This page features the Rigellians. You may also be looking for the species known as the Rigelians.
Rigellians

Two members of the reptilian Rigellian species

The Rigellians are a species descended from a race of saber-toothed turtles who learned to walk upright. They range in height from about 1.75 meters to 2 meters or more.

Rigellians have attendants who serve, feed, and care for them. This gives the attendants the real power in Rigellian society. They only have one gender and reproduce by laying eggs.

When worn, armor serves a mainly ceremonial function.
