The human-descended Zhodani have long embraced psi powers in their society, in contrast to the persecution that psis suffer within the Imperium. The Vargr are a race of aliens descended from transplanted Terran canines. Both are formidable rivals to Imperial power in the Spinward Marches sector.

Alien Races 1 for GURPS Traveller has everything you need to set a campaign in the Zhodani Consulate or Vargr Extents. It includes starship deck plans and vehicle designs; typical weaponry; rules and templates for creating player characters; up-to-date history and cultural information, and much more.

Also, seen here for the first time are three significant "minor races" from Zhodani and Vargr territory: the tyrannosaurian Drakarans, the arachnoid Clotho and the enigmatic Sheol. Almost unknown in Imperial territory, these races are growing powers in the Zhodani Consulate and the Vargr Extents . . .
