Special Abilities:
- When subjected to temperatures above 35 degrees Celsius, a "pure" Sebacean suffers 1 point of stun damage per turn. This stun damage does not heal until the temperature drops to 30 degrees Celsius or below. Once the stun damage has rendered the Sebacean character unconscious, they take 3 real damage per turn until they die or the temperature drops to 30 degrees Celsius or below. Sebacean offshoots do not suffer this penalty.
Description: Sebaceans are a bipedal species that largely resemble humans to the untrained eye. John Crichton (the only Human thus far who has made it into the Uncharted Territories as far as it is known) is often mistaken for a Sebacean.
Indeed, there are very few differences. One appears to be eyesight, which is seemingly an improvement on human eyesight. However, one detracting factor is that Sebaceans seem to have an intense intolerance for heat. When exposed to extreme heat, the Sebacean falls into a state commonly known as heat delirium. Left untreated, a comatose state called the Living Death sets in, reducing the Sebacean to a catatonic-like state. Once this Living Death takes over, Sebaceans will kill their own out of mercy.
The Sebacean spoken language, when heard by someone not injected with translator microbes, resembles the human language English spoken backwards.
