Creature:Loach

Loaches are an Annelid-like race that own a medium-sized galactic empire consisting of a variety of moons, T0,T1, and primarily T3 planets. The Loach empire is heavily diplomatic-oriented in nature, and policy dictates that their race should strive for peace through the galaxy as opposed to means of conquering. They are also notably mono-gendered.

Biology
Loach are mono-gendered, meaning that they only have one gender. Appearance wise, Loach are often seen as creepy or even freighting by other races, which unfortunately can hinder their goals of achieving peaceful relations. With no arms, the Loach have developed somewhat of a weak psychokinetic power that enables them to lift and push light objects, although this ability is rather useless in combat due to the slow speed to which it operates. Loach typically feed on meat, a particular delicacy is the meat of Blind grass kirsts.

Culture
Loach culture is is very passive, hate is very remote in the lives of Loaches. Their society is very close and everyone is treated as family, and is likely the reason why Loaches strive for galactic peace.

Military
Although they enjoy a peaceful stance, the Loach do employ means of defending themselves in the case of attack. Their peaceful nature has made them a target for warrior or Zealot races. Apart from a few lightly armed vehicles, the Loach primarily depend on space captains who are usually called in for assistant if one of their colonies falls under attack.
