SAURIANS
The natives of Sauria are a reptilian bipedal humanoid race. They have reddish
skin and oversized yellow eyes. They have three fingers and one opposable thumb
on each hand, and three toes on each foot. There is a vestigial webbing between
their fingers and toes. Neither the lack of a fourth finger nor the vestigial
webbing affect their fine manipulation skills.
Saurians have four separate
and distinct hearts, which makes them the hard to kill, and makes them very strong
and durable. They are about as tall as an average Terran.
The native language
of Saurians is sung, not spoken, and is considered a very difficult (if not impossible)
language to learn by non-Saurians. Conversely, however, they do not have any trouble
learning most Federation languages, including Federation Standard.
They excel at artistic
and musical endeavours. Quite a few Saurians have become quite famous in the Federation
for their talents. Their production of Saurian Brandy is considered an art form.
