The Danin of Crucis Margin Sector are a warm-blooded, four-limbed, technologically sophisticated race of vaguely reptilian aspect.

Description (Specifications)

The various sexual phases occurring during the different portions of a Danin's life are as follows:

• Egg (thet)
• Subadult (ken)
• Male (nit)
• Female (ten)
• Senior (een).

Humans have taken to using the Danin words for the separate phases and as the pronoun for any relevant Danin in general.

History & Background (Dossier)

Danin evolved from a social gatherer. The ability of the post-reproductive phase of Seniors (een) to settle conflicts between different packs without violence sped up the course of civilization among Danin. Planetary-wide social units were achieved at a relatively early stage. Progress in biological and social sciences was also somewhat more advanced than standard technical levels would indicate. Initial offworld contact by the Sa'Dintinin Company was quite peaceful. Mutually beneficial projects were quickly arranged and within decades, small colonies composed of Danin and Human were flourishing on nearby planets. With their greater skill in life sciences, the Danin found it relatively easy to establish self-supporting ecosystems with a minimum of time and material. This ability freed a greater proportion of the Human population to concentrate on industrial development. Cooperative colonies quickly spread over the surrounding systems into adjacent subsectors, easing Human expansion into Crucis Margin Sector.

Astrography

This race is primarily located in the following areas:

• Crucis Margin Sector

Danin cooperate well with Humans, Hivers, and other races. They are spread out in communities across non-aligned space in Crucis Margin, the Corona Arc, and other nearby regions.
