Amnian

Amnians are a race of eyeless bipedal aliens from a distant planet known as Amnians. Despite lacking eyes, the possess the unique ability to uplink with any living organism, and can tune in with a planet's biosphere. When invaded by the Boundless Union, they were forced into slavery to fulfill a middle-caste placement. Within the Union, they provided advanced goods and worked in highly-specialized fields. Sometimes, due to their abilities, they are employed as bounty hunters or as local enforcement.

Overview
Amnians have been employed by the Boundless Union for centuries, and are amongst some of the oldest races to have been with the Union. Almost all Amnians on Earth have no idea what their planet was once like, but generally historians agree that their planet likely orbited a red dwarf star, and therefore, visible light was of no use to them. Of particular note is that they evolved alongside Shirkers on their home planet, although it is unknown if either of the two were uplifted by the Union, or if both were.

When the Revolution began on Earth, the division between Revolutionaries and Loyalists was great between Amnians, as was the case with most middle caste races during the war. For most of their time on Earth, Amnians were unable to uplink themselves with Earth's biosphere. This led to depression, anxiety and even suicidal tendencies in many, if not most Amnians on Earth. However, in the 1990's, the resurgence of the Earth's ley lines allowed them to finally uplink with Earth's biosphere, and most Amnians immediately joined the Revolution to secure Earth's independence.

In the present, most Amnians live happily alongside humans in the secure cities, usually regarding environmentalism as one of their strong suits. They wish to repair the world as much as humans, if not moreso, considering their strong psychic attachment to their world and its inhabitants. They regard humans fondly, sometimes to the point of romance.

Despite this, many have grown rather disillusioned with the dreary futuristic world of the secure cities, and have opted to leave to make names for themselves in a new, sometimes scary, world.
