HISTORY: The Phrenot people have only involved themselves with the rest of the Galaxy in the last few decades. Primarily a peaceful people, the Phrenot had never warred among themselves on their home planet. The only threats they had ever faced were natural predators (in the early stages of their evolution) and, most recently, visitors from other worlds. Luckily, though, their home planet is located on the outmost part of the galaxy, so they do not fear invasion on a large scale.
FUN FACT: the ridge-like growths on the backs of Phrenots heads are air pouches originally evolved to aid in underwater hunting (as Phrenots are closely related to amphibians).
