I notice no one voted Financial, no mushroom Ferengis then?
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

No one voted "spiritual", either.

It would seem like they are Imperialistic and Protective with the side traits being Expansive and Creative.

Sounds like the Roman Republic or maybe the Edo period of Japan.

Minus the creative and add charismatic and you've got yourself a super power waiting to be born. Though creative doesn't go against that either.

But for there to be two recessive traits they'd have to tie. Which might be a little difficult to have happen.

None. They always surrender right before they finish the job and never tell you why.

Whoever voted Stoners should be tied to a Galaxy-Class bridge console and flown into a rough patch of space.

Maybe they naturally produce psilocybin internally. :lol:

I went with Industrious and Protective. As decay-eating critters, they know they have to keep a certain amount of territory so they can survive.

Industrious seemed lke a good idea, as it would allow them to not only think up technology, but also apply it practically.

Vote is ending tomorrow / today depending on what time zone you're in. Make sure to change your vote to upset what it'll end up as in the 11th hour.

I'm pretty sure I know what I'll do next. Leaning towards level of technology or type of power next. I'll probably wait to decide until I hit the 'create a new thread' button :P

Sounds good. Though, by the looks, we'll still have two primary traits and two secondary traits.
