The Ry'nari are a reptilian race characterized by their scaly skin, long, powerful tails, and razor sharp teeth. They possess three digits and one thumb on each appendage. Females are superficially similar to males but possess feathered crests. Ry'nari typically mate for life; the females giving live birth to a single child after an eleven month gestation period. The newborns have a very low survival rate within the first two years of their lives, although those that survive live an average of one hundred years. They are omnivorous, but their formidable teeth lends meat to being their favorite meal. | The Ry'nari are a reptilian race characterized by their scaly skin, long, powerful tails, and razor sharp teeth.
