Major Races
The "major" races are called such because they have all developed jump drive independently, and/or forged a multi-sector domain using it. Of the major races, three are human, one is geneered, and four are natural aliens.
Droyne - The Droyne are the survivors of the Ancients. They are a multi-part race; an individual "castes" to become a member of a subspecies suited to a particular role. Uncasted members do not fully develop and live as Chirpers. Psionically inclined. See Aliens 5: Droyne and Adventure 12: Secret of the Ancients. Imagine if the aliens from Close Encounters were lizards with wings.
Fteirle (Aslan) - Lion-like creatures Evolved from carnivorous hunters, they developed a society structured by clan; no central government. Culture places great value on honour to balance natural aggression. Their society spans 17 sectors spinward of Solomani space. Lions that live by the Bushido code. See Aslan & Solomani and Aliens 1: Aslan.
Hivers - Evolved from gatherer/scavenger stock with six-fold radial symmetry standing about 1.5 m high weighing about 150 kg. The head is a limb modified with extra sensory organs (eye stalks, tentacles, and infrared sensors). The other limbs are used for locomotion or manipulation. No verbal speech, they communicate by ideographic sign language. They are more curious than humans. Known for their superior electronics & computers. They prefer subtle manipulation to physical confrontation or overt action. They dominate a several-sector domain trailing of Solomani Space. See Aliens 7: Hivers.
K'kree - The K'kree developed from hexapodal herd animals, developing intelligence for defence. They have a several sector realm trailing the Vargr Extents and the 3rd Imperium. Their herd mentality makes them happier only when accompanied by their extended family/herd. They are quite claustrophobic. They are arrogant, conservative, and militantly anti-carnivore. See Aliens 2: K'kree.
Solomani (Humaniti major) - Solomani humans come from humaniti's original home: Terra. Solomani are known for their curiosity, impetuosity, and belief that they should rule scattered humaniti. Of all humaniti, only the Solomani display ethnic diversity (because each other human race grew from an undiverse initial population). The Solomani Confederation is an 8-sector domain rimward of Imperial space. See Aslan & Solomani and Aliens 6: Solomani.
Vargr - Geneered by the Ancients 300K years ago from Terran canines. Their mental capacities were uplifted to sentience and there fore paws were reformed as hands. They are spread over 18 sectors with no encompassing government coreward of Imperial space. Wolves in space. See Vilani & Vargr and Aliens 3: Vargr.
Vilani (Humaniti major) - Taken from Terra 300K years ago by Ancients. Developed jump drive and built 28-sector 1st Empire (Zira Sirku), which lasted a few K years before falling within 2 centuries of meeting the Solomani. Pure stock Vilani known for long life span (up to 200 years). Group-oriented culture known for careful, deliberate planning. See Vilani & Vargr.
Zhodani (Humaniti major) - Taken from Terra 300K years ago by Ancients. Developed a society stratified by psionic ability now dominating a several-sector domain spinward of Vargr space that eventually came in conflict with the 3rd Imperium in Spinward Marches. See Aliens 4: Zhodani.
Minor Alien Races
Alien Races are non-human intelligent races found within known space. These count as "minor" because they did not develop jump drive on their own. Races created by genetic engineering techniques (geneering) are noted
Adduxar - Carnivorous reptilian race with small stellar empire of about 37 planets met peacefully by the Zhodani as they expanded. Currently Zhodani citizens with a 10-planet reservation with sizable populations found throughout Zhodani space. See Aliens 4: Zhodani.
Ael Jael - Flying sentients; leathery skinned rather than feathered. Imperial citizens. See JTAS 15 Contact!
Akeed - Minor race dominating subsector-sized Akeena Union. Achieved TL10, but jump drive given by humans. Human contact has been kept from direct study of society. See Gateway and MTJ4.
Akumgeda (Vargr minor) - Geneered by Ancients for weird Psionic powers. See Vilani & Vargr.
Ahetoawa - Sentient psionic plants (near plants). Contacted by Aslan. See Challenge 56 Contact!
Apes (Uplifted Races) - ??

Brinn - Descended from carnivore/killer stock in a methane atmosphere. Decapodal (10-limbed), looking like a cross between a crab and a spider. Belligerent and anti-human, they occupy 6 worlds in Corridor Sector. See TD12.
Bwaps (Newts) - Amphibians (Newts). Bipedal tailed quadrupeds from a warm, damp planet. Known as thoroughly efficient bureaucrats throughout imperial space. See JTAS 11 Contact!
Chamaxi - Not the bugs, but a burrowing race of pseudo crustaceans related to them. They achieved TL9, including interplanetary flight, but no jump drive. When they accidentally destroyed the natural checks on the bugs, their planet was overrun and they became extinct about 400 years ago (~700ti). See Double Adventure 5 Chamax Plague.
Chips - Intelligence in a naturally occurring silicon chip. The chips were unaware of the physical universe until experimentally connected to a computer. See Adventure 13 Signal GK and various TNE documentation.
Chirpers - Uncasted Droyne who is not fully developed, live as Chirpers. Psionically inclined. See Aliens 5: Droyne and Adventure 12: Secret of the Ancients. Imagine if the aliens from Close Encounters were lizards with wings.
Crenduthaar - Evolved from hexapodal carnivore/pouncer stock, Crendu are about 2.5 m long and mass up to 500 kg. Massive, powerfully built, with armour-scale hides evolved to resist solar flares and a double row of sharp teeth in a flexible mouth, these are scary looking! However, they are fairly well civilized. On their own they have TL0-1, but adapt well enough to tools provided by their Vargr neighbours. See MTJ3.
Cytrialin - Dead race whose philosophic outlook provided the basis for the Cytrialin Unity, a human/alien interdependent culture. See Challenge 39 Hinterworlds.
Danin - Race of bipedal quadrupeds "of vague reptilian aspect." Trisexual, they change sex roles as they age. Principles equal with humans in a several subsector domain. See Glimmerdrift Reaches.
Dastri - Humanoid race with stone age civilization guarding shrinking territories on a terra-like world from human colonization. See MTJ4.

Selyin blue nobility (17%)
Magsin green farmer/workers (44%)
Chutin red warriors (39%)
See Vanguard Reaches.
Eshaar Asha - Natives of a methane planet between Zhodani Consulate and a few Imperial client states. They look a bit like giant horseshoe crabs. They believe that they are part of a planet-wide organism. See Ordeal by Eshaar.
Faar - Minor Race with high tech civilization (TL16), but never had the urge to explore beyond their planet; they never bothered with jump drive. Thriving export trade with human merchants. See Gateway and MTJ4.
Githiashio - Intelligent squidoids some 2-2.5 meters long living on water worlds. See JTAS 16 Contact!

Gl'lu - Hermaphroditic septapodal minor race. See TD1.
Gniivi - "Large, long-lived creatures," "slow and deliberate" with 3 subsector domain at trailing edge of Hinterworlds. See Challenge 39 Hinterworlds.
Gurvin - Derived from hexapodal omnivore/hunter stock, about 1.75 m. tall, standing upright on two legs. The middle limbs can also be used as legs (for stability if needed or speed). Females are much more intelligent than males, who seldom leave Gurvin settlements. Females can be found throughout Hiver space as merchants and business execs or less commonly as explorers. They are obsessed with money. Most place names in the Hive Federation are derived from the Gurvin language, which provides an intermediate translation between phonetic languages (like Galanglic) and the Hiver ideographic tongue. See Aliens 7: Hivers.
Hhkar - Reptilians evolved from carnivore/killer, bipedal with heavy tail, 2.5 m, 250 kg. Migrated from home worlds about -10,000ti; returned -222ti pushing Vargr settlers out. Control half subsector domain. member of Julian Protectorate. See Challenge 52 Contact!

H'Oskhikhil - Manhole-shaped beings .5 m high by 1.5 m diameter. Only the adult stage is intelligent. They have only recently begun to develop a culture because the adults developed armour against ravaging juveniles who eat them. See write-up of Reavers' Deep, TSG (series), or Aoreriyya Library Data.
Huosua - Minor, nonhuman race. Dangerous and Xenophobic. Looks like a possibility for "Aliens."
Irdu - See TD3.

J'aadje - Agile, golden-skinned omnivorous humanoids about 1.5 m tall weighing approx. 65 kg. confined to one planet. Achieved TL4. Trade relations with Caledon begun about 1110 ti. See Double Adventure 6 Night of Conquest.
Jenda - Great capacity for biochemical technology.
Jessa - Lizard-like and thin, highly dexterous and six-fingered, standing about 1.6 m tall. This race has developed a TL5 civilization living in dirigibles to avoid the problems of living on a geologically active planet. It also does not provide much of an industrial base. See Rescue on Galatea. See Rescue on Galatea.

Issugar - Left by Ancients 300,000 years ago. Since dropped to primitive conditions. Never very numerous; now live on a restricted reservation. See Alien Realms.
Kaggushus - ??
Lancia - ??
Liberts - ??
Loeskalth - Extinct race that got jump drive from the Vilani and got aggressive. Before the Vilani finished them off, a massive asteroid ship took off across the void about -4500 ti. Emerging on the other side, they became known as the Sky Raiders, legendary across Far Frontiers Sectors. Eventually, civilization aboard their world ship broke down; many left and colonized worlds in Far Frontiers, interbreeding with the Vlazhumecta (qv). See Fate of the Sky Raiders and TTC5.

Suerrat - Shown as picture in Aslan & Solomani.
Syleans - Human minor race responsible for the Sylean Federation, which became the 3rd Imperium.
Tapazmal - Geneered by the Ancients for low birth rate. later raided by the Loeskalth before annexation by the Zira Sirku. See TD20.
Thaggeshi - Primitive human race found by the Vilani in early -9100s ti. (Since then, probably subsumed by Vilani for the most part.) See Vilani & Vargr.
Urunishani - ??
Vlazhumecta - Human minor race contacted by the Zhodani about -4900 ti. They got jump-drive from Zho traders. After rapid expansion, they collapsed under the strain of maintaining colonies far away. The Zho came in to clean up the pieces. Many mixed with Loeskalth (Sky Raiders), who colonized the same area when their Sky Raider civilization fractured about -3900 ti. See TTC5 "Far Frontiers."
Yileans - ??

Variant Human Races
Were developed some time during the last 2000 years by Solomani genetic engineering techniques (geneering).
Cassildan - Shown as picture in Aslan & Solomani. May be taller on average than Solomani.
Hass'kor - Had "Solomani size and shape"; TL9 w/o jump drive but TL16 biochemical technology. Uplifted the Prt' to sentience, then died in an interplanetary war. See JTAS 26 Contact!
Iltharan - Drexilthar is a wet planet in Reavers' Deep with little land. Aggressive culture carved Subsector Empire by conquest during the Long Night. Periodically beaten up by the Imperium to keep them down. Sliver of race called K'tring on Gaajpaadge; survivors of a warship's crew. See Pilot's Guide to Drexilthar Subsector, Double Adventure 6 Night of Conquest, and developmental text for TNE-pocket.
Iziri - Geneered race designed for harsh environment, thin atmosphere and bad radio conditions. They can communicate across long distances (klicks) by sound. See Aslan & Solomani.
Jonkeereen - Geneered race designed for desert existence. Originally designed for a desert planet in Gushmege to counter Suerrat expansion early in the 400s, they were developed by SUSag on Jonkeer in the 500s and developed their own subculture in the 600s. See MTJ3.
Khulan - Died out thousands of years before Vilani Scouts arrived in -9309 ti. See Vilani & Vargr.
Luriani - ??
Mal'Gnar - Humans’ geneered to fly, with feathered wings and retractable feet. Tend to remain aloof from Humaniti and hate Droyne. They are reported as interfertile with humaniti, but I'd hate to see a crossbreed! See The Beyond.
Mermani - Humans geneered by Imperial research scientists for existence underwater, featuring large webbed hands and feet, no body hair, flat or external ear, wide noses that seal (I guess like a seal's), and un-pigmented skin, leaving them the color of alabaster. See TTC5 "Mermani Descent."
Murrissi - ??
Nexies - Nexine is an under populated water world being "reseeded" by the Ministry of Conservation (as of 1105) using biologically altered humans. No description available. See Supplement 3 Spinward Marches.
Sydymic - Aggressive minor race controlling a subsector-sized domain. 2.4 m tall! See Ley Sector.
Wuans - Self-geneered race designed for industrial production. Workers are single-minded and physically tough. Managers have more cerebral flexibility. See Aslan & Solomani.
Zaris - Humans’ geneered as labour; designed to be non-interfertile ("profound biochemical differences") to avoid contamination by wild warrior strains of humaniti. Race possesses latent psionic link that provides stability and quick reaction to disasters. See Glimmerdrift Reaches.
