Hoojibs

   "What ho, little brother!"
   <Um, hello.>
   "Holy Hutch! Solo was right. I can hear your voice in my head but not in
my ears! It's not often that happens! Telepathic bunnies! Who'd've thunk it?"
   <Pardon, sir, but I am most certainly not a bunny. I am Plif, spokesmind
for the Hoojibs.>
   "Nicetameetcha, sport. I'm Jaxxon, lepus carnivorous, meanest son of a bun
ever to ply the spaceways."
   <The pleasure is mine. Welcome to my homeworld of Arbra.>
   "Nice little planet you've got here. These mile high trees are pretty darn
impressive."
   <Try looking at them from my perspective.>
   "Har! Har! That's hard to imagine all right!"
   <What brings you to Arbra?>
   "Me and my pal, Amaiza are smugglers. We dropped off some medical supplies
here at the Rebel base and are enjoying a bit of shore leave. In fact, the
ship is recharging off some crystals in a cave somewhere."
   <Ah, yes, the crystals. Within the cavern where our Hoojib den is, there
is a massive (even for you) crystal formation which draws geothermal energy
from the planet's core and converts the energy into electricity and harmless
lightning. It is a place of great beauty. It makes me hungry just thinking
about it.>
   "Hungry?"
   <Of course. Rather than metabolize energy from food, we Hoojibs are able
to absorb it directly. By simply gnawing on the crystals, we are able to
consume all the nourishment we need. In fact there is such an abundance of
energy that we have invited your Rebel friends to construct a base nearby and
share the power.>
   "That was mighty friendly of you."
   <Thank you. I must confess I'm also sympathetic to their cause. This
Empire they're fighting sounds quite unpleasant.>
   "Plif, you don't know the half of it! Say, if you don't mind me askin',
what's that tendril thing growin' out of your head?"
   <Captain Solo calls it an alfalfa.>
   "Har! What's it do?"
   <I do not know. One of the Rebels' scientists supposes that it helps us
direct our telepathic communication. Who am I to argue? It is what it is.
I've had the hardest time understanding why you aliens must understand and
explain away everything you encounter. We Hoojibs have no science or
technology, yet you creatures seem to think that intelligence requires
technology. It would seem to me that the opposite case is the more accurate.>
   "Well, speakin' only for myself, I've always wondered what was out there
in the galaxy. You know, adventure, excitement, all that stuff. I wanna see
and do all I can before it's my time to push off."
   <Perhaps there is merit in what you say. Commander Skywalker has invited
me to accompany him on his journeys, and I do hope to join him.>
   "Well, then Plif, ole bean, keep your eyes peeled and your ears a
twitchin' 'cause you'll be in for the time of your life!"

Attribute Dice: 12D
Dexterity 2D/5D
Knowledge 2D/4D
Mechanical 1D/3D
Perception 3D/6D
Strength 1D/2D
Technical +1/1D

Special Abilities:
Force Sensitive: All Hoojibs are Force Sensitive and begin with 1D in Sense
and Control (both dice come out of their base attribute dice). In addition,
Hoojibs have telepathic skills which they use to communicate among themselves
and with others. All Hoojibs have these Force Powers: Receptive Telepathy and
Projective Telepathy. Whether they are able to teach non-Hoojibs these
abilities or learn others themselves is up to the GM's discretion.

Story Factors:
Energy Eaters: Hoojibs take energy directly rather than metabolize it from
food. They are able to absorb energy from from storage devices including
batteries and power packs.

Non-technological: Hoojibs are simple, arboreal creatures who have never
needed to develop any kind of technology since their needs have traditionally
been provided by Arbra's crystal cave. With their discovery by a Rebel
Alliance survey team, some Hoojibs have ventured out to explore the galaxy.
