Ionax

Biology: Edit
The Ionax are robots that stand around 8 feet tall (10 feet if of the Soldier caste) and weigh several hundred pounds. Inside their heads, wires connect to a core made otu of the material Positium. They are divided into three castes, Citizen, Soldier and Official.

The Citizen Ionax is the most basic Ionax and the basis for the other Ionax castes. They are covered in dark gray and ligth gray plates with small yellow lights on their head and chest. Their eyes are three orange bulbs that lie in a vertical line. Their symbol is a horizontal line.

The Soldier caste is the tallest and most armored of the Ionax castes. They stand 2 feet taller than the standard Ionax making them 10 feet tall. Unlike the other two Ionax castes, they posses no light gray plates but rather have dark grayish-blue plates that a much tougher than the usual metal that makes up an Ionax. Their symbol is a V-shape.

The official caste is similar to the Citizen caste but with some distinct differences. They have a few of the dark-grayish blue plates on their body that are usually found on a Soldier Ionax and possess flowing neon blue energy capes produced via their Positium cores. Their symbol is an X-shape.

As they are not organic, they have a potentially infinite lifespan and do not need to breathe meaning they can survive in the vacuum of space or deep underwater (though rust could develop if an Ionax submerged for too long). ==Government Edit== The Ionax have a Monarchic government. The primary city-ship, Alox, and it's elected Official is the ultimate ruler of the Ionax empire but every other city-ship still has their own elected Official, soldiers, economy and relationships with other empires. The economy of Ionax revovles around the destruction of Space Pirates (bounties are often put out on them) and the mining of Positium.

Culture Edit
Ionax are very pragmatic and experimental, with most Ionax businesses revolving around the porduction of weapons or ship parts to supplement the soldiers or assist with the repair of either the city-ship or smaller ships found amongst it's citizens. A common practice in Ionax society called "Voxxel" (translates to Many Repair in English) is when several Ionax gather to repair soldiers who have returned from a battle. Why they do this is unknown as eve nthe Ionax themselves are unable to explain phenomenon. People who visit an Ionax city-ship are often viewed with suspicion as Ionax are incredibly paranoid of Space Pirate attacks. They are also very harsh towards Ionax who leave the empire for whatever reason, trying to kill them on sight.

Technology Edit
Ionax possess incredibly advanced technology, varying from weaponry to ship parts to ship design to several other fields of technology. Most notable is their city-ships, massive spaceships powered by large Positium spheres that serves as the bases for the empire. Each one has a Residental District, Market District, Military District, Official's District and Docking Bay. Among their weaponry, they are producers of Nova Rifles which fire electrically-charged bullets that fire at a rapid speed and pace, Plasma weapons ranging from pistols to rifles to cannons and notably Positium Tesla Rifles which fire electrical charges simialr to a machine gun.
