Description
It's about time that I give a proper introduction for Halona and Ceannai's species- say hello to the Meeks! I already had some old drafts for this alien species which I recently revisited to add new details as well as to collate all the information afterwards. I'll be dividing each topic into their own separate sections so I only made a few brief and general notes on this sketchdump. The list of concepts will be below the main description, and I might not follow the order exactly but it's a good road map for what to expect.

Without further ado, here is the basic draft for their profile:

Species Name: Meeks
Homeworld: Ekkurunna
Diet Type: Carnivore
  The Meeks are amphibious and treacherous aliens with telepathic and telekinetic powers on a rudimentary level. They originate from the Vreshtak sector, and more specifically they are natives to the oceanic planet of Ekkurunna. They tend to keep to themselves and are usually only found in small numbers on other planets throughout the Vreshtak sector as well as wild space, and they are often treated as second-class citizens in other alien societies. As such, meeks have very mixed reputations with other alien species as they often eat visitors or those unfortunate to crash land near their territories, and they steal their technology in the process too. With only a few alien survivors able to report back, they are not widely recognized by the galactic community as a whole, giving them a falsely enigmatic and mythological reputation to some, while serving as a cautionary tale to others.

  Primordial meeks were originally ambush predators from the seas and coasts, and they would use the bio-luminescence of their tail orbs to attract prey as well as mates. They gained their sentience as well as their ability to survive on land due to the machinations of a mysterious higher being during their evolution process- she granted them some of her abilities such as speech via telepathy and telekinesis. Ancient meeks have referred to this being as Zamruu, the goddess of mischief, or refer to her as simply the goddess. Not many records have survived about her interactions with the ancient meeks after a cataclysmic event occurred on the planet.

Zamruu may not have had the best intentions when uplifting the species however, perhaps out of boredom she merely wanted to observe their primal behaviors mixed with their newfound sentience for her own amusement, although not many modern meeks care to speculate on this. Whatever her reasons Zamruu passed away before completing her work, leaving the meeks to live on as an incomplete experiment.

Topic List:

1.Intro/Base Design <-
2. Zamruu: The Goddess of Mischief
3. Society: Clans and Stolen Technology
4. Matriarch/Patriarch Class Meeks
5. Banishment System
6. Mating Rituals
7. Lifespan
8. Life Cycle
9. Mutations, Defects, and Abnormalities
10. Notable Meek Clans:
    - The Flotsam Clan
    - The Zamruu Fanclub Clan
    - The Seaweed Clan
    - The Mechameek Clan
