Description
No pre-made report thing for this guy.

This would be an idea I want to tyr out. Same planet as the Harral. Sentient, like the Harral, allowed to progress to that point because there is no competition with the Harral for resources, being an aquatic species. I picture first contact to be similar to the dolphin-human interactions, mutually curious and non-aggressive.

Main reason is, I think it'll be intersting. Two sentients evolving on one planet at the same time.

Un-aided, they'd probably only be able to reach stone-age level technology, or they'd have really slow development. In my model, the Harral choose to befriend them, for the mutual benefit of both species. Early contact at similar developmental stages would give them a higher chance of developing good relations.

Language would be a mix of chemical signals and color patterns, as they have chromatophores similar to cephalopods like octopus and squid, with comparable control. Sentience would mean greater comprehension and control over these patterns.

Yeah, this scenario of two sentients is somewhat unlikely. But that's what makes it interesting.

If I eventually decide I don't want to continue, I'll orchestrate a massive inter-species war and kill the one I like less. Though that probably wont happen.

Any questions?
