For comparison, here are two of my Strange Stars setting sophont species in both Black Star and Star Scoundrels terms. Both are pretty simple! For Black Star, species just provides innate traits as listed. In Star Scoundrels the species is a Trademark which is sort of described by the words in parentheses after it. Those words might also suggest Edges that could be selected.
Follow the links with the names to get more background on the species.
In Black Star:
Traits: Claws, Tough.
In Star Scoundrels:
Hwuru (Strong, Climb, Forest Survival, Claws, Intimidate)
In Black Star:
Traits: Extra Limbs, Acute Hearing.
In Star Scoundrels:
Bomoth (Enhanced Hearing, Extra Manipulators, Music, Slang, Philosophical, Unflappable)
There's a miniature from the old and mostly forgotten Dreamblade CMG that's very similar to the Bomoth, if Bomoth were more green than blue.
ReplyDeleteInteresting, so as you said in earlier post, Star Scoundrels has just a tad more "stuff" to develop out your character concept. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI will likely pick up the POD version of Star Scoundrels when it is available, already have Black Star.
