From Episode D6: Star Wars D6 Wiki
Spiner

Species: Spiner
Home Planet: Worxer

Spiner
Spiners were nearly extinct bipedal sentient mammals with sharp quills. They were capable of hurling these with great speed and accuracy by flexing their muscles in a certain manner. Their native world, Worxer, was destroyed when its sun went supernova. The surviving population gradually became sterile for a lack of nutrients found exclusively in their home sector of Elrood.

Special Abilities:
Quills: Spiners can launch a burst of quills at a target using their Thrown Weapons: Quills skill (range: 2/5/10m, damage 2D). The quills grow back, but a Spiner is only able to make 4 such attacks within a single 24 hour period.

Story Factors:
Dying Race: Spiners suffer from a genetic flaw that prevents them from reproducing anywhere but their homeworld. As their homeworld was destroyed by a supernova, their species will inevitably disappear.
