Families of Mlen (FoM)

About the Separate Families

The Families of Mlen is a group of ten known sentient races that broke off from an original bloodline that was created by their "god" Mlen the Born. The races are split into two categories for their appearance which are Near Mlenites and Far Mlenites.

• The ten known species include:
• Near -
  • Meelintrites -

The original creations of Mlen (or at least many think is.) They are believed to be Zealots, but they do not force their religion on any aliens. Every since the formation of the FoM, the only Meelintrite that was seen since the attack on Meelintier was the Ambassador, Vahkaln. There would be a few here and there, but they are either in hiding or close to extinction.

• • Vleshkals -

Physically, the Vleshkals are identical to Meelintrites. What separates the two is the Vleshkals skin color. They would make up the majority of the foot soldier force of the FoM. Their culture is knight based. The king, Baellus kept his people from leaving Vleshail for his previous fear of the outside space. He knew of the Meelintrites and Velvers and then found the Kovomo on one of Vleshails moons.

• • Velvers -

The Velvers broke off from the Meelintrites to establish their own culture based on a scientist culture. With that, their skin became a bright yellow from their constant use of chemicals and also hair that they managed to grow from extensive research. They focus on obtaining new forms of energy and resources for the FoM.

• • Mouniimii -

Using a result from human cultures, the Mouniimii is best represented as Maui Warriors, with names also similar to such. They were found still in their tribal stage and were brought up to date by the Velvers. They make up the special forces and the powerhouse foot soldiers best used in situations of breaking through heavy defenses. Their culture is focused on war and believe that in killing their enemies they will earn greater strength. They are taller and more built than Meelintrites.

• • Kovomo -

The Kovomo are a tribal race that were found upon Kovo, one of Vleshails moons. They soon after started living on Vleshail as workers. Visually, they are best described as wooly Meelintrites. They are stronger like the Mouniimii and would fall under the same forces as the Mouniimii. What else the Kovomo would prove useful in missions in frozen climates.

• Far -
  • Lukun -

The Lukun would work alongside the Velvers in acquiring resources, but the Lukun would end up doing the dirty work. Lukun are born into a life of miners. Their skin is pale for their time in the tunnels they live in. Many colonies have been formed by other races on planets that already have the Lukun.

• • Kiciels -

Kiciels are not a formidable force within the battlefield, but they are within the field of economics. These little sentients love money and focus on making the deal rather than winning a war. It is impressive how many deals they can make and how many rip-offs they can do.

• • Opodo -

The Opodo make the most impressive scouts with their incredible speed and agility. Their culture is unlike anything anyone has seen. Their elective process is a competition of speed. To put it simply, whomever is the fastest runner is the one who rules the people. The leader is then entitled "The Run."

• • Dessef -

The Dessef are gentle giants who know a way around a diplomatic situation. Many name the Dessef the true heroes of the FoM. Those able to avoid war know wars troubles.

• • Ykkyllyvy -

The strangest of the Mlenites. They have some foot soldiers, but they focus mainly on using altered beasts as weapons. They believe that the beast is stronger than the machine. No computation can defeat instinct. With their mind control techniques, they can get whatever information out of anyone.

Thoughts on War

The FoM is newly formed and always takes it into account when it comes to wartime. They will not involve themselves in any war. Even though they wish to help any and all races, they must focus keeping their own blood safe. With the invasion of Meelintier, the FoM wish to conceal themselves, which at times could lead to conflict more than they think. They choose to only work on self-improvement and defending themselves before including themselves in any war.

Outer-Rim Peace Agreement

It was under the Outer-Rim Peace Agreement(ORPA) that the families made their alliance on the planet Cenoyal. From the moment the FoM formed, they became allied immediately with the ORPA group. Before the formation of the FoM, ORPA had a strong alliance as it was with the Meelintrite race. With that in mind, ORPA responded hastily to the attack on Meelintier that would last even past the formation of the FoM. After the formation, the FoM honored their alliance with the FoM, but they would not have them fight the war for them. It was said by Ambassador Vahkaln during the first meeting, "I shall speak a direct order from Mlenithan, King of Priests, reborn of Mlen the Born. He says, and I quote 'I thank you, people under the Outer-Rim Peace Agreement. You will be remembered for giving my people hope that there are peaceful beings beyond the atmosphere. I must ask for you to honor us by leaving Meelintier after the arrival of the people of the Families of Mlen. This war is on our blood, not the blood of our friends. If we fall into extinction, then let it be that we fought strong for our own blood. This is no war of yours to fight. This is ours now with our family together once again.' End quote."
