Races: Here are the three races of the galaxy. It should be noted interbreeding isn't possible, and though Kalarians and humans may technically have intercourse, it is impossible to bear a child this way.
Humans: Humans are by far the most common race among the stars, and are the most technologically advanced of the races as well as the most physically strong. Humans are common enough among the galaxy that most recognize them instantly. they tend to be the most violent as well. "War isn't just in their blood, it's in their soul."
Kalarians: Kalarians are often referred to as 'Elves' by a fair amount of humans, but using that term is widely regarded as a racial slur. Apart from the pointed ears and the red skin-tones, they look remarkably like humans. While not as strong as humans, they are a bit quicker and average taller. It should be noted that Kalarians tend to dislike plants and are wholly carniverous, for their home Kalaria has very little in the way of plant life, most of the surface consists of red-colored rock in fact. Kalarians are also the only Psychically active race, and have a greater mastery of the mind than other races. They tend to make good doctors as well, as they seem to have an affinity for 'matters of the flesh.'
The Jud: Known as 'stickmen' by less politically correct humans, the Jud are an odd bunch. they are tall, usually reaching eight feet, and have very thin spindly limbs when compared to a human, and a light body. they tend to resemble Terran reptiles as they have scales that come in similar patterns to many earthly snakes, but the head is the odd part. They have four eyes, as well as a vertically oriented mouth with a row of flat teeth. They don't have ears, though they can hear, and the nostrils are located above the mouth. They are incapable of traditional speech, but often carry technology that allows them to speak to the other races. Despite their terrifying appearance, they are the Gentlest of the three. Physically, they are extremely perceptive and have quick reflexes, making them great pilots and excellent marksmen.
