Koopew (Coupe-ew) are an anthropomorphic species originating from the planet Terrina located within the Solina system. Just like Humans they have two legs, arms, eyes, ears, a head, and a tendency to wear clothes, but that is where many of their biological similarities end. Interestingly they are monotreme. (Mammals that give birth via laying eggs.)

They have two huge fox-like ears on their proportionally larger heads when compared to humans, interestingly these ears mainly point behind them. Instead of having their nose and mouth be separate parts of their body, they have a furry muzzle that has many attributes similar to a beak. Their ‘beaks’ have two nose slits that they can breathe from. Their lower beaks are not unlike a long human jaw with their upper beak being a hard extension of their skull; due to that fact they cannot move it separately from their head, and are hard and bone-like below the upper layer of furry skin. Interestingly they have retractable teeth they can retract and extend from both their jaw and upper beak.

The Koopew mid-body is very human-like outside of their fur. Their short fur can come in virtually any color and shade, though it is uncommon for gray-scale colors (pure white/gray/black) and greater than three colors/shades over their body. Some Koopew’s mid body fur can grow thicker, especially in cold climates. They have three hearts, one located in their upper left chest, one in their lower left chest, and the last one in the middle of their right chest, individually they beat lower than human hearts, but while beating in succession they keep their uniquely magenta blood flowing. Elphe and older ages of Koopew grow white spikes over their elbows, shoulders, heels, and four around the end of their tail. Dragew Koopew develop peach scales over their mid body replacing any fur that was there when they were younger. Only the rare Primal Koopew grow/have wings.

Their hands have three fingers and a thumb, their palms resemble the tough skin found on the paws of many Earthen animals. Their fingers end in a shape resembling a long-nailed human, yet as a solid fur-covered shape; The ends are sharp enough to scratch. They have flexible, long tails with special growths on the end of them hosting one or more spikes. They can use their tail for self defense, though they can also use it as a ‘biological canteen’. They can compress or expand the tail end or ‘Bioteen’ to move liquids in and out through their tail’s main spike. It is surprisingly clean and sanitary instead of the Koopew’s ‘Bioteen’ provided the user makes sure their tail spike is clean, as well as the liquid they contain.

Their legs are of a digitigrade stance with three major segments. Technically their feet are always tip-toeing and bent. Their upper legs are very muscular, allowing them a supernatural ability to jump. Their lower legs are extremely short and are horizontal at rest. Their long foot bridges highly resemble a lower leg, their heels have a paw-pad-esque rough patch of skin. Their soles and toes highly resemble a three toed paw with rough paw-pads on each toe and the sole.

Koopew tend to be fairly picky eaters, namely they do not like eating foods that taste similar to each other in succession, usually within the timespan of a week. An interesting exception to this picky eating habit is seafood. For some reason Koopew find seafood irresistible and can eat it everyday without getting tired of it. (This, as a side effect, makes seafood restaurants a good investment for Koopew population centers for the entrepreneurs out there.) Koopew see no taboo in eating insects and fungi, though nearly all Koopew find eating their own species’ meat, or imitation products as one of the worst sins possible to do.

Koopew have a very good long-term memory allowing them to recall many more things that they’ve learned in the past with more detail and precision, this makes retaining their knowledge easy. Although their short-term memory is a bit weaker than that of a Human, making it harder for them to learn new things.

Popolus, Adult, Koopew tend to feel an incredible urge to serve under the much older and ‘wiser’ Dragew. While outside of their presence they tend to act more freely, the moment they’re in the presence of a Dragew, the Koopew will be much more persuaded to follow their desires.
