Also, sandwich technology, do the blue spess elves have it, or is this something else humans can tech trade? [/tongueInCheek]
Cheese, yogurt and all other dairy products made from milk, oddly enough. Here I do not remember whether Deinar Miros give milk, but meat is accurately. It seems not.

The idea of a sandwich is clearly not require a doctorate, so as Loroi obviously have all the components such as: bread (or its analogues), meat (optional), some edible plants - I would say that for ~ 4000 years at least to someone it had to come up with the idea to eat it all together, rather than individually. Even for such "creative" guys like Loroi is too long to be :D

Some Soia-liron livestock do give milk, but the Loroi haven't utilized them in the same way that humans have.

Can't say much more than this at present. ;)

No milk or cheese? No yogurt, Greek or otherwise? No ice cream?!

I feel sorry for them; on the other hand, that's something else to augment the kitten-based bargaining position.


What about sandwiches? Surely they've invented sliced bread. Or pitas, tortillas, or sommat along those lines, right?

Well, ice cream, in principle, can be done not only milk, but a whole class of products from milk for Loroi obviously unknown. On the other hand, I think that idea an eating frozen cocktail of various ingredients will seem at least a little strange for Loroi ;) Perhaps, many of them...

No ice cream? :shock: We must equip ships for long range travel to deliver this war critical material to the heroines on the front lines! :P

Well, SOMETHING'S gotta provide milk for the kids once their warrior moms give birth and head straight(ish) back to the front lines, right? No?

"So, are you telling me that world is filled with eager almost-loroi males, and that (lick lips) ice cream and chocolate food?"

I can imagine Earth, in time, will become a very popular tourist destination for Loroi :lol:

One thing that people here haven't mentioned yet is the full meaning of Alexander Jardin.

The full meaning of Alexander is 'Guardian of Men' so Alexander Jardin doesn't just mean Guardian of the Garden but 'Guardian of the Male Garden'.

Quick question; do Loroi suffer from any evolutionary garbage health problems like we humans do?

Wisdom teeth, pilodinal cysts, these kind of things.

Loroi have fewer such problems than humans do.

I guess Soian lifeforms, having been artificially engineered, carry far less garbage in their genetic code.

I would say that it depends, the Early Loroi were most certainly prototypes since they don't have the trademarked 8 fingers in total that the other Soia Liron species have, as a prototype they were bound to have leftover glitches that would be ironed out later.

Fully streamlined products however should have almost no such problems.

Are any of these problems similar by any chance?

I would find it somewhat funny if a Loroi and a Human both suffered from a bad case of wisdom teeth and went to the doctor at the same time.

Assuming, if Loroi created artificially on the basis of the other species (humans, lol), on the one hand, were to inherit some signs of the species-prototype, as: anthropometry, the structural features of certain organs and body parts (structure of eyes, skeleton, in general terms, the structure may also CNS), on the other hand - since they are substantially in terms of genetics "younger", they must carry their genetic minimum number of mutations, that genetic garbage. But this applies to Loroi in the first centuries of their existence. At the moment, it's been about 300k years since. In evolutionary terms it is small, but it is enough time for the formation of some of the changes, even in a stable environment. It is quite enough to scrape up a particular genetic baggage, in addition to the original genome.

Of course, all of the above makes sense, if not the creators gave Loroi a highly effective mechanism for "repair" and the correction of the genome, which will minimize the random mutations.

Ice cream doesn't have to be milk-based: it can in fact be ice-based (e.g. Sorbet), or based on something thicker like custard or mousse, or be based on a oil-water mixture like mellorine is. The only real restriction is that to truely be an ice-cream analogue it needs to be sweet, and formed by stirring a liquid while freezing it.

Probably the Loroi had a snow-based version (I believe that both the Romans and the Aztecs had such) flavored with fruit or other juices (such as an edible & sweet tree sap).
