In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank, as well as a unit of biodiversity. It has proven difficult to find a satisfactory definition.

In the context of the game, a species is a group of individuals that shares the same set of Species Traits. Each species has at most two such Species Traits.

   Select at most 2 species traits from the list of traits (or propose your own)
2. Get Approval
   Post the species on the System and Character Building forum for approval!
