Pathfinder (Planet Raptor)

Pathfinders are a race of insectoid-like aliens that appear in the 2007 sci-fi film "Planet Raptor". Only one of the aliens is seen in the film, being the last of its kind before dying of old age.

Appearance
Pathfinders are bipedal, humanoid beings. They are highly insect-like with hardened exoskeletons, singular-clawed feet, and three-fingered hands with a mantis-like head.

Culture
The Pathfinders consider themselves as "pro-creators"; they travel to numerous planets with intentions to study the current races living there and their culture. Upon this, they then adapt their culture into their own in forms of architecture and similar beliefs in areas known to them as "places of rest and recreation".

The exact personalized culture of the Pathfinders, on the other hand, is hardly currently known. Evidence suggest that they have developed a militaria form of race protection, in form of generals and soldiers, though it's unclear if this is adapted from other races or not.

History
During an unspecified time, the Pathfinders landed on an uncharted planet with means of building it as a spot of rest and recreation. While there, they discover the apex predator, the Raptors, and took them in as animals of labor and as special pets. However, the Raptors suddenly turned on them, and started wiping out the population. Only one survivor remained alive long enough to explain this all to a group of visiting humans before collapsing.
