Character Info

Character's Full Name: Shayhiloosh

Species: Arborian

Gender: Both or niether

Age: Youthful at 100 human years

Place of Birth: Arboria Prime

Height: 7-7.2 feet depending on current foliage

Weight: 175 pounds

Eyes: 3 Blue eyes on vine-like stalks that can extend approximately 1.5 feet in any direction from the inside of branch crotch.

Skin: Brown black

Blood Color: Golden Amber

Hair: None but leaf color is silvery green

Physical Description

Tough durable rubbery skin covers hir body and limbs such as that found on dolphins or elephants but slightly wrinkled and brown black in color. Shayhiloosh has lots of root legs that join together at a trunk that is approximately middle of the thigh on an average human.

The top part is composed of upper tree branches with leaves such as those of a quaking asp that shake and rustle when speaking. The voice is generated through the leaves themselves by vibating them at specific speeds to achieve various frequencies. ‘Leaves’ are a silvery green. Main trunk is roughly 2.5 feet and connects the ‘legs’ or root-like structures to ‘arms’ or branches. Overall height at full growth can reach approximately 8 feet tall. Shayhiloosh has 5 main branches that at rest are anywhere from 90 - 135 degrees.

Correct pronoun would be ‘hir’, ‘hir’s’ or plural ‘hirn’, (pronounced heer, heers, or heern).

Hearing: Arborians can hear by detecting vibrations through touch and through the air. No ears are visible.

Special needs: Arborians eat through root tips on their ‘feet’ that can open or close with large pores in rich loamy soil. They require a few hours of sun with plenty of UV rays in which to rest, eat and conduct photosynthesis each day.

Educational Background

As for many Arborians, Shayhiloosh was taught in a nursery of sorts or young grove where he was planted in rich loamy soil. After his species was contacted and and a Federation Embassy established, Shayhilosh was chosen to go out and gain experience within the context of the Federation, to encourage understanding and gain perspective on other species.

Enrolling in Starfleet seemed the most obvious way to learn and gain experience with other cultures, and to explore and see what else was in the universe. Shayhiloosh majored in the study of stars and mapping. He enjoyed stellar cartography and astronomy. He and his people by default are also natural botonists and ecologists.

Biographical Notes

Family and Background: Raised in a group and taught by local elders.

Pre-Starfleet History: Rooting hirself in soil at night and looking at the starts at night after his studies were done for the day became a favorite pastime.

Skills and Abilities Profile: Shayhiloosh can generates notes and sounds besides that within human range. These include subsonic and ultrasonic as well as detect sound in these ranges. These can be used to communicate for hundreds of miles planetside and are one way his people communicate long distance.

Medical History: Arborians need rich loamy soil with plenty of mineral content. Without that they potentially suffer from a large amount of problems that can include leaf loss, swelling of joints, general withering and loss of vision.

Current Recreational Interests: Shayhiloosh enjoys singing, Arborian styles of dance, and rooting himself in interesting places planetside whenever possible.

Miscellaneous Information: Arborians have a strong code of ethics, and will not cheat, steal, murder, or lie. They will act to defend themselves in instances of life threatening danger, and are dangerous when provoked. For more information see Arborians.
