Biology & Society Overview
The Texians are a race of various types of small and large insects,
banded together by a strange Insect Hive Mind known as the
Texian Queen. The Hierarchy of the Texians is similar to an "ant hill",
consisting of Warriors that protect the queen and the empire, the
workers that build things and the Queen that produces more Texians.
The Texians are also separated into strange sorts of "clans" that
protect the Queen and the empire, so their social structure is
pretty much centered around on which clan you are affiliated with.
The Texian Defense Forces have several hundreds of ships, but they
are very old and in constant need of modifications or upgrades.
The Texian Systems are usually dry and full of deserts, the Texians
usually build small cities on the ground, but the major cities are
located underground meaning that most of their industry is located
in there too. Most of the Texians are members of a clan, the clan
usually works independently meaning that the central government
does not know everything about the clans activities, so smuggling
and bribery is common in some areas. The Texians breed the same way
as insects, so several thousands are born every day, all born to
serve the queen. The Texians usually live very long, about 200-270
years is the average age, the Queen is known to live for at least
4000 years, so the leaders in the Hive do not change very
frequently.
The Texians maintain good relations with most of the races and are a member state of the Gigerdi Alliance. The Texian home planets are all situated near the sun, making their worlds usually very dry.
