Back, way back, before the beginning of The War, when an evolving humankind was expanding into the stars, the Raive created modified human clades as specialized pioneers. There are two main clades (and several sub-clades) in existence today; Sulmans and Celestes, designed for planet and space work, respectively. Within these broader categories are a number of sub-categories, but the main breakdown goes as follows: | Back, way back, before the beginning of The War, when an evolving humankind was expanding into the stars, the Raive created modified human clades as specialized pioneers.

:Celestes, on the other hand, are small, thin, flexible, and mostly hairless. (Sounds like a dream, right?) They shed very little of what little hair they have, possess skin musculature to force the flow of fluids in the body to correct proportions. Thus, they don't suffer from space or motion sickness. They have strong, but light bones with a biologically-thickened lattice structure, and a tough skull and brain. They make well-adapted Z-G Warriors. Also, all Celestes have prehensile feet. They have a good eye for detail, are thorough, logical, and good at math. | :Celestes, on the other hand, are small, thin, flexible, and mostly hairless. (Sounds like a dream, right?)
