Centaurans are outwardly indistinguishable from humans, and are sexually compatible with them, able to interbreed with little difficulty. Indeed, there is only a minor difference in organ placement and DNA between Humans and Centaurans, but on the grand scale of things, these are fairly minor. Human-Centauran breeding requires only minimal medical supervision. One thing to note, however, is that as a whole the Centauran people are a very attractive people. This comes, probably from having had a few more centuries of evolution wherein good hygiene was figured out. | Centaurans are outwardly indistinguishable from humans, and are sexually compatible with them, able to interbreed with little difficulty.

This comes, probably from having had a few more centuries of evolution wherein good hygiene was figured out. They also are capable of manifesting empathic/telepathic abilities anywhere from E1 to E4 and T1 to T3, though most Centaurans do not. This ability may stem from their concern of others' emotional state and well being. | ||
Centaurans are, as a rule, the most invisible people in the Federation. While carrying a great deal of pride in their homes, they also know that they are members of the Federation, as is everyone. Thus asserting their own race above being a Federation citizen reminds them of the city-state patriotism that led to the Plague Wars. Because of this belief, and a lack of assertion of their own racial identity, they are often mistaken as either human or Betazoid. They don't mind. They know the truth in their hearts, and they know that just because they aren't rubbing peoples' faces in their culture doesn't devalue it. This is evidenced by the fact that they let themselves be called Centaurans. Such is a Terran term; they call their planet Velestus. They know it is Velestus though, so they don't need others to call it such. | Centaurans are, as a rule, the most invisible people in the Federation.
