The Risians (occasionally Risans) are a humanoid race from the planet Risa. The Risan language is very difficult and very few visitors actually learn it. Risians are extremely close to Humans in appearance, but do have a small mark on their forehead as well as a different internal biology, which rendered Human treatment at Risian hospitals difficult in the 2150s.

The "Festival of the Moon", or Lohlunat, was a very popular celebration among the Risian people. The mysterious sexual practice of jamaharon was considered extremely pleasant -- wanting it was indicated with a statue called Horga'hn, which would become a symbol of the culture on the planet.

A Risian woman was present at Morn's memorial in 2374. (DS9: "Who Mourns for Morn?")
