As a result it isn't always easy to organize them into a coherent group, and they rarely get along with other species on the simple account of taking their gestures as serious offenses. Strong (-1) - Members of this species may appear normal at first glance, but their unimposing stature holds a highly efficient muscle structure that allows them to accomplish great deeds of strength that is simply impossible to other species of their size. They can run faster, lift more and generally do better in any physical tasks they are confronted with. Fast Breeders (-1) - Members of this species are fast breeders, meaning that they are able to deliver their offsprings much quicker, or will usually deliver several at a time. Through a combination of natural factors, this means that they are able to replenish their numbers and breed new life into their population much quicker.

Their skin colors are quite diverse including shades of green, gray, and even reds. On average Gronin reach physical maturity at 16 years old with males standing anywhere between 6 foot and 6 foot and a half and females standing at 5 and a half to six foot. Males on average weigh between 200 and 250 pounds while females weigh anywhere from 165 to 200. The average lifespan of both males and females ranges from 65-75 years old (assuming fair health) with women typically living slightly longer. Women are on average only pregnant with offspring for 4-5 months with twins and triplets being the norm. Both hair and eye color are varied among the Gronin. [b]POPULATION:[/b] Up for community vote, depending on traits [b]RACE BEHAVIOUR:[/b] The Gronin are more often than not described as a militaristic race believing in the right of conquest. Most Gronin favor martial prowess over anything else, yet they are not a "dumb" race. They still use tactics and attempt diplomacy where possible. Many Gronin seek glory and wish their names to be remembered for eternity, willing to die for whatever cause they might support. Being a militaristic race the Gronin aren't opposed to slavery and prefer to have thralls work the fields and mines while they themselves hunt, war, and procreate. Gronin diets consist of mostly wild game and farm raised meat out of preference, however they are more than capable of digesting and extracting nutrients from fruits and vegetables. Many Gronin are known to prefer their meat under cooked and suffer no ill effects in the process. Alcohol is another big part of their diet and some suspect this might be why they are such a quarrelsome species. Gronin typically drink more alcohol than anything else and are known to get rowdy both when they've had too much or too little. [b]HISTORY:[/b] Long and bloody...
