E'lev Operators

The E'lev race
Creator: Redman9994

Philisophy:
After the discovery of the ruins on a precursor world, the E’lev has ever so been fascinated of their technology. They believe that they are their instruments and have always been reactivating their magnificent technology. The E’lev always want to restore their glorious days. By doing this, they often integrate their technology in theirs. They also distribute the technology to peacekeeper races. The E’lev’s general goal is the same as the precursor’s: Restore peace and balance in the galaxy, demolishing all threats to it. They also have high respect with nature, as the precursors did back then.

Peacekeeper

Homeworld:
Tyrodius-5, a planet that orbits a star that is slightly smaller than the sun. This causes the plants to grow huge. Even though the star is small, the E’lev still do not tolerate the sunlight, causing them to build their cities underground or in the trees.

Description:
The E’lev are completely alien to most races however, they have somewhat key similarities to the terrarnium arthropods found on the human capital Earth. They are described as a serphant-like insect. They have 3 pairs of useful limbs; all can be used either as legs or arms. Sometimes, they could climb with their front and back legs while carrying an item in their middle limbs. The average length is 7-8 ft. The E’lev has no central nerve cord (vertebra) in their back, making them extremely flexible. The hands/feet of the E’lev have glands which secrete a sticky substance that was mainly used to climb the colossal trees of Tyrodius-5.Their back is covered with thick armor that helps protect it. Their head is also covered with thick armor. The head has 2 compound eyes that, unlike most eyes, can see back, front, side to side, and up. To avoid confusion, their brain do not see all, instead they can revolve which position they would like to see from. Their antennae sends out an Impulse which bounces on objects, then comes back to the E’lev to determine what the impulse has hit. Their mouths are misleading on what diet they are. The mandibles they have do not chew meat; instead it was made to chew through the bark of the trees on Tyrodius-5. They have horn-like mouth which stabs into the body of prey, then it injects digestive acids into the prey that eat away flesh and tissue, last, the E’lev sucks out all the liquid in the creature. This diet is liquidvore.

Life Cycle:
The E’lev has three stages in their life: Larvae, Nymph, and Adult. The first stage, larvae is when the E’lev has just hatched from its egg. Back then, the Larvae would spend all its time eating bacteria on a leave full of water. Now, it spends its time in a hatchery pool. They have external organs which attract the bacteria, once a lot has collected on it, the larvae brings it up to its mouth to digest the bacteria. After much eating, the larva then grows into a Nymph. Nymphs are beetle-like with 4 legs and a set of wings. They often fly around the E’lev colonies while eating small bugs. After the Nymph stage, it turns into a cocoon and slowly grows into the adult stage.

History:
I could start from there evolutionary path to flesh out things more, but to cut it down to sheet-ratio, I’ll start from the origins of life.

The origins of Society:
To begin with, the E’lev builds their nests by hollowing out the holes in the tall trees. Then, some E’lev started to form generosity and accepted other nests into their holes. Next, they this cluster of nests and families formed what we would call villages. They mastered wood architecture and built the villages both in the trees and outside of trees. Society was formed in the villages including leaders and social classes.

Expansion and Overpopulation:
Villages grew quickly and there weren’t enough resources to go around with. The E’lev started to dig down where it was sheltered from sunlight but also had unlimited capacity. The first operation digging could help support a cluster of houses. You could access the surface via elevator and onto the side of the trees. Not only did the E’lev expand but they also discovered a large amount of minerals and metals. They upgraded their tools and built their houses with an adobe-like substance. The next operation of building and they could build an entire town underground.

Exploration of the Surface:
As the E’lev does not tolerate the sunlight, much of the surface was unexplored. Once a while, the E’lev would stop digging and see what was occurring on the surface, but we then disband quickly to avoid the sunlight.Genius E’lev inventors created an umbrella-like device that blocked the sunlight. Later on, they developed vehicles that not only blocked the sunlight and travel great distances, but insulated cool temperatures with reinforced alloys. Trade and traveling was much faster now with this new invention.

The Trade War
Weapons like blades attached to their limbs and spears were made long before then. They were mainly used for law enforcement or for defending themselves from other animals. There was a nation called Cerisoid which its economy focused on marketing weapons. After a while, the customers learned how to make their own weapons and the shipment of weapons from Cerisoid decreased. Soon, the nation’s economy crashed. A revolution was born and soon followed by a Coup d’état that overthrew the Cerisoid government. The new leader swore to lead the nation to wealth and prosperity by controlling all underground trade routes and mines. The nation invaded neighboring nations and had control of their mines. Other Nations grew worried. Soon, they formed an alliance and attacked the Cerisoid, and burning down their home forest, ending the Trade war.

Management of Minerals and Resources
After the Trade war, the victorious nations formed an Organization called the “Management of Minerals and Resources,” or MMR. This helped prevent the events of a Global Economical crisis. It would raise or lower payment to governments, invest in projects, and as the organization’s name says, manage the usage of resources.

Post- Society Age
Prior to the Industrial age, the E’lev began to stop expanding and making advancements for everyday lives. They started by upgrading their houses to bricks. They added roads that helped accommodate the vehicles that traversed the underground cities. They built simple plumbing and sewer systems that brought water and took away waste. Clothing that is made out of the same fabric that are used today are made. They made advancements in medince. A complete language of the E’lev that is used today is also written.

Industrial age
E’lev society evolved into the industrial age. Electric power was harnessed. Underground rivers and boats were built which provided quicker transportation. The continent was entirely mapped. Early surgery operations were preformed an antibiotics were developed. Structures were made out of alloys and had become more durable and lasted longer. Street lamps and light bulbs are invented. There have also been advancements in military. They used Gun powder and with it made ranged weapons. They also built artillery like cannons and primative grenades.

Birth of Empires
