Synopsis
The Slomon K'Hara are a sapient, blue skinned, pleisiosaurine extraterrestrial race created as a genetic experiment by the Daam K'Vosh Empire. Within Sirius, they are known to all save themselves as the Nomads.
The Slomon K'Hara date their civilization back at least thousands of years, and developed independently after their masters disappeared. While it is possible that other parts of the Daam K'Vosh Empire contain members of the Slomon K'Hara species, their current and only known habitat is that of the Sirius Sector.
They possess little inherent genetic code, thus allowing easier symbiotic fusion with races such as humans without the problems of a differing genetic pattern. This is commonly referred to as possession or infestation, as the Slomon K'Hara controls the body of the host, typically with little mental or physical independence on the part of the host.
Physiology
Although many attempts to decypher the K'Hara's biological puzzle by Liberty and Order scientists have been made. Little information has been recovered on their genetic, physiological and organic structures. Numerous rough and quickened analyses have uncovered an extensive nervous system with nervous electrical impulses measuring at ten times the electrical charge of a human's. Further investigation has shown the nervous system to be the more dominant system over their muscle tissue and sophisticated respiratory system, which is comprised of a gas exchange surface capable of oxidising various oxide compounds.
While the mainstay of nomad physical structures observed have been so-called "ships" and human-nomad hybrids, there is a little photographic and video evidence that they can take other forms as well. This evidence has led many Scientists to pour funding into researching the nomad capabilities of "shape-shifting." The majority of scientists involved in nomad research, however are skeptical of that evidence, often claiming that the evidence is faked.
A method of autopsy is yet to be devised by scientists and researchers Sirius-wide, as the K'Hara's protective reaction to certain invasive surgery methods causes their matter to decompose within minutes. Order and Libertonian officials are still pumping funding into K'Hara research, and many questions that linger over their anatomy are still waiting to be answered.
Culture
Little is known about the Slomon K'Hara, except that they inhabit organic ships, ancient stations and cities. Latest research studies also suggest that their society is highly collectively oriented, with larger, more sophisticated subspecies controlling the lower ones. While it is theoretically possible for a Slomon K'Hara to lose it's connection to the collective, this is a very rare occurrence.
Technology
The Slomon K'Hara possess incredibly advanced technology, including at least one example of utilization of a Dyson Sphere, a device to gather and use the power output of a star, and the ability to destroy stars using a massive ship with unknown, possibly projectile mechanisms for manipulating stellar fusion.
Controlled and contested Space
While not many of their systems are known to the Human race, a small number of star systems containing a significant Nomad presence have been charted (and in a few instances, fully explored): Omicron Delta, Omicron Iota (which is rumored to be the Nomad capitol system), Omicron Kappa, Omicron Lost, Omicron Minor, Omicron-90, Omicron-92, Omicron-99 and Omicron-100.
Known Bases
Exact designations of Slomon K'Hara installations throughout Sirius are unknown, but recent Order reconnaissance operations have revealed multiple seemingly inhabited bases in Omicron Iota, as well as the surrounding star systems.
