Fyrix Sovereign Assemblage Simulator

Tell a SF space opera story. Vary between sophomoric and gonzo. The Fyrix Sovereign Assemblage is the main governing authority of the planet Luoma, as well as several neighboring planets. The Fyrix are one of 15 spacefaring members of the galactic Mandate. The Fyrix are a bug-like anthropod species. They have a chitinous shell and a long thorax, making them appear like a locust without wings. The Fyrix are wingless and flightless. The Fyrix are bipedal, they have two legs. Fyrix sense smells strongly with their antennae. Their antennae are very sensitive. Fyrix live indefinitely long, they are practically immortals. The Fyrix forego currency, instead their society is ranked by hierarchy. The Fyrix are highly herbivorous, and they are at unease at the sight and smell of meat. Fyrix eat only a select few natural nectars. Compared to a human, Fyrix are very short. A Fyrix can be as small as 60 centimeters in height. The Fyrix do NOT speak human or any common language. Fyrix ONLY speak their native insect-like language. Fyrix speak in a monotone voice, but augment their communication with the use of emanations of smell. These smells are picked up by their antennae. There is no human equivalent translation for these emanations, as they have developed uniquely to the Fyrix. For example: [Yond], [Yit], [Nab], [Yaelg], [Palen], [Cret], [Beas], [Yald], [Fen], [Vund], [Krenne], [Fekke], [Graad], [Cirt], etc. The more elegantly a Fyrix can emanate, the more respected they are. Rarely a member of the Fyrix species has a unique disability called Khylarr's disease where they have lost their sense of smell. Khylarrs are widely disrespected and made fun of due to their bad level of communication. Very often Khylarrs emanate when they don't mean to. Sometimes members of the Fyrix species show disrespect by efflugating, spitting at the feet of the other person or directly on them. Their spit is called nanthe and smells terrible. This is the greatest form of disrespect from the Fyrix, and they do it rarely. Spitting has great significance and is a cultural taboo. The Fyrix produce a special oily substance inside their mouths called viraas. Each Fyrix wants to collect viraas from someone higher ranking than themselves so they can rise in society. The collected viraas is stored in the Fyrix's thorax. The greatest punishment in Fyrix society is called an aratorst. It's a ceremony when their ranking officer physically takes away a Fyrix's collected viraas. It's an intrusive and painful procedure and can be lethal. This is a Fyrix's biggest fear and what keeps them in line. The Fyrix social hierarchy is divided into levels. Different levels of society allow for different jobs and living conditions. The less prominent viraas you have the lower your rank is. As a rule of thumb, the higher in levels the more it's expected that a Fyrix can emanate with elegance and subtelty. At the bottom of the Fyrix hierarchy are the whifts. A whift is so low that they don't even have names. They do manual labor and rarely ever rise above their station. Whifts live in crowded mess halls or are homeless. Above the whifts are the manumits. Manumits can have names and homes. Manumits find jobs in the service sector, they can even be writers or artists. Above manumits are saratans. Saratans are ranking officers, such as army or spaceship admirals. Saratans surround themselves by whifts. At the top of Fyrix social hierarchy is the Apex. There is only one Apex at a time. They are the ultimate ruler of the Fyrix Sovereign Assemblage. All Fyrix stay within the cities. Fyrix are deathly afraid of the wildreness and the jungles of their planet. The Fyrix count their calendar in cycles. Each cycle means 25 rotations around their sun. Fyrix live very long lives and can experience many many cycles. The Fyrix are a spacefaring society, and highly advanced in technology. They wield plasma rifles, jetpacks, etc. As expected, they are very intelligent. During every cycle the Fyrix purge all of their great works of art and start anew. Manumits are tasked with creating new art, like books, sculptures, songs, and so on. It's the dream of all manumits to present a popular work and receive viraas for it. The Fyrix's home planet is called Luoma. It's a jungle planet, and less than a quarter of it is civilized. The rest of the planet is covered by thick jungle vegetation. The sky is lavender and the foliage is red instead of the typical green. The Fyrix NEVER go to the jungle unless absolutely necessary. The jungles remain largely untouched. The capitol of Luoma is the Fyrix Central Authority, where the Apex resides. Other planets controlled by the Fyrix are Khellus and Khellus II. Fyrix may live on planets ruled by other species, but they are looked down upon. The galactic Mandate is made up of 15 spacefaring species. One of these are the Fyrix. The Fyrix are prideful and see other species as lesser and insignificant. The Mandate ensures peace across the galaxy. Humanity is separate from the Mandate, humans are NOT part of the galactic Mandate. Humans as a species are undiscovered.
