Species: Yimi
Home Planet: Kathol

Yimi:
The Yimi were a species of sentient, diminutive large-skulled humanoids that were indigenous to the world of Kathol. They were created by the DarkStryder and contained large brains which were flash printed with necessary skills. They were created to be extremely loyal to their creator. Despite their complex brains they were unable to learn new skills that were not flash printed. It was believed that the Yimi were crafted by DarkStryder to be twisted versions of the ancient Kathol themselves, as a cruel joke on its own creators.

Yimi
Attribute Dice: 10D
DEXTERITY 1D/3D
KNOWLEDGE 1D/2D
MECHANICAL 1D/3D
PERCEPTION 1D/2D
STRENGTH 2D/4D
TECHNICAL 2D/4D

Special Abilities:
Malaise: The Servants are congenitally sluggish, and cannot improve skills, although they can be flash-imprinted (see below).

Flash-Imprint Skills: The Servants, although not very bright, can be taught any skill by a “flash-imprinting” technique used by DarkStrider. Using the technique tends to scramble whatever other skills they already possess and redistributes their skill dice as DarkStryder desires. The flash-imprint process takes one Kathol day.

Obedience: The Servants are routinely flash-imprinted to obey DarkStryder. They are not willingly loyal: they just obey reflexively.

No Ta-Ree: The Yimi are unable to use Ta-Ree.

Story Factors:
The Servants hate DarkStryder. Although they must obey the despot, as per their imprinting, they don’t have to interpret its orders as it wishes, or aid it without specific instructions.

-The Yrashu were technologically primitive sapient beings indigenous to Baskarn. They were large baldheaded primates with green fur covering their bodies, and at first sight appeared intimidating.

-Yrashu were experts in jungle survival, passing on their skills to their young ones in a session called the momu, in which they would also teach their young ones to make Yrashu clubs from the roots of a great tree. The Yrashu exhibited their expertise in jungle survival in that they were able to climb the dangerous Razor trees of their planet.
-The Yrashu were Force-sensitive and were therefore generally open-minded with a loving disposition towards things, and did not kill unless the need for its was great and a matter of survival. With some exceptions – namely the tribe referred to as the Low Ones – they were a tolerant and gentle species.<br />

-Before the Battle of Baskarn, Yrashu had not been contacted by any spacefaring civilizations. However, they were receptive and open to relations, but it was required that diplomats be adopted into the tribe. They instinctively fought the Galactic Empire, as they could sense its ties to the Dark Side of the Force. In the events leading up to the Battle, a group of Rebels were adopted into a Yrashu tribe and went through a momu, in which they were taught jungle survival according to the Yrashu way. The tribe participated in the battle, and emerged victorious along with the Rebels. <br />

-'''Special Skills:'''<br />

-''Stealth:'' All Yrashu receive +2D when sneaking in the jungle.  They are almost impossible to spot when they don’t want to be seen. Naturally, this bonus only applies in a jungle and it would take a Yrashu several days to learn an alien jungle’s ways before the bonus could be applied.<br />
