Species Deviation

Soldiers are humanoid aliens with only a few minor differences in anatomy. They all have black-pigmented hair, variations of peach-coloured skin, white blood and Imprints. Each possesses a gem colour that plays a large part in their appearance.

Imprints
All Soldiers possess natural tattoo-like patterns surrounding their left eye called Imprints. The colour of these correlate directly to the colour of their gem. Occasionally the associated gem will be naturally embedded into their flesh. Non-psychic Soldiers are born with bioluminescent Imprints. As a Soldier ages, their Imprint grows in size as long as they are healthy, eventually covering their entire body. Every Imprint pattern is unique, like a human fingerprint.

Gem Colouring
The colour of a Soldier's gem will also be the colour of their Imprint, nails and lips.
