot of them are very eager to do so. They are very social creatures, and will go through any means to socialize with new people.
Intelligence and Emotional Capacity:
Cardali are a very quick to learn people, they are typically fast learners and are often caught teaching what they'd just learned to the next person. Knowledge is very important in Cardali society.
As stated before they will go to any lengths to reach out and contact other races. They cherish friendships like they cherish the stars in the sky. They don't usually take on mates, but on the rare occasion that they do the love they share for that significant burns brighter than their sun.
Extra:
It's unknown why the Cardali left their planet, but there are many Cardali scattered throughout much of the known universe, they're really good at blending in. They become passionate about the planets that they migrate too, and begin to act as sort of guardians to the denizens of that planet.
It is speculated that Cardali's have lives linked with stars, when the star linked with one burns out, they die. The stars collected from the deceased then move onto grow into small, toddler like versions of the Cardali, until eventually becoming adults themsleves one day. One death creating many lives, but these theories are neither confirmed nor denied.
Cardali will treat any and all living things as if they were the most important thing in the world. Everything is important, and everything has a purpose.
Siblings to Cardali are hard to pin, as they do not reproduce in the same ways a human does. They refer to their siblings as irmaxina’en, said siblings are known to have mental links with each other. They are able to share memories and feelings, and those with the strongest of bonds are capable of taking over each others physical forms even with miles separating them from each other.
