The Trepedor are an avianoid race and one of The Nine Ancient Races. They are heron like in appearance and are both adept fliers and pilots, but also skilled hunters, and wise warriors, a necessary trait as their republic borders up against the Tragarian Empire. They are also very circumspect, astute, and thoughtful in all that they say and do. And, while they are very similar in form to a Stork, one should not take them for granted, as they're a very skillful space faring race, and that's no small feat given their physical form. Also, just like with the G'Fondo'Nah, they possess finger like appendages near the ends of their wings that they can use to manipulate technology, objects, and so on.
The Trepedor are also a very hyper intelligent species, despite their seemingly small brains. It is not widely understood as to how such a thing is possible. However, if one were to look at the biology of the Trepedor, they would realize that this is made possible because a Trepedor actually has three brains. The one in their head, which is about the size of a muskmelon, is the primary seat of their intelligence. There is a second brain lobe in the upper part of their chest that handles life functions, such as digestion, breathing, and such. This is very similar in function to the cerebellum in humans, and controls primary life functions such as breathing. The third, which sits directly below the second, and is somewhat orb shaped, manages body muscular movements. The way this works is that the main brain in their heads handles sight, smell, taste, hearing and their core intelligence functions, as well as acts as a type of avionics package.
The job of managing the sensation of touch is divided up between the three brains, meaning that the primary brain only knows about things that happen in the purview of the other two brains if they decide to report this to it. Otherwise they handle all reactions and interactions to input stimuli on their own. The primary brain only receives direct input from touch for areas racing from the neck, up through the head. And, even though these three brains are separate, they work together flawlessly as a team, making the mental processing capacity of a typical Trepedor equal to, or sometimes superior to the human brain. The combined mass of teh three brains also adds up to roughly the same volume as a human brain.
