otihat species ref

The Otihat are an unpleasant race to say the least. their one meter tall body is covered in a short but thick coat of fur and their head is featureless save for a pair of antlers that have grown into something resembling a helmet and a mouth.  they have hooflike hands and feet as well. but the only interesting thing about their bodies is their head. inside is a special organ that allows them to perceive the world around them in a complete 360 degree area. things beyond this view are seen as “blurry” to them. scientists are unsure how exactly the organ works, since it can even see things that are invisible or hidden inside objects. but they have discovered that electricity will temporarily “blind” an otihat, which is something they fear immensely.

they are widely hated or barely tolerated by all races, even the normally friendly gudrians. this is because they are all selfish to the highest degree. they dont care who or how many get hurt by their actions, if they benefit from it then they will try. despite their selfish nature, they do often form groups since individually they’re about as threatening as an angry child.

they are barely even considered a society since they most advanced thing they have ever made is a spearlike gun (made from scavenged alien technology since there is no way they ever could have made energy weapons on their own.) despite being weak and prone to breaking/exploding. they insist that this is the best weapon that ever will exist and using any other kind of weapon is just stupid.
