Captutian are from Nithus, a planet located in the Theta Borealis Sector. They are described in most Human records as "peaceful, furry, and telepathic".

The "peaceful" trait is a recent development; previous Captutian cultures were aggressive and warlike, causing great damage to their world's environment and destroying most of the population. Modern Captutians are dedicated to preserving what remains of their world, and living in harmony.

Their spoken language is called Captutiani.
