Rendovans

Rendovans are a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos in the fictional science-fiction universe of Starfinder. They are depicted as sentient, reptilian humanoids known for their stoic nature and affinity for the desert environments of their homeworld. Rendovans possess tough, scaly hides that offer natural protection against the harsh elements of Xylos, and they typically have dark coloration that aids in camouflage within rocky or sandy terrains.

Physically, Rendovans are generally taller and more muscular than humans, with strong limbs and sharp claws. Their heads are elongated, featuring prominent brow ridges and often a frill or crest that can be flared to express emotion or intimidation. They are adapted to survive with minimal water and can endure extreme temperatures, making them well-suited for exploration and survival in challenging environments.

Culturally, Rendovans are known for their deeply ingrained sense of honor and tradition. They value discipline, patience, and resilience above all else. Their society is often structured around clans or family units, with a strong emphasis on communal responsibility and the protection of their ancestral lands. While they can appear reserved or even aloof to outsiders, Rendovans are fiercely loyal to those they consider allies. In terms of their technological capabilities, Rendovans often focus on practical and durable tools and weaponry, reflecting their pragmatic outlook.
