Arl

Arl, the

Union Member

The Arlboro are an advanced (Tech Level 8 ) society with nineteen  distinct races home to the Arlboro Globular Cluster. These societies were once dominated by the Arl and the Boro who together exercised military dominance over the others in an indirect form of government. The nineteen societies grew together and the dominance of the Arl and the Boro over the others developed into a federation like partnership, even though the political situation evolved and changed it is still called the Arlboro Hegemony.

The Arl are biologically mammals, LDLS consumers and NiOx Breathers - BaPhy 1 -

They have a traditional family oriented society with strong feudal elements.

They are ruled by an Emperor and Empress. Both rule jointly and absolute (until Union Membership )

They are an old society that seems to have risen at least two times after terible wars. Legends suggest they have originated from the M0-Galaxy but fled or left to escape the Y'All Invasion perhaps as eary as the first Y'All  invasion.

They settled in what is know to Earth astronomers as Messier 54 (Globular Cluster ). At first they clashed with the Boro and then united with them, creating the Arboro hegemony.

The Arl are very  industrious and have a very complicated society with 45,000 rules of daily life. Each Arl religiously follows. For example no Arl may eat facing a window  on a Twoday, if it rains. It is forbidden to pick up a coin or something valuable, if a bird sings. But it is fine to shoot the bird before it sings but only if there is a valuable object.

The Arl are also very particular about who they show their faces. They are usually seen only with helmets or masks, but are allowed to remove it after they had sex with their partner for the seventeenth time. Arl can be found in all social roles and all military branches but tend to be attracted to favorite any career flying or driving something.

The average Arl is about 200 cm tall and physically slightly stronger than humans. In general they have better eye sight than humans, but can't hear as well. They are LSLD consumers and can eat all food humans do, but prefer live insects and grubs if available.
