Favourite alien species

[SLAM]

What is your favourite alien species in the Star Wars galaxy

Mine is the Ubese 8)

Good back ground story with a cool looking set of armour too

I was thinking about doing some stats for different types of Ubese armour because I dont think that the entire population wears just the Raider armour.

[Esoomian]

I do like the Ubese but I have yet to hit on a favorite species. In case people can't tell I am quite enjoying playing as an Esoomian

Does the Rancor pit have the stats for an Ubese?

[SLAM]

Attribute Dice: 12D

DEXTERITY 2D/4D+2
KNOWLEDGE 1D/3D
MECHANICAL 1D/2D+2
PERCEPTION 2D/4D+2
STRENGTH 1D/3D
TECHNICAL 2D / 4D

Special Abilities:

Survival : 'True Ubese' get a +2D bonus to their Survival skill.
Technical Aptitude : At the time of character creation only, 'True Ubese' characters receive 2D for every 1D they place in technical skills.
Type II Atmosphere Breathing : 'True Ubese' require adjusted breath masks to filter and breathe Type I Atmospheres. Without the masks, Ubese suffer a -1D penalty to all skills and attributes.

I wonder why their mechanical is so low.

I guess they're not generally a race of pilots then

[Orgaloth]

I don't know why, but when I play, it's either a Dresselian or an Astromech. I've loved playing astromechs ever since I did the R2 scream at a Con and had EVERYONE stop their games and come ad see what was going on.

Wroonians, all the way. 4D+2 BASE Mech is just pure bliss for the Pilot Characters that I love... And I get to beat the c*** out of anyone that tries to call me a Smurf.

Also, when I get into GMing Star Wars again, I'm planning on having a Wroonian Villian whose greatest joy in life is to watch the pretty fireball explosions when ships blow up. He has a large hard drive on his fighter (Might have him in a Helix http://www.rancorpit.com/helix.shtml , or a "Fat Tie Fighter" http://www.rancorpit.com/scoutShip.shtml ) that just has explosions on 'em, and decorates the walls of his quarters and cargo bay with paintings that he has done based on them.

Crell Damar played a Wroonian pilot once.
In my games, I've made near human species speak as if from another country on earth. Wroonian were Australian. Crell did the funniest Australian accent, those games were fun.

My favorite alien species, hmm, so far I think it's Mashi Horansi. Though, Tynans are running a close second.

[Crell Damar]

Playing a Wroonian was fun... he was untouchable in his X-wing
but on the subject of fav alien species, i can't pick just one... so many species make for so many role-playing possibilities, although i've had the most experience playing a human, or near-human (usually of some custom design with no special abilities, just differences in appearence) so trying to pick 1 single species is impossible

My favorite alien species would have to be Quarren. I think the squid head is kinda neat. Nothing spectacular, or overly powerful. But their shady reputation as a sell out to the Mon Calamari's is a neat little reputation to get over. Also, I kind of like the fact they can breathe underwater, and open up different ideas with water adventures.

You can claim a distant relation to Cthulhu when you're playing a Quarren.

My favorite species is the Meri. Their Dexterity of 6D is just awesome. They have some good special abilities as well.

I like Meris too but I perfer to be something a bit more reasonable. Msot of my creatures are cats, like Mashi horansi and trianii.

What stats do you use for the Zabrak? Did you just convert the new D20 stats to D6?
