The Thermyscrians are all human women, the planet was founded when a group of female settlers left the republic to colonize the planet. For the most part they are xenophobic and tend to avoid off worlders although that has begun to change over the last 100 years as they have begun to adapt to outside technology. The Thermyscrians wear battle leathers when going into combat and are known far and wide as lethal warriors.

Senses
The Thermyscrians have normal human senses, although honed to a fine edge due to their combative nature.

Speech
The Thermyscrians have a planetary language all their own and it is an extremely private language as no one outside of native born Thermyscrians are taught the language. As they have recently begun to adapt to outside technology (the last 100 years...) the Thermyscrians have begun to speak Basic as well and use it strictly with outsiders from off planet.

Society and Customs
The Thermyscrians are a matriarchal Oligarchy with democratic overtones. They have a queen and an advising council that make choices for the betterment of the people. Unlike in the past the Thermyscrians have done away with the keeping of male slaves, instead they mingle with human off worlders and procreate once a year with the males being sent off to Coruscant or to their fathers and the females being raised amongst their sisters. There are strict rules against mingling with outsiders, much less being touched by males and with the Royal honor guard they have been known to kill men who lay hands on them.

Special Abilities
Thermyscrians receive an additional +1D for ever Skill Dice they put in Archery, Blasters, Dodge, Melee Combat or Melee Perry, Firearms, Search, Sneak, Brawling, Brawling parry, Lifting, Swimming or Stamina skills.

Story Factors:
Reputation:

Thermyscrians are generally reputed to be fierce warriors and great hunters, and they are often feared. Those who know of them always steer clear of them.

Enslaved:
The Thermyscrians have suffered great abuse at the hands of the Empire and other slave related races, as a result their population is somewhat diminished. As a result of this they will go to great lengths to fight against slavery even going to so far as to side with enemies temporarily to deal with the matter before resuming their fight.

Matriarchal society:
Thermyscrians are very pro-woman and have little respect for men or the way that they have ran the galaxy for the last couple of thousand years. (The whole rise of the empire, fall of the Jedi and galactic civil war...All because men were in charge!) Men are at -2D to all perception related persuasion skill type rolls and are treated little better than cattle. (This penalty includes Con, Persuasion and the like.)
