Low Light Vision: Mantellian Savrips can see twice as far as a normal human in poor lighting conditions.
Poison: Savrips inject a paralytic poison with their bite. Anyone successfully bitten by a Mantellian Savrip must make a Difficult Strength check. Failure indicates that they take poison damage equal to the Savrip's Str+1D+1, and are paralyzed and unable to move for 4D6 rounds.
Reach: Due to the Mantellian Savrip's extended reach, Savrip characters can attack targets up to 4 meters away with their claws.

Story Factors:
Primitive: Because they are a primitive species, beginning Mantellian Savrip characters may not place any skill dice in any vehicle operations, starship operations, or repair skills. Savrip characters who are primitive gain a +2D+2 bonus to Survival skill checks, and a +2 bonus on Sneak skill checks. Upon learning any technical skills, however, the Savrip is considered to have been "civilized." Civilizing a Savrip results in a loss of the Sneak skill bonus, and a reduction of the Survival bonus to +1D+1.
