Olu'Zut

"The Olu'Zut are a physically imposing species with slight reptilian features (see the image linked above). On average, they are about eight feet tall, which dwarfs even the other Coalition species. Though they take pride in their capabilities as warriors, they are a measured and honorable people who (in principle and theory if not always in practice) would prefer to seek other forms of conflict resolution before resorting to violence or force. They are professionals through and through and take pride in fulfilling their duties honorably and effectively. The Olu'Zut were the first alien species the Pruthyen came into contact with and the first meeting between two different intelligent species from separate star systems in known galactic history, laying the foundation for the United Galactic Coalition. Perhaps no two species could've set a better foundation, as they combined the purely intellectual Pruthyen with the measured and reserved might of the Olu'Zut to create a society that now dominates the galaxy."
