Racial Abilities

+ Cannot be burned by any degree of heat, this does not include other damages resulted from heat-based weaponry such as the explosive force of powerful plasma guns, however no molecule of their body can be seemingly burned, melted, or otherwise damaged by extreme natural temperatures, even those of magma or medium ranked plasma weapons, but can still be obliterated by high end beam weaponry namely Blazing and Sun.

+ They can fly with their powerful wings in gravity around earth's level or less.

+ They can breath flames from their mouth that is hot enough to melt steel.

+ They have a natural spear-like tip on their tail, sharp claws on all six limbs; I.E. Hands, feet, and tail, and have a jaw-strength that can bend iron bars.

+ They have a great sense of smell and vision, their eyes glow like dim candle flames in dark lighting, essentially allowing them to see in the dark.

Racial Downsides

- Being coldblooded they cannot tolerate cold temperatures, nor are they acclimated to anything but tropical or extreme heat environments. They get disadvantage at any degree below room temperature, at temperatures either near, at, or below freezing I. E. 45 F or lower, without any sort of protection from the cold can be fatal.

- The paler scales along the front chest, and underside of the body are half as durable as the rest of their natural armor.

- Their awkwardly large hands make it nearly impossible for them to wield conventionally weaponry or equipment made by other races. They are for the most part, forced to use their natural weaponry in addition to whatever primitive equipment or make-shift armor they can craft with natural elements, such as a stone spear or minimal iron-cast armor. The only exceptions are any very fortunate and very wealthy individuals who could receive custom-made equipment from engineers, as they themselves are too primitive to make their own advanced technology gear.

- While they have a strong sense of smell with their forked tongue foul-smelling chemicals and other strongly odored scents aside from rotting flesh can irritate them, giving them temporary disadvantage.

- Their large size can make it difficult to maneuver in even the average sized hallways or rooms of smaller races without having to crawl or hunch over.

-They take a very long time to mature, about 60 years. This also makes them effectively lowly populated.

Name: Jackal Westari

Age: 94

Race: Gorgas
9'5" in height, 821 lbs.

Career: Mercenary



Personality: Jackal was born a runt of the litter, though even being smaller then the lowest average Jackal is still a fierce monster in combat. He follows much of the race's ideology of honor. While he works as a mercenary, he refuses to work for tasks that would involve shady business. He is more so a wandering soldier. He loves the thrill of 'hunting', as he treats targeted enemies as 'prey' in a sense. However, he is quick to develop a 'brotherly' companionship with allies. As part of his honorable ideology, those that he is allied with are often treated initially as friends, and he is strictly against any sort of idea that would suggest betraying an ally. Those that break his trust will be the victims of unrelenting fury. He is of little words but of much action, though he isn't shy to converse with others if prompted to do so. Outside of his friends however, he has a thrill of violence and bloodshed, especially with the thought of consuming the raw flesh of his enemies.

Background: Jackal was much smaller then most Gorgas, and as such, he was treated as a runt by the rest of his kin on his home planet. Seeking better treatment he took to the stars to explore the stars and make a name for himself in the likes of other factions, be it friend or foe. However so far his jobs have been minimal effort and not very influential. It is difficult to find those that are even willing to calmly speak to Jackal, who even as a runt towers above most other intelligent races.

Faction Relations: N/A while he has performed some tasks for smaller groups of pirates and even joined different mercenary groups, he has no proper influence with any of the large and important factions as of yet.

Equipment:

Head
------------------
He has an iron-cast helmet that offers more so of decoration then protection, as his tough scales are just as durable as the gear.

----------------

Chests

-------------
He has an iron-cast chest piece that does protect his vulnerable, soft scales on his front facing torso, a pair of iron leggings, and a traditional leather belt of his culture. (as seen in the photo) Which were all hand crafted and smelted by Jackal himself and his fire-breath.
--------------
Weapons
--------------
He has a steel wrist-shield the shape of a triangle and a large 7 ft steel sword that were also hand-made and large enough to fit the large proportions of the Gorgas.

-----------------
Augmentations/medical robots and genetic alterations.

N/A
------------------
Tools
-----------------
N/A

-----------
BackPack
-------------

3 large hand-crafted canteen bottles, packets of several various meats of unknown origin, like an amalgamation of flesh from aliens he has killed in the past and storing for consumption with an abundance of salt as a preservative for the meat. He also has a pendant with a frame of his home planet's sun that has a serpentine dragon coiling around it, a religious symbol.

---------------------------------

Yul hold unique technologies comparable only to human science in the field of biology. They have mastered their own biostructure and tempered their environment to suit them best. However, through pursuing this biological goal, they have very little knowledge in areas such as nuclear physics and such 20th-21st century human discoveries.

Yul hold no strong faith to any divine power, though it is a point made in many elder meetings that divine power may be a possibility. The only recognised power outside of their own is that of their creators, an ancient race said to be descendants from their home planets neighbour. Their constellation is scattered with evidence of their existence, though no data has been uncovered as to their science or society.

Yul are an extremely neutral party to both the human and coalition. The Elder council refuses to hide the universe from its people, thus the race is scattered among allegiances, beliefs and enemies. However, Yul have an extremely adhesive cultural connection, they are all ultimately of the same race and thus of the same people's

Despite this openness, no other interstellar race has set foot on Yulxiz, their home world. All business and communication is conducted upon the ‘Bhalthar’, a moon sized space station in artificial orbit of Yulxiz. Access is allowed for diplomats and traders for the most part, but citizens of the galaxy who prove to be useful for their professions are also admitted access. It is rumoured that to touch Yulxiz Earth is to be marked for death.

Yul live underground on their mother planets as the surface is less than malleable for growth and expansion. As such their activities are unknown and theories circulate as to their intents for the other races. It is said they have a specimen of every race in Yulxiz biological bays. Coalition propaganda has gone as far as to say they know the anti-material sequence for every race they encounter.

Yul are mysterious and many cultures harbor superstitions towards them, in fear and awe alike, little is known so assumptions are made.
+Intimidation and deception bonus.
+Charismatic influence bonus for races with intelligence of four or less.

Yul blood is biologically sequenced to maintain liquid structure and fluidity while inside the Yul anatomy and circulation system. Once it exits the body it becomes gaseous and in most cases toxic for other organisms.
+When Yul are injured, the atmosphere around them becomes toxic. Causes nausea and internal damage to creatures with a constitution of three or less. Damages most biological structures (EG eyes and skin) over time, no matter the constitution score.

The muscular tail of the Yul, usually curled up beside the spine for protection, can be used to balance during many tasks and activity.
+Bonus to balance during acrobatic and athletic activities.
+Reduction in recoil when the tail can be deployed as a counterbalance.
.

Yul have evolved to scale uneven terrain and rocky environments, as such they cannot swim.
-Disadvantaged in aquatic environments.

Concussive impacts such as grenades and direct connection with the upper forehead disorient Yul completely as their frontal lobe is surrounded by a semi-flexible cartilage that can pressure the brain if shifted too suddenly.
-Weakness to concussive attacks.

Yul, while intelligent, do not express themselves through speech or written language, thus have no verbal capability and a very limited capacity for writing/reading.
- Disadvantage when reading languages.
- Unable to speak.
- Must purchase a ULS interpreter pad to speak or read.
+ Can communicate through atmospheric chemicals with each other.

While the Yul tail can be useful, during movement in enclosed or narrow places, it can proves to be a hindrance.
-disadvantage to Dex in small spaces.

If open wounds are left for too long a Yul must rest and heal as their body undergoes a detoxifying process.
-wounds must be tended to quickly to maintain normal activities.
- healing can take up to and exceeding a full day of theta wave sleep.

You can gain a HINT like this when an artificial security system is in 5 meters of you and not in combat/or currently being hit.

When rolling/ jumping or diving into cover. You gain +2 to your auto dodge.

Old Enemies: You are identified and known which can lead to random encounters with possible enemies new and old.

Hit-man Hunted: The nature of killing is that it breeds killers. People out for revenge, from alien peasants to criminals will send other hit men to kill you.

Identified Murder Death Kill: You are of suspect by human and alien authorities alike. Expect to get harassed by security constantly. Terminal checks up will be a pain in the ass and you don't want to be caught by the guards at a place where the law process is swift and cruel.

Contacts: you have contacts to a small guild of assassin operatives from your years of work. Every mission, as long as you have signal. You may make 1 protected, un-hackable call to them and ask for a piece of information. Or, you may ask for a false ID at the cost of 2500 credits. Allowing you bypass the "Identified" debuff, as long as you don't do anything to blow your cover. This ID is lost when your cover is blown or at the end of the mission. Deleted, so the operatives won't be traced.
