Race Physical Description                := Fungoid
Government Type                          := (Any)

Biological Description                   := The [%RaceName%] are a fungoid lifeform, they feed on dead materials. A [%RaceName%] digests it's food by crawling on top of it, once on top it releases digestive juices. The liquified food is slowly absorbed, a process that can take days. The [%RaceName%] homeworld is always covered by a thick layer of clouds, almost no light reaches the surface. Creatures on the [%RaceName%] homeworld can not use photosynthesis because of this lack of light, they feed by breaking down chemicals that are constantly deposited on the planet surface by the planet's extremely violent vulcanism.
Society Description                      := The [%RaceName%] have survived evolution on their planet by being extremely poisonous, they did not have to run from anything, and since they feed on dead materials, they did not have to hurry to catch their food either. As a result the [%RaceName%] take everything very slowly. It took them an extreme amount of time to advance into the space age, and it may take just as long for them to take any interest in traveling through wormholes. 
General History Description              := The [%EmpireName%] have only recently launched their first space vehicle, but their population has no interest or fascination for space whatsoever, there is even discussion about cancelling the spaceprogram alltogether. One of the main reasons is that their homeworld is always covered by dense clouds, there are no stars to gaze up to, just bland dark brown clouds, and the Jirwick simply don't care about what lies beyond. It seems very unlikely that they will expand beyond their homesystem anytime soon.
