Homebrew Floran Species Details

Plant-based humanoids, they are extremely violent carnivores with no central government or power structure, split into numerous tribes spread across the universe, each led by a Greenfinger. Though they are biologically a single-sex race, they may adapt sexually dimorphic physical traits and male/female identities if they so choose. Their speech is often simplistic, and they tend to hisss their sibilantsss. Their primary drives are hunting, acquiring trophies, fighting, eating meat, and more hunting. It is speculated that their general casual view towards killing and consuming other intelligent species stems from not viewing "meat" as "alive" in the same sense they are. As the Floran spread throughout the galaxy however, more and more individuals are recognizing a need to integrate, make friends, and maybe not stab anyone that slightly inconveniences them.

A relatively young race, they have primitive technology but are incredibly adept at scavenging and -thanks to the Greenfingers' unique gifts- reverse-engineering other races' tech, much to the universes chagrin.

They have a long and ugly history with the Hylotl, as the two races were effectively at war with each other for years. This culminated in a massive Floran invasion that drove the Hylotl under the oceans. While open hostilities have ceased and things have been peaceful for generations, both races harbor deep-rooted resentment towards the other. The Hylotl are very passive-aggressively condescending in their disdain for the Floran, where the Floran are just openly and bluntly insulting to the Hylotl.

Languages

You can speak Floran and common, due to their lack of enthusiasm for literature. However, some Florans, mostly Greenfingers, are able to read and write Floran and common. The more adventurous kinds have decided to learn another language, but these are few and far between. Excluding the most learned of Florans, the race as a whole tends to hiss their Sibilantssss.

Vulnerability

Due to their Floral Bodies, Florans are flammable and will take extra damage from fire. 2x Fire damage and their bodies are susceptible to ignition.

Chloroplasts

Because Florans are themselves Plants, they feature many of the biological components of their less intelligent brethren. One of these factors is the Chloroplasts hidden deep within their cells. These allow for Photosynthesis and mean that Florans can regenerate almost any wound if provided sufficient UV radiation. 

Savage

The Entire Race of the Florans are genetically attuned to the thrill of the Hunt, and sometimes they can get a little carried away
