Dwerlan

The Dwerlans were a sentient species from the planet Dwerla. Their physiological classification was DBPK, signifying they were warm-blooded oxygen-breathing herbivores who did not walk upright.

They were flattened cylinders about six feet long with four sets of manipulatory appendages behind a conical section which was probably the head, and another four locomotor appendages. Apart from the smaller size and number of appendages, they resembled the Kelgians. The pointed, fox-like head and the thick, broad-striped coat make it look like a furry, short-legged zebra with an enormous tail to Earth-humans.

They seemed not to possess natural weapons, or any signs of having had any in the past. Their limbs were not built for speed; the set used for walking were short and padded, while the forward set were more slender, less well-muscled and ended in four highly flexible digits.

The species had two sexes, male and female, and the reproductive system was relatively normal. Both sexes used a water soluble dye to enhance artificially the bands of color on their body fur for cosmetic reasons. Immature Dwerlans used no dyes, but a brownish pigment on a bare patch above the tail.
