Tetsamn

The Tetsamn are an ancient race of cyborgs created from survivors of the Sarru civilization. They possess advanced technology implanted within their bodies, which allows them to perform superhuman feats, and enhanced their physical abilities. They are also immune to most forms of disease and injury and can survive in extreme environments. They are also virtually immortal, however, they suffer from amnesia and can only recall memories from several hundred years ago. They are also capable of staying in homeostasis for decades at a time. The Tetsamn are easily recognizable by their blue or gold skin beneath the metallic-chitin armor, and no two Tetsamn are identical. Many of them have technorganic appendages that can interface with the old technology of the Sarru. The Tetsamn's origins are shrouded in mystery and it is unknown who or what created them. The Tetsamn culture is largely unknown, as they are a secretive and reclusive species. However, their advanced technology, immortality and limited numbers suggest that they may have a different perspective on time, life and death than other species. They are known to be solitary beings and prefer to keep to themselves, but they are also known to intervene in the affairs of their sister species when they feel it necessary. The Tetsamn are revered and feared by many cultures. Some worship them as idols and see them as gods, while others view them as powerful interlopers who should be avoided. Their presence in the world is limited, as they only number in the hundreds.

Behaviour

The Tetsamn possess a unique psychology, shaped by their advanced technology and immortality. They display patience in their perspective on life, but also exhibit instances of impulsive behavior. Their memories are imperfect and they have a tendency to forget past experiences, possibly as a coping mechanism for the loss of loved ones over the course of centuries. They possess a heightened awareness of their surroundings and an inability to willingly die, due to their advanced physiology which allows for self-repair. They display reclusiveness and a tendency to be worshipped as idols by some cultures. Their technology also grants them immense strength and agility and a powerful nervous system that enables pain dampening.
