Origins

Like all those surrounding him, from the neck downwards he had a humanlike body (albeit covered in tawny fur). He had wiry limbs and cablelike muscles, which came from the hare DNA his humanoid body was spliced with. All the same, staturewise, he was among the smallest crewmembers aboard The Origin of Species, the interstellar mineral-mining spacecraft where they made their home. He was well aware of the short guy stereotype, that they were quick to anger, and Elder made an effort not to provide evidence to further it. THE UNIVERSE OF SPECIES Elder, a humanoid hare, plays the role of the calm-headed ship's navigator aboard The Origin of Species, an interstellar mineral-mining spacecraft. Among his crew of other animals, they shuttle from planet to planet, pulling in credits, earning a living. Predator and prey work side-by-side in harmony. They are more than crew. They are family. However when they make a life-changing discovery aboard an abandoned space frigate, the future of The Origin and its crew is thrown into question. The implications of which will threaten their place within the universe itself. And test the strength of the crew and their base instincts to their very limits. Fight or flight. Life or death.
