Arcturians are a race of benevolent, allegedly real extraterrestrial beings originating from the planet Pitoya in the Arcturus system, located approximately 36.7 light-years from Earth in the constellation Boötes. Regarded as one of the most spiritually and technologically advanced civilizations in the Milky Way, Arcturians are known for their peaceful nature, their role in galactic exploration, and their contributions to interstellar diplomacy. They are believed to be one of the founding members of the Galactic Federation of United Planets, alongside the Lyrans and Andromedans. These beings are concerned for the welfare and future of Earth and have been in orbit since 1947, which happens to be the year of the famous Roswell Incident.
Biology[]
Appearance[]
The physical appearance of Arcturians is superficially similar to that of Greys or Sassani, though they are unrelated. Greys are classified as plant-based life forms, while Sassani are mammalian. Arcturians, by contrast, possess partial amphibian DNA. They are short in stature, measuring approximately 1.2 to 1.4 meters (3.9 to 4.5 feet) in height. They are characterized by large, dark almond-shaped eyes, long arms, and short legs, with four digits on each hand. Their heads are notably large and rounded, often described as watermelon-shaped. Their facial features include barely visible ears and nostrils, along with an exceptionally wide mouth that nearly stretches from ear to ear. Their skin tone ranges from deep blue to brown-blue to dark purple, depending on the subspecies.
Reproduction[]
Arcturians are asexual and lack gender differentiation. Their reproductive process is regarded as highly unusual by most human standards. When an Arcturian reaches an advanced stage of biological aging, an embryo clone begins to form in a pouch in the abdominal area, giving the appearance of a pot belly. Over time, the parent’s consciousness is transferred to the fetus, and the adult eventually dies due to a lack of conscious presence in the original body. The clone, born fully aware and independent, breaks free by consuming and emerging from within the parent’s body.
In some rare cases, particularly when another species' consciousness chooses to incarnate as an Arcturian, twins or triplets may be produced. It is also possible for clones to be artificially grown in bioengineered pods.
Diet[]
Arcturians are primarily insectivorous, feeding on a wide range of arthropods, including insects, arachnids, and centipedes. In addition to animal protein, they also consume fermented vegetables (decomposing plant matter).
Subspecies[]
There are three identified subspecies of Arcturians, each adapted to slightly different roles or environments:
- Dieslentiplex: The most common subspecies and the one most frequently involved with Earth.
- Korendian: The tallest of the three, typically exhibiting pale blue skin with dark spots.
- Devonian: The shortest and rarest subspecies, with characteristic purple skin.
Technology, society, and culture[]
Technology[]
Arcturian technology is widely regarded as among the most advanced in the galaxy. They are capable of growing machines from cells, producing complex devices which grow into metal.
Their starships are preferably spherical in shape, although oval and discoid configurations are also used. Arcturians are frequently cited in extraterrestrial lore as the architects of Earth’s Moon (a structure that has been placed in orbit approximately 12,500 years ago) in collaboration with the Andromedans, now used to stabilize the Earth’s environment following the destruction of the planet Tiamat.

Society and Culture[]
Arcturians are peaceful and wise people. They do not have centralized leadership or hierarchical governance. Instead, decisions are made collectively. Due to their post-scarcity civilization, Arcturians have no use for money or trade in the traditional sense.
Their architecture reflects their affinity for harmony with nature. They live in round dwellings built over water, connected by elevated walkways. Music plays a role in their cultural expression, though it is typically monotone and minimalistic by human standards, although it lacks the complexity of human or Pleiadian music.
As a civilization, Arcturians are known as explorers and cartographers of uncharted space. They have established colonies on multiple worlds throughout the galaxy.
The language of the Arcturians is known as Nxataexeratae, which is verbal-telepathic. A variant of this language, simply known as Korendian, is also used.
Homeworld[]
Arcturians originate from Pitoya, a tropical swamp planet situated within the inner edge of Arcturus's habitable zone. The planet is considered a superhabitable world, offering ideal conditions for complex life.
Pitoya is characterized by high humidity and temperatures ranging from 30 to 50 degrees Celsius (85 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit). Its gravity is lower than Earth's, averaging around 0.63 G. Arcturians require an atmosphere composed of 90% oxygen to breathe comfortably, and may need to wear oxygen masks when visiting other civilizations.
