Furries

Furries
One of the many space faring spieces to inhabit the universe. Furries are a humanoid spieces that possess various animal features, most notable being the fact that they are covered in fur (hence the name 'Furry').

Furries are not born as furries, they come into being at a certain age in their lives, prior to that they are completely human. When time comes for them they transform, taking on the animal features and traits that make them a Furry.

Furries come in many different subraces, pictured rightis a Canine furry, those with dog like features including muzzle, paws, ears, etc. Though other common furry races are:

Feline, Bovine, Equestine, Marsupial and Reptillian (who are normally called Scallies due to them having scales not fur).

Furries often have heightened senses or physical abilities akin to the animal the share family with. Canine furries have heightened hearing and speed, Feline have heightened smell and dexterity, Bovine have heightened endurance and strenght, and so on.

Their heightened abilities over humans and their diverse range of races have made them a dominant spieces in the galaxy, habiting hundreds of worlds, playing major roles in the political, social and economic systems of the universe and their natural skill at maths makes them extremely useful to have around in the scientific sectors too.

However Furries do possess one great weakness, when brought into contact with the substance named 'Unobyiffium' the Furry releases an explosion of juices completely beyond their control. This substance is extremely addictive and the entire Fur Federation has risen from Furries overwhelming need to get it once experiencing it, and their willingness to pay and do anything for it.
