Creature:Olorian

Olorians are a race native to the mountainous world Tritin in the Sallec System, a planet whose surface is constantly bombarded by radiation. They are typically miners by trade, preferring to live within the darkness than among the stars. They are usually considered impatient by other races, due to they feel the need the always work, building larger caverns and finding more underground spices and other riches.

Evolution
They evolved in the underground aquatic caves deep within mountains on the planet Tritin. As they evolved to live within the dryer tunnel systems, their eyes became larger, their skin scalier, and their fingers longer and more nimble. Their stocky build proved helpful when it came to exploring their cave systems for insects and fungi, and their life underground protected them from the radioactive surface of the planet.

Eventually, the species formed clans, and small civilizations soon sprouted throughout the underground. With this, they began to prepare to head towards the surface of their world.

History
As they continued to advance beneath the ground, another race had landed upon the surface, using the massive background radiation of the planet to hide the testing of a new super-weapon they were devising. This race was known as the Kronan, and this weapon, a device powerful enough to divide matter apart by destroying the bonds between atoms. It caused no explosions, it merely turned all that came within the radius of it to dust.

Their new suits allowing them to survive on the planets radiated surface, and with their arrival, the Kronan were forced to change their plans. If this species was found by the Natrian Empire via their technologies energy signatures, the Kronan would be found out, and their weapon would be exposed. They were left with what they saw as the only choice, wipe out the Olarians.
