*Reptiloids: Species such as the [[Drakonea|Dragonkin of Drakonea]] give live birth to neonates capable of crawling and emitting small bursts of flame within days of emergence. | *Reptiloids: Species such as the [[Drakonea|Dragonkin of Drakonea]] give live birth to neonates capable of crawling and emitting small bursts of flame within days of emergence. | ||
*Aquatics: The [[Aquaen]] species of the [[Astralis Nebula (Galaxa)|Astralis Nebula]] give live birth to offspring capable of swimming independently. Neonates have instinctive hunting behaviors and can adapt to the shifting tides of their watery environments. | *Aquatics: The [[Aquaen]] species of the [[Astralis Nebula (Galaxa)|Astralis Nebula]] give live birth to offspring capable of swimming independently.

*Insectoids: Certain insectoid species, like the [[Zytherians]], give live birth to larval forms that mature rapidly, undergoing metamorphosis within days to assume their adult forms. | *Insectoids: Certain insectoid species, like the [[Zytherian|Zytherians]], give live birth to larval forms that mature rapidly, undergoing metamorphosis within days to assume their adult forms. | ||

The level of dependency and cognitive function at birth is heavily influenced by a species' evolutionary history. Sentient species are frequently born immature relative to their adult forms, as this allows for extended periods of learning and social integration within their communities. | The level of dependency and cognitive function at birth is heavily influenced by a species' evolutionary history.
