| RATTATAKI The Rattataki are a Near-Human species characterized by their chalk-white skin and bald heads. They were virtually isolated from the rest of the galaxy. The pale-skinned Rattataki are made for battle. Centuries of constant warfare have weeded out the weak, shaping the remainder into proud, passionate, and deadly combatants. Even entertainment for this violent species is combat; the gladiator pits of their home planet, Rattatak, are the planet’s most popular amusement, well-known for being the most brutal in the galaxy. Exposed to their species’ competitive culture from birth, Rattataki develop into fearsome warriors.
Deep in the Outer Rim, the Rattataki species evolved in bleak isolation for thousands of years, clinging to existence in sprawling caverns beneath the planet’s surface. They were driven underground by monstrous beasts they believed were gods and savage storms that made the land nearly uninhabitable. In their subterranean exile, the Rattataki tribes fought amongst themselves incessantly over scarce resources, and many tribes even resorted to cannibalism. The weak and the sick were sacrificed so that the strong might survive and one day claim the surface world.
Eventually, the mighty warlord Rattatak managed to unite his people long enough to drive back the horrible beasts on the planet’s surface and establish mighty fortresses amidst the mountainous terrain. Though his life was lost in the struggle on the surface, Rattatak’s name lived on. The unification of the Rattataki was brief, and tribes settled back into their constant infighting, but at long last they had emerged from their dark exile and contact was made with the greater galaxy. This led many Rattataki to settle on other worlds, becoming sought after mercenaries, bodyguards and bounty hunters.RACE FEATURES Typical Alignment: Any Chaotic Average Height: 2m Skin Color: Chalk-white Hair Color: Born without any hair Eye Color: Varriers in levels between white, gray and black Average Lifespan: 100 standard yearsRACIAL TRAITS Attribute Bonus: Strength +2, Dexterity +2, Constitution +2 Skill Bonus: Survival +5 Saves Bonus: Fortitude +5 Size Category: Medium Forum Level up: 200xp
GLADIATOR: The Rattataki developed a violent society on their home planet of Rattatak, which involved extensive gladiatorial combat. With their experience, they learned to use all weapons, armors and shields. Rattataki is automatically proficient with all gear and gains rank 5 of Monkey Grip. No matter what weapon they choose to practice, a Rattataki learns to stand even after a defeat, because the warrior heart beats within their chest. In a turn that usually defeats a character, the Rattataki gains DR50% to try to survive the killing DPS. This is useable only once per battle.
