Creature:Mendeléiev

Mendeléiev are a Carnivorous bipedal species of Arthropods that evolved on the planet Lavoissur and extended they're empire in a secluded part of the Universe. They have a whole extension of 500 star systems, but they're cultural and scientific influence is very big in the Universe. They have always concentrated on science and progress, and are a Tier 0 Civilization, they stayed away from most of the Universe for Eons to avoid conflicts with other races, while silently studying reality. They have yet to achieve interdimentional travel, but are now experimentating with objects and lower life forms.

History
Mendeleiév's have a perfect knowledge of the past, as it was the first field study of the species to obtain the sapience. Mendeleiév's started evolving like a regular Carbon-based life form in the vast primordial seas of Lavoissur. Once they arrived on land, they started to evolve more complex eyesight with Compoundeyes, the evolutionary tree split into three species in this stage: Mendeleiév habilis, Mendeleievús and Mendels. When Mendeleiévus habilis achieved sentinence they started to surpress they're carnivorous instincts, limiting themselves to hunting animals and recolecting eggs. By the time they arrived to being a sapient civilization they started gaining an interest in their natural history and started focusing on studying biology. Once they achieved space travel they had already perfected almost every aspect of biology.
