Dawiar

The Dawiar are a species of short, broad bipedal humanoids, with physiques best described as "barrel-like". Their homeworld is known as Kharhazad to the Dawiar, or Oriolis III to the broader Federation. They are rather tetchy neighbours with the Caitians to this day, with whom they recently fought the Caitian-Dawiar War.

The Dawiar are a martial society, led by a Great King, along with a wide variety of middle-tier nobles that are typically translated as "Thanes".

Recently, they have been allies of the Ashalla Pact, then subsequently the Gorn.
