The Zangali are tall, warm-blooded reptiloids with a wide stubborn streak and a strict code of honor. Although quick-tempered and disinclined to become fluent in alien languages, most Zangali do not fit the common misconception that they are dumb. Granted, as a culture they are less wily than their Grimlahdi cousins. But they are forthright and pride themselves on straight-talking and honesty - and they take a dim view of people who betray or lie to them. At the same time, they have no qualms with resorting to terrorism to achieve their goals.
