The Nind of 146-685 (Diaspora 3004) are a Minor Non-Human Race with a non-humanoid appearance. They are technologically developing sophonts.

Description (Specifications)

Interdicted during the Third Imperium's early unification days and throughout later conflict with the Solomani Confederation, the Nind are an anthropomorphic, bipedal, hirsute simian race.

History & Background (Dossier)

The arboreal Nind are vegetarians. The Nind may scuffle and quarrel, but none has ever killed another, nor do they have a word for war. The Nind have a matriarchal participatory democracy among their adult childbearing females, an oddity to newcomers here. The males are not emancipated, nor allowed the right to vote. The Nind long ago settled amongst themselves that the upbringing of the young, selection of mates, and decisions of what to eat and what was useful belonged to the female members of their race, and the males could tend to all the non-thinking chores and work.

Later Eras

The Nind ignored the Rebellion entirely.

The Covenanter's Scout Service, and later RCES, discovered the Nind to be long-lived with a fairly low birth rate, mating only twice in their lifetimes, a span of a century and a half. They have achieved the pinnacle of their society at TL–5, and have since the Collapse slowly increased in population.
