The Marrax (singular and plural) are humanoid in appearance and typically have dark skin and hair as part of their adaptation to a hot, sunny planet, also called Marrax.

They excel at doing delicate work in tight quarters and can work for brief periods in dangerous low-oxygen atmospheres without masks. That makes them extremely valuable as dockworkers, technicians, and construction specialists on orbital infrastructures and ships.

It’s not widely known, but the Marrax have non-human (reptilian) DNA mixed in their genome. To blend in, the Marrax generally hide this from outsiders at all costs. While they’re proud of their lineage, many societies are still wary of people who have snakes as part of their ancestral DNA. Lore has it that the Marrax were originally a created race that evolved from the naga of ancient times.
