Creature:Mohm

Information
The Mohm are a race of stocky, porcine sapients who once served their own needs as agricultural farmers, yet now are warmongers in the employ of the Crux space pirates. Powerful, three-eyed creatures, they are now feared among freighters and smaller, unescorted ships, as they are not easily hidden from thanks to their incredible senses of both hearing and smell.

Statistics
Species Nicknames: Raiders, Pigs, Oinkers, Chauvinists Home Planet: Undyrlundh Species Type: Warm-blooded Terrestrial Vertebrate Speech Style: Unspecified Lifestyle: Social Farmers Turned Bloodthirsty Warriors Hunt/Forage Success Rate: 87.2% Forage (78% success rate), 12.8% Hunt (43% success rate) Armor: Being one part of the backbone of the Crux forces, they are constantly seeing battle. Often used to infiltrate docked vessels to take out opposition, they are equipped with heavy armors, which their bulky bodies easily support. Defenses: Naturally farmers, their bodies are short and stocky, to allow for easier carrying of heavy weights; this also gives them a low center of balance, making them difficult to trip. Also from their agricultural upbringings, they have thickened skin with relatively desensitized nerves, allowing them to take a significant amount of battery that would make many other races flinch. They also utilize massive ears, which are very good at hearing things from large distances, and a large, sensitive snout that is quite sensitive to smell. Their final defense is used naturally in the consumption of fungal food - their long, prehensile barbels, which are very sensitive to taste; these allow it to easily detect poisons without risking death, making them nearly impossible to kill in this fashion. Weapons: Mohm are very strong, and can snap a weaker race's neck relatively easy. They also possess several large tusk-like teeth that can be used to bite an opponent. In the modern era, they are equipped with plasma rifles and other weaponry by the Crux space pirates that they are now under the employ of. Tools: Two of a Mohm's limbs end in hands, which are thereby used to manipulate objects. Method of Eating: Unspecified Reproductive Rate: Unspecified Gestation: Unspecified Offspring Incubation: Unspecified Number of Offspring: 1-12 shoats per litter. Offspring Survival Rate (before age of maturity): Unspecified Singular/Plural/Possessive: Mohm/Mohms/Mohm

Interstellar Era
While they were starfarers at this point who sold their surplus product on the interstellar market, no race risked their own kind to save them when the Crux descended upon them. While they initially fought hard against the space pirates, it was a losing battle, and eventually they felt they had no choice but to join their enemy to keep from being wiped out. Initially serving as slaves for the first few years, they quickly were adapted into a major backbone of the Crux stellar forces. While still low on the rank ladder, their presence is appreciated by the devious conglomerate. In Crux terms, they are known as Raiders.

Wrath
The Wrath is the major spacecraft of the Mohm, and their only one commonly used for active duty by the Crux. It is a quick vessel, and while light armored, it possesses a pair of powerful plasma cannons to obliterate foes. Wraths are often found in dogfights, where they provide most of the ships found in the fleet. They can be compared as the Crux's answer to the Scourge's Inflictors, used by the Surpraxx.
