Falleens and their Society
January 1st, 2008 by Fenris
The Falleen is a sentient species native to the planet Falleen. These humanoid’s are known mostly for their pheromones, which they are legendary for being irresistable to the opposite sex, other species, and even the same sex. The Falleen are known to live for around 250 years, they are reptilian in nature, making them cold-blooded. The Falleen were also partially aquatic, allowing them to hold their breath for long periods of time, having some believe that their ancestors were completely aquatic. Some believe that the Falleen have some sort of mammal ancestor, since they have breasts and other mammal traits. The species blood wasn’t red, like humans and some other species, instead it was green. The Falleen have small scales all over their body, clawed feet and hands, and prominent facial and spinal ridges, these were often smaller in females.
The Falleens were excellent at hiding their emotions. Their features were sleek, making them one of the most gorgeous species in the galaxy. Also, they Falleens were resistant to some mind control methods, making them a dangerous foe. Another fun fact is that the Falleen had the ability to change skin color from green to red, the purpose is to display moods, but the species mastered how to change it willingly long ago, using it as a covert weapon in war and politics, allowing them to put on great game faces, appearing calm when they really weren’t.
Society of the Falleen
The Falleen society was feudal in nature (Meaning the noble houses ruled over lower classes) Falleen’s upper class and monarchies was filled with arguments and politics, but they settled it before it went to war usually. The Falleen respected discipline and control, mostly self control. They are a very patient race, and shun public displays of emotion, they usually looked down upon the openly passionate ones of their society, seeing them as having a lack of self-control. They hold themselves superior to all other species, since they have enormous discipline and self control. This led most Falleen to believe that their homeworld was the capital for cultural and civilized society. This led them to be isolationist in nature.
Falleen nobles often traveled the galaxy, doing little good since it just made them think of themselves as superior and wish to return home. Even though they feel superior they are die hard followers of the Galactic Empire.
