Is this gonna be very political heavy in roleplay? If so fuck yes!
Probably, with elite involved It'll always be politically heavy.(that's a good thing)

And then there's me with my only trait i'm bringing to the table is Augusts stylish long hair... ;)
That's a vital role right there. We can use it for rope.
I bring the boom.
A few things to clarify about the Dirophyd's appearance and the appearance of their ships:
Dirophyds look a lot like this but with much larger glowing green eyes, almost no hair, and horns that can be at any spot on their scalp. Oh and their skin is more silver and has a metallic sheen.
Kiratiori Fighter/transport looks almost identical to: This with varying color patterns.
Pik Cruiser looks like this
And lastly, the Morol Capital ship looks quite like this but with an Ion Cannon in the center and hangar bays on either side.

I'd love to throw my lot in! Need to catch up on all of the material, but I was thinking of being a dirophyd programmer.
Glad to hear that there might be a fellow Dirophyd! If you have any questions about anything involving them don't hesitate to PM me. Kinda curious as to what you mean by a programmer as that's a pretty broad term.

Gentlebeast I reaaally hate to dissuade you from something you want to do but the hacking and piloting specialisations were something I picked for my character because no one else was doing it. Do you think you might be able to pick another specialisation? I'm happy to help with character development if you like and I approve of your race choice. Awesome new race. Again my apologies for my request.
Being a programmer doesn't really make one a hacker, could be a drone operator or something of the sort. Also, it wouldn't hurt to have multiple hackers anyway to work together on more complicated locks and such. (we could also probably use a combat systems officer on ships anyway. Bit could do it, but it always helps to have someone more proficient at it)

P.P.S. I thing Balmungs charater and mine may get along nicely seeing as neither of them is combat focussed. This is doubly true if he has any skill at ship repair as The Hummingbird is Ashley's baby. DON'T YOU DARE HURT HER! There there. tis ok Hummingbird.
Bit can't really work with the software on a ship, but the mechanical aspects are child's play. Oh and he can upgrade the weapons with explosives. I'm sure our chars will get along nicely.
Character Sheet:
(I created the Dirophyds, feel free to ask me anything pertaining to them.)
Name: Captain Bitheroi Notiri (his squadmates have always called him ‘Bit’)
Species: Dirophyds
Height:He is about 5’9.
Age: 60
Gender:Male
Appearance:Right ‘horn’ missing with a large scar from its former location to the back of his head. His eyes are a darker shade of green than most Dirophyds, instead of the standard lime green like color, his are closer to sage.
Equipment:His Armor looks like similar to this http://christianburns.files.wordpress.com/2007/02/07da_1.JPG it boasts a light thruster pack for maneevering in a zero G environment and a light energy shield. It also has quite a bit of heavily armoured storage space for multiple weapons and explosives. He also wields two Meeko machine pistols for general anti-personnel and a modified grenade launcher for just about everything else. He always has multiple explosives on hand.
Favored explosives: Along with standard anti-personnel grenades Bit also carries a few other explosive devices
Magnet bomb, a sticky explosive with a remotely activated high powered magnet within, the bonding agent is so strong that the explosive is almost impossible to remove without the proper equipment. The magnet is strong enough to pull the target into the closest metal object and helps to guide a second explosive to its intended target.
Self propelled cluster bomb, a small pulse engine propels this explosive in whichever direction it is set. A magnet bomb can be used to create what is essentially a homing grenade. After the initial explosion the bomb then splits into seven other smaller bombs that detonate upon contact.
Bomb drill, one of the simplest contraptions that the Dirophyds use for mining...Bit uses them for breaching charges. The powerful laser drill can make quick work of almost any standard alloy door, while the shaped charge contained within allows for clean disposal of anything on the other side of that door. Once activated, the drill will pull the bomb for whatever time the user sets, after that time elapses the charge will immediately explode.
Skills/Abilities: Very proficient with explosives and fairly knowledgable about advanced mechanisms. In combat he is able to keep a level head and improvise if needed. He isn’t the best shot, but his eye implant along with his automatic weapons and explosives allows him to be an asset on the battlefield. His prosthetic arm and fingers do not do much to augment his abilities aside from a minor increase in the distance he can throw grenades.
Background: Bitheroi Notiri was born to a military family and learned quickly that he had much to live up to as his father was the General of the Peacekeepers, something he resented as it was all anyone spoke of around him. The only time he truly felt at peace was when he was among strangers. A luxury that he was rarely afforded in the area. Many of the local merchants attempted to trick and manipulate him in order to get to his father.
Many believed that if they could gain the influence of the General of the Peacekeepers they could use the police force to further their ambitions. Bit quickly learned to distrust these merchants and turn down their bribes and attempts of being kind to him. This quickly changed the attempts to diplomatically manipulate the general to attempts to kidnap and use Bit for ransom. A plan that only succeeded once. When Bitheroi was about twelve years of age, one of the head merchants had him kidnapped by mercenaries, they beat him and tied him up in their armory...a true mistake when he managed to break free of his binds. The mercs thought that the child couldn’t possibly be a true threat until he managed to rig up a breaching charge and escape the small ship’s armory, after sneaking his way to an escape pod he managed to get back home. Of course he left an improvised explosive to destroy the mercenaries’ ship.
This inspired him to begin making explosives as a hobby. His parents were so proud that they immediately signed him up for a training camp for the Dirophyd military. His father truly thought that Bit would one day join the Peacekeepers and rise through the ranks. When Bitheroi became of age to join the military however, he quickly defied his father’s expectations chose the Special Forces in order to get away from his family ties and to leave the Dirophyd controlled sector for good.
His life in the Special Operations Corps was a rough one. Over the years, he has survived multiple traps, betrayals, and botched missions...and the occasional botched explosive. Unfortunately, he hasn’t gotten out unscathed..he has lost an arm, an eye, and a few fingers. Even though he has gotten prosthetic replacements with a few enhancements, he still resents the implants given to him. He has been forced through multiple teams due to deaths and not getting along with others, at this point he doesn’t really care for getting to know his teammates anymore.
