    I'd use a standard Human template, maybe with +2 Empathy instead of +2 Willpower, and with only 4 courage points like Bajorans, as well as the Sexy Davantage.. The small mark on their foreheads is a cultural affectation, indicating to other Risians the individual's status. Risians are hedonistic by nature. Common skills for Risians would be Artistic Expression, Persuasion (Storytelling), Charm (Seduction), Psychology and so forth. Risians tend to have negative Agression Renown and high Openness Renown. Risians with Psi tend to be trained in Projective and/or Receptive Empathy, but Risians with Psionics are no more (or less) common than Psionic Humans. Risians commonly have the Code of Honour (Risian Sexual Ethics) -2 Disadvantage. Risians may enter any field of endeavour, but are often employed in the entertainment or hospitality industries. Risian scientists are acknowledged masters of climate control, otherwise Risa would have a climate similar to that of Ferenginar. Instead, they have transformed their planet into a world-wide subtropical paradise.

    I haven't done an exact count, but I think it works out.

    RISAN .
    By Greg Davis


    Famous throughout the Federation, as well as other civilized, spacefaring species, for their sensual natures and desire for pleasure, the Risan people provide a valuable service to the citizens of the Federation. A highly personable and socially graceful people, the Risans are also skilled artisans, as well as being dedicated to their chosen role, that of pleasure providers to those who would visit their beautiful, picturesque home planet of Risa.

    Thanks, I am creating a half human/half Risan character. This'll help a lot.
