Dhinkaid

The regal Dhinkaid hail from the planet Ruka in the Ruci Sanjaru system. These noble warriors value honor above all else and have so far managed to keep out of the mess of the other systems. This hasn’t been a terribly difficult task for them considering the best route through their planet passes near a black hole. They do some trade with outsiders but it is heavily sanctioned.

Dhinkaid are humanoid. They stand a little taller than most humans and have thick reptilian skin. They have only three fingers on each hand, and gills on their neck. There is very little in the way of sexual dimorphism between male and female Dhinkaid. There is not very much diversity in the way different members of the Dhinkaid look and so beauty is often displayed in dramatic garb and flashy jewelry.

The Dhinkaid have lived quietly on their world for generation upon generation, staying out of the politics of the rest of the sector. When humans first arrived in the sector war broke out between the two after the Dhinkaid refused to allow humans on their planet. After the scream, both sides were weakened and the humans agreed to stop fighting if the Dhinkaid would allow trade. Reluctantly, the Dhinkaid put sanctions in place to allow trade to happen in specific places on the planet. These legal landing zones are highly sought after and the Dhinkaid have made a fortune in recent years.
