greater body hair, monochromatic eyes).ĭistinguishing features of the species include their body hair, absent mostly on their faces, palms and likely the bottoms of their feet and stomachs. Before the introduction of the VEP, it is likely they resembled humans even more closely than they currently do, with the "devolution" effect of the VEP causing their more ape-like features (I.E. There are whispers of a rebel group ready to denounce the MiniKnog and lead the Apex into revolution.but in Apex society even discussion of dissent is punishable by death.Ī selection of male and female Apex BiologyĪpex are mammals similar both to humans and the "great apes" commonly found on Earth. However, this criticism was silenced when the critics themselves were selected. Those chosen for the experimentation process are rarely seen again, but their names are said to be inscribed on the wall of the chosen which sits deep within the Ministry.įor a time, the MiniKnog received criticism from several prominent Apex for what appeared to be a bias towards selecting only the poorest in society to be members of the chosen. The most honored members of Apex society are those chosen by the MiniKnog to donate their bodies to furthering the VEP. The nature of this regime allowed the VEP to be administered species-wide in less than 10 years. Each Apex dedicates his/her life to the survival and progression of the Apex as a whole.
The Apex operate under a collectivist regime controlled by the MiniKnog (The Ministry of Knowledge). The VEP allowed the Apex to trade physical devolution for intellectual evolution. The Apex were close to human in appearance until a breakthrough in research into accelerated evolution led to the creation of the “Vestigi-Evo Process” (VEP). Misc: At some point along his journey Zhanni acquired the mask he now currently always dons.The Apex are a playable race in Starbound. piecing together the fragments of his past and this dark conspiracy, he plots his revenge against the Avian Stargazers. Since then Zhanni has taken to the stars, stealing an Avian ship and making it his new home. And alongside with the few others struggling to survive, he destroyed the lab from the inside out. Many of the subjects, unable to survive without life support, died in the ensuing carnage. Though despite this resounding success, he was considered an imperfect specimen, as the genetic testing upon him caused what the Stargazers considered unsavory developments, being that of horns, fangs, and a long, mutant tail.Īt some point a power meltdown occurred at the lab he was stored, and he along with several other subjects were subsequently released. He was considered one of the few "successful" attempts at this experiment, as he grew older his body rapidly began to develop fleshy stumps upon his back where wings would grow, and eventually those stumps developed into full-grown wings.
