Senan Species

Culture- The Senans have a somewhat primitive culture, but are extremely mentally advanced. They live a tribal existence, but also have research centers, and spaceships. They don't seem, however to use technology to benefit their personal lives, but merely to benefit science.

Life- A senan has a life span of exactly 10,000 years, while it is possible that they will die before that time by being murdered it is extremely unlikely. A senan lives a life full of studying considering that they are a completely cerebral species. At a young age of 5 years, a senan commits his life to a particular study (e.g. Biology, Medicine, Physics, Chemistry, Genetics) and studies that field almost exclusively for their entire life, although as part of other studies they embrace all aspects of science with a knowledge of at least 10 times a human expert in any scientific field. Senans will also in their life go through at least one evolutionary period.

Evolution- Senans evolve very quickly and also evolve themselves within their own lifetime. A senan will undergo an "evolutionary period" at least once in its life whereby the senan evolves a new ability to aid in its function, this usually happens while facing a difficult problem. Some senans have been known to have five or six evolutionary periods which is somewhat rare.

Mental Abilities- Senans have a wide range of mental abilities, and new ones are constantly discovered. Often, a senan physiologist will find a new mental capability to aid in function, and some senans will have that capability and some will not have yet evolved that ability. The common senan mental abilities are things such as: Mind Reading, Empathy, Mind Control, Mind Sleep, and a technique of "Mind Programming". In addition, some senans have telekinesis, but most senans lost this ability sometime in their history.

Emotion- A common misconception of senans is that they do not posses emotion, this is completely untrue. Senans feel very strongly, and even have more emotions than humans do. One human emotion that senans don't have, is the emotion of guilt, they simply don't have it, on the other hand, senans have an emotion of understanding which humans do not have, it is called shaunan.
