A Sentient or Sapient being. Particularly one which travels amongst and colonizes star systems. It's root suggests the word means: beings with the ability to communicate creatively, ala Sophistry.

Sophenomenal

A super-ill female Deejay, that can name any song. She can play drums, rap, and play guitar. She has the most beautiful singing voice, but chooses to rap. She is the best at mixing records.
That girl is Sophenomenal.
