Massar
The Massar are a race of anapsid-like sapients from the Empyrean universe. As an interuniversal (Class XI) species, they are members of the Urrun League.
Physiology
The Massar are a race of large reptilian creatures. They are centauriformes, with two arms and four legs. The rearmost legs are the shortest, and are semi-erect. The front legs are also semi-erect, but are longer, causing the animal's body to be angled upwards. They have short necks ending in flattened heads with deeply-set, forward-facing eyes and large, drooping ears.
Quills cover their back, arms, and head. These are detachable and quite sharp, formed from keratin and set into the Massar's skin. A single quill can be 34cm long.
A notable feature is the reasonably long tail, which ends in a densely quilled 'mace'.
Diet
Massar are omnivorous, capable of eating meat and plant matter.
Reproduction
This race is sexual and viviparous. Offspring gestate for ten months and are born around 40cm long. They become sexually mature at eighteen standard years old.
Intelligence
Sapient beings, the Massar show good levels of intelligence.
