Species

The Milky Way galaxy is populated with dozens of sapient species - and dozens more that are not. Some species are valued members governed within Citadel space, working to build a better galactic community; others are lawless, caring nothing for the Council's edicts; a few are outcasts. All are unique.

Included here are the currently playable species available in Character Generation.
