The Blemmyae are a quirky, unusual race. it's hard to consider what kind of circumstances would cause a species to evolve without a head but it's actually quite simple: The dominant species of predator on their home sphere brain-eating cephalopods. This new evolutionary trait does have it's downsides though, firstly the blemmyae have a distinct lack of intelligence or higher cognitive function, secondly with their brains being in such proximity to the rest of their organs they are quickly overwhelmed by adrenaline and other bodily hormones this has given them a kind of "brutish" personality something akin to orkish just with alot more useage of the words Dude, Bro, Bruh, Brah, etc;. The Blemmyae like two things food and muscles, their bodies are status symbols to them, the more impressive a blemmyae is in muscle mass, the more celebrated they are as individuals and their love of food is prolific they are notorious gluttons and you should probably be prepared with a feast of legendary proportions.
