Gotti

The Gotti are a humanoid race formerly hailing from the planet Deisnutz, located in the north of the main galaxy of the Unending Universe.

Description
Gotti are humanoid, and like most humans their skin tone can vary wildly. However, most of them possess a pronounced snout and large teeth which often cannot fit in their mouth. This is because their teeth give them the ability of electroreception, allowing them to detect enemies purely by their electrical impulses. In spite of this, most Gotti are poorly suited for combat, as they possess lanky builds with low muscle mass. It was not until the invention of firearms that the Gotti gained the ability to defend themselves from outside threats.

Gotti love playing pranks, especially on telephones or other indirect means of communication. They are also quickly sidetracked; It is almost impossible to have a serious conversation with a Gotti because they constantly bring their homeworld, Deisnutz, into the conversation. Many galactic sociologists believe this to be a form of collective PTSD which exists on a societal level within the Gotti community, as a direct result of the loss of their home planet.

History
Originally a proud merchant race, Deisnutz's location at a galactic crossroads meant many Gotti were involved in the interplanetary cargo transportation business, colloquially referred to as "delivering the mail". In fact, the sight of huge cargo containers setting down on Deisnutz's surface became an image so heavily ingrained in Gotti culture that children would gather with excitement to see what had "come in the mail" whenever a new container arrived. However, all this ended when something came in the mail that they weren't expecting - Ben Garrison. He began tearing a warpath across Deisnutz, wiping out all who got in his path, and eventually the Gotti were driven from their ancestral homeworld, becoming a refugee race.

After this, some of the surviving Gotti relocated to Earth, blending in well with the local populations due to their human-like appearance and manner. However, most were drawn in by the teachings of a Gotti named Goteem Shiv, who declared himself Emperor of the Gotti civilization and relocated the remaining population to planet Byron, forming one of the first clans on the alien world. Taking the name of an ancient native tribe which once inhabited the planet, the Gotti formed the Tesari clan, almost immediately being drawn into border conflicts with many other colonists who had arrived at the same time. After the borders had been more-or-less permanently decided, the Tesari clan occupied much of the northern continent of the planet. For the first time in over a century, the Gotti had gotti a place to call their own.
