Gamorrean Miscellany

This post presents some equipment peculiar to, or useful, Gamorreans, along with two new creatures.

Creatures of Gamorr
The planet Gamorr is known for a number of distinctive creatures, some of which are presented below.

Watch-Beast (Rival)
Brawn 4 Cunning 3 Presence 2
Agility 2 Intellect 1 Willpower 3

Soak: 6
Wound Threshold: 16
Strain Threshold: 12
M/R Defense: 0 / 0

Skills: Athletics 3, Brawl 3, Perception 2, Vigilance 2
Talents: None

Abilities: Silhouette 2; Adversary 1

Equipment: Bite (Brawl; Damage 6; Critical 3; Range [Engaged])

Watch-beasts are predators that have been domesticated by the Gamorreans for use in protecting their homes. They are large in stature—easily the size of a speeder—with four thick legs, stout horns and a mouth full of sharp teeth. They are keenly aware of their surroundings, and tend to attack any creature other than the Gamorreans to whom they're loyal unless ordered to do otherwise. Recently, agents of the Empire have begun acquiring these creatures for use as guard animals at Imperial facilities, such as at the training facility on Sirpar.


Quizzer (Rival)
Brawn 1 Cunning 3 Presence 2
Agility 4 Intellect 1 Willpower 1

Soak: 1
Wound Threshold: 5
Strain Threshold: 5
M/R Defense: 0 / 0

Skills: Athletics 2, Perception 2, Skulduggery 2, Stealth 2, Survival 2

Talents: None

Abilities: Silhouette 0; Arboreal: gain a boost die to actions involving movement in the trees, but suffer a setback die to movement-related actions on the ground

Equipment: Claws (Brawl; Damage 3; Critical 5; Range [Engaged]); shiny objects pilfered from unsuspecting travelers

Quizzers are mischievous arboreal creatures native to the planet Gamorr. They are bipedal and roughly humanoid, with clawed feet, prehensile tails, opposable thumbs, and four bony plates that protrude from their backs. While most harmless, they do love shiny objects, and steal them when the opportunity arises. This has made them a hated enemy of the Gamorreans. For more information about them, check out the relevant article on Wookieepedia.

New Equipment
The Gamorreans possess a number of distinctive equipment items; these are detailed below.

M'ukh'gfa
This battle armor is assembled piecemeal from pieces of scrap collected on the battlefield, and connected by leather straps—at least in an ideal world. Nowadays, many Gamorreans just by the prefabricated version. More old-fashioned warriors consider it dishonorable for non-Gamorreans to wear the armor, and challenge those who do so to duels.

*The rarity listed is for purchasing these items on Gamorr; increase it by 2 when not on that planet.

Arg'garok
The Gamorrean axe is a heavy metal blade attached to a stout wooden handle. It is specifically designed to take advantage of Gamorrean's low center of gravity, meaning that characters who aren't built like them suffer a setback die to Melee checks when wielding arg'garoks.

Thogk
The Gamorrean club is made from a stout piece of wood, preferably gorgt wood, with a metal spike driven through it. Ideally, Gamorrean warriors drive that spike through the wood with their own fists.

Transliterator
More sophisticated than a vox-box, a transliterator is a device that translates phrases from one language (often a being's native tongue) into another (usually Basic). What is more, it is usually designed to “speak” in a voice based off of a known celbrity, such as pop holostar Javul Charn or former Imperial Senator Princess Leia of Alderaan.

Vox-Box
This small electronic device can store up to a dozen pre-recorded phrases, usually in Basic, with a button for each. Of course, the user can choose to record other phrases instead. Sometimes when that happens, shenanigans ensue.
