The Belza use a form of LIDAR in order to see the world. As clouds, this gives them the appearance of will o' wisps. In suits, it gives the viewing plate the visage of glowing eyes. | The Belza use a form of LIDAR in order to see the world. As clouds, this gives them the appearance of will o' wisps.

+ | * //Vision// - As mentioned above, Belza use a form of LIDAR to see, which allows them a very fine vision but sacrifices a lot of the nuance that one might get from a regular, light-accepting eyeball. | ||
+ | * //Taste// - Belza, being composed of particulate matter, have a very particular sense of taste. Meaning, if something is impure in their very limited diet, they will know. | ||

Belza don't have brains in the traditional sense - they effectively are brains. But, their complex nature allows them to interface with electronics in their cloud form, allowing them some form of flexibility. | Belza don't have brains in the traditional sense - they effectively are brains.

+ | Belza don't necessarily shun strangers, but they interact with a polite aloofness with most of them. Even the more eccentric ones seem more canned in their expressions - they might might sound like a character directed by a [[https:// | ||
==With Familiar== | ==With Familiar== | ||

+ | ===Magic=== | ||
+ | Belza, being an artificial species, have no tether to the magical fold, but they also have no interest in it. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Psionics=== | ||
+ | The Belzans often enjoy an innate (but weak) psionic prowess by using it to Construct things, rather than using it as a mind to mind force or some astral wind technique. They don't hesitate to use it to repair chinks in their armor, and many of their suits components are insulated with psi-layers. It takes them a long time, but their craftsmanship is excellent due to a forced attention to detail. | ||
