Nuar

Resembling pale, short minotaurs, nuars are one of the orphan species of lost Golarion. Their size, strength, and natural weapons cause them to often be seen as brutes, but nuar have a nuanced society and a natural ability to envision and expand on complex patterns.

Most nuars consider Absalom Station to be their home world, as they believe their true planet of origin is Lost Golarion, and there’s a fair amount of evidence supporting this idea. While pre-Gap records have very few references to nuars as a species, there are occasionally notes referring to the “legacy of Nuar,” or “Nuar the Minotaur Prince of Absalom” capitalized as a proper name, in some of the last histories written of Golarion prior to the first years of the Gap. While that alone is far from definitive, when the Gap ended, there were nuars only in the Pact Worlds, and the majority were on Absalom Station.
