Tatopoulos
Attribute Dice: 10D
DEXTERITY: 2d/4d
KNOWLEDGE: 2d/4d
MECHANICAL: 2d/4d
PERCEPTION: 2d/4d
STRENGTH: 2d/4d
TECHNICAL: 3d/5d
Special Abilities:
Telepathy: The tatopoulos communicate using telepathy. While this ability is generally limited to their own species (and they rarely communicate with others), they can use an unconscious member of another species to "speak" for them.
Story Factors:
Invaders: The tatopoulos invade other worlds, strip it of resources, and move on to the next. As such, they are almost universally reviled by other species.
Move: 10/12
Size: 1.4 to 1.7 meters
Physically, they are no more durable than a Human, but they do possess far superior technology, including enormous fleets of ships; defense fields to prevent attacks from reaching their ships' hulls; highly destructive weaponry and protective biomechanical suits.
The tatopoulos have a slender, quasi-humanoid body with three-jointed limbs and only two digits on their hands and feet. Their head is enlarged. They have large, pupil-less eyes (or eye-like organs) and a number of long, grasping tentacles protruding from their suits' backs. Lacking both ears and vocal chords, they communicate using a sophisticated form of telepathy. They are also able to control other beings, at least partially, by attaching tentacles to their necks. They apparently do this in order to communicate with non-telepathic species.
They travel around the galaxy in a single, massive Mothership that is around 550km in diameter. This ship can deploy numerous smaller, city-sized spacecraft. When invading an inhabited planet, the aliens' military tactics consist of large-scale attacks, destroying the major cities around the globe simultaneously and then heading to the next largest, presumably going on until there is nothing left. This species breathes oxygen and requires similar environmental conditions to humans.
Tatoloulos are rarely seen outside their biomechanical combat suits. These suits increase their strength by +1d, have 4 tentacles they can make attacks independently (2d to attack, 3d damage) and can control a creature they are attached to. The suit gives the tatopoulos 3d physical and 1d energy armor.
