Amphibor

Amphibors, are a very rare species of sentient amphibians whose planet is not known to the Galaxy at large. Resembling nothing so much as big, bluish-white frogs, Amphibors display all those characteristics one normally associates with frogs; the wide mouth, buggy eyes, multi-jointed legs, and webbed digits. Within six months of birth they reach a diameter of approximately thirty-five centimeters, and remain this size throughout their long lives.

A thoroughly charming species, Amphibors who venture out into the galactic community are viewed as irresistibly cute by most species. They bask in the attention, and this is part of the reason why Amphibors are so rare in the Galaxy - they absolutely cannot stand to be in each other's company. After all, if there's one thing that can most effectively cramp an Amphibor's style, it's another Amphibor. Because of this, while one of the the little frog-people is a rare sight, seeing two at once is a virtual impossibility.

Torine

One of a handful of species indigenous to Elrood sector, the Torines of Torina could be regarded as the least memorable by travelers visiting from other regions of space. Quite frankly, these soft-spoken, thoughtful people wouldn't have it any other way.

The Torines have lived peacefully with one another on their planet for hundreds of years, and much of their good nature can be attributed to a most unusual communication device. The soft green skin of a Torine can always be found sporting bluish-black pigmentation patterns, which can change shape before ones eyes. The patterns are mood-reactive, and can provide anyone skilled in their recognition keen insight into the feelings of a Torine. Thanks to this unusual physiology, misunderstandings between Torines virtually never take place, since their feelings are, quite literally, written all over their faces. As a result, Torines are unfailingly honest with one another at all times, and enjoy a peace most other species find enviable, to outright baffling.

The trait does have its upside and downside, however. On the upside, a couple of Torines can practically carry on an unspoken conversation in the company of a being of another species, without that being ever catching on. On the downside, the Torines have become so accustomed to the trustworthiness of others of their species, that they are frequently taken advantage of by other spacegoing beings. For this reason, Torines rarely leave their homeworld.

Torines place great emphasis on beauty, most evident in their architecture and their simple, but elegant clothing. The females are invariably taller than the males, and appear even more willowy when compared to their shorter, stockier mates.
