The Kirrixurians of Kirur (Ruupiin 1315) are an apparently extinct Minor Non-Human Race with a Non-humanoid appearance.

• . What little is known suggests that they were technologically competent.
• . They were also known as the Gnumon.

Description (Specifications)

Little is known about the Kirrixurians; all of the details of their physiology are either highly-classified K'kree state secrets or simply lost.

The Kirrixurians or G'naak (contrast with non-capitalised g'naak referring to meat eaters generally) were a race of intelligent carnivores. They apparently developed on Kirrixur, the large habitable moon of Kirur (Ruupiin 1315), the homeworld of the K'kree.

History & Background (Dossier)

Very little is known for sure about this species. Sometime after -4305, following the political unification of Kirur, the Steppelords of K'kree society decided that having a race of intelligent and civilized carnivores on their nearby moon was an unacceptable threat. This prompted a huge economic and technological development spree amongst the K'kree, who sought to reach and eradicate their enemy. The Kirrixurians were much less technologically advanced and ultimately fell before the onslaught. K'kree records show that the war lasted over one hundred years, ending with the extinction of the Kirrixurians.

The G'naak war remains a sensitive topic with the K'kree.

Society & Culture

Little is known about the Kirrixurians; all of the details of their philology, history, culture and society are either highly-classified K'kree state secrets or simply unrecorded. For the most part, all K'kree care about predators is that they are dead.
