Overview

Grimlahdi are medium-sized reptiloids originating on Grimlahd, cousins to Zangali.

Physical Data

Their general appearance bears some resemblance to bipedal iguanas in that they have scaly skin, nonretractable claws, a whip-like tail, and head spines. In addition, their tongues are forked like those of snakes. Eye color may range from brown to dark blue to light gray. Scale colors are typically earth tones or dark green, with slight color variation between front and back sides.

Physical differences from their cousin race include a tail and a lighter, more agile build. Internally, enough similarity exists that a doctor specializing in one race may be able to treat a patient of the other. The races share copper-based blood with compatible antigens.

Diet

History

Grimlahdi collaborated with the Nall invasion of their world, helping the Nall hunt down the rebellious Zangali who did not manage to escape offworld, and may as a result have a bit of cultural guilt.

Famous Figures

Culture

Community

The Grimlahdi are considered shrewder, more intelligent, and less impulsive than the Zangali, often with a more Machiavellian than philosophical viewpoint. They are willing to consume meat other than that of their deceased elders, as opposed to their cousins' vegetarianism.
