Species report: Raloi
Cluster: Charn Nebula
System: Kunuvess
Planet: Turvess
BEGIN TRANSMISSION:/ BIOLOGY OF SPECIES.
Skin color: Pale ranges from blue white- pink white translucent.
Eye color: Washed out. Pale blues, light green, pale brown, light violet.
Hair color: Pale dark hair is a fair mutation. Commonly semi translucent blond red or brown hair.
Build: very slight, slender almost to the point of being frail but not quiet.
Hight male: 4'6"-5'3"
Hight female: 4'3"- 4'9"
Weight male: 65-85 lbs
Weight female: 55-75lbs
Wings: wings are extremely large compared to body size being almost as tall as a Raloi when full grown.
Avian features: hawk like eyes, legs curve back(see Turians), talons on feet, claws(talons) on hands, wings, hollow bones, air sacs, gizzard.
Humanoid features: bipedal, similar facial structure to a human (nose formed not of cartilage but of bone, narrower eye set), mammary glands, live birth, 4 chambered heart.
Skeletal system: hollow bones with more focus on the sternum and shoulder bones than in Humans. Legs designed for walking and jogging, must take weight off when running or sprinting by using wings, solid talons and claws used for defense and perching.
Muscular system: small dense muscles with highly advantageous muscle attachment points. Again focus towards chest and back, strongest muscles in wings. Heavy compared to other species muscles their small size allows for a smaller profile.
Circulatory system: 4 chambered heart, both veins and arteries are muscular, small heart for body size is compensated for by a rapid heart beat and strong vessels, massive web of capillaries run under the skin causing the blue "marble" skin common in Raloi.
Respiratory system: large powerful lungs and air sacks dominate thorax, combined with a massive net of capillaries the Raloi's lungs are highly efficient even in low oxygen environments such as high altitude.
Digestive system: A gizzard, crop, liver, pancreas, stomach, small and large intestine, esophagus, and mouth are present. Tongues are long and have fine control, sharp carnivorous teeth located in rear of mouth while incisors make up the front of the teeth, liver is reduced in size but increased in density from human, same with pancreas, much shorter intestines and smaller stomach due in part to crop and gizzard.
Endocrine system: similar in function and form to human endocrine system.
Immune system: weaker than humans, Turians, and Asari, due to low rates of cross species diseases. (Warning, Raloi off Turvess are recommended to wear modified quarian enviro suits when possible, and when not to wear respirators.
metabolism: the Raloi have a calorie need unmatched by even biotics of any species. Sugar water is drunk instead of plain water to prevent hypoglycemic crashes. Lacking any extensive fat or Glycogen storage Raloi have unmatched ATP storage and a withering rate of cellular respiration.

Authors Note: The Raloi are actually a cannon species all that's mentioned is avian and the planet so I ran with it updates will cover: religion, culture, history, technology, philosophy, notable figures. This is a companion story to Mass Effect:Vengeance. Azreal out-
