m (Felinids do not eat from specifically eating mice. They heal from the 2u of Vitamin in it which has a 50% chance to heal 1.5 brute and 1.5 burn every tick (0.4u). Anyone can eat mice to get this healing even if they're disgusted by it.)

|On the station, humans enjoy a degree of superiority over other races. Most you meet in a position of power will be human.
|Humans are the most common of all races aboard Space Station 13, and are all-rounders who gain no significant benefits nor weaknesses besides a degree of superiority and respect from Central Command. Nanotrasen doesn't trust any other species to run their stations to the degree a human can, let alone bear the rank of Captain.

|Second-class citizens, vuulen are generally relegated to lower-level work. Within a department, a lizardperson can enjoy anywhere from almost equal standing to obvious racism and disrespect, depending on their co-workers. They tend to form strong communities and enjoy few advantages beyond their striking appearance.
|Originating from the planet Sangris, Vuulen are an alien race of reptilian humanoids descending from tribes of raptor-like predators. Their many notable features set them apart from any other species: Fangs, claws, frills, a tail, and digitigrade legs give vuulen a distinct look. In terms of gameplay, they're by far the most similar to humans, yet still set themselves apart with their looks, mechanics, and alien origin.

These plantpersons obtain precious nutrients from all forms of light, while darkness starves and eventually kills them. Due to their isolationist nature, very few are seen on Nanotrasen stations.
