The Cannolite
« on: December 31, 2009, 09:56:53 PM »
INFO: Cannolites were from the planet Canoliss IV.


RACE: Cannolite
HEIGHT: 3 Meters Tall
SKIN: White or silver
DISTINCTION: Six arms, three-dimensional mathematics
LANGUAGE: Cannolian

HOMEWORLD:
Canoliss IV was a planet located within the Canoliss system of the Outer Rim Territories and the homeworld of the Cannolite species.

BIOLOGY AND APPEARANCE:
The Cannolites were a sentient species native to the planet Canoliss IV. Their culture was based on three-dimensional mathematics, which caused problems for off-worlders visiting their planet. This was exemplified in the locking mechanisms used to secure Cannolite doors, which were virtually impossible for non-Cannolites to operate.

CULTURE AND HISTORY:
The Cannolites had a unique culture that differed dramatically from the galactic norm, as it was deeply steeped in three-dimensional mathematics. This was manifested in their technology, such as the design of their door locks. These were formed by notched metal rods inset next to each other in a horizontal and vertical surface. To unlock the door, Cannolites used thin, magnetic pointers to pull up selected rods from the jumbled surface. The notches on the chosen rods interacted to form complex patterns, most commonly cubes. Once the correct shape was formed, the door unlocked. While operating these locks became second nature to Cannolites, most offworlders found the process hopelessly complex.

The Cannolites were a sentient species that evolved on the planet Canoliss IV, located in the Sluis sector of the Outer Rim Territories. They had contact with the galactic community, although visiting offworlders struggled with the species' unique, three-dimensional approach to technology.
