Verdigrian

Verdigrians are a sapient humanoid species from the planet Verdigria.

Biology
Verdigrians are green-skinned humanoids, similar to Humans in size and basic anatomy. They have pointed ears and a single antenna on the top of their heads. Their hands are tridactyl, with fingertips shaped like suction cups.

Verdigrians are perhaps most notable for their psychic abilities which manifest only in immature individuals. Female Verdigrian children have telepathic and telekinetic powers. Males, on the other hand, only develop psychic abilities for brief periods while going through puberty, during which their antennae glow and project telepathic images.

Culture and society
Verdigrians celebrate an annual holiday known as Theerlap, a word that means "food storage hut". According to Verdigrian history, thousands of years ago, a young villager named Nimrod accidentally left the theerlap door open, causing all the village's food supply to spoil, except for the briny pulp gourd cake stored in a dark corner of the room. Thanks to the gourd cake, the villagers managed to survive during the six days it took for the next rocketload of food to arrive. To celebrate the survival of their ancestors, traditional-minded Verdigrians still observe the six days of Theerlap by building huts, turning off the lights after dinner and eating dry pulp gourd cake.
