 The Farscape Encyclopedia - Scorpius
Bio: Scorpius was born to Rylani Jeema Dellos, a Sebacean woman who was abducted by Scarrans and raped by Wolesh, a soldier-caste Scarran male.
She tried to destroy his Sebacean "weaknesses," such as his susceptibility to heat.
Scarrans thrive on heat and create mass amounts of it within their bodies, but Sebaceans are especially reactive to high temperatures and suffer from heat delirium with it.

 Languages
The [r] sound is a retroflex or American R, rather than a Spanish or Italian trilled R or a French uvular R. As in British, Australian, and Eastern American dialects, the R is mostly silent after a vowel and tends to lengthen the vowel.
Sebacean probably doesn’t have the [œ, ø] sound, but since it has AE, the letters OE probably occur, and may be pronounced like ay or eh or ee.
Sebacean may use an alphabet, a syllabary, ideograms, or a mixture of these.

            Sebaceans are a near-human species with several differences, they live a lot longer than humans, well over 100 years, and have differences in their internal organs, eg they have a paraphoral nerve that is responsible for filtering waste from the body in much the same way as a human liver.
Sebacean culture is based around their military force called the Peacekeepers, Peacekeepers are Sebacean, but not all Sebaceans are Peacekeepers.
Sebaceans call this the Living Death, and will prepare using cooling suits if they are aware that the temperature will be dangerously high.

It could be that, through genetic tampering, Sebaceans have a compromised thermostatic setpoint system, thus putting them in danger when external temperatures reach a certain threshold beyond their acceptable range (which seems to be more narrow than the human's).
Obviously Sebaceans sweat, but they're probably supposed to be lacking something that their human ancestors had that also aids in thermoregulation.
Sebaceans have all these imporvements that we don't have but have other bad things such as heat delirium, the paraphoral nerve and thigs that screwe them up easily.

The Sebaceans are a fictional alien race from the Farscape universe.
Sebaceans are physically similar to humans, with the exception of various internal differences (see paraphoral nerve).
Within the Sebacean subgroup that make up the Peacekeepers, this is counterbalanced by an extreme sensitivity to heat as Sebaceans lack the gland which regulates their body temperature under these conditions.

 StarScape Races
Most pure Sebaceans are involved in the Peacekeeper regime in one way or another – and like to pretend that countless Sebacean offshoot races don’t exist.
Traskans diverge from a Sebacean appearance in several key ways: their skin is tinged green, their ears are large, and they have a third eye in the middle of their foreheads.
They resemble male Sebaceans for the most part, but their race is androgynous so females also appear to be male.

Second, Sebaceans are encouraged to "recreate" with one another as often as they want\can, pretty much, to "relieve tensions".
Fourth, even though Sebaceans heal really quickly and all that, giving birth in the middle of a fight (though I honestly can't see John and Aeryn's child coming to the world any other way, or Aeryn becoming a mother in any other way), is probably not the best way to go about it.
Adaptation might have been due to the fact that sebaceans had no ancestral homeworld, (why they were chosen) and spent the bulk of their lives between the stars on command carriers and such.

 Sebaceans homeworld [Archive] - Frell Me Dead
Anyway, on one hand you can say "Earth" is the Sebacean original planet but, on the other hand you can say that their planet was the Sebacean's origional planet since Sebaceans were made on his planet and not made on Earth.
She does say something about the Sebacean female can carry a stasis for up to 7 cycles before triggering gestation or something to that effect.
Since we find out in PK wars that Sebaceans came from earth and that they were genetically modified by the Elions to become what they are now, I suppose the "stasis thing" could have been built into PK females - but I still don't like it particular solution to fertility.

As his former nurse, Lalan already knew that Scorpius received Sebacean gene-therapy at regular intervals, and suspected it was for psychological as well as physical reasons.
To be full-blooded Sebacean, or to even appear to be so; if that was Scorpius' secret wish, even if a medically impossible one, she did not blame him for it.
Lalan scanned Scorpius' sleeping face, and though she could detect the gradual progression of the smoothing of the lines there, the subtle changes in his skin tone that indicated the transformations of the Sebacean gene therapy, she was glad he still looked as she remembered.

If the Sebacean remains in the heat, she will begin to suffer even more negative effects and may be at great risk.

Moya and her crew encounter a breakaway Sebacean colony where a princess is about to ascend to the throne.
But, the princess must be able to produce an heir before claiming her throne and John turns out to be the only person on the planet who is genetically compatible with her.
If so, this may explain the growing number of Sebacean "half-breeds"; more and more Sebaceans may be being forced to go outside their own species in order to find compatible mates.

Scorpius is the product of a Scarren experiment to breed Sebaceans with Scarrens in order to see if the race could provide any genetic value to the Scarrens.
His mother was kidnapped from a failed Sebacean colonization settlement and raped/forcibly impregnated by a Scarren.
Turns out that due to the Sebacean race's inability to deal with extreme heat, the entire species is deemed unworthy and thus the Scarren threat of annihilation is posed.

 Farscape World :: View topic - Scorpius - the hero of the UT
The main difference between Scarren Empire and Peacekeepers is that Scarrens also want to breed with those they conquer, believing the genetic connection will make the conquered a genuine part of the empire,..
He has indeed painted himself as the hero of the Sebacean race, and that is a particularly horrific picture - I have to share John's feeling of disgust when it comes to Scorpy and his goals.
He's worse than either, in a way - he has no problem sacrificing Peackeepers to the cause (well, okay, no 'right minded' peacekeeper has problems sacrificing their fellow solders to stay alive, thats the training) but I think he'd do in the whole army if it guarenteed him that the Scarrens would die as well.

Given that we don't know what Sebacean gestation periods are, that could still mean anything; currently pregnant, never pregnant, had baby already.
No - she didn't get Mom or Dad's good looks (but then look at Scorpy and Jothee as examples of what happens when Sebacean women breed with alien men), but if she turns out to be from 300 cycles in the future...
I would definitely say though that she is not as pregnant as you would expect her to be and I think the child, if any, has already been born or lost.

Just before they left Moya, Crichton had looked both ways to make sure the coast was clear and then had taken Chiana aside, asking her to comm him immediately if Aeryn had any problems.
She was pretty sure he'd lost an argument with Aeryn about her going on this trip without him, which might explain the Sebacean's cranky mood in part...she hated being protected as much as Chiana herself did.
The Sebacean stared at her, she could feel the steel grey eyes boring into her....and then Aeryn sighed and started talking again, in low tones, but clearly.
