Tamaraneans

Sign in to edit

 Tamaraneans or Tamaranians are a race of golden-skinned humanoids from the planet Tamaran.

History

Tamaraneans are descended from a feline race and worship the goddess X'Hal. The Tamaraneans were originally from the planet Okaara before either migrating or being brought to Tamaran.

The Tamaraneans are a peaceful race, as their society is driven more by emotion than reason. Unfortunately, the Tamaraneans were eventually forced into war when they were threatened by the Citadel. The Tamaraneans defended their planet against the Citadel for more than an Earth century until Komand'r, one of Tamaran's royalty, betrayed her people and revealed crucial military secrets to the Citadel. The Tamaraneans were utterly defeated and nearly driven to extinction. King Myand'r made a reluctant truce with the Citadel in which he was forced to give his daughter, Koriand'r, to Citadel slavers.

Powers and Abilities

Powers

  • Tamaranean Physiology: Tamareans are a race of humanoid aliens with orange skin and emerald eyes with no pupils. They also possess red hair that, while flying, emits a visible glow that makes them appear like they are on fire.
    • Solar/Ultraviolet Metabolization: Tamaraneans can absorb and process stellar radiation, which provides them with incredible strength and vitality.[1]
      • Flight: The absorption of stellar energy also enables Tamaraneans to defy gravity and fly without the need of artificial enhancements.[2]
        • Interstellar Travel: Some of the stronger Tamaraneans are able to traverse the cosmos at light speed so long as they have copious amounts of extra-stellar energy to subside on.[3]
      • Superhuman Durability: Tamaraneans are incredibly robust to all known forms of injury and abrasion. Being able to survive in the cold vacuous expanse of deep space, resist the intense surface heat of stars and traversal within reach of a Black Hole's event horizon with little irritation.[4][5]
      • Superhuman Stamina
      • Superhuman Speed
      • Superhuman Strength: Tamareans possess higher levels of physical strength compared to humans.
      • Tactile Linguistic Assimilation: All Tamaraneans possess the ability to psychophysically learn another species or ethnicity's vocabulary with little more than a simple touch or passing graze. The most effective means of doing so is usually through lip to lip oral contact with another recipient of the desired community.[citation needed]


Potential Powers

Tamaranean's possess a greatly differentiated constitution from the baseline Homo Sapiens though boasting a genetic structure similar in their pliancy and openness to genetic modulation. A basic member of the Tamaran race has greater resiliency and adaptability than that of a typical human specimen, boasting a sub-molecular structure which better harnesses extrasolar metabolic's to better stimulate their biology via the intake of Stellar and Ultraviolet Radiation. Similar too, if at a slower rate than a Kryptonian,[6] an individual from Tamaran properly charged via UV Rays gains a greatly condensed anatomy resulting in greater muscle structure, toughened skin & bone density, self-propelled flight, etc. Beyond that they're physiology also spare a couple of abnormalities further dividing them from most other species. Such as bright golden copper/orange skin tone, feline features, bright green catlike eyes, multiple auxiliary organs such as nine extra stomachs, and a prehensile tongue among other things.[7]

Certain facilities possessed by the ancient members of the Tamaranean race:

  • Advanced Longevity: Prehistoric Tamaraneans were known to live for an extended period of time well over that of many known species of sentient beings. The eldest of their race having been around for nearly 10 billion years while remaining in their physical prime.[9]
  • Claws & Fangs: Pre-Evolved Tamaraneans had more feline than humanoid features, to that effect they possessed razor sharp canines and finger nails which could be used as an offensive measure.[10]
  • Enhanced Senses: They have incredibly sharpened kinesthesia which enables them to track and see beyond the visibility spectrum for most beings.[11]
    • Clairvoyance: A unique trait shown by Tyren'R was the ability to see through the disguise thrown up by another, able to sense that a foreign entity was possessing a rogue guardian.[12]

Abilities granted through Psion and/or other outsider experimental tampering:

  • UV Energy Manipulation: Tameraneans can consciously control the rate of Stellar Radiation intake in order to siphon power from other sources. They can also utilize it to manipulate their assimilated energies into various shapes and forms for practical usage.
    • Starbolt Projection: A couple Tamaraneans are capable of emitting focused solar energy from their hands as concussive energy blasts carrying great destructive force.
      • Stellar Construct Creation: A skill rarely displayed lies in the ability to shape and reform starbolt energy bursts into shielding or force bubbles to carry things around in.[13]
      • Stellar Energy Vision: Certain members of the race can project and emit their stellar energy from their eyes with incredibly destructive force.[14][15][16]
      • Molecular Acceleration: Skilled use of starbolt optic blasts can be used to cause the terrain surrounding a target to violently explode.[17]
    • Stellar Energy Transference: Tamaraneans can also distill and impart their solar energies onto others if need be. Such as how R'yandr had channeled his star based energy force over to Supergirl when she needed a quick recharge while battling the citadel.[18]
      • Heat Touch: Tamareneans can focus their starbolt energy into their hands and skin, being able to hyper-heat the dermal layer of they're body in order to flash melt anything they make contact with.[19]
    • Self-Sustenance: A Tamaranean with enough solar energy charge can go without eating, sleeping or needing to breath in lifeless and inhospitable environments.[20][21][22]
  • Nuclear Pyrokinesis: Many who were experimented upon by Psion science gained the ability to emit flaming contrail whenever they utilize their powers. be it for the purpose of flight, energy blasts or releasing a Starbolt Nova; it often has the appearance of an irradiated fireball.[23]
  • Bio-Fission: Some individuals of Tamaran are capable of casting out their ultraviolet energy as tangible duplicates of themselves. This facet of their powers can be draining though.[25]
  • Telempathy: A couple of Tamaraneans have exhibited the ability to speak too people by connecting to they're psyche. Touching and influencing hearts and minds of others through the power of their minds.[26][27]
    • Telepathy: Komand'r through, use of borrowed power, gained the ability to mentally connect with another sapient mind. Enabling her to speak without using her mouth even in the vast emptiness of outer space.[28]
    • Empathy: K'li, Fury of War had the ability to broadcast her mind numbing ire for bloodshead and madness into the hearts and minds of others while guiding their actions like a puppet master.[29]
  • Power Replication: Tamaraneans can siphon the unique solar/stellar/ultraviolet energy of another Tamaranean to copy and assimilate their Starbolt based powers.[30]
  • Energy Physiology: The god of the Vega System became a creature of pure, unadulterated raw energy capable of godlike feats and abilities. Having all the powers of a modded Tamaranean but greatly magnified several hundred times over.[31]
