For whatever reason, onions, chocolate, coffee and tea are poisonous to them, however they are able to eat most corpses without butchering.

Slimes are almost completely immune to cancer due to the nature of their cellular structure, and cannot get drunk due to a specialized metabolism process that isn't affected by alcohol.
They can store items inside their bodies in an inventory that can be accessed by anyone.

'''Naming Convention:''' Common, Qualia[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qualia] (ex. A Peaceful Sunrise)
Diona can split into 3 pet-like Nymphs upon death manually, or by being gibbed. The original player take control of the "Brain" nymph (The only one able to talk), and the other two can be taken over by ghosts if given cognizine. If given enough time after splitting a single nymph can reform into a full Diona on it's own. The resultant Diona has a different name, and looses memories from it's death (other perhaps than the need to run away and find safety). Additionally this can change traits such as gender.
 
A zombified Diona is able to split once dead (or after giving up and returning to body) and the resulting nymphs will be zombified, though unable to reform.

The newest species contracted for employment on Space Station 14, particularly for their pressure-resistant exoskeletons and dexterity. Possibly related to the space spiders and giant tarantulas found in outer space thanks to their similarly robust digestive systems, able to consume raw food without the risk of disease. They're also vulnerable to blunt and piercing damage, and don't take well to extreme temperatures.
Not to be confused with insectoids, Arachnids cut a striking figure with their pressure-resistant exoskeletons and extra arms. Possibly related to the space spiders and giant tarantulas found in outer space. Thanks to their similarly robust digestive systems, they are able to consume raw food without the risk of disease. They are more vulnerable to asphyxiation and take longer to recover from it. Their sharp teeth allow them to do piercing damage instead of blunt. They have the ability to weave silk and build exclusively all sorts of things But at the expense of consuming a little bit of hunger.
 
They have two extra pocket slots formed by webs.

== Moths ==
[[File:Fullmoth.png|100px]]


They also get hungry faster than most other humanoid life-forms, so expect them to take all the food in the kitchen. 🥧
Moths, meanwhile, actually ''are'' an insectoid species. Their wings allow them greater control in zero gravity than other species, and their natural resistance to cold helps greatly in a space environment. The tradeoff, naturally, is that heat is more dangerous.

Vox are a strange lot, they're raptor-like creatures that can only breathe nitrogen, as oxygen is '''very hazardous''' to their health to the point where they take ticking poison damage as long as they're exposed to the air, provided said air has even a trace of oxygen within it. To counter-act this, a Vox must either be in a pure nitrogen-based environment or, more commonly, breathing from a nitrogen tank, one of which is provided to them at the start of each round.
 
Much like Reptilians, their unarmed attacks deal slashing damage instread of blunt.

Looks like the article engineers are still writing this page. This page is a stub, meaning it is incomplete and/or lacking information.

There are currently 7 playable species in Space Station 14 - Humans, Reptilians, Slimes, Diona, Dwarves, Arachnids, and Moths. Each has their own distinct stats, strengths, and weaknesses, but all have a few things in common:

  • all species are capable of equipping the same tools and items.
  • all species are capable of metabolizing reagents and experiencing their effects.
  • all species speak the same language.
  • all species are to be treated equally by the crew and AI onboard.

NOTE: "Damage Modifiers" refers to TAKEN damage, not damage dealt to other entities.

Humans

Baseline, unmodified human beings, functionally similar to the human beings of our world, aside for a comparatively incredible resistance to the vacuum of space (a trait shared more or less with all SS14 species). They cannot eat raw meat.

Body

Organs

Heart Determines the efficiency of blood pumping. A healthy heart means a healthier body.

Brain The center of self, the most important part of any individual. Determines who inhabits and controls the body.

Lungs Determine the rate of breathing. Unhealthy lungs may result in the body getting less O2/N2 than it needs.

Stomach Aids in the digestion of foods, liquids, and reagents in the body.

Kidneys Filter the vital fluids of any toxins they might contain.

Liver Contains enzymes that aid in certain biological processes.

Eyes Allow for visual information to be extracted from an organism's environment via light.

Reptilians

Reptile-like humanoids with sharp claws, tough scales, and an appetite for raw meat. Their unarmed melee attacks do slash instead of blunt damage due to their claws. For whatever reason, onions, coffee and tea are poisonous to them and are unable to consume anything like Grain, Dairy, or anything overly processed, however, they are able to consume both raw and cooked meat without the risk of disease and fruits. They can use their tail to pull things allowing both of their hands to be free.

Tree-like plant people whose bodies react with fertilizer and weed-killing chemicals similar to regular plants. They cannot wear shoes, walk slower than the other races, and have a relatively high resistance to brute-force damage. They also have water instead of blood, and require significantly more water to stay hydrated.

  • Slash: -20%
  • Heat: +50%

NOTE: Diona have plantlike organs, allowing chemicals such as weed killer and robust harvest to affect their bodies similar to plants.

Ex: Diona can consume robust harvest as a weaker form of omnizine.

Heart Determines the efficiency of blood pumping. A healthy heart means a healthier body.

Diona Brain The center of self, the most important part of any individual. Determines who inhabits and controls the body. Functionally identical to the other humanoid brains.

Lungs Determine the rate of breathing. Unhealthy lungs may result in the body getting less O2/N2 than it needs.

Diona Stomach Aids in the digestion of foods, liquids, and reagents in the body. Due to its plantlike nature, it can digest fertilizers and weedkillers similar to the ways a plant would. Still capable of metabolizing medicine meant for animals.

Kidneys Filter the vital fluids of any toxins they might contain.

Liver Contains enzymes that aid in certain biological processes.

Diona Eyes Allow for visual information to be extracted from an organism's environment via light. Functionally identical to other humanoid eyeballs.

Moths

Moths, meanwhile, actually are an insectoid species. Their wings allow them greater control in zero gravity than other species, and their natural resistance to cold helps greatly in a space environment. The tradeoff, naturally, is that heat is more dangerous.

Naming Convention: Common, (ex. John Doe)

Heart Determines the efficiency of blood pumping. A healthy heart means a healthier body.

Brain The center of self, the most important part of any individual. Determines who inhabits and controls the body.

Lungs Determines the rate of breathing. Unhealthy lungs may result in the body getting less O2 than it needs.

Moth Stomach Aids in the digestion of cloth and reagents in the body. Finds non-cloth foods repulsive.

Kidneys Filter the vital fluids of any toxins they might contain.

Liver Contains enzymes that aid in certain biological processes.

Vox

Vox are a strange lot, they're raptor-like creatures that can only breathe nitrogen, as oxygen is very hazardous to their health to the point where they take ticking poison damage as long as they're exposed to the air, provided said air has even a trace of oxygen within it. To counter-act this, a Vox must either be in a pure nitrogen-based environment or, more commonly, breathing from a nitrogen tank, one of which is provided to them at the start of each round.

Much like Reptilians, their unarmed attacks deal slashing damage instread of blunt.

Naming Convention: Common, Mono-name with Repetitive Random Syllables (ex. Hirixashahre, Xapikrikrik)
