Officially known as Orisians, the native race of Oris are colloquially known as Shellbacks to the rest of the galaxy. As a people, the Orisians resemble baseline humans in form, however they are covered with a hard carapace on their backs and their arms and legs have the ability to expand and flatten into a shape resembling a flipper. They can survive out of water with apparently no problems, making them equally at home in the water or on land. Their skin color tends to range from blue to purple.

| - Officially known as Orisians, the native race of Oris are colloquially known as Shellbacks to the rest of the galaxy. As a people, the Orisians resemble baseline humans in form, however they are covered with a hard carapace on their backs and their arms and legs have the ability to expand and flatten into a shape resembling a flipper. They can survive out of water with apparently no problems, making them equally at home in the water or on land. Their skin color tends to range from blue to purple. One of the most unique features of the Shellbacks is what they call “Echo-telepathy.” This ability isn’t true telepathy. Alone and out of the water, the best a Shellback can manage is a form of empathy; able to sense emotions and nothing more. However, their natural gift is amplified by each Shellback that comes into close proximity of another of their race. By the time there are a dozen Shellbacks in a group, each of them has true telepathic abilities. As the Shellbacks explain it to people: “It’s a lot like echolocation, only on a mental wavelength.” Water is also found to enhance this gift. Even a single Shellback in water can influence the thoughts and instincts of nearby sealife. Echo-telepathy comes as natural to Shellbacks as breathing and can’t be turned off. Because of their involuntary empathic and telepathic gifts, Shellbacks make excellent diplomats and spies. As a people, they tend to keep to themselves and are not overtly aggressive to others. While they don’t try to hide their telepathic gifts, they don’t go out of their way to let others know about them either. Very few Shellbacks venture off of Oris. Those that do are usually trained as ambassadors to other worlds.
