Races in the universe of the Imperial Republic

Humans are the most dominate race within the universe of the Imperial Republic, but there are also A.I.'s (artificial intelligences) that occupy both stationary computer systems and mobile robot bodies (and sometimes switch between the two).

There are also chimeras (animal-human hybrids): Aslan (human-lion hybrids), Centaurs (human-horse hybrids), Ratlings (human-rodent hybrids), Avians (human-bird hybrids), Canines (human-dog hybrids), and Felines (human-cat hybrids).

Most humans and virtually all chimeras reproduce by cloning.
