data = "Almost nothing is known about the Vox by the galaxy at large, and the Vox would prefer it remain that way \
for as long as possible. What little is known has largely been pieced together from spacer's tales and security \
after-action reports from encounters with the elusive raptor-like creatures. If the TSCs have any exciting data \
from biopsy or autopsy examinations on Vox or Vox remains, they're not sharing them with everyone else. \
<br><br>\
Vox are an infrequent sight in civilized space, as the species is highly insular. The only individuals typically \
seen leaving the relative safety and isolation of their kin are those who have been cast out for committing some \
crime against other Vox, and these outcasts sometimes seek employment within the peripheries of civilized space \
in an effort to simply survive; without a means of acquiring fresh phoron for respiration, a lone vox is liable \
to suffocate within a matter of weeks at most.\
<br><br>\
The marginally more common type of vox one will encounter are the marauders. These opportunistic vox prey on poorly \
guarded civilian shipping and facilities, either to steal precious items or the phoron they're holding. After all \
as far as the Vox are concerned, only Vox matter, and only Vox matters matter."

data = "The Greys are a relatively new addition to the galactic stage, having only truly made their presence known \
over the course of the past few decades. This, combined with their appearance and seemingly engineered biology \
has lead to a number of conspiracy theories and wild ideas about their true origins, with one of the most common \
proposing that they are extragalactic refugees who have somehow crossed the great divide between their galaxy \
and our own to hide from some greater threat. \
<br><br>\
Theorizing aside, they're perhaps best known for their natural \'telepathic\' abilities, their violent reaction to water \
(owing to their salt-heavy biology their cells rapidly undergo cytolysis when exposed to water, which can easily be fatal) \
and their apparent knack for research and development. The TSCs have been quick to court the favor of those that leave the \
Grey \'homeworld\' of Mauna-b, offering them almost uncharacteristically generous employment packages within administrative \
and research departments at facilities across civilized space. For their part the Grey seem to be integrating well, despite \
occasional difficulties with the lower levels of oxygen present outside of their favored ships and habitats."
