### Biology and Appearance Amarans are a small, bipedal sentient species with clawed digits, pointed ears, long snouts, and fur-covered bodies with bushy tails. Their fur ranges in color, but a common sight is a pattern of red-orange fur across the back, tail, and outside of the arms and legs with white patches on the limbs, ears, snout, neck, and belly. Their fur grows short on most of the body with the exceptions of the tail and of tufted jowls. Amaran eyes are often black, but green, blue, and even red have been sighted amongst a few members of the species. Males in the species tend to be taller and heavier than the females, though unless breast-feeding the females have no obvious breasts and are often indistinguishable from males. Both sexes are considered adults by the age of 18. ### Society and Culture Amarans are known to be unrepentant hagglers, bargaining and bickering over every transaction to get the best deal they could. Many Amarans are expert beast handlers, taming and breeding many non-sentient species for sale throughout the galaxy. Amarans have taken great strides in maintaining their homeplanet's environment, with poaching considered a heinous crime. Amarans also have a mythological reverence for the stars which inspired the species to reach the heavens and create their own primitive version of hyperspace travel. ### Names Not much is known about Amaran naming conventions, though it has been noted that many do not go by their birth name and are instead given nicknames derived from their personality and skills. **Male Names.** Bikki, Todde, Pella **Female Names.** Perrin, Mirri, Kana **Surnames.** Rurrri (male), Surru (female)
