Fascinating Creatures of the Galaxy-Adronus Encyclopedia.

LILOLITES:  are a carnivorous, argon-based aerial creature, that live on planets with oxygen in their atmospheres.  The planets they are found on are; Kronos prime, minor, Ultara, Zifon, Inco gamma, Norine, and the third and sixth moons of Borra.  They make nests on mountain tops, the roofs of buildings, and wreckage.  Lilolites have circular bodies, usually bigger then basket balls, a single eye, four to six tentacles at the bottom of their bodies, which is also their head, small mouths and sharp teeth, and a single, curly hair strand on top of their heads, that senses vibrations in the air.  Lilolites like to fly up to spacecraft  in the atmosphere, and use their strong tentacles to pull apart the hull, then they usually take metal parts to build or protect nests.  Though not an aggressive creature, they can hypnotize attackers with their eyes by flashing different colors really fast and they make a giggley noise when attacking.  Their usual diet consists of large bugs, small bugs, birds, rodents, except for quinxa, and eggs.  Lilolites have a special bladder called Flux space organi, which allows them to travel into hyper-space.  The person who first tamed, researched, and documented lilolites was a human professor of biology, Irana Maria Borone.

The Urub Empire.

The Urub Empire is one of the larger nations of the Adronus,  it's planets include: Urub, the capital, Kerroi, Onnar, Evados, Ios, Zermon, Dal, 1, 3, 5, and 6, Lan, Nurven, and Burrus, and a host of species.  The imperial symbol is a cross shape, the vertical part is three red diamond-shapes, the finishing cross piece is two gold prongs, in between the top, bottom and cross piece are silver diamonds, the background is purple.  Urubs have white to silver skin, human-like eyes, brown, blond, black, violet hair, and they are usually slender and tall.  Males are roughly 6' 0" to 6' 4", and females are 6' 0" to 6' 2".  The Empire is advanced in technology, but they purposefully make some stuff look archaic, like hoplite helms and roman-style architecture.  The urubs don't get along with most other nations, especially prothesnos, humans, galxthoricans, and the barbarians.  the Empire is one of the oldest nations in the galaxy, originating on Urub.  Before the Empire, urubs lived in small nomadic tribes, but then Ur-Qall, united many of the tribes together into a massive kingdom.  Ur-Qall married his cousin and sister, as was the custom of chiefs in his tribe, and now is the custom of royalty of the Empire.  Ur- is short-hand for "king" in uruba, the official language of the Urubs.

The Binding of Magic.

Nearly four thousand years ago, the Elder Ones formed an order called Lore Keepers of the Arcanum.  The Lore Keepers traveled around the known world and beyond, it's even said they went to the Far Place, looking for lost secrets and ancient, magical texts.  In those days, magic flowed through the lands like water, uncontrolled, and wild.  The Keepers decided to do the impossible, bind magic to understandable laws, they prayed to their Gods for guidance, and meditated on it for many nights, they finally decided to do it.  They went on top of Mt. Asvederus*, there they drew an enormous sigil in the ground and wrote Magic's true name, the Keepers then cast a long, powerful, mana-sapping, ritual, that bound Magic to their laws.  After the Binding ritual, the gathered mages wrote down the more powerful secrets they had found, the way to do the Binding ritual, the magic laws, and the true name of Magic, but Sealed the back part withe true name in it, in a vast book called the Codex Arcana.  The Lore Keepers of the Arcanum have survived through the centuries, though they have gotten slightly smaller, the Binding Sigil is now watched over by the White Mages.  And the Codex Arcana was taken to a mysterious island called Dragongard.

*Asvederus was a tenth century alvurean priest-king, read more in the Royal Documentation of Alvurean History.

The G'ul Protectorates.

The G'ul Protectorates is a nation based around magic instead of science.  They still use metal swords and bows and arrows, and also have stone castles and cities.  The g'ul use space dragons to get around, space dragons have a tough exo-skeleton, and have a oxygen pocket on their bellies that's where people go, and dragons can teleport, similar to hyper drive.  The Protectorates are ruled over by a council of the different species of the Protectorates, being: elves, goblins, trolls, ogres, pixies, sprites, gnomes, gremlins, and of course, g'ul.  The council rules over the planets: Sallthar, the capital, Sladde, Thurt, Nagini gamma, and Coorgu.  The symbol of the Protectorates is a rune surrounded by a black circle with four black lines going diagonally through the circle, and a purple background.  G'ul have purple skin, bat-like wings, they have hair like humans, black, red, violet, gold or silver eyes, and have pointy noses and ears.  G'ul males are 5' 10" to 6' 4", females are 5' 2" to 5' 6", g'ul are aether-based life-form (look at the Salltharian Table of Periodically Occurring Elements).  The G'ul Protectorates are friendly towards the Incon Planetdoms and the Nugorani Kingdom, because nagorani are a of the same genus as g'ul.  The Protectorates were founded in the early PE (Proto Era) by Kazzar As'do.  G'uls speak salltharish.

The Barbarian Kingdoms.

On the edges of the Adronus Galaxy there are small barbarian kingdoms, ruled over by men or other sentient species.  One of the more powerful of these is the Asduun Kingdom, who's main populous is zionites.  The Asduun Kingdom is the descendant of the Xaccjal Tribe, a mix of zionites and quelnhen, (more information on quelnhens in Adronus Encyclopedia) where one of the barbarian nations that toppled the Zion Empire.  Along with these kingdoms, there are entire alien species, who are hardly sentient, that live on savage planets, and they themselves are monstrous beings, like those in video games.  The barbarian and savage kingdoms are a fairly constant threat to the major nations in the Adronus Galaxy, though the Incon Planetdoms sometimes make peace, and the Tua Republic tries to help the barbarians.

Religion in the Adronus Galaxy.

The zionites have no one, central religion, they have many worship items and worship books  Some of the more prominent religions are Christianity, Judaism and Islam.  These religions are a little different what they used to be.  And the different people of the many religions fight with each other.  The G'ul, a magic-using race, and the rest of the species in the G'ul Protectorates have, like humans, many different views of how the universe was created, like Asd'fa, a religion that believes  that thirteen ethereal beings came from another dimension and spun the universe into existence, like a sewer sewing thread on a loom.  The people of the Urub empire aren't that religious, they are more concerned about there wealth and status in society.  The Galxthorican Technology Confederacy, or GTC, has a central belief that many gods created the universe, this religion is called Dwekarr and has roughly one hundred deities.  The planetdoms of the Incon worship one god, Xillkaz, the god of victory and strength.  They say Xillkaz does have some underling gods.  The Tua Republic has a few beliefs floating around, one of them is close to Christianity, Ic-xu-kjl.  The Xenos of the Xenos Imperium worship demons.  The Hiz'Rall species, aliens from another dimension, have a religion the majority of the race follows, Ajasafi, a belief focused on delving into the mysteries of life and the universe.  The Prothesnos don't have any religions, they're a very material focused people.  And lastly, the xzens of Xzeus delta believe in God, or Adro, and their faith is called Adrokil, which means 'Belief in the High One'.
