Thet is home to, and has had contact with, a large number of species. Owing to the tendency of humans to proliferate like bad news across all traversable barriers, a substantial portion of intelligent creatures in any universe can be assumed to have pink skin, two legs, and exactly one ridiculous-looking triangular nose—however, there are many well-represented truly alien stocks as well, such as the Physarai and Hogedep. For a brief overview of the major species on Thet, see Species.
