Legend

this was of seal-like humanoids was native to Tynna. The average Tynnan had a sleek pelt and a thick, tapering tail. Their hands and feet were webbed, allowing them full motion in or out of the water. Their pointed ears lay close against their skulls, and their long, moist snouts were filled with protruding buckteeth. Although the eyesight of a Tynnan was considered poor, their sense of hearing was quite acute. Like most other creatures found on Tynna, the Tynnans' bodies maintained a layer of blubber to help maintain their body temperature. As a race, the Tynnans were quite wealthy, but individuals were required to pay their dues to a state-run government that provided the necessities free of charge. Those Tynnans who desired to work for a living took on professions as artists or scientists. They were curious about the galaxy at large, and many Tynnans traveled the stars in search of new locations. As a people, Tynnans tended to be frivolous, but they were also known to be pragmatic planners.
