A Variant Non-Human Race is a distinct intelligent species, not of the human species or a subspecies thereof.

  • They were created by genetic engineering performed on a species after it has achieved sophontdom, but not necessarily become a member of the interstellar community.

Description (Specifications)

These species may have various morphologies including humanoid, semi-humanoid, or non-humanoid forms.

History & Background (Dossier)

Some sophont species such as the Hivers put great societal important on the creation, Uplift, and perpetuation of advanced lifeforms.

The Solomani share a common passion for Geneering, but their attitudes regarding new life differ greatly from the Hivers.

Non-human Geneered Species

A few of the genetically engineered species that exist within Charted Space include:
