Saurians are a sentient, reptilian society native to Saurus/Vilis. The dimwitted, stone age Saurians were overlooked by the IISS exploratory teams when the world was first explored. Because of its T-Prime status, the world was opened to outside colonization with great fanfare. And then the colonists discovered the truth about their neighbors. "A day late, a credit short" the Imperial government could do little beyond sending observers to prevent exploitation of the suprisingly gentle creatures. In the centuries since colonization, the Saurians have shown a penchance for copying human culture, having formed simple communities copied upon the human settlements. Many Saurians serve in the local defense forces, and were instrumental in beating back a Sword World incursion in 1132.
