Editing SHUUMAR

SHUUMAR&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Shuumar are a heavy gravity race that has recently broken the yoke of Imperial control.&nbsp;

Having recently cast off one overlord, the Shuumar feared immidiate absorbtion by one of the other

powers of the sector.&nbsp; The Shuumar treated the offers of allience by the Yaeger and the New Republic

with equaly serious consideration.&nbsp; However, they descided to&nbsp; strike out on thier own.&nbsp; During their

rebelion, they captured three Victory class Star Destroyers.&nbsp; With these ships as the nucleos of thier

fleet, the Shuumar and several other indipendants formed an Alliance, known as the Confederation of

Unaligned Worlds.&nbsp; The Shuumar have recently developed a high powered fighter that maximizes their

natural abilities.&nbsp; Using this Wulfen Heavy fighter, the ISDs, and the ships of their allies, the

Confederation has held off the Empire, the Chakh allience, and the occasional Yaeger pirates. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Shuumar are a fairly short and squat species, bowed by the weight of the heavy gravity of

thier homeworld, whose gravitational pull is 4.5x times standard. They stand around 1.5 meters tall,

and nearly as broad, with powerfull muscles covering thier entire frame.&nbsp; They are hairless, with green

irridescent pebble&nbsp; like skin covering thier entire body, except for a yellow irridescent patch on

their head and chest area.&nbsp; The Shuumar are philosophers, who tend to move slowly and contemplate every

possible course of action.&nbsp; This is one of the reasons that thier descision not to join the New

Republic or the Yaeger Nation has been considered so important.&nbsp; If the Shuumar think that total

indipendance is the best option, it very well might be.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Attribute Dice: 11D<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Attribute Min/Max<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; DEX:&nbsp; 1D/2D+2<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; KNO:&nbsp; 2D+1/4D+1<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; MECH: 1D/3D<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; PER:&nbsp; 2D/3D<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; STR:&nbsp; 3D/6D<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; TECH: 1D/3D<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Move:&nbsp; 12/16, <br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Special Abilities: &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * Heavy Gravity Homeworld:&nbsp; As the gravity of Shuua is 4.5x standard, they have a remarkable

resistance to the effects of the pressures of of acceleration.&nbsp; They treat 9g as 2, and so on.&nbsp; In

addition, they move on the surface of standard gravity worlds in powerfull bounding leaps that cover a

remarkable amount of ground. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * Swimming:&nbsp; The Shuumar's high density muscles and bones makes it impossible for them to swim no

matter how much training they have.&nbsp; In fact, they sink like a stone in liquid H2O, and will drown if

not rescued. <br />&nbsp;&nbsp; Story Factors:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * Reputation:&nbsp; Shuumar are known as being sagacious individuals with a clear grasp of complex

situations.&nbsp; However, they are known for their accuracy of thought, and not for their quickness of

thought, and fast talking con-men often see Shuumar as easy marks.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * Lifespan:&nbsp; Shuumar are long lived, with an average lifespan of around 500 standard years.&nbsp; They

mate for life, and have an average of 7 children over thier entire lifespan.
