Yag

A race of powerful, elephantine humanoids, hailing from an emerald green world in a distant constellation.

Physiology
Vaguely humanoid in shape, the Yag stand on their hind legs and have two arms with humanoid hands. They have topaz-colored eyes and leathery gray skin. Their heads have many features in common with Earth elephants, including tusks, large, flapping ears and prehensile trunks. They also have large, feathered wings that allow them to fly.

History
Long ago, before the rise of the human race, a civil war raged on the Yag's homeworld, the normally peaceful giants fought until the rebel fanction was finally captured. Rather than kill the rebels for their crimes, the Yags' ruling body chose instead to send them into exile, forcing the rebels to leave their world in peace and seek new lives elsewhere in the universe. The exiled Yag flew through the stars until they came upon a tiny blue planet they decided to make their new home. Settling deep in the jungles, the Yag lived in peace, choosing to not interfere with the evolution of the planet's native inhabitants. Whether it was a lack of breeding partners or being unable to fully adapt to the alien environment, the Yag colony's population slowly dwindled until only one, the sorceror Yag-Kosha, remained.

Abilities
Flight: The Yag possess large, feathered wings that allow them to defy gravity and fly, even through space.

Self-sustainance: The Yag are capable of surviving in the vaccuum of space, seemingly without sustaining damage from the lack of Oxygen, sub-zero temperature or lack of any food or water. How long they can actually maintain this state is unknown, but considering how far their homeworld seems to be from Earth's visible night sky, it might be considerable.

Psychic: The Yag are master sorcerers, possessed of a natural extrasensory perception that allows them to, upon meeting a person, percieve their entire lineage and even gaze into their futures.
