~*~Species!~*~
Species' Name~ Genesi
Home World~ Mesonia
Height at the Shoulder~ 5'
Species' Colors~ Wide range from pale tan to dark green, depending on sub-species

Temperment~ Tend to think they're far better than any other species, as their creators inteded them to be. They're very intelligent but often let their tempers and senses of pride negate that advantage. Their species emphasizes both physical excellence, or for the weaker, technological brilliancy. Their kind has very little room for those who cannot pull their own weight.

Species' Description~ Originally called BioGen-XR00539, they were started as a biological reconstruction of dinosaurs. The scientists took what few shreds of DNA they could find from the skeletons of Velociraptor, Utahraptor, Ttroodon, and Stenonychosaurus, and either wrote their own chains or used bird DNA to fill in the large blanks. Their problems began when the intelligence of the dinosaurs surpassed the intelligence of the scientists, and the dinosaurs more or less killed the humans and rapidly began learning biotechology on their own. Their result was both intelligent and a terrifying predator. Harboring a hatred for humanity, they left the planet and settled on a Earthlike quivalent on the other end of the galaxy.

Genesi vaguely resemble a velocirpator, except have higher foreheads and stand more upright. Although they retain the killing claws on their feet, they have four-fingered hands with opposable thumbs. The fingers are very long and thin and versatile. Their internal physiology has been entirely rearranged for maximum efficiency, plus to negate various physical disadvantages of birds. They have the large, night-seeing eyes of a stenonychosaurus and small flexible ear flaps to help maximize hearing. Another odd addition is skip flaps along the tail, legs, and arms. Normally they're kept pressed tightly to the body where they can rarely been seen, but when extended, they allow the genesi to perform amazing acrobatic techniques.

The various genesi have various colors. The most common, however, are a light tan, grey, dark green, and brown. Various color mixings result when the sub-species interbreed.
