Characteristically, Atlantians have always been a warrior race. They developed such techniques as the Hoplite, the Phalanx, and other major army units and troop formations used often on ancient Earth. However, they have come to know peace since the old days, and enjoy it. They are extremely patriotic...and will kill anything that threatens their families and homes. Most Atlantians are trained in at least one form of self defense—many of them including blades or guns. They are also extremely elitist. Most races must prove their worth before the Atlantians will think of them as equals. And as such, most Terran nations have yet to do this. Because of this, Atlantians very rarly have anything to do with the Sol system in general.

Atlantians stand between 6 and 7 feet in height, and weigh around 200 pounds. They have deeply tanned skin, much like those of the Native Americans on Earth (or the middle Eastern peoples), and have silver hair, as geneticly, they have very little hair coloring. The average lifespan of an Atlantian is about 200 Earth years, although some are known to live to 300.

A little known fact about Atlantians—they have a third gender. The third gender, although they have shown some signs of intelligence, have been widely regarded as non-sentient.
