Horansi

I understand your point but I disagree

Demolitions has many mundane uses within society especially a society that lives primarily within and asteroid field. I would see nothing unusual about a Verpine with a high demolitions skill

True. I would imagine many Verpine demolition experts are called upon to blast new interiors for the many Verpine homes.

I think playing an alien for the pure fun of roleplaying situations as an alien, is the reason we do it at all. I, for one, couldn't play Miraj without pretending not to understand simple machines and technology. Or play a wookie without the Chewie roar or a barabel who isn't mean.
I roleplay, because I like to roleplay. I play star wars because I can roleplay as another species if I wanted to. "to boldly go where no one has gone before."

I fully agree.

As an Esoomian I choose to roleplay the difficulty speaking basic this means 2 out of 3 of our players have some form of speach impediment. It makes for some great fun when the only human is trying to talk to us

So are the Horansi in any novels or comics, or were they just created for the RPG suppliment?

I really don't think giving the Horansi Bite and claw damage would make them too uber, there are a ton of races that have stuff like that... they'd just be another species with razor claws and sharp teeth Rolling Eyes

Lots of species look to have claws and the like generally we use the rules that if it looks like you've got claws but there are no rules for it you can use your claws to cut things (slash ropes and the like) but don't do any extra damage

The Only Really convenient thing about having claws and sharp teeth is that your character is ALWAYS armed. That is the one thing that I like about Ragnars cyber hand, I always have a weapon "just in case."

Very Happy

When your strength is 7d you're always armed even without claws or cybernetics. Laughing

Is the claw just a lump of shaped metal or is it actually a device?

If it's a devices what happens if you are hit with an ion blast or in a ship hit by an ion blast, does it shut down so to speak?

I think it's a bit wierd how brawling damage is dealt. When I punch, I can almost never do too well, but kicks are a completely differet story. Are there rules for damage with different parts of the body (like headbutts)?

My group had rules for Headbutts once upon a time... Haven't had need for 'em so long, I can't remember what they are any longer...

But they were effective, particularily with Crunch, my Klatoonian Roustabout, who had his own wrestling move (He has 8D in Brawling: Pro Wrestling), The Flying Headbutt.

His Signature Move. Wink
