Gluss'sa'Nikto, also known as Pale Nikto, represented a distinct subspecies within the Nikto lineage. Originating from the Gluss'elta Islands located on Kintan, their geographic roots fostered inherent seafaring abilities. Their physical characteristics included white-gray skin, horn-like protrusions above their eyes resembling those of the Kadas'sa'Nikto, and smaller fins akin to the Esral'sa'Nikto. Xenobiologists theorized that the initial Gluss'sa'Nikto arose from the union of a Kadas'sa'Nikto and an Esral'sa'Nikto.
