Korvax
The Korvax are a highly intelligent race of aliens who seem to have a mostly mechanical makeup. They appear to be robots only they are much more “human” than most of the other machines you’ll come across during your adventures. You can tell how they’re feeling based on the lights on their faces. They light up green when pleased and move towards red when things aren’t to their liking. Science and knowledge are very important to them, as well as tradition.
Korvax can be encountered in most systems, and chances are their language will be one of the first you really get a hang of. Their Monolith interactions seem to always consist of some sort of right of passage. The Korvax hold their history and traditions high, and don’t think fondly of those who can’t think as they do.
Keeping the Korvax happy isn’t too difficult though. Pass their rites of passage (given through the above mentioned monoliths), help them when you encounter them out in the wild, find their lost brethren, and don’t be mean to them. If you keep all of these things in mind, you’ll be set.
