Creature:Cecrop-nopt

These proud and mighty people are young, but they have made many advances in their time. They have good values, powerful weapons, and a very strong moral system. They are very trusting, and also very helpful. The only people they don't like are people like are the Grox. They did give the Grox a chance to ally first, then went to war with them.

Critter
As a critter, the Cecrop-nopt have very good senses, except that of sight. They are blind, but with very, very good hearing, sense of touch, and sense of small. They only made it to space because they could literally feel the point where they couldn't sense any vibrations anymore. They could, in their way, "see" the edge of the world, as they put it. Outside of that there was nothing. Inside of it their was everything. They wanted to see what the edge looked like, and so created machines that could detect light and convert it into smell. They could now "see" their world. They "saw" the stars for the first time that night. and immediately wanted to go to them.

Cecrop-nopt look like earth beetles, namely larger earth beetles. They have wings, but cannot use them. They have long, thick antenna to smell and feel air vibrations. They cannot sense most creature with smell, at least not recognize them, and rely entirely on their sense of touch to "see" other creatures not native to their planet. They have been known to run over other creatures because they cannot "see" them in time.

The Cecrop-nopt are about 13 feet in length. They are about 9 feet in height, and about 7 feet in with. They are walking, thinking tanks, and you do not want to be between them and something they want. They do recognized that they have this size, and are not afraid to use it. They also have large, poisonous stingers on each of their 4 upper limbs, and their lower 6 limbs end in sharp points. When attacked they can easily defend themselves. Their Upper limbs end in claws with 2 lower fingers and 2 upper fingers. When they use their poison stings the sting comes out of a small opening in the center of their claws. That opening is normally covered with a plate of armor to protect others and themselves from being stung.

History
Cecrop-nopt history is rather long and somewhat boring at times, but they like to include everything they know into it.

Day 1: The first Cecrop-nopt to become intellagent is beleived to have called herself Digger, for we dug burrows to live in. We do not know if this is true, as there was no writing back then, but that is the most common way the story goes. We then grew in numbers from just a few in a small community to vast tribal empires that covered most of the planet. We evloved in a pangea periode, meaning that there was only one contadint. There were many islends, but they were small and far apart from one another.

In a few thousand years we were building cities and roads, but we rarely used vehicles, as we could run at about 40 mph far up to 4 days without sleep or rest or even food. All we needed was water, and that was the one thing common all across out planet. When we started using vehicles, they were only to go from one body of land to another. In our written history, the pangea contident broke up and we were forced to use boats farely offten. We learned how to get into space pretty quikly, and very soon we had colinized several other habitable planets in our system.

When we became an intergalactic mpire we swiftly grew in size and strenth, and the first empire we encountered was the Descolda Esparioa. They traded with us and we advanced even faster.
