Special abilities:

Singing/dancing: B'harnii are notorious for their ability to captivate children through singing and dancing. B'harnii get a +15 to any attempt to get and hold the attention of a child (using _persuasion_ skill) or to _con_ a child. Adult characters get a +10 to resist such attempts, and are usually annoyed by them.

Story Factors:

Emslavement by the Empire: Like Mom Cals and Wookiees, B'harnii have been enslaved by the Empire...to teach kids that Imperial Authority Is A Good Thing, that Stormtroopers Are Your Special Friends. Of course, the Empire brainwashes the B'harnii before turning him/her loose to teach children.

The Jihad:   A few see B'harnii as spawn of evil due to their ability to influence the minds of the young, and to that end have formed a secret organization, the Jihad, to eradicate all B'harnii through genocide.

B'harnii (singular and plural are the same word) are native to "The Hole," a terrestrial world in the contested Valar Cluster. B'harnii are bipedal, bilaterally-symmetrical reptilian creatures, purple in color, with ample flesh, a large tail and soft, velour-like skin. B'harnii are capable of speaking Basic and of Force-use.
Child Loyalty: B'harnii have +20 to any attempt to _Command_ a child.Teaching: B'harnii make excellent teachers for children. Kids learn twice as fast from B'harnii.

Player-characters made with the Kid template are excluded.... Blaster-Bolt Magnet: If a B'harnii is in a group of characters under attack -- or _near_ such a group, random blaster fire has a 100% chance of being directed at a B'harnii.
