The Rigellians are 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. (Star Trek: The Motion Picture)
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.
- Details about this species, including their name, comes from notes created by Fred Phillips and Robert Fletcher for Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Template:NonCanonValid
Apocrypha
In some novels these Rigellians are presumed to come from the same solar system - Rigel - as the Rigelians; their specific species being "Chelon," or "Rigellian Chelon."
