Nomadica
Troubadour
That might work for some, but I would never write a race in just to be a "foe." If any sort of group is going to be added to my world they need to be fully realized, living breathing people within the world. And "they'd be mildly more impressive in certain specific fight scenes" is not enough of a reason to make an organization a different species.
I don't mean just to creat a foe. its just an example of one way they cane be interesting. When I think of my favorit fictitious species, klingon on star trek, I just can't imagine Worf being the same if he was human. Klingons really enriched the stories for me. Though I know I am looking nerdy now Sometimes part of it is about creating ambiance. The world I'm building is on another planet so it seems fitting to make it a little strange, though thats not the only reason I like creating othe humanoids.
