Tallisites

The Tallisites (T. sapiens) are a humanoid species native to the planet Tallis, located in the Sundom of Eris. They are genetically similar to humans (H. sapiens), with some minor differences that allow them to thrive in the low UV radiation environment of their homeworld.

Tallisites are known for their unique appearance, with pale skin and deep brown hair. They also tend to be taller and thinner than humans, with a more slender build. Despite these differences, Tallisites and humans are theoretically able to interbreed and produce healthy offspring.

Research suggests that similarities between Humans and Tallisites are due to a common ancestor. Astrometry and carbon dating of samples from both worlds suggests the same precursor comet - PC-3 - seeding life on both Tallis and Earth. This is known as the Tallis-Terra link. Not only are their physiology very much alike, but it seems that almost all species originating from the PC-3 evotrail have had an analogue in an Earth species.

Tallisites are also known for their highly advanced technological capabilities. They were the first species to develop hyperlight travel, and their innovations in the field have allowed them to become a leading player in the galactic community.

In addition to their technological and cultural achievements, the Tallisites are known for their political system, which is a direct democracy founded on blank-slate law. This system allows any Tallisite citizen to propose changes to the law and hold referendums to determine the will of the people.
