Here is a new species that I made up for the site just tell me what you think

Gith


Name: Gith
Home Planet: Gootha
Appearance: The Gith were modern Earth humans in 20,000 BC then they started to evolve and were genetically altered to become what they are today. The Gith have kept the same shape of a human being on the outside finding it to be the best adaptable form that is suitable for the planet Gootha. The adult male Gith is on average 6’0 foot tall, has a variation of skin colors, with hair that is short as they have lost the ability to keep hair long. Women of the Gith are on average 5’10, have usually very white and pale skin as they were used in the depths of the mines, and also have short hair but can grow longer then that of men.
Abilities: The Gith have naturally and genetically been altered over the years to be ten times stronger then a normal human, eight times better reaction time then that of a normal human, have two hearts, genetically altered to have a whole new respiration system allowing for less oxygen and poorer quality of oxygen, skin that is harder and more durable as to prevent burns and puncture to the skin, night vision as to see in dark areas of mines, and a skeletal structure that is six times stronger then that of a normal human and allowing double joints to allow access to hard to reach areas.
Culture:

The Gith were natives to the planet Gootha. Gootha is a mineral rich desert world that is home to the Gith since their beginning of their civilization. Around 40,000 BC the first Gith started to evolve on Gootha much like primitive cavemen. The Start of the Gith started out as roaming nomads who looked for food and water around the planet never staying in one area to long as to find more. It looked like they would continue to be nomads until the first Emperor of the Gith was born and founded a the first Gith Dynasty. He settled near huge mineral patches converting the economy of the Gith from hunter gathers to miners and agricultural based. The Empire soon expanded to half the planet in 25,000 BC. The Empire was doing well trying to gather more land and people into its fold. Then the worst thing happened towards the Emperors power, they had a weak and easily corruptible leader. At this time the Gith were much like that of the roman empire and had a senate. So with this leader the Senate decided it was its chance to take power so the first revolution happened killing the Emperor off. At 20,000 BC a power struggle then started between the Emperor’s power and the Senate’s power for the next 5,000 years.

In 20,000 BC the power struggle was to much and a cease fire began in which a new constitution would be made checking the power of both the Senate and the Emperor with a new Judicial branch. The technology level at this time was of that of Sung
China in the first 1100 AD. Also the introduction of gun powder was a huge factor to make a cease fire as the death toll increased. However with new weapons of destruction being made their was a lack of development of civic, social, and commercial technology to be increased. Also after finding about the Imperial Military switched from the traditional spear of the common soldier to the rifle which was very much like the 1861 Springfield Musket used in the Civil war. However they had not yet developed the cannon. However officers still carry the traditional sword (much like a Katana but used a different metal found on the native planet of Gootha that is super light and super strong). So when peace finally came it was hard for the people to switch from constant war to a more peaceful time. Still after a hundred years science was not just focused on war but still the war crippled the development of new technology needed later to defend its world later on.

In 10,000 BC the Gith were at a technology level behind that of what Earth would have been at. Ever since the war, sciences were in a dark age of sorts. Political, Militaristic, Social, and Economically the Gith kept advancing but in Science it hit a brick wall. Also in 9,567 BC the first form of evolution came to be. The people started to develop a new form of skin that was able to was harder to puncture and harder to burn from the severe heat of the sun and from the constant war of before. Then in 9,233 BC the next form of evolution took place. The muscle mass increased allowing people to become stronger then before. At this time the Emperor saw this happening and started “recruiting” these new people as soldiers for the new Imperial Army. After thirty years the new Imperial Army was finished and so was the Senate. A new war started in 8,756 BC.

The Imperial Army was destroying that of the Senate’s guard. 2/3 of Gootha was in the hands of the Emperor when the Chizz (I may do later) came who were a technologically superior race who had mastered Faster then Light travel. When they arrived they saw the chaos of the planet and were going to leave when they found the rare metal Dithic. A super strong and super light metal. They then scanned the planet again and saw the potential for a strong labor force and ground soldiers to be used. So the Chizz allied themselves with the Senate knowing it would be easier to have them eventually turn on themselves then to fight one united leader. So with their superior technology the Senate easily beat back the Imperial Army and took control. However the Chizz started to make the Senate fear itself. Then the Senate collapsed in 8,598 BC and with it came the rise of the Chizz dominance of Gootha.

The set the Gith into a whole new caste system. If the Gith had superior strength and skin they were made soldiers if not they were miners. This process kept happening until the Chizz started to genetically modify the entire population of Gootha. The Chizz were not afraid of the physically superior Gith because they had superior technology to keep any rebellion down. So the Chizz kept genetically making the Gith better soldiers and miner. Giving them better and improved respiration, circulatory, and skeletal systems. Making them able to breath easier, work harder, and do more stressful work. The Chizz always gave the Gith the newest and latest genetic modifications as it was illegal to do it to themselves but the Gith were slaves and not in the law. So they were always given the best and the newest. The Chizz government also turned a blind eye as Dithic was flowing from Gootha. So the majority of the planet was slave labor, however another part was turned into shock troops for the Chizz government as they were genetic soldiers who were nearly invincible with the Chizz technology. So 1 of every ten children were taken from their parents at a young age and turned into elite soldiers who did the jobs that were not supposed to go on to the record books, such as putting down colonial rebellions.
Then in 1,134 AD a veteran Gith soldier was tired of being treated like garbage by his commanding officer a Chizz. So he and his team took the ship that they had been in with force. The Chizz were killed off before they even had a chance to react. The Gith were given stun chips in them in case this happened however before any of the Chizz could activate them they were all killed except the pilots and doctors. The Gith forced the doctors to remove the chips and show them how to do it. After killing a nurse, a doctor, and another nurse the one remaining doctor and two nurses removed the chips and showed them how to do it. The Gith shock troops let them live. Then came the pilots, the Gith were trained soldiers but not pilots so they forced the pilots to show them how to fly. They then killed them after showing them. They turned the ship around to Gootha. They crashed landed in the desert. Soon they found a nomad group of Gith who had fled the cities and the mines. When these two groups met the rebellion on Gith started.


The Gith rebellion started on 1134AD. The Gith rebellion started out slow. The shock troopers started by building an army. They knew how to fight, train, and win. Also the population no longer needed the genetic modifications as the traits were not just birthed to their children. So the shock troops had a population and the trainers. The first few years of the rebellion was slow as they built up stash of weapons to use in the rebellion. After three decades of building and training the Gith made their first move at a Chizz outpost. The rebellion took it out and with it the first stone was thrown. The Chizz saw this and being fools sent in the Gith Shock Troops to stop the rebellion like they had before. However the Gith were able to remove the stun chips and have more soldiers. The Chizz didn’t realize that they were fueling the fire until ten years in. So the rebellion continued for the next century with the Chizz trying to retake land with ground forces. The Chizz government did nothing as long as the Dithic supplies remained a constant. This however was the whole problem with the Chizz being in Gootha. So the rebellion had an issue. If they stopped shipping the mineral the Chizz government would put their foot down with ships. So the rebellion knew they had to win ground where they could.

In 1968 AD is when the rebellion took its first action against the mining operations of the Chizz. They had hoped that with the build up of weapons and troops the Chizz wouldn’t be able to fight back. So they stopped shipping out the mineral with a mass strike of the workers and ground forces taking out all Chizz operations. At first it was an instant success. The Chizz were unprepared for the attack and the lack of the mineral. So after twenty years of peace on Gootha with a new form of government slowly being made. The Chizz came with a fleet of ships to bombard the cities of the Gith hoping to enslave the population once again. So the massing bombing of Gootha came. With it countless losses of life. Many of the Gith either fled to the mines for protection or left in ships they had found.

Since the bombing many of the Gith have fled looking for a new world to colonize. They are spread far in the Galaxy making homes on many new worlds. One group of Gith made their way to Earth in 2021. When they got to Earth they couldn’t believe it. An entire world filled with various resources, mostly peaceful nations, and respect for diversity. So the first of the Gith arrived hoping for the same. They were accepted by many different countries. The Gith did what they did best, some became miners working hard for a good living or they became private security for many because of their extensive training. A few countries even started integrating them into their military at low level enlisted personal. The Gith had been excepted on Earth well as they are able to cross breed with humans slightly. The human has to have a special genetic marker in their DNA to be accepted by the Gith gene code. However many cross breeds between the two have been unsuccessful and many doctors have tried to find a better way for the two species to cross breed, Shi and Gith however are non-compatible because the Shi evolved more mentally while the Gith were more physically altered. As time went on some of the Gith found homes on the City ships such as the Aurora working odd jobs as well as Security Officers owing so much to humanity who took them in and gave them a new home.

I like the species, but slightly confused on how exactly they differ from humans. You mentioned some diffrences but I am still scratching my head a bit over them, to me they seem very human to me. I think you should add a few more diffrences in the character to make them diffrent.

Well it's up to the admin to decide. I think you need some other features to the char. Pale skin for women etc and less hair doesn't necessarly work for me. But it's up to him.
