Fraal are a species of the New Hades world.

Quiet and peaceful, the Fraal (pronounced "frahl") appear calm and composed even in the most chaotic situations.

Averaging about 2 meters tall, the fraal are thin humanoids with large eyes; pale, almost luminous skin; and swept-back ears. While many are bald, some have wisps of silver, white, or pale yellow hair atop their large, round heads. Individual fraal can be so thin as to practically appear weightless, but most weigh about 70 kilograms. Even the youngest fraal adults have an ancient, wizened look that can be as intimidating to humans as it is disconcerting.

Fraal are friendly, curious and nomadic by nature. Even though they have established outposts and stations among various sectors of New Hades, they prefer to roam the cosmos on board alien ships. Their knowledge of their original home world is lost in the millennia. Fraal don't understand the concept of controlled space, nations and borders. Their pacifist nature towards sentient species and the technological advancements they offered to each one, earned them a non-aggression pact by all nations and Fraal territories act as a safe haven for everyone.

The only place Fraal can call "home" is the floating city-temple called Lighthouse, a roaming megaship that travels from sector to sector.
