  • Home Gravity: 1.17
  • Home Atmosphere: Standard, Oxy/Nit
  • Home Terrain: Shallow Ocean/Swamp
  • Home Climate: Warm; +10°
  • TL: 10(late); Concentration: Stealth


DISPOSITION

  • Chaotic Neutral

CULTURAL ANOMALIES

  • Ref:Mangalores-5thE, Necromongers-CoRiddick; "You keep what you kill," etc.
  • Never seen outside encounter suits

HISTORY

  • Uplifted by the Emminh-Rhi, gengineered and cybernetically modified
  • Homeworld has a very active water-cycle; Ref:Kamino

LANGUAGE

 Unspoken(Radio; originally sonar-based); Emminric, with voice-simulator

APPEARANCE

  • Physical: (Based on encounter suit, not natural form) Roughly man-sized (a little squat), humanoid/bipedal; height -2"@ST; weight +100lbs@ST
  • Dress: Never seen outside encounter suit, suit design varies slightly by individual, usually chameleon-surfaced, often decorated with braids, capes, markings, etc.
  • Architecture: Natural, mostly carved and decorated caves built by Emminh-Rhi. More commonly, (star)ship/station-style dwellings.
  • Vehicles: Always amphibious, fish-like hydrodynamics, generally chameleon-surfaced, water-atmo except the engineering department, which is usually "air"-filled for the Emminh-Rhi engineers

REPRODUCTION

  • Cannot reproduce naturally, only artificially, due to the encounter-suit.

EXCEPTIONS

  • Most universally annoying

3E STATISTICS

Based on a "suited" individual, and not their natural form; cost does not include any integral weaponry, which are always present in some form or another

NOTES

  • Since Tohre-Chi have no spoken language, all names and words associated with the Tohre-Chi are from the Emminric language
  • Cybernetically bonded to encounter suit, cannot be removed (technically cyborgs); no outside scientists have been able to discover what they really look like, and efforts at genetic reconstruction have been slow (and underfunded).
  • Suits are as individual as fingerprints
  • Technically Phosphorous-based, although the advantages are nullified due to bionic reconstruction.
  • "Bleed" seawater
  • Tend to have many built-in "gadgets" that allow them to perform normally in spit of the restrictions of the encounter suit (e.g. mini tools built into hands to make up for lack of manual dexterity)
  • Physical Disads generally refer to the encounter suit, rather than the organism
