The Karran
« on: January 13, 2010, 03:39:02 PM »
INFO: The Karrans were sapient ant-eaters indigenous to Karra.


RACE: Karran
HEIGHT: 2 to 2.5 Meters Tall
SKIN: Light brown to black
DISTINCTION: Resembled bipedal ant-eaters
LANGUAGE: Karrian

HOMEWORLD:
Karra was the Karran homeworld. It was briefly colonized by the Mineral Assets Partnership in 500 BBY. Later, the Galactic Empire established varmigio mines on the planet. Both offworld settlements were destroyed by swarms of insects controlled by the Karran hive-mind.

Karra had a diverse array of insectoid fauna, including swarmers, karran beetles, karran mantises, and legworms.

BIOLOGY AND APPEARANCE:
The Karrans were large and lumbering insectivores. Their bodies were roughly cone-shaped, starting with a narrow snout and widening down to large thick legs and hindquarters. They had four-fingered hands with long claws and no thumbs, which limited their manual dexterity.



CULTURE AND HISTORY:
The Karrans had an almost hive-mind mentality, and individuality could quickly be suppressed in deference to the community will.

APPEARANCES:
None
