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.
