General behavior: As a bug that never had many members, and still fewer today, they have adapted socially to what they believe to be the norm of people. While many of the Centauri are violent outlaws, seeking only to wreak havoc and have fun before their ultimate extinction, many just want to live in peace. Centorites never care about their hosts, they see them as only a tool to gain their ultimate goal, whatever that may be.
History: [SIZE=12.222222328186px]As being a bug usually is, life is quite difficult, especially if you so happen to be killed by the sun on a planet with two of them. The Centorites are a small worm-like creature that lived in the caves of Tatooine, often feeding on any poor creature that walked into their den. They were only able to migrate when both of the suns were down, covering their main weakness. One day the Centorites made their way into town and took over most of the humans there, killing the rest that they could not take. Using these bodies, they left their desert planet and sought out new haven for themselves.[/SIZE]
Notable Player-Characters: N/A
Intent: This is just a species that I thought would be fun to have in the universe, I'm not sure I would make one myself, as I am currently juggling enough characters and work, but I think other people might (hopefully). I also think I've made them weak enough to be easily dispatched, but still pose a viable threat to people.
P.S. Sorry this is so short, but they're bugs, I don't know how to make 5 paragraphs on the culture of a bug that lives on a desert planet. Luke Skywalker - "If there's a bright centre to the universe, you're on the planet that it's farthest from."
