[edit] Basic Information
[edit] Physiology
A bipedal land creature with a outward appearance similiar to a human of Earth. The few exceptions are the cat-like ears, tail, and larger canines.
Internally the Contronian species have a much lighter bones mass, although much stronger than a human's own bone density and strength. The muscles within the Cotronians are made for great endurance because in the early part of their evolution they would just run down their prey. The eyes can see the human visual spectra and can hear about from 10 Hz unti labout 30 000 Hz.
[edit] Growth Cycle
This can be separted into 7 stages. In Vitro - Infant - Child - Adolescense - Adult - Mature - Old Age. From the start of the zygote to the birth of the infant takes approx. 5 human months. During this time the mother needs alot of food to support the rapid cell growth taking place within the womb.
The infant is relatively weak compared a full adult and must remain under the protection of the mother for a year (All future time refernces will be referred in Earth time unless stated otherwise), until it has learned enough to communicate with the family hierarchy. Then the child begins to learn and gain wisdom which can last all the way up until his last bit of his adults years.
By the time the child has reached the age of Adolescence, around the ages 9 - 14 (male and females) they reach the period where they can sexually reproduce (Although in later society this wasn't highly reccomended until a stable economic status was reached). When the rapid growth of the skeletal system is complete by the age of 20 to 25 years, the adult stage begins as the muscle system starts to fill out the body and other systems are mor eintuned with the final growth of the body.
When the creature reaches Maturity it is at it's peak and will stay this way until it reaches its the ages 80 or higher where the body begins to slow down and collapse.
This is the period of Old Age where many just give their wisdom upon the next generation of youth until their bodies finally give out.
[edit] Diet
Although the creature has just entered the of being an Omnivore it consumes alot of plant life for its new found adaptation. Although the diet of a Cotronian still requires a good portion of meat ( 30%), the ability to consume plants allowed for a more diversified menu allowing for increased survival.
[edit] Cotronia
The mother planet which appears to have the same relative gravity of Earth, although slightly heavier due to higher amounts of heavy metals located in the planet.
Their are approx 4 continents, 2 large one and 2 smaller ones.
These continents are called Asentia (Large), Hakros (Small), Eos(Small), Tsentia (Large). (Asentia and Hakros connect to each other) (Eos and Tsentia are 2 miles aprt at the closest point)
The planet itself boast a temperate enviroment where large tropical forests are found around the equator.
The sun: Miu (The greatest god, God of the Creation. "Mother God")
Two nearby Moons: Mos and Tos (The Blood Brothers of the Gods)
A planet of high temperatures near the sun: Tsu ( Bodyguard of Miu and lover, had 4 sons, The twins Gnosis and Tang and the other twins Mos and Tos)
There are two Gas Giants at a great distance away from Cotronia... approx. the length of 3 full round trips to Mars from Earth. The smaller one orbits the larger one. Larger one: Gnosis (Great God of Wisdom) Smaller one: Tang (God of Craft)
[edit] The History of the Cotronians
[edit] Evolution to Sapience
In the beginning on the plains of Central Eos was a carnivoric predator that moved on two legs. With the great social ability of pack hunting they hunted down many creatures of the plains that enjoyed what theyy could of their herbivoric life.
As the creatures developed their canines grew smaller due to an increase consumption of planets which gave the creature a higher survival rate due to a more stable supply of food. The advent of fire soon allowed many packs to kill harmful bacteria upon their meat supplies and gave a new tactic in their hunting. Soon they developed the ability to work with tools, the creation of the axe and spear soon allowed them to migrate further many eventual finding the Asentia - Eos pass where Asentia first recieved the Cotronian species.
[edit] Ancient History
As the discovery of the Pass was happening, a small pack in southern Eos, settled on the fertile crescent.
With the advent of domesticated plants and soon domesticated animals, the start of civilization occured and The first city appeared. This city with the drive for trade eventually had all of Eos. Although civilization managed to spread to Asentia, the pass was cut off by a civil war with the basis of warfare technology at the time, Bronze.
While Eos plunged itself into a great war, a religious movement was spark by the opening into Asentia
