(posting for safety reasons. I had 99% finished the redux app for the Coraeites, and then a parent decided to close all of my tabs when I was gone, deleting my progress ;_;
Holy begeezuz, I haven't written that much since I had to write an essay with a paragraph length minimum!
Once again, this is not finished! As you can see several fields are incomplete! Also, these were created BEFORE Undertale and Sans came out, I SWEAR!

Coraeites have an affinity for navigational equipment, and therefore may never leave the navigator's chair (however cruel it may seem), but, in the unlikely event that they DO escape the vicinity of the ship they're crew for, they may be found working as bartenders, accountants, shopkeepers, anyone whom has to patiently listen to someone else talk, while being the one person who's always on their side, no matter what. Coraeites may be inept when it comes to The emotions of other species, but they are always good listeners, and can usually pick up on what words of encouragement would work the best.

Being the massive dorks they are, Coraeites rarely call it a day until at least one PRANK has been pulled. The rest of the time will be filled with usually-insufferable puns. (I created this species before Undertale and Sans existed I SWEAR) Once you manage to dig past the horrible puns, their dorkiness levels just keep rising, as they're also usually techies as well. Discussing Space Star Trek or Space Star Wars around them will NOT go unnoticed, and you may die of sanity loss when they begin excitedly explaining their favorite parts of the movies and shows.
> Dislikes
Believe it or not, this (totally not) Gary sue of a species does have some distastes. For one, calling out and insulting their unbearable puns really hits them where it hurts, along with unfavorably reacting to pranks. They get really protective over their likes, whatever those may be. They also dislike emotionally tense situations, because, as it turns out, not all problems can be solved via puns and pranks. Their main coping mechanism is laughing things off.
> Common attack pattern (Should be like a sentence)
While usually trying to avoid fatal conflicts, Coraeites will usually try to flee conflicts without another thought, usually at the expense of their crewmembers. If fleeing is not an option, however, they will attempt to rely on sharp claws and/or mid-ranged weaponry to defend themselves.
> Height (in feet because God knows why)
Similar to most species, Coraeites' heights differ from individual to individual, but they will usually be around 3-5 feet tall, not much more variance.
> A Good, bad and neutral trait from the trait dex
[Jokester] (may also be [dirty memer])
[color blind]
[uncontrollable mouth] usually, but differs widely.
And also the longest thing needed.

Before Coraeites had FTL travel, they were bound to their star cluster. Once FTL travel and the god-based ship system was essentially forced upon them, they pretty much stopped manufacturing ships.
NEW/OLD
Physical Description-
Coraeites are commonly described as a cross between a spider and a no-tail (for lack of a more /generic/ humanoid thing), but are more comparable to centaurs than anything. They have a spider's lower body, while having a spider-like, upright upper body.
They have four sets of limbs, three for walking and one for interacting. They also have multiple sets of eyes. One complex set, and four simple eyes, placed in a half-right around each complex eye. "Ö" used as an emoji eye is very relatable to them.
Personality & Traits:
Coraeites may seem like little rascals, deserving of some form of respect, they are actually huge dorks. As in, if someone cracks a joke in their presence, they'll make it their sworn duty to hammer the offender with at least one pun of the same topic and caliber. That is, if they're not in the mood to pull a prank. These jokesters have a keen eye for the humorously adept, and will seek out to make anyone laugh, grin, chuckle, or moan.
To be honest, however, their punny attitude is merely a coping mechanism, as Coraeites, like some exotic species, simply can't understand or feel most negative emotions. They'll be the giggle at a funeral, if only to escape the dread and sadness, and to help others escape it too. You could consider it their unconscious duty to cleanse the universe of sorrow, guilt, and dread.
History:
Coraeites have struggled through little, and have been quick to establish peace before war, going to off lengths to avoid unnecessary loss and stress. When they discovered space travel, the obligatory space race was held mostly "to speed up the rate at which out technology enhances. War may be no fun, but competition helps us survive." -probably the Coraeite president.
Only a few hundred years after discovering space, space discovered them. By that, I mean a Notail ship got stranded in the Coraeite star cluster. The advanced technology on the ship and the Notail suppression caused virtually all Coraite ships to disappear or become antique, and production stopped. Coraeites were taken advantage of, as the stranded Notail ship wasn't necessarily legal, and essentially locked in the colorless navigator's room. As such, the color-specific cones in Coraeite eyes were lost due to genetic drift, and they became colorblind.
