Theta Centaurians

Theta Centaurians are from Theta Centauri 4. They are known throughout the universe as great engineers and mechanics. They evolved to breathe an atmosphere rich in nitrogen and can live between 90-120 Earth years.

Appearance

Humans like to make fun of Theta Centaurians because they look like centaurs. It doesn't help that they come from the centauri constellation. There is a theory, though, which suggests that some Theta Centaurians were stranded on Earth centuries ago, and these gave rise to the myth of the centaurs. There are some differences between Theta Centarians and their mythical counterparts, however. Theta Centaurians have no external ears and instead of hair, they have proto-feathers. Not to mention that there is no clear distinction between the upper half and the lower half. Both are covered in proto-feathers.

Occupations

Theta Centaurians are universally known for their talents in engineering and mechanics. They can be found throughout the universe working on some kind of project. Rarely does a ship not have one aboard. Because of their talent, they are the most advanced in the universe. There is no technology they do not possess. Well, that is until humans arrived on the scene. Humans constantly develop new technologies that baffle the Theta Centaurians. As a result, they always keep tabs on the latest developments in human technology.

Relations

Because of their skills, most races try to keep in good grace of the Theta Centaurians. Only their rivals try to cause trouble. These have caused several wars. As for humans, the Theta Centaurians are particularly fond of them. Humans share the same brilliant creativeness that the Theta Centaurians have. What makes them different is the humans' daringness. Humans do projects that wouldn't even come to the minds of Theta Centaurians because such things would be presumed ridiculous. Because of this, humans always develop unique technologies that Theta Centaurians lack. So, Theta Centaurians always keep tract of the latest developments in Human technology.
