Homeworld: Lamemda III
History
Government
They do not have a central government and are divided up into large clans. Each clan claims a region and area of the huge wind blown plains. Each clan is governed by a Kagan who is the hereditary leader of the clan. He has the power of life and death over every member of his clan. His word is law.
Description
The Lamemda are a short stocky race with many of the typical features of most humanoid species. The males are on average 5' to 5'8" and weight about 180 lbs to 240 lbs. The females are on average about 4,8 to 5'6" and weight about 100 lbs to 160 lbs.
They have flat features and a wide nose. They have black hair and brown eyes for the most part and their skin tone is a deep olive brown. Most of the males walk with a strange rolling, bow legged stride. Most females do not.
The males for the most part wear earth tones with a lot of leather in the form of jackets, pants, boots, belts and vests while females will wear more colorful clothes and no leather except for boots and belts.
Physiology
Basically a normal humanoid physiology. Their diet is high in meat, cheese and milk. They drink a form of fermented milk called Kavis. They are in excellent physical shape with few being overweight.

Few cases of mental illness.

In the center of the valley stands the statue of Mon'gel. It stands over 50 feet tall. A strong masculin warrior of unknown race. He holds a brutal looking sword in one hand and a savage looking axe in the other.
