The Scanians are a technologically sophisticated sophont species.

• They are a Minor Human Race and a Human Chimera with a humanoid appearance.

Description (Specifications)

The Scanians are a Human chimera native to Akiva (Dagudashaag 0935).

Physiology and environment

Scanians were genetically engineered by a Solomani genetic engineering company from normal human stock in order to allow colonisation of high gravity, water worlds. A Scanian male will average 1.8m in height and weighs approximately 80 kilograms. A female averages about 1.6m and 68 kilograms. Height-to-weight ratio for males is 45 kg per metre thereby increasing muscular capacity. The Solomani geneers decided to use a planet in the Dagudashaag sector [0935], which they called Gaea, for their experimentation. To endure the intense cold, high gravity and effects of the sea they altered the colonists’ genes to create a number of mutations.
