- This article is about the species. For the vehicle, see RML-447 Nolan.
The Nolan is a four-armed, two-legged, three meter tall creature that is native to Engadine. They're nasty and protected with a thick hide which possesses chameleon-like abilities that allow it to blend into its surroundings. Each of the arm ends in a three fingered hand equipped with sharp claws. A victim of its bite will die in a few minutes if not treated. They travel in packs of three to five animals, and will keep attacking even when presented with gunfire.[1] If left unchecked, nolans will attack villages and humans. This behavior led to the formation of "The Rooting", a yearly hunt where humans track and kill nolans.[2]
The creatures are noted for their incredible speed, clawed hands and jaws. They are difficult to transport alive from their homeworld.[3]
Only one known Nolan has been ever transported off planet, which was seen on Adhafera, at a alleged run-down "Canopian Pleasure Circus".
