This race originates from the planet Navina, a planet within the Azten Empire. They are a variation from humanoids in that they have four arms instead of two. They have two weak short legs accustomed to lower gravity environments. They have a round head with a rather flat face, with two widely spaced forward looking eyes. Navinos have potbellies, are hairless, and stand about 1.7 meters high.

The navino skin is olive colored and they are mostly vegetarians, but sometimes enjoy insects. All four arms are fully functional and similar in size and shape. Each arm has two elbows or joints besides the shoulder and wrist. Each leg has only one knee.

Navino have excellent reflexes and manual dexterity but are awkward walkers in the gravity environments of most other civilizations. They are the second most common race in Azten, and have a presence in several surrounding empires.
