	Kzin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kzin females are sub-sapient, with a vocabulary of less than a hundred word/sounds and primarily instinct-driven behavior, and are treated a chattel property by males, although some stories imply that this was not always the case.
		After the Kzin telepath learned that the humans were unarmed and didn't even understand the concept of weapons, they attempted to kill the human crew in a slow, painful manner using an inductive heating weapon hoping to capture their ship intact for intelligence purposes.
		The first indication the Kzinti Patriarchy had that much of the Kzin empire was gone and that a significant percentage of all Kzinti had died was when human warships appeared in the skies above their homeworld.

		He was the one that caused the most damage to the village of Zignamuclikclik and were he not a part of the Docile Kzinti project, he probably would have leveled the village to the ground.
		Combat is a way of life for the Kzin and they have expanded a feudal society across many worlds through conquest.
		The Kzins' combat ability is only matched by their aggressiveness and avarice.

	Kzinti Information (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Kzin are known for their favored attack strategy, which is "Scream and Leap" (as in just scream and leap).
		Among the Kzin, names are given only to individuals who have been awarded that honor by the Patriarch, the ruler of all the Kzin.
		Kzinti technology development has been slowed by their distrust of pseudo-intelligent computers; the Kzin have ancient legends of weapons haunted by dead owners, and thus are reluctant to deal with machinery that talks.

	Galactic Encyclopedia: Kzinti
		Kzin is approximately the same size as the Earth and possesses a similar climate, although it is marginally warmer and thus the tropics extend ten more degrees on each side of the equator than is the case on Earth.
		Kzin legend claims that their world was the first world to be created at the beginning of time.
		It was chiefly inertia that preserved the Kzin empire, and the desire of the Juraiians for a buffer state.

		Individual Kzin can be distinguished from others by their exact coloring and individual markings such as an occaisional white patch, a fl mask around the eyes, a yellow stripe, a red spot, etc. Their rictus, though resembling a smile, is definitely an expression of anger.
		Because of this lack of intellegence, Kzin males often mistakenly assume all females, of whatever species, are no more intellegent than the "dumb animals" of their species, and therefore beneath their notice.
		Kzin, particularly the post-engineered "Heros" have long had the optimum means for controlling the size of their own populations, their own agressive nature.

		Kzin society is loosely based on a hereditary patriarchy whose leader is called "The Highest of the Kzin" in their native language.
		Most Kzin can be distinguished from others by their individual markings such as a white patch on the nose, a fl mask around the eyes, a yellow stripe, a red spot, etc. They also have round, rather than eliptical, shaped pupils.
		By the 23rd century the Kzin population is down to barely one-eighth of what it was before their first encounter with mankind and determined engagement in war.

		Exposed teeth are a traditional threat among kzin and while there have not been any incidents due to it since The Break grinning at the kzin is still not recommended--for that reason, most Scolopendrans tend not to grin, and especially do not around kzin.
		Culturally, all kzin are members of the Kzin Patriarchy (only currently called the "Patriarchy" due to its male head) which is responsible for maintaining kzin culture.
		Due to the historic high mortality rate of kzin children (no longer a concern due to the change in circumstances), they are not given names as most other children are at birth; instead, they take on the name of their parent with the suffix -Child and are constantly renamed through life to match their profession.

		Kzin are highly militaristic, fighting with a ferocity that makes other races quick to label them as barbarians.
		Kzin freely admit this happened in the past, "Our supply officers kept screwing up food shipments, and we had to 'live off the land.' " They are less vocal about it happening today, "You guys were fat from fast food then.
		It is said that the favorite Kzin battle strategy then was the "scream and leap" (perhaps they should have learned not to trip and fall on their faces while doing so).

	Man-Kzin Wars X: The Wunder War by Hal Colebatch - Jeremy Buxton - Quadrant Magazine
		Also strongly drawn is the veteran kzin warrior, Raagh—sufficiently valorous to attain the accolade of a Name yet possessing the prudence to escape the kzin propensity for reckless self-destruction.
		Without the irruption of the kzin, humankind would become entirely pacific and materialistic and would lose all sense of honour and spirituality—at the conclusion of “One War for Wunderland” the planet’s sole monastery becomes the focus of moral defiance of the conquerors.
		In turn the kzin as a race need for their own survival to be checked by the ingenuity and determination of valiant men and women; otherwise they could be consumed by their own savagery and arrogance.

	The Kzin Question: A speculation on Star Trek
		In the case of the Kzin, however, it was Niven himself who put the Kzin into the Trek universe with "The Slaver Weapon." Trek Kzin are going to be different from Known Space Kzin, because different forces shaped the two universes, different histories on the galactic scale.
		Because the limited Kzin "Wars" in the Star Trek universe were not as extensive as those in Known Space, the Kzin would not have lost as many of their aggressive males in the wars, and thus their genes would continue in the Kzin gene pool.
		Adding the Kzin to Star Trek broadens the mythology of that universe, putting in the "weird shit" that Gene Roddenberry wanted, non-humanoid intelligences, and a sense of deep history, that humanity is a relatively new (and in cosmic and historical terms, minor) player on the galactic stage.

	Bio of Zahn Z'Dark
		A Kzin much resembles a Terran cat with a long tail, standing on its hind legs or on all four.
		Kzins have roughly the same physical strength as Romulans or Klingons, faster reflexes and worse tempers.
		The Kzin Empire had been one of the first enemies the humans had and, although they had been at peace for over 250 years, the Kzin Empire never joined the United Federation of Planets.

		No, it is the character portrayal of two species at war and the excellent depiction and development of an alien Kzin's actions, thoughts and feelings amidst the bloodshed, attempted friendship, trust and betrayal.
		In all other Man-Kzin Wars' stories the Kzin are constantly portrayed as being extremely stupid, cruel and dumb, but in this one a few of them have real feelings and development and one feels for the Seareant Character and his losses and pains.
		The next story, "Music Box" is in some ways the best, telling how, after the war, some Kzin and humans strove to establish a lasting peace, against others on both sides who wanted the war fought to the bitter end.

		For those unfamiliar with the Man-Kzin Wars series, or Kzinti in general, the Kzin are an alien race created by Larry Niven, a spacefaring race evolved from carnivorous hunting cats instead of omnivorous monkeys.
		SF as it should be: hard science but an insight into the human condition that has a touch of poetry about it.
		The Kzin are neither too Alien to be convincing nor too human to be interesting, and the Man-Kzin interface is full of quirks and suspence.

		The other Kzin, slowed by his pain and bleeding, attempted to strike a blow to Shaper's kidneys, but Shaper seized his arm and tossed the Kzin over his shoulder, sending him sprawling along the mud- strewn ground face-first.
		He raped the losing Kzin, listening with pleasure to his howls of agony, watching as the other clawed desperately at the ground, trying to crawl away from the penetrating dishonor of Shaper's sex buried within his guts.
