	Kzin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kzinti evolved from a plains hunting cat, stole their current space-faring technology, and bred (most of) their own females into sub-sapience.
		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.
		Kzinti are thought to have influenced the creation of the similarly Felinoid Kilrathi, the primary antagonists of the popular Wing Commander video game series of early-to-mid-nineties.

	Kzinti History
		Klingon commander Kumerian destroys Kzinti Shuttle Squadron #26, and is promoted to command the D6 battlecruiser "Destruction." The Klingon D6 "Devastator" operates as an experimental semi-carrier and conducts several raids on the Kzinti frontier to test fighters.
		The Kzinti double-cross the WYN and destroy the WYN E4 Klingon-style escort.
		The Kzinti are at the point of suing for peace on any terms they could get when the Federation, alarmed at the prospect of a Klingon Empire that could nearly equal its economic power, began taking a serious interest in the war.

	Kzin - D&D3 Stats - Saltwave RPG Campaign
		The kzinti (singular kzin, adjective kzin) are a race of powerfully muscled hunting felines massing between 350 and 500 pounds and standing erect at 6½' to 8' tall.
		Kzinti are very quick for their size, and have the Combat Reflexes, Improved Initiative, and Weapon Focus (greatsword) feats.
		Kzinti have a fairly high child mortality rate, as the very rough games of the youngsters lead to accidents and deaths.

		The Kzinti High Command rejected the idea, citing the advanced stage of planning for the CV and the lack of DD hulls.
		The Kzintis had found the need for one during war, when a number of their ships were destroyed before they could be safely towed to regular repair stations.
		Kzinti admirals were no more satisfied with the design then they had been over a decade earlier with the BF.

	Events of the "Cold War" SFB Alternate History
		The Kzintis were at the point of suing for peace on any terms they could get when the Federation, alarmed at the prospect of a Klingon Empire that could nearly equal its economic power, began taking a serious interest in the war.
		The remaining Kzinti forces were scattered to the Federation- protectorate of the Marquis, the WYN cluster, or the distant Barony (the coreward territory, "off-map" in FandE).
		Kzinti privateers soon began operating, organizing a number of massive assaults, suddenly overwhelming their targets and quickly disappearing.

	Essay - Incorporating Kzinti Into ST:TNG RPG (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Now you COULD fit the Enterprise's encounter with the Kzinti somewhere in that time period..except that from the episode, the look and feel of the Enterprise, and the crew members involved, were clearly intended to be from later in the series.
		What I then propose is that the Kzinti "Wars" (which are likely considered wars mainly by the Kzinti) were fought between 2161 and 2264; during the first wave of expansion after the establishment of the Federation, Federation ships ran into the Kzinti in a star cluster near the area of colonization.
		Kzinti and Klingons probably get along pretty well now; two warrior races in a galaxy where warrior races are vanishing...their cultures likely much more similar than they are different.

	Kzinti Information
		The Kzinti are physically large (usually 2.5 meters tall), and they have a preference for unarmed (natural claws and teeth) combat.
		Kzinti, while being honorable by their own standards, tend to consider other races to be inferior to them, and consider eating dead sentient beings to be acceptable (but then, Klingons have odd diets at times as well).
		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.

		Kzinti use a Base 8 numbering system, owing to their four-digit hands.
		Kzinti litters are almost always composed of twins, one male and one female.
		Some Kzinti have telepathic powers, usually of a limited nature but can be gratly enhanced by using an injection of Sthondat lymph extract, which is highly addictive and usually burns out the addict.

		Ancient Kzinti females (re: Cathouse, MKW I), were just as intelligent as the males, but they proved too bothersome to the patriarchal and stronger males.
		Kzinti telepaths are easily identified by their unkempt appearance, matted fur, and bouts of shivering.
		Kzinti diplomats are often provided with these secrets, and many know more of mankind's relation to the Pak than most humans.

	The General War
		While the Kzintis demanded such a campaign, the Federation was making the decisions and felt that such a campaign would only leave the Kzintis in a better position for negotiations to end the war on Coalition terms (which may have been the actual Kzinti goal).
		The Kzintis, reasoning that their job was to screen and that they had eliminated everything worth screening, withdrew on the pretext of a minor Klingon attack on the Kzinti front.
		The Kzintis also considered the key victory of the Operation Remus campaign (that of their own expeditionary fleet) to have been a matter of sheer luck that could not be counted on again.

		The Kzinti are a catlike humanoid race, averaging six feet in height, with superior hearing, sight, and smell in comparison to humans.
		One odd quirk of Kzinti history is the absence of any real alien contact, even with the Things from Beyond, until the Kzinti set out into the universe.
		The Silurian Empire, around 4,956 to 4,053 BC was the first to unite the Kzinti, who have remained loosely united through a succession of empires since then, with interludes of chaos and warring states.

	History of Saltwave
		What is known is that the reluctance of the kzinti to jump into battle against the humans allowed both races to become established on Saltwave.
		The kzinti had recently been defeated in a minor war, trade and communication with the human-held Highlands Federation had been reestablished, and piracy and fl magic was in steep decline.
		The kzinti lost none of their cities, but were instead subject to wave after wave of invading mechanical death machines.

		The Kzinti’s Duke Lontak invaded the Gorn Confederaiton with the intent of holding some rich planets for himself to profit on and aroggantly refused to leave when the Gorn cruisers told him too.
		The Kzintis thought they found an opening when the Gorn attacked an invader known as the Federation, but was dismayed when they made a peace treaty instead.

		This is an exciting and imaginative story - the inventiveness and sense of wonder which good SF should have, with touches of irony and humor.
		The Kzinti are not all bad - paving the way, perhaps, for the human-kzin interfaces of Man-Kzin IX and X. The idea of the "Zoo" planet is full of possibilities.
		Kzinti anatomy and proportions are quite different from those of humans, and sufficiently described in the book.

		Kzinti eyes are remarkably human, and they have round pupils instead of slitted pupils, like a terrestrial cat.
		Their ears are hairless and multi-pointed, held flat against their heads while they are calm or fanning out like parasols when angry or listening intently for the sound of prey.
		Kzinti mouths are full of needle-like teeth for tearing raw flesh.

		Anyway, I really liked the character Grass Eater, because it shows a whole new side of the Kzinti, and gives insight into who they really are.
		You see that even the mightiest warriors among them are not fearless, but are basically brutalized from birth into constant fights for survival that is the basis for their entire society.
		Ironically, Niven goes far out of his way in the introduction to Man-Kzin Wars IV to criticize a parody of his work and claim ownership of "his" fictional universe.

		Following the Man-Kzin Wars, the Kzinti Patriarchy is forced to adapt to life without their slave races and within the limits imposed by the victorious humans.
		Dissatified with centuries of bowing to human custom and being a minor influence, at best in interstellar politics, a number of Kzinti nobles led a civil war to overthrown the Patriarchy in favor of a government in which all of the noble families would have a sat, the so-called Kzinti Republic.
		The last Patriarch of the Kzinti was dead on their homeworld, and the government was firmly in the hands of the usurpers.

		A hyperdrive ship was dispatched to warn Sol system of the threat; the resources of Earth and the Belt were then directed against the kzinti invaders, who were helpless against the faster human ships.
		Eventually (in Ringworld) we learn that the Kzinti were deliberately led to encounter humanity by the Pierson's Puppeteers, who lured the Outsiders to Wunderland in the first place.
		This shift in kzinti attitudes has in fact occurred, although the kzinti themselves do not think very highly of the changes.

		From what I understand, this is how the the Kzinti Gravity Drive (KGD) works: There is a supply of "monopoles" (remembering names from memory so please forgive me) aboard the ship which can be projected in any direction outside of the ship.
		I do not remember off hand in which book it is described (it's one of the early ones), but it takes Larry Niven's original very brief description of gravity polarizer and expands on it.
		I was trying to explain this as the Kzinti using some sort of projector to project a magnetic field in front of the ship which pulls it..

	SpecGram--Notes on the Kzinti Language--Arthur Saxtorph
		Now, though, the situation has changed, and we have a chance to consider the Kzinti and their language, and what that tells us about the workings of their minds, and in turn perhaps the workings of our own minds.
		Though the actual acoustic properties of Kzinti sounds vary from those of the prototypical sounds of earth languages, researchers should nonetheless be able to recognize the phonemes in actual speech which correspond to the symbols used here.
		The original Circular Script (CS), the "commas and dots" described by the first to encounter the Kzinti, is probably designed for inscribing messages into the flesh of defeated adversaries with a Kzin claw.
