Krogan

Krogan have always had a tendency to be selfish, unsympathetic, and blunt. They respect strength and self-reliance and are neither surprised nor offended by treachery. The weak and selfless do not live long. In their culture, "looking out for number one" is simply a matter of course. Krogan have powerful territorial instincts which serve them well in combat, but can create problems; when traveling on starships, for example, krogan find sharing quarters nearly impossible. Female krogan rarely leave Tuchanka, as the salarian genophage has birthrates down to one in one thousand and the population is in decline enough as is. Krogan names are read as Clanname Givenname and tend to be short and gutteral sounding.
