Simians

The Nhuma'te are a race of technology-obsessed simians from The Andromeda System.

Culture
Only a loose conglomeration of tribes a century ago, the Simians have rapidly industrialised into the FTL-age after contact with The Galactic Union and The Templars of The Dark Sun. Although they are vehemently opposed to The Templars, they do not like the lack of freedom there is in joining the Union, so they try to make due on their own.

Simians are known for being technology hoarders. They love cybernetics, body mods and energy weapons. Searching deserted worlds for ancient ruins is the prime purpose for their military, known as The Technocracy. They are known to pay a high price for electronic documents from either The Templars or The Union, and are sometimes characterised as "untrustworthy" or "capricious" because of this. In truth, Simians just look out for their people first.
