	• Cyrvan use a unified credit system, name starting with "Ies". Regarded as hard to pronounce for Terrans (or at least for JGASF pilot [[Wings of Dawn Characters#Misuzu\|Misuzu Stella ]]). Among Terrans it's usually just called Cyrvan Credits (or short CC) and is currently slightly below the Terran UC in value, even after the damage the Terran economy took after the Hertak invasion.

	• While it is uncommon, the CSA does not prohibit Terrans to enlist into their ranks. The majority of the Terrans in the CSA are armed security guards onboard ships or are stationed planetside. Due to the combination of few Cyrvans willing to and few Terrans being recruited into the CSA, their jobs are well-paid.

	• The appearance of Cyrvan-Terran hybrids depends of the gender of the parents. With a Cyrvan mother the persons appearance is almost indistinguishable from a pure Cyrvan. Hybrids with a Terran mother on the other hand posses looks that carry elements of both species equally, like shorter, but still pointed ears for example, much like the fictional "half-elfs" from ancient Terran fantasy novels.[http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=71527.msg1555244#msg1555244]		• The appearance of Cyrvan-Terran hybrids depends of the gender of the parents.

			• As far as physical abilities go, Hybrids seem to be on par with Cyrvans in every espect except physical strength, were they are slightly above Cyrvan average values.[http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=71527.msg1555383#msg1555383]

			• In terms of piloting skills the tested Hyrids all scorced a bit below the Cyrvan average, which still puts them above Terran pilots. Due to the small number of such people being tested, it's too early to draw any conclusions, since it could just be that the individuals in question didn't have a high aptitude for flying, rather than their racial abilities being a hinderance.[http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=71527.msg1555383#msg1555383]

	• Some Cyrvans have the ability to perceive glimpses of the future. While the ability is not exclusive to the "winged ones", roughly 40% of them have this ability to some degree. For some of those gifted individuals, this manifests in the ability to look into the immediate future at will, while others have vague premonitions in their dreams. Past experience has shown that the future is not set in stone and that spontaneous individuals are especially hard to predict.
