Ascended

The Ascended are a race of 5th dimensional beings, few have ever been spotted.

Ascended Biology
Not much has been discovered about the Ascended's biology, we are not even aware of their true name.

They are apparently from the 5th dimension, according to the words of Evyriakaria, one of their kind who has hidden away on the barren world of Zeire for thousands of years.

They appear to be mammalian-reptilian hybrids with humanoid figures, and elongated ears that get thinner towards the tips. Though, it is entirely possible their appearance is optional, and they may be giving themselves a similar figure to most races' to form some kind of familiarity.

They appear to have some form of clairvoyance, that enables them to see through time into the future as well as the past. While it isn't clear if they have the ability to manipulate time, they can interact with different points in time through their natural link with time itself. Due to this, we can theorize that a single Ascended is interacting with multiple beings in multiple points in time at once, though it isn't known if they can be in numerous times at once.

They possess the unique ability to harness the raw power of the universe, and it isn't known what they draw their energy from. Few of their abilities have ever been seen, though they seem to possess the ability to fire beams of incredibly powerful energy. They also possess a strange EMP blast type ability, which was used on planet Zeire to disable the scout ships investigating the planet.

Those that visit our dimension have been shown to exhibit hyper-advanced technology, though few of their vessels have ever been seen, no shape can be made out as the lights from the vessels are simply too blinding to make out a shape. Though, a crashed vessel on planet Zeire that only shards remained from where constructed out of translucent crystalline gems, one of which was collected and shipped to a research vessel in the Outer Territories where it was deemed not of this dimension.

The few that have been seen have been a vibrant array of colors, with their odd abilities often being different colors as well.

Ascended History
It isn't known what planet the Ascended are from, their real name or even if the 5th dimension possesses planets in the typical sense we think it in.

We know that they're the driving force in the entirety of the 5th dimension, their empire spans the entirety of the dimension. They seem to be benevolent rulers, though they will use force and do possess incredibly advanced weapon technologies. It isn't known if other races were born from the 5th dimension, but it seems improbable to assume that no others were.

They've been known to exhibit extreme cases of empathy to the fledgling races of our dimension, Evyriakaria in particular was shown to care for even her enemies. When she mistakenly assumed a Neraavian vessel to be an attacking enemy, she EMP'd it and nearly killed the crew of 19. She felt incredible guilt, and gave them shelter from the frequent asteroid impacts. She helped them rebuild a spacecraft for them and even went as far as to charge their power cells with her power manipulation. Few teams have ventured back to the remote world of Zeire, though friendly contact has been established on a few occasions with Evyriakaria.

3 total Ascended have been talked with, though 10 have been spotted before as well as nearing a dozen of their ships over the course of the last 400 years.

It isn't known why the Ascended seem to be coming more prevalent in our dimension, though Evyriakaria says she was exiled from the 5th dimension for attempting to hand advanced technology to the 4th dimension. It is unknown if they can travel between the 5th and the other dimensions at will, though it appears to not be possible as Evyriakaria has been stuck in the 3rd dimension for 63 thousand years.

Evyriakaria commented on how powerful the Ascendants truly are, stating that they can 'use stars or other cosmic objects as batteries'. Though it isn't known entirely if this is true, or how it would work Evyriakaria states that once the power has been drained from the star it will collapse in on itself, possessing no way of keeping itself alive. It is theorized that if this is true, the star would turn into a blackhole, though there's no way of knowing for sure if this is the case.

When asked to give advice for the future, Evyriakaria simple stated: "Watch your six" which might allude to a bleak future the Orii races could face, or might simply be a humorous jab from the woman.

Not much else is known of the race, though Evyriakaria may allow insight sometime in the future.
