  • Communication: Verbal: Ent
  • Technology level: They do not have the ability to use most galactic technology but their own revolves around swords and bows with small arrows non lethal to most larger people but to themselves it is dangerous. Their clothing is made from leaves and silk spun by insects in the forests. Usually dyed with natural colors for different meanings. Red bandana's and belts to display when crossing the territories of other As-Aki, Purple for when they havbe hostile intent and blue for mourning.
  • Religion/Beliefs:
    • Highly territorial with each other and community driven. The families themselves are a nuclear family with the children living with the parents until either married off to another family or the parents die in which case the children scatter finding another family to live with and marry into. Their dangerously territorial nature has them stubborn when it comes to change. They will do everything to keep their territory, to keep what is theirs and not throw away soemthing they have worked to acquire.

      Their attitudes are based on something, that they do not reveal to many, within the Asobi system they have been able to scatter throughout the worlds, across the moons and become very different in time as needed. Adapting to survive the worlds but trying to face the harsh elements. Their gods were based around the Blue Tribe at one point as their origins in the galaxy is from Cazador, they left the world with the Go nagai arriving on other worlds within the system to spread and expand their influence.

      In time they abandoned their gods with the Go Nagai disappearing and the Taung arriving, the Warriors of Shadow sisterhood a group of warriors within the taung culture who left them alone in the forests. Allowing them to watch and learn from them. They learned the valuable skills of warriors, how to work and fashion weapons from the elements. From bone they can create swords, from wood arrows and from the sap of trees namely the Sdh-Owa tree's sap that can be used for armor.
  • General behavior:
    • With outsiders they are playful, hiding themselves from view and working to not be noticed until the others leave. They do not attack people unless provoked but they also do not want anything usually to do with other species that can be dangerous to their health and families. With each other they are territorial attacking and warring unless at a peaceful meeting where they wear red. The children live with the parents until the parents die and then disperse out to marry and join other families for a time taking what they can.

      While it is a large part of their culture and history no one knows why they are so hostile... they don't actually remember the reason why but the general ideal is resources. There are only so many within an area of supplies a year and sharing it with others who are not kin can be a dangerous thing. It can be tricky and lead to other worse fates as they war. The ancestors of the As-Aki not dumb when it came to things establishing rules, they wear red to show non hostile intent, purple when they go to war and blue to mourn the lost.

      Their families structure is built around it with the mother and father producing generally two hundred children in a lifetime with the males and females able to start reproducing at the age of five (1/4th of their lifetime) A family a larger family can generally handle larger threats themselves as they work to keep the territory and creatures within it safe. They cannot communicate but against most of the creatures they can out think them or fight back. They are still hunted by predators, still in danger but parents work to teach their children about the world around them.

      Their work in hollow stumps and trees is to make a home with many rooms, defenses and ways to get around unnoticed. Others within the forests they will deal with are seen as a dangerous group. The humans they have encountered regard them as tiny people who move around the forests and play with children. Entrancing them and using the threat of luring them away in the night. They can use the force in such a way the air around them is pure to breath creating a tiny sphere able to repel pollution and toxins.

      The homes they use in defending comes from observations and years of refinement, working at forges is foolish but they can create rudimentary lathes to smooth and shape, grindstones to sharpen their weapons as the swords made from the bone of dead animals can be used for attacking and against larger enemies become that unreachable splinter you cannot get out from under your skin and is always bringing pain. With the right groups in the path specifically the Del-Ya they have worked as back up and scouts of farmland.

      In the galaxy at large under the right conditions they can be bribed with resources and sweets (much better then credits) into being spies going through vents and around cities to get information. Their skills for flight, stature all in their favor. Even their weapons could be a dangerous thing for keypads or delivering a small amount of poison if used the right way. The obsession and love of sweets toes to a nature more interested in food and resources over material things,
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Often in the forests and considered a myth until recently the As-Aki are very special and secretive. living in dead trees and within hollow stumps, they dig deep underground to protect themselves in the winter or seek shelter in the cities somewhere warm and hidden away. The centuries within the asobi system has seen them stowing away with some of the ships and going to other worlds. The Go Nagai who transferred them throughout the system using them for more then just gardeners.

When the Go Nagai disappeared on their campaign of destruction the As-Aki grew out of practice from the ancient beings and began to settle into life on the worlds they had been brought to.As the ages went on and the other species of the Asobi system came, went and built up they remained in the dense forests enjoying their lives and choosing the places where it was warm.

They enjoy riding some of the creatures like the Ami into battle with each other letting the colored mice be their mounts to move faster. When the sith empire came to the system the As-Aski remained hidden working with the few they could to band together and avoid these violent things that exploited everything they did. Under the Silver jedi they have found a home helping out the healers group who like using nature and the plants in the system to help things.

The As-Aki joined the Silver jedi.. at least a couple of them.. the chance to aid in growing the knowledge of the force was too good to turn down and they could move around faster then most. Being able to act like scouts and saboteurs in attacks. Their homeworld being attacked but they moved on to several others usually within jedi temples being able to aid in delivering messages and quickly find others. Ahch-To and Atrisia being a place of interest for them as it provided whole new worlds to explore.

Do you mean only Black to white, as in grayscale?
Or do you mean any color at all? If this is the case, does this include colors not typically found in natural skin and hairtones like pink, blue, green, etc?

Culture: Highly territorial with each other and community driven. The families themselves themselves are a nuclear family with the children
Fix this.

Their dangerously territorial nature has them developing small changes, when one is passing through another territory they wear a red item visible and do not draw their blade unless attacked.
I don't understand this line. It seems like a thought or two was left out somewhere. What do you mean developing small changes? Changes of what? What sort of red item? Why? What does a red item signify?

What are their weapons made out of? Are they technologically advanced to run teeny-tiny smithy forges to craft metal swords or are they carved from stone or perhaps made from resin or petrified tree sap?

What is their knowledge of technology and the outside world? Do they know what's going on out there or is this all mystical and legendary to them? What is their view on technology and things that do harm to the environment?

Do they have any religion?

What is the cause of the extremely volatile nature between communities?

Does each community have a designated leader? Are they willing to cease hostilities in order to counter a greater foe?

Are they capable of communicating with animals?

Are they force sensitive?

Do they stand as guardians of their home in the forest or are these just tiny people with wings that just survive and use the land?

Are they preyed upon by other creatures?

You stated they can't handle cold weather, what else are they sensitive to? Extreme heat? How about chemicals? Poisons? Toxins? Pollution?

They have no real strengths? Not even intellect wise? What about knowledge of the natural realm? Maybe good memories? Quick learners? Or are they generally a daft and simple-minded race? Are they quick? Could they perhaps be used as messengers or even, dare I say, spies due to their small size?

Basically, I'd like to see more detail in everything here. This is a sentient race numbering into the hundred-millions open for people to take up as full characters. If I want to make one, I need to be able to read this and go "Ok, I know exactly what's going on here and how my character will react to the world around it."

Looking better.

You've noted several times that these creatures have traveled from their home planet and also that they cannot survive the cold. Things brings to light an issue with their diet, which consists only of flower pollen and sugar (which seems to be more a drug than a food source).

It would be prudent to expand their diet to...something other than flower pollen. Flowers don't generally survive and certainly don't pollinate in the winter. And then, what if they are in space or traveling to new planets where flowers are not available? They'd starve, making their existence away from any place other than somewhere containing flowers very implausible.
