Nadorean

The nadoreans hail from a planet that is approximately 90% oceanic and highly volcanic, dotting the planet’s surface with sprawling archipelagos. They are an amphibious race, and deeply proud of their heritage. Being the sole sapient race on Nadorei, they adopted the planet’s name as their own upon contact with the Kestrid. Biologically, the Nadoreans elicit images of the terrestrial axolotl. Several fronds sprouting from just behind the jawline act as a filtration system as they swim, catching plankton and miniscule crustaceans for sustenance. Though not designed to walk bipedally, many Nadoreans do so in the presence of Kestrid solely as a point of pride, and to deny them the opportunity to compare them to household pets.
