Description:
The Srrors'tok of Jankok are a felinoid, bipedal species. Their massive build and pronounced fangs mark them as predators. Their
bodies are covered in a golden pelt of short fur. Most Srrors'tok eschew clothing in warm climates, preferring to wear only
pouches sufficient to hold tools and weapons. Srrors'tok are very susceptible to cold, however, and, unlike the Wookiees, must
bundle up in frigid climates.
The Srrors'tok language Hras'kkk'rarr,is a combination of sign language and a complex series of growls, snarls, and clicks. They
find speaking Basic difficult because of the way their mouths are made. They can manage simple words, and when addressing someone
accustomed to the way they speak, even some complex ones.
Jankok is a technologically primitive planet; most Srrors'tok communities are tribal hunting parties held together by familial
bonds and common culture. There are no starports on Jankok; other than scouts and the rare trader, few have come to Jankok. Few
Srrors'tok have left their world.
The Srrors'tok have an honor-based societal structure. As in Wookiee culture, there is a life-debt tradition in which the saved
party must become indentured to his deliverer until the master dies. One may discharge a life-debt by incurring the life-debt
from the enemy of one's current master. It is considered dishonorable to deliberately incur a second life-debt, which helps
prevent Srrors'tok society from dissolving into a chaos of intertwining life-debts. According to Srrors'tok law, those who do not
or are unable to honor a life-debt must take their own lives.
Special Abilities:
Voice Box: Srrors'tok are unable to pronounce Basic, although they can understand it perfectly well.
Fangs: The sharp teeth of the Srrors'tok inflict STR+1D damage.
Story Factors:
Honor: Srrors'tok are honor-bound. They do not betray their species - individually or as a
whole. They do not betray their friends or desert them. They may break the "law," but never their code. The Srrors'tok code of
honor is very stringent. There is a life-debt tradition where a saved party must become indentured to his deliverer until the
master dies. According to Srrors'tok law, those who are unable to honor a life-debt must take their own lives.
Sign Language: Srrors'tok have very complex sign language and body language.
