Four legs, two arms, two wings, floofy ears, what's not to like?
Biology
Glaseah were created by the first and second generation Pelted, rather than by humanity. This was a highly controversial decision, but some Pelted saw the good intents of Project Homefront and wanted to improve upon it.
Glaseah are centauroid, leonine, short, and stocky, with most not being taller than 5'4". They are always skunk-patterned (either striped or spotted) and are brown, black, or gray pelted; golden Glaseah have been seen but are very rare. They have paws with retractable claws, four fingers, feathered ears (with fairly poor hearing), and wings similar to bats which cannot support their weight for flight. Some may be born without wings and are known as sef-Glaseah.
Most Glaseah are espers, being able to read minds and communicate mentally. Almost all Glaseah are calm, compassionate, and family-oriented, and can live over 200 years. Many become teachers or scientists due to their level-headed natures.
Most Glaseah are asexual, due to a greatly reduced amount of hormone levels. This has resulted in the Glaseah seeing reproduction as a duty of their people, and often requiring either religiously-trained individuals or technology to assist in the process. Many families have 15 or more children
The wingless Glaseah are known as sef-Glaseah and were originally intended to breed true to correct for the awkwardness of the Pelted engineers' earlier, winged design. But the Glaseah preferred themselves as their Goddess dreamt them first, and convinced their designers politely to stop messing with the Goddess's plans. The engineers made the winged trait dominant, and the sef variant remains rare.
Religion
Most Glaseah worship the Mother, Aksivaht'h, who is said to have thought the universe into life. Aksivaht'h represents both male and female, but is most often called the Goddess.
Language
The Glaseah mostly abandoned the language the Seersa created for them, but their names often carry over its legacy.
Trivia
Have a slight musty scent in morning (pre-shower), like an old book, but warmer. Reminded Jahir of herses. [1]
