Baboon with a MAAWS
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
A kind and welcoming people, the Delfinos are a quizzical bunch with a biological aversion to violence and conflict. Throughout almost the entirety of their ten thousand year recorded history war has been an incredibly rare occurrence because of their world's ability to provide for all. This has ironically slowed their rate of development and this contentment has slowed it further, meaning that when the Republic made formal contact with the Delfinos they were only in a state of development that mirrors Earth in the 1950's. The Delfinos never developed their own spacecraft or advanced weapons, preferring instead to trade and purchase small shuttles and transports and rarely do they ever leave the orbit of their homeworld or the moon Pianta. They didn't partake actively in the Crossroads-Eriadu War, being smart enough not to get into a fight with modern soldiers and vehicles. The war never really effected them, due to how brief it was. Since then, the world has been a magnet for refugees seeking peaceful lives from the conflicts closer to the Core.

- Have their own electric power grids, adapted from solar, tidal, and wind power sources.
- Have attained the power of flight, prefer the use of dirigibles with helium blimps and zeppelins.
- Weapons technology is obsolete and behind the times, only have breach-loading cannons (Used as a saluting gun) with exploding shells and spears and halberds for guards on ceremonial duties.
- Have their own complex but rustic-looking architecture which includes air conditioning and refrigeration-type technology.
- Religion/Beliefs: They have a religion which sees the moon of Pianta as a deity, but this religion is no longer in practice.
- General behavior: Behavior is almost entirely peaceful and nearly-carefree. They have little in the way of power-grabbing type of aspirations as a species, and prefer to live day by day and enjoy life. They will welcome those who come in peace to their communities as members and can be so welcoming that they can stray into annoying and intrusive. However, those who come with ill intentions will be immediately shunned and they will be very passive-aggressive in letting these kinds of people know it immediately. However, their lax behavior can turn quickly if they determine that they have to defend themselves with force, in which case they are very willing to fight, but are probably too eager to lay down their weapons (For what they're worth) if they see the opportunity to return to the status quo.
