Native Sophont (NIL): Grkaadudgaagii

The world is governed by the Grkaan Loc Institute for Xenological Studies, a highly politicized Solomani Party-controlled institution devoted to studying and exploiting the world’s two most important features: native methane-based organic products and the ruins of its alien TL 8 civilization.

• In -4100 the Vilani made contact with a minor alien race native to Grkaan Loc, the Grkaadudgaagii, a xenophobic methane-based species. Their balkanised early atomic era civilization adjusted poorly to the shock of first contact and destroyed itself in a nuclear spasm. The scandal induced Sharurshid to halt further exploitation of the sector.
