Plexxans

Overview:

Plexxan humans are almost identical to Terran humans, but they could not have a more different culture and society. They are strong individualists and frequently produce exceptional heroes. Perhaps their main weakness is their sense of honour and fair play, which is often played upon by unscrupulous enemies.

Origins:

The Plexxans are humans, and it came as a great shock to both sides when they first met the Terrans! In all likelihood, both of these races are equally old. They evolved in completely different star sytems, yet are so genetically similar, that they are able to interbreed!

Plexxan and Terran scientists generally agree that this is no accident. Most suspect the involvement of the Morchedi, and point to it as proof of how truly ancient the Morchedi were. Whatever the cause, it has made the Plexxans and Terrans allies, although neither side truly trusts the other.

The root of the distrust comes from the cultural clashes. Plexxans society is based on honour and individuality. It has virtually no crime, and a high level of individual achievement. However, they are typically disorganised because they have such strong individualism.

Current Status:

President Attal is the current President of the Plexxan Federation. The Plexxans have enjoyed considerable success, being highly regarded by most other species. They are the rising star of the galaxy, sending traders, warriors and diplomats to the nine vectors.

But are they reaching too far, too fast? Only time will tell.

Strengths and Weaknesses

The Plexxans produce strong leaders and pilots, but lack the organisation to be great scientists or technicians.
