The Traags are many times larger than the Oms, which scurry over their planet. Despite realizing that the Oms originally came from another world, they don't consider the Oms truly sapient and tend to view them as pests, although many Oms are also kept as pets by Traag children. They also live much longer, and reproduce much slower, than the Oms. Their technology is extremely advanced: they can create objects from scratch, miniaturize objects, and their learning devices allow them to upload knowledge directly into their brains.
