Easily distinguished by their singular eye and brown-green exoskeleton, they are able to crawl using two rows of 6 legs. All diona nymphs have elytra, but only rarely have developed functioning wings. They are able to consume certain vegetable foods via an underdeveloped mouth. They each have two long, thin antennae. The purpose of these appears to relate to receiving and transmitting their inherent language, known in common as "Sylvan". The antennae can transmit Sylvan via high-frequency sound waves, but can also recieve Sylvan transmitted by Reefs via radio waves. Some radio signals can interfere with this, and cause agitation to nearby Dionea. Diona nymphs are some of the most unusual lifeforms in the galaxy, and possess certain bizarre characteristics: 1: They are able to cooperate by forming Diona superorganisms, dubbed 'Dionaforms'. 2: They are able to 'specialize' when forming part of a Dionaform, effectively becoming an organ of that superorganism and in doing so gaining and losing a number of physical and biological features. 3: They are able to survive in the vacuum of space for extended periods. 4: They are able to undergo a process of | '''Count:''' 1 '''Arrangement:''' N/A '''Intelligence:''' Low Human - High Animal '''About:''' Diona nymphs are the singular units of all dionaforms.

Because they are mostly made up of traveler nomads without a homeworld dionae dont have a set government and tend to avoid them because of their belief in unity and equity. | |||

Dionae usually dont participate in the economy unless its to expand their reefs in which case they may trade with nearby ships with stuff they found on their journey or if they are a anthroform that live near other species. | |||
