CODEX: SALARIAN

[Syri]

SALARIAN

Names: A full salarian name is very complex and includes – in order – the name of a salarian's homeworld, nation, city, district, clan name and given name.

Gender: 90% of the salarian population is male because of strictly regulated breeding laws. Females are usually cloistered on their homeworlds out of tradition and respect.

Lifespan: Salarians lives are short due to their fast metabolism and generally they do not live older than 40 years.

Classes: Engineer, Infiltrator, Soldier, Sentinel
(Salarian sentinels need staff approval. PM Syri for details)
Salarians are a very tech-minded race, known for their adept skills in espionage and research. Salarian biotics are very rare and are often assigned to fields such as intelligence services and research, where their valuable skills will not be put at risk by threat of enemy incursion.

Appearance: Salarians are generally tall and lanky. Skin color can vary from bright reds and greens to the more common shades of blue or grey. Their blood is a greenish color. Salarian eyes are large and oval and have thin membranes in place of eyelids. The pupils are a wide slit, oriented horizontally, and the irises can be dark green, purple, or brown. Salarians blink upwards, rather than downwards as humans do.

Things to Note: Salarians have high metabolisms, meaning they think faster and act faster than other species. They are known for their non-linear thinking and observational capabilities, making them ideal for research and espionage. Salarians are often very loyal to their families because of how dalatrasses (clan matriarchs) have their children imprinted upon them, and salarian families are usually large and can exceed thousands of members. Salarians also lack sex drives, so they rarely involve themselves in intimate relationships.
