The Qu'utians are an alien species originally native to Qu'ut Prime.
Biology[]
Qu'utians are tall beings, with angular limbs and moist skin that require to be misted repeatedly to keep their amphibious bodies damp. Colorful patches of symbiotic moss grew like fine feathers or thin, bright fur.
History[]
The Qu'utians we’re native to the Qu'ut system. Thirty years before the destruction of Earth at the hands of the Drej, the Qu'utians home world Qu'ut Prime also suffered the same fate. Since it’s destruction and the species disappearance it was assumed by the greater galaxy that the Qu'utians perished.
It turned out not to be the case as Cale Tucker and Tek discovered the survival of the Qu'utians. The Qu'utians have hidden their metropolis in the remnant chunk of what used to be their homeworld. No only that a few survivors live on the surface maintaining the appearance of scavengers and wretches, in order to create a facade of defeat and broken spirit to the Drej, so that they wouldn't be attacked again.
They hold a kinship with humanity as they too suffered the same tragedy. When they were approached to safeguard several Earth relics, the Qu'utians accepted the responsibility promising to keep Earth's treasures safe from looters, until the day came when humanity would unite together and rebuild their civilization on a safe world.
Culture[]
The Qu'utians are a very isolationist species given past tragedies of losing their homeworld and being harassed by the Drej. Members of the species live a covert existence, living in hiding maintaining the impression of a broken culture. The species have did so out of survival to give the illusion that the Qu'utian people are no more. They have succeeded as many species in the galaxy have forgotten them which serves them well.
- Mark of Qu'ut - a sword surrounded by a circle of spikevine. This mark was known as the Qu'utchaa, and symbolised the Qu'utian's motto, "Victory Through Persistance".
