The '''Nicassar''' are a [[psychic]] [[xenos]] race who were the first addition to the [[T'au Empire]].{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|Canon ConflictConflicting sources}}

Their spaceships are known as [[Dhow]]s and are small, maneuverable, yet elegant yachts propelled by the [[psychic]] powers of the captain. But the Nicassar lack any real interstellar capability. As such, they are often towed by [[T'au]] ships, and also provided with upgraded T'au weaponry, or they will travel slowly for centuries while in hibernation. Often for a longer journey a Nicassar family will join together to form a larger community, with crew alternating between hibernation.{{Fn|1}}

==Trivia==
While the Nicassar were originally said to be the first race to join the Tau Empire, [[6th Edition]] lore states that the [[Poctroon]] were in fact the first (though they quickly died out).{{Fn|9}}
