Hammer, submachinegun, spare magazines (2), frag grenades
(2), other treasure)
Slavern pack members are very excitable cowards that
half-pant, half-yell when they speak. Their high pitched voices,
often engaged in squabbling arguments, can be heard for some
distance. They fight only in large numbers, attacking from
ambush or using other tricks to improve their odds of success.
The brutes that lead them are strong, confident and speak with
a menacing growl. Slavern leaders intimidate any who question
their authority, but still utilize ambushes, numerical advantage
and tactics to achieve their ends. A leader who does not court
traditional pack wisdom finds champions and curs alike leav-
ing camp in the middle of the night, or openly deserting during
the day for the most innovative “thinkers.”
Slavern typically follow Soldiers, sometimes Envoys and in
rare cases certain scavenger gangs will follow Operatives and
Mechanics. The other classes are regarded dubiously by their
fellows and would likely seek employment offworld rather
than try to advance in what passes for Slavern society.
Slavern – Medium Humanoid Life Science check DCs
DC 10 – Slavern are humanoid scavengers with canine features.
DC 15 – Slavern can see in the dark, and are strong warriors, but
they are inherently lazy by nature. In their brutal feudal society
the strong make the weak do their work for them. To this end,
Slavern often acquire slaves.
DC 20 – Slavern often ambush their enemies and attack in
massive numbers to compensate for their lack of high tech
weapons or morale. They will flee if it appears they will lose.
DC 25 – Some Slavern clans have offworld tutors for their
young, and use cooperation to their mutual advantage instead
of ruling through fear and intimidation.

Slavern Ecology
The The Slavern are hulking, brutish humanoids with a
decidedly canine aspect to their appearance. Descended
from carrion eating scavengers their first instinct is often to
steal from other creatures. This was the way of the war-
ring Slavern clans over a century ago when they were first
contacted by alien explorers. At first the savage Slavern
were in awe of the technological power and the wonders
possessed by the alien Tura: their new friends brought
them medicines and learning, offering them agriculture and
the sciences. Over time, familiarity with the peaceful aliens
bred contempt and the clans overwhelmed their alien
benefactors.
Slowly the clans sent many of their warriors to the
Tura homeworld to learn from them the workings of the
spacecraft that carried them among the stars. When there
were enough Slavern warriors among the Tura, the clans
attacked, seizing the most important, critical workings of
the woefully unprepared Tura government and military. The
victory was as swift as it was complete: the Slavern were
now masters of two worlds. Hungrily, they cast their eyes
on other worlds, other systems that would be theirs to con-
quer. They sent probes like those the Tura had once used to
discover their own distant homeworld, anxiously awaiting
the day when the probes would send back images and
data on the bounty held by distant stars. While it would
only take a few years, the Slavern were overly anxious, and
turned their new might toward industry. Fleets with more
destructive power than the Tura had ever seen were built:
warships for the inevitable conquest. While they waited,
an uneasy peace settled over the clans, with no common
enemy to battle, centuries of old wounds began to reopen.
It was in this uneasy peace that some clan leaders looted
the Tura’s homeworld, securing science and technology
for their strongholds back home. Some took scientists and
technicians, others simply took laborers, perpetuating the

 cruel slavery they had always known. It was in this time
the strongest clan leaders with the oldest grudges, intoxi-
cated with their newfound power, used the Tura’s recently
developed nuclear weapons to wipe out their old enemies.
The fleets were ordered to bombard enemy strongholds at
home as well, turning vast swaths of their homeworld to
ash. Now, the Slavern were masters of two burning waste-
lands.
At a time that should have been the height of their civ-
ilization, the cruel slavelords destroyed their own people.
Only then did the probes return messages: far away – but
not unreachable – a spacefaring race with sparse colo-
nies was spreading across the sector. This would be the
first time the Slavern ever laid eyes upon the Eldred. The
Slavern leaders that remained came to an agreement: they
would conquer these people, take their civilization, and
this time they would not squander it. This time they would
seize greatness and hold it for all time.
many as two magazines before changing to selective fire, or
wading into melee with their assault hammers.
Emergent Behaviors
Scavenger gangs live in the wastelands outside the clan
structure, and are freer than any Slavern that have ever
lived. Some scavengers have managed to steal a starships
and become pirates or mercenaries.
Other Notes
Some of the ships used to bombard the Tura and Slavern
homeworlds have few precious Nuclear Missiles (Heavy
Nuclear Missiles) left. The Tura had a stockpile of Atomic
weapons that have yet to be distributed or used by any fac-
tion. (Treat as Tactical Nuclear Missiles or Heavy Torpedoes,
but not Heavy Nuclear missiles)

Habitat & Society

The Slavern originated on an arid world with unusually
active volcanoes, which has rendered the native soil full of
heavy metal toxins, and the air a polluted, smoggy haze.
As their society industrialized, these contaminants only
spread further, hindering any natural brain development
they might have had. The Tura tried to explain this to the
Slavern, but few among the Slavern listened. Now, they
count radioactive fallout among the list of dangers in their
environment.
The Slavern are a meritocracy of thugs, where only the
strongest and most cruel take and hold power over others.
As far as a race of ignorant savages goes, the lesser ranks
know what is expected of them: they do as they are told
and enjoy the fruits of other’s labors. For the very ambi-
tious and very strong, there are the fighting pits. In the pits
a fighter from the wasteland could become famous and
enter the service of a powerful clan, though many only end
up dead.
Campaign Role
Slavern are thugs, slavers, and sometimes mercenaries.
Slavern are never found as bodyguards, as they are not
known for their loyalty. Any client could almost guarantee
their Slavern protectors would take a bribe from their ene-
my to kidnap or kill them.

Predation
In groups of four or more one member of the party will
have no hand grenades, but a grenade launcher and the
same number/type of grenades for the launcher that they
would have been carrying otherwise. When attacking a
well-armed party, they will use the grenade launcher first
to soften up their targets before closing in with their sub-
machineguns and hand grenades.
In smaller groups the individuals will use their grenades
first and automatic weapons fire second. They may use as
