The Aeodronian home world has a thick oxygenated atmosphere and a substantial hydrosphere. The planet is a tropical paradise, lush and humid, possessing a variety of flora and fauna that covers 20% of the planet's surface area. Aeodronians live in harmony with their environment, and it is suspected that the salamanders migrated from another world. Scientists theorize that the destruction of their original home world's biospere, coupled with the forced and untimely migration to another planet, caused the Aeodronians to suffer a great technological setback. It is believed to have taken the salamanders thousands of years to reattain the same level of technologyocal development.

The salamanders live in costal cities made of coral outcroppings (reefs) and carry on all industry in environmentally safe factories and other facilities. All food is taken from the natural bounty of the sea. For most materials, sush as metals, alloys, and hi-technology items, they trade with other races and worlds, rather than rape the bosom of their own planet. That which they cannot trade for, they take.

The Aeodronians have become scavengers and pillagers of this galaxy. They abhor the Alliance's method of colonial exploitation, and the salamanders are bitter enemies of its military. There is some hypocrisy in this statement, because salamander's are known to pillage and plunder Alliance worlds. The Aeodronian presence presents a major stategic problem to Galactic Forces operating in this sector. Aeodronian raiding fleets harry Galactic convoys and supply routes, and attack worlds that the Aeodronidans see as being raped of their natural order. In the process of protecting that which they belive to be sacred, the Aeodronians that what they need in the way of goods and meterials. Worlds which may be targets of Aeodronian raids often go out of their way to establish trade relations with these raiders.
