Phazon. Dear god I want to get rid of this. "Phazon is canon" was funny exactly once. It either needs to be removed, or replaced with a plausible alternative.
Second is changes to the avali. First off, being nomadic and having a supercomputer capable of calculating everything sent to it instantly are practically mutual exclusives. One needs to go and I know which one you all will pick.
Second, the augmented reality is over-powered. It can completely simulate a situation, any situation, with little cost. Full sensory augmentation needs to have massive issues attached or AR is going down the tube with it.
Third, they need an outset as a faction. The Hylotl Empire are tech nerds who want to create a technology nirvana, Kineptics just want monastery-like peace and isolation for themselves, the United Worlds want to be the betterment of the minor races... what outset should the avali have? Keep in mind this will change how they act.
-i forgot it existed more than once.
-Not necessarily exclusive to one another. They are nomadic, yes...but not on the home planet. Avali off the home world are nomadic and move from place to place (usually; some more permanent settlements may exist) whereas Avali on the home world...don't migrate a lot. The home planet is also probably where that AI is housed, as well.
-For one thing, it's not easily used by other races. At all. Another possible issue is that excessive use makes it impossible to tell real life from AR, or possibly getting mentally "hacked"/getting a virus of some sort in the neural jack. And reducing how much it can simulate would make sense, too. Make it more like a not-shit Google glass (Projects computer stuff into your mind which you can interact with, but can't go farther past that without causing stress by overwriting so much sensory info) and that fixes that issue.
-Idk what to do with this. they're new to space travel, and most Avali seen by other races in their "space" are merchants selling wares, or diplomats wishing to open up peaceful relations maybe?
