+## Overview 
+
+This design document covers Solari as a round-start
+species. Solari are a humanoid race that is perpetually on fire which is
+the focus point of most of their mechanics. It is a race intended to be
+a bit more difficult similarly to vox. Based on Novakids from starbound.
+
+## Background
+
+Solari are based upon the idea of SS13s plasma people but on fire. They heil from the suns of space and are a species of guardians that overlook and try to keep the peace among 
+galaxies. However, they've seen  the chaos around the galaxy and have decided to help, whether people like it or not.
+
+## Features/Design
+
+The Solari are humanoid and wear the standard clothing with no noticeable features. They are visually much brighter 
+slime people and their unique lack of a face makes them stand out. They should visbily look like they are actively 
+ablaze.
+## Core Visual Elements
+
+Solari are humanoid species that have thick outlines and lighter insides, think glowsticks. They have a symbol instead 
+of their face, completely lacking most facial features in favor of it. They still have hair, however it is made of the 
+same stuff as their bodies and is mostly used for style. They passively light up the rooms they are in with the 
+same color as their body.
+
+## Naming Convention
+
+Solari naming conventions are pretty flexible. Their name should contain
+a reference to chemistry and or physics, words related to light work
+nicely for example.
+
+Some examples of Solari names include: Hannah Hexafluorine, Argon John,
+Luna Sol, Fred Frezon, Nancy Neutron etc.
+
+## Features Of The Species
+
+
+
+### Blood is fuel.
+The Solari replenish blood differently to other races. Rather than using blood packs and saline, Solari instead use fuel. 
+When Solari eat they actively replenish their blood supply. Overtime this fuel will slowly deplenish, Solari can refuel
+by eating certain items. Food > Blood > Fuel. Solari will only begin to take blood loss damage when their fuel hits 0. 
+Instead of taking the oxygen damage it will instead be cold damage. Their blood/fuel would be composed of a mixture of 
+oxygen and plasma that can be put into a centrifuged to extract these chemicals. Splashing or soaking in water should 
+deminish some of the solaris fuel however they can still drink it as their core is hot enough to process the liquid as
+gas.
+
+
+### On Fire!
+
+The Solari are constantly on fire and should have gameplay elements that reflect this. Solari would automatically light
+gas fires in the rooms their in, think walking lighters. Players could interact with them whilst holding a cigarette to
+light it. Their punches, instead of dealing brute would deal heat damage instead and could be used to cauterize their 
+wounds to prevent further blood oss which is intended to be the main killer of Solari. Solari could use their bare hands
+to do really terrible welds, think cow tools only really usable in desperate times. 
+
+### Temperature changes
+Solari are hot and their temperature resistances and weakness should be different to normal humans. It'd take much 
+longer for them to reach a state of overheating, this could help them save other players during gas fires that they 
+themselves probably lit. On the opposite spectrum cold damage should be a brutal weakness to Solari. It should hurt like
+hell and Solari should avoid it at all costs.
+
+### Hardsuits
+Hardsuits/softsuits will prevent the solaris fire mechanics. This is to allow them to still be able to interact with 
+particularly hazardous departments without setting a gas fire or being too much of a problem. They will still need to 
+take off the suit to refuel, however.
