The Duarn are a race of comparatively short, blue skinned, stocky humanoids. They are powerfully built. Their race is stereotyped as being marvelous engineers and determined warriors. To a large degree, this is true. The Duarn are gifted builders, mechanics, and engineers. They have a knack for making things work. Many imperial starship captains will not launch without a Duarn in the engine room or at the tactical station or both! The Duarn owned Lungoon Aerospace is the gold standard in Imperial ship building.
They are fearsome soldiers and - interestingly enough - have a knack for poetry.
Prior to the formation of the empire, Duarn mercenaries hired themselves out for Terran military efforts. In today's military, Duarn can be found at every level of the service.
Cultural standards require males to be bearded. It is considered scandalous to not wear one. Likewise, females wear their hair long and always braided in public. Only the female's mate ever sees her hair unbraided.
Like the Bigozian, Duarn are well respected within the Empire and close allies with Earth.
The Duarn have no capacity for psionics.
