Esarians
(Pictured below)


All Esarians are identical and unidentifiable to everyone not of the race, assuming that the individual is not stricken with some sort of deformity. They are serpentine in appearance, with long, narrow heads and thick jaws. The head is the most angular, boney structure on them, and even it seems a little soft. Followed by the head is a thick and graceful neck, at least the length of two human heads. The shoulders do not curve much at all, but the thoracic cavity seems very thick. They almost look too thin when it comes to their midsection, and do not have much at all to offer in the way of hips, but do posses hind legs. When standing, they are eight feet tall. Their length from the tip of their snout to the end of their tail is fourteen feet. A healthy Esarian is a bright blue color, and the more unnourished they happen to be, the greener they get. All have long and elegant fins, ribbed with barbs. They are both beautiful and intimidating creatures. While they do not seem to have much, if any muscle definition to them, they seem more than equipped to take care of themselves with a combination of sharp fins and teeth.

The Esarians are a race hardly known to the universe, and great lengths have been taken to preserve this fact. They are shapeshifters, able to exude an extreme amount of control over their body shape and chemical balance. An Esarian's true form is very rarely seen outside of their home planet, as secrecy is their highest priority. They are researchers, using their ability to disguise themselves and blend in with their environment. One Esarian is sent to every planet (or nomadic space colony) deemed 'worthy' by the Tzech, whereupon they gather all pertinent information about that place. Upon return, they present the information to their colleagues and it is filed away. If the Esarian's research is considered thorough, they are immediately set to another mission. If their work is considered sub-par, they are commanded to commit suicide (which they do) or tasked to filing/management or specimens. Esarians usually die in line of duty, but theoretically may live as long as they are nourished.

By default, an Esarian is highly astute and reasonable. They are logicians and survivors above all else - their work requires that they deject any semblance of negative emotion in order to provide an unbiased assessment. While satisfaction and pride in one's work is encouraged, true joy and passion are things that are rare (not to mention taboo).

James' Journey
- Born in Esare and spent the first ten years of his life learning the language and various protocols of researching as well as everything he might need in the field (repairs, defense, proper blending techniques).
- Goes on four successful missions (app. 52 years) before he is assigned to Earth.
- Researches Earth thoroughly and finally settles as a human in his tenth year. He made his money as a science fiction writer, rewriting stories he himself had heard or lived in his other missions.
- Marries a human female in his twelfth year and stays for five more.
- Returns to Esare to receive his latest and final mission- research the "god world" close to his previous mission, Earth.
