Humanoids
Humanoids are a race of humans from the planet Quadrilore and one of the last humans on that planet. Their real name is unknown because the Ilikia have slightly altered their memories and left many things on Quadrilore that could have helped people learn about them.
They are anatomically identical to Humans from Earth, with a few physiological and behavioural differences.

Basic Information
Anatomy
Humanoids are essentially human-like beings with extra features that Earth Humans don't have. On average, they are taller than the average Human with larger ears and pointer noses. They are also bipedal with longer arms and legs.
Genetics and Reproduction
Humanoids go through sexual reproduction to have children, many of which are reborn through other mothers after their death. Women typically stay pregnant for around 10 months but late births rarely hurt the babies.
Ecology and Habitats
Since Humanoids can adapt to environments fairly quickly, they don't have an optimal environment to live in.
Dietary Needs and Habits
Humanoids are omnivores that feed on both meat and plants. However, they are optimised for meat and plants with huge amounts of protein because they use a lot of energy. Different subspecies of Humanoid are also fully carnivores or are still omnivores but rarely eat plants.
They hunt for meat using their powers as their most effective weapons, followed by specialised tools. After killing animals with their tools, Humanoids bring them back to their homes to eat and store, just like humans.
Biological Cycle
Although this depends on a person's individual anatomy, Humanoids mainly have the same biological cycle as Humans. They are born, they grow and they die. However, Humanoids have the ability to "rebirth" through other mothers, although they mainly keep their original features. Some Humanoids also induce their own hibernation, with the process known as suspended animation.
Additional Information
Uses, Products & Exploitation
When Humans exploit Humanoids, they use their powers to enhance themselves, study, and experiment with them. Humanoids also augment their own powers and can exploit other members of their species.
Geographic Origin and Distribution
Most Humanoids could be found in extreme climates on Quadrilore. Many grew up in scorching deserts or sub-zero temperatures. An entire culture of Galileans even managed to survive on Quadrilore's moon.
Perception and Sensory Capabilities
Humanoids have enhanced capabilities and can perceive extra information about their environment. Their genes code for psionic powers, meaning they can manipulate their environment, depending on what powers they have. However, the anatomies of each subspecies mean that their sensory capabilities can differ.
Most Humanoids have enhanced speed, meaning they have faster reaction times and can run faster than humans at their normal speed. Some Humanoids also have the power to "super speed" and their powers fuse together to speed them up while running. Enhanced hearing is also prevalent in all Humanoids, which is where the infamous "twitching ears" phenomena comes from.
Civilization and Culture
Major Language Groups and Dialects
Humanoids have some of the more diverse ethnolinguistic cultures in humankind.
Common Dress Code
Although there isn't a specific dress code, humanoids wear clothes made of cotton, silk and synthetic materials, depending on where they are. They are also known for wearing cloaks over their ordinary clothing. The colours of the cloaks mainly depend on ethnicity.
Interspecies Relations and Assumptions
Humanoids tend to have a negative view of other sapient species, because of the troubles they have gone through. While the Ilikia aren't their own species, they came from another planet and some of them abused humanoids on Quadrilore. This created animosity between the groups for centuries.
On Earth, Humanoids also fostered some animosity for Humans because of the way humans treated them. Humans ostracised them in various ways, adding to their hatred.
