Yim

The Yim are a species of multi-eyed and tentacle aliens local to the planet Sirius Prime. They originally introduced themselves as the “noble” Yim, but this is for other races to infer. The Yim are an extremely friendly species, offering their welcomes and greetings to any aliens who seek to befriend them. In addition, they view all allies as citizens of the Universe at large and take great pleasure in the company of others. Their technology isn’t as advanced as humans are, only able to colonise within the confines of the system they share with the Urlons.

The Yim are attempting to colonise the planet Skekaye, so as to spread their “song of harmony” across the cosmos, one planet at a time. They view the spreading of the universe as a reason to speed up their colonisation rights, lest certain planets “get away”. They are experiencing difficulties due to pirates like the Kzanti attacking their ships. They are also facing issues from a race called the Urlons. The Yim seem to abhor violence, but are willing to let others assist them in the defence of their ships if it means they can continue their mission. Yim typically seek a pacifistic route when dealing with conflict, as they wished to welcome the Urlon to their world, as they had colonised it first.
