| Kamarians |  |
| Kamar is a harsh world beyond the borders of the Corporate Sector. The galaxy has proven that life has an amazing tenacity and the Kamarians are yet another example of a species that thrives in extreme conditions.
Kamarians are territorial people, known for conflict. They often live in small groups called "tk'skqua." The most numerous Kamarian tk'kquas live in the mountain cave structures. They have a feudal society with primitve technology: they are on the verge of developing "clean fusion" and have nuclear-capable weapons.
Of special note are the "Badlanders": a distinct culture that survives in the brutal deserts of Kamar. The Badlanders are typically a few centimeters shorter than their mountain-dwelling cousins. Their coloring is also different, featuring light-browns and tans to blend in with the desert terrain of the Badlands. They seem to have a decreased metabolism, with a considerably lower food-to-water ratio, yet Badlanders live longer than their brethren (averaging 127 local years, compared to 123 for the mountain-dwellers). Unlike their more advanced cousins in their mountain castles and towers, the Badlanders have a low technology level, relying on spears and simple mechanical devices. The Badlanders are nomadic, traveling in small groups and surviving on the few plants and animals of the region. They are considerably more superstitious than other Kamarians and have a fanatic reverence for water. | |
