Legend

this tall, thin, humanoid race was native to the planet Muunilinst. Their skulls were elongated and thin, with a tall brain cavity and drooping cheekbones. Their large hands were tipped with equally long fingers. The skin of the average Muun was a pasty-white color, the result of living indoors and underground for much of their lives. A Muun's internal organs were perhaps most noted for the fact that each Muun had three hearts. Although Muuns often traveled away from their homeworld, such trips were quite short, as many Muuns became homesick if away from Muunilinst for too long. As a people, the Muuns were noted for their ability to calculate compelx mathematical data without the use of a computer. Muun children were at least as mathematically competent as the smartest human. Muuns were also incredibly greedy beings who saw a other beings as hotheaded and impulsive, and looked to take whatever advantages their could with other races. Muun society was controlled by the most prominent of clans, and only those members of the most powerful clans ever left the surface of Muunilinst.
