Muzmi

The Muzmis are a patriarchal species located on the planet of Muzm in the Muzmi System. Muzmis are identified by their large cheeks, green skin, and tremendously long necks that gradually extend upon speaking. Because of the perceived high risk of neck fractures and consequentially death, Muzmis are referred to as "the quiet species", and are stereotyped as being non-talkative and solitary. On the contrary, Muzmis tend to be very social creatures and have vertebrae that are both firmer than any Earth-based creature's spines, and considerably more elastic. Some talkative Muzmis are known to have grown to nearly sixteen thousand feet, though this is rare, and deaths caused in such instances are usually by air-based vehicles such as planes or shuttles.
