Apids are a race of bipedal bees from the jungle planet of Saltu. Due to their large bodies, they have lost the ability to fly, but can dash short distances.

== History ==

Apids are a very recently discovered race. The first contact with them comes from a botanical NT expedition to a jungle-covered planet. They are seemingly related to space bees, but a test of their genome has shown that they bear no real biological resemblance to species used aboard SS13, and the race naming is simply a coincidence due to the first contact.

Apid society was very primitive, with almost no technological advancement, until encountered by this botanical expedition. This contact, happening well after the Species Equality Act was passed, gave Nanotrasen the opportunity to educate this species and integrate them into the workforce. Today, you can find them working various jobs all around Nanotrasen, and even aboard the top-secret Space Station 13.

''Expedition Log A-001-FC...''

NT expedition 113, a forward team of biologists and botanists sent to planet 2491 TR13 in the year 2506, discovered a sentient race. This race, looking outwardly similar to apids in-use on space stations, was brought in forcefully by an ERT to be tested more thoroughly. This new information showed a very close common ancestor with space bees (Apis locus), though how this is possible on a completely untouched planet is as-of-now unknown. It seems that these Apids also share a few common traits with Apis locus, one of which being a colonial social structure with a central ruler. From rudimentary translations of Apidite, only one colony of Apids exists on this planet, with a ruler commonly titled “The Great Queen”. Recordings from recon missions taking place near Apid settlements have been translated and depict this “queen” being a sort of deity to the Apids, seemingly filling nearly all needs of Apid society. Exploration of the planet heading in the direction of the queen has been met with strangely hostile flora, fauna, and Apids, forcing an emergency evacuation.

== Gameplay ==
Apids are an optional playable race. They attack with slashes from their stingers, but don’t deal any extra damage. They’re able to dash a short distance using their wings and can craft [[Guide to food and drinks#Honeycomb|honeycombs]] using sugar. These honeycombs can be broken into [[Guide to construction#Wax|wax]], used to make [[Guide to construction#Wax|wax floortiles]]. However, they take more burn, toxin, and stamina damage, as well as passing out in the cold and when exposed to smoke.

Random names for Apids always have the first name starting with a “B,” and the last names seem to be many different flower types.

Note that as an Apid, the AI does not consider you human and is not obligated to listen to you and an Asimov AI will often respond lethally should they find you harming a human, however, this also means the AI can allow you to put yourself into harm's way in a positive manner, such as opening an airlock exposed to space to save someone.

You can speak in Apidite, a language understood by Apids (as well as silicons and the Curator) by using the language menu. To speak on the radio in Apidite, use the radio code while speaking the language.

 Apid society was somewhat primitive, with having only just taken off to expand throughout their solar system.

Eventually their inclusion in the Federation became a reality however their participation is minimal due to their societal structure though rarely a liason can be seen aboard a Nanotrasen vessel.

		+	Apid names will almost always start with the letter “B” and be followed by a last name resembling if not the scientific name of some kind of flower.
		+
		+	Almost every single Apid found in service of Whiterapids and/or Nanotrasen are FEMALE warriors. It is extraordinarily rare to see any other kind of Apid outside of their home system, especially males. All Apids come from Saltu and none are born elsewhere in the galaxy.
		+
		+	All Apids are found in some department that requires combat or violence, such as Pilot, Muni Techs, Security Officers, or Military Police. If a worker or drone Apid somehow ends up aboard a Nanotrasen vessel, they’ll always be found at a desk job or service job like Chef, ATC, Cargo Tech, Botanist, or Janitor.
		+
		+	Apids are usually quick to aggression but not anger. This means having no issue pushing others out of their way, taking what they need without asking, Being extraordinarily productive without direction and obeying orders to their letter in the most efficient and direct manner. Despite this behavior, they tend to be curt and to the point, and mild mannered. They rarely rise to anger but instead simply work around or through those that get in their way.
