Description

(I felt that the original model was outdated and in need of some touch-ups now that I know what the heck I'm doing in the editor.)

Kamorrans trace their roots to ancient nocturnal desert predators. Intelligence normally evolves in creatures that have no other natural weapons of survival (IE: humans), but in a hostile desert environment where EVERY predator is highly weaponized, Kamorrans had to either win the lottery or perish. Their claws are still sharp and their legs are still able to propel them up to 25 mph.

Modern Kamorrans are a highly xenophobic race, and for good reason. Their first alien encounter was with humans, and shortly afterwards it was discovered that Kamorran bone marrow contains a rare variety of stem cell that can be used to delay human aging. A predictable series of murders followed by bad diplomacy resulted in the short but devastating Corinthian War, and the Kamorrans decided that they'd rather stay as distant as possible from other species that might try to harvest them for medicine. Nowadays the only Kamorrans ever seen in the flesh by outsiders are traders and soldiers, and they're always armed.

Their body armor incorporates an electromagnetic mapping technique that allows a properly-trained user to "see" using any surface of the body. Subdermal neural interfaces link the armor directly to the brain, and the instantaneous information relay gives the wearer astounding reflexes. On top of this, most Kamorrans have, for one reason or another, some manner of cybernetic enhancement; the individual pictured here apparently has a knee enhancement, either from an injury or just to improve performance.
