	The Supox, like Earth plants, extract water and nutrients through soil with their roots (though, unlike Earth plants, they are capable of fixing nitrogen on their own). They by far gain most of their energy through photosynthesis of ambient gases into sugars using solar radiation, and have evolved their radiation-detecting senses to the point that they compare their deeply held aesthetic perceptions of the energy gained from different wavelengths of light to the human ability to taste food. Nonetheless they can gain nutrition from other sources. They have been known to consume small portions of animal flesh in order to survive, similarly to the Utricularia bladderworts they named themselves after. The primary way their species gained dominance on Vlik was by intelligently devising various means of biological symbiosis with various other plant and animal life forms, providing reproductive assistance in exchange for nutrition.

	When The Captain restored the [[Utwig]]'s [[Ultron]], the Utwig valiantly led the charge to attack the [[Kohr-Ah]] and delay the outcome of the [[Doctrinal Conflict]], calling their Supox allies to assist them. The weaker Supox military took grievous initial losses in this combat, but Utwig strategists soon learned how to use the Utwig's superior defensive capabilities to compensate for the weaknesses of the delicate Supox [[Blade]] ships, and use the Supox ships' superior speed and manueverability to strike where the Utwig could not. The Supox forces thus became a critical factor in delaying the Kohr-Ah victory and allowing the New Alliance to complete their desperate plan to destroy the [[Sa-Matra]]. Though their contribution here as elsewhere is often overshadowed by that of the Utwig, they nonetheless deserve the galaxy's thanks.

	During their early days of space travel the Supox had conscientiously mapped their [[sphere of influence]], preferring however the planetary systems with a star closer to the wavelength of their own star, Root — green, yellow, blue and white stars. However, they were uncertain about the relative importance of the information they discovered; trying to mimic the value systems of their Utwig benefactors, they allowed the Utwig's knowledge base to form the foundation of their culture and acted primarily as secondary implementers of the Utwig's cultural agenda. They decided to keep most of the scientific and astronomical knowledge they had acquired (such as the [[firefalls of Nalnar]] and the [[servants of Mali]]) to themselves, deeming it irrelevant to the concerns of a proper spacefaring civilization. This began to change in their relationship with the more curious Humans; The Captain himself found Supox records invaluable in his search for the [[Rainbow Worlds]].

	While the Utwig were incapacitated by the loss of the Ultron, the Supox were hailed by the [[Humans]] of the [[New Alliance of Free Stars]] led by [[The Captain]], with which they soon became friends (and gave them the broken Ultron in the case that they would succeed to repair it). The initial meeting was perplexing to The Captain, who was unfamiliar with the Supox custom of imitating others — ~~sacrificing~~, for example, the deep meaning of the name of their homeworld, Vlik ("Perfectly Good and Nutritious Dirt") with the name of the Humans' planet, Earth.
