I would love to have you. Here's what you will need to know about races. Races
&Backgrounds
I
will be using homebrewed rules for this, players will have two backgrounds one
a racial background and two a occupational background. I have tried to balance
out all the racial backgrounds so they will add up to 0 points so pick
wisely, You may pick almost any occupational background in the book, just run
it by me first, furthermore if your occupational background lacks skill bonuses
such as those found in the sci-fi chapter or somehow overlaps with your racial please
tell me so that I can make the necessary adjustments. Their will also be soem unique racial occupational backgrounds if your interested.
Travelers
“Well that’s just great! Now I have to shoot you in
the face.” – Joseph Smith Anderson Captain of the Exodus
Overview: Calling themselves “Hoo-mons” Travelers
are a race of “fleshy” brown skinned primates from a world destroyed by the
life cycle of its star. Seeking refuge amongst the stars the Travelers
journeyed in stasis aboard three ships the Genesis, the Exodus, and the
Revelation. In hopes to Terraform and colonize a new world only to find it
already inhabited by another species. After an Awkward exchange the Travelers
decided it would be best not to make enemies out of the technologically
advanced inhabitants of the planet, and with little hope left found themselves
forced to acclimate to the rules of their new reality. Now a race of space
fairing nomads on a quest for a new home, the Travelers use their now
significantly more impressive fleet of ships to search for a new home world.
Customs: Travelers where overly reliant on technology
long before the death of their home world, a strange trait for a species so fearful of
synthetic life, furthermore despite having brought with them a varied number of
religions from their home world, they as a culture seem baffled by the very existence
of magic.
Ability Modifiers: -1 Con.
Bonus Feats: Adaptation (Low Gravity), Iron Will.
Favored Feats: Improvised Tools, Jack of All trades Kit
“Love thy neighbor with a side of beans” –Kit Humor.

tropical and arid world, and possess a thin coat of fur, Catlike eyes and
noses, as well as, Lynx like ears, and long tails. The Kit are a deeply
spiritual people who feel a closeness to nature, so much so that Kit believe through communion with nature they can connect
with their Deity Asisse, the all spirit. Furthermore Kit are a fiercely independent
and traditional culture, going as far as to found the Coalition of Independent Worlds
in an effort to maintain their independence from foreign authority.
Customs: Kit traditionally make use of living ships, are Matriarchal,
Polygamist (One man and three wives, despite a culture primarily run by women),
and practice cannibalistic burial rituals, not made better by their tendency to
have dark senses of humor that inevitably lead to them making jokes about said
cannibalistic burial rites.

Dratha "LONG LIVE THE FEDERATION!" -Uninspired last words of a Drathan Patriot
Overview: Dratha are an amphibious race of aquatic
mammals, hailing from the same world as the Kit. With smooth blue grey skin,
pitch black eyes, and a mouth full of sharp teeth, Dratha come off as a grim
natured and malicious species. However that is not always the case, just most
of the time. Dratha believe that one must dominate nature in order to survive
and have little reverence for the natural world, furthermore prominent Drathan
culture believes one must devote oneself to the greatness of their society as a
whole and reject independence and the concept of gods. It is to that end that
the Dratha have formed the Federation of “Democratic” Planets so that they
might spread their superior customs to the rest of the galaxy for its own good.
Customs: The Majority of Dratha live in service to the
federation whether they like it or not, indoctrinated and trained to take on a
role of their nations choosins, Dratha live their lives for the Honer and glory
of the federation in hopes that their children may someday surpass them. In
addition most Dratha are taught to despise the Kit whom exiled them from their original
home world.
Issites: Issites are a Drathan counter culture that
continues to worship the Deity Iss despite its illegality. The Issite belief
system is not dissimilar from that of the Kit, if noticeably less cannibalistic,
and Monogamistic. Its worthy of note that Issite Monistaries are allowed on the
Kit/Dratha Homeworld.

Ullgoth
“Blood of the Ancestors!” –Popular Ullgothi Expletive
Overview: A reptilian warrior race Hailing from a
nearly uninhabitable wasteland planet, Ullgothi tower over smaller sapient species
their chiseled hairless bodies covered in gleeming green or orange scales, looking down
with ferocious reptilian eyes as they smile sinisterly their sharp tusks jutting
out from the sides of their mouth. Even Ullgothi religion reflects their
savagery most Ullgothi follow a vicious form of Ancestor worship, believing that
the spirit of their ancestors lives on in their blood. The Ullgothi where
unwittingly unleashed upon the galaxy by the machinations of the Federation who
hoped to use the savage race as a foot soldiers, and while that effort did
achive some small measure of success most Ullgothi chose to make use of stolen
Federation technology to take their bloody conquest to the stars!
Customs: Most Ullgothi spend their time pilfering
the vessels of anyone unfortunate enough to cross their path, However there are
those who have set their sights to more civilized enterprise as gangsters. Even
Ullgothi Blood Shamans are known to live amongst Ullgothi raiders raiding and pillaging
alongside their savage brothers. Still not all Ullgothi are bloodthirsty
savages or vicious gangster, after all every litter has its runt!
Federation Ullgothi: Still the federation was not without
success and there are many Ullgothi living happily as the blunt instruments of the
Federation.

mischief. Ifzir Posses an uncanny sense of awarness that seems to border on
clairvoyance as well as a unique empathic nature, that seems to carry over to
Ifziran religion, which seems to revolve around what they call the six
prime emotions Anger, Joy, Sorrow, Fear, Resolve, and Desire. A Passionate,
prank loving people with a strong sense of tradition the Ifzir enjoy life to
the fullest and normally associate with the Coalition or Ullgothi Cartels.

not? Though as empath’s Ifzir will be the first to say when a jokes gone too

Android-Synthetic
Lore: While rare due to the arguable immorality of

sapient androids in the past.
Info:Currently I do not have the materials required to allow synthetic player
characters. However if someone is willing to do the work and find the materials
necessary to allow for such characters I will allow for such a character. If you ahve troubel reading this please tell em.
