Species

• "Empahsis" is for a single word listing of the species most prominent strength. If we had Psylons, you would put down "Research".
• "Eleazar's Rating" is a simplified form of his personal evaluation found in this thread. It is neither official, nor final, but is offered for what it's worth as a tool to help sort through species descriptions. It goes from "5" = "Highly Developed" to "1" = "Weakly Developed".
• If other users are inclined to create evaluation threads of their own, they may add a column for their own ratings, if desired.
• If you notice a species in the Story forum or in the game, that isn't on this list, please, add it.
