Description (Specifications)[edit]

Editor's Note

The source being referenced gives very different information for the Kebkh:

1) The MegaTraveller Referee's Gaming Kit, Folio 2, published in 1989, describes the Kebkh as resembling a Terran crocodile, covered in short brown fur, and walking on six stubby legs. They have a recumbent posture as opposed to the upright posture of many other sophonts. They are generally nocturnal, spending daylight hours in underground burrows and emerging to hunt at night.

An average Kebkh weighs around 100 kg, is covered in a tough leathery hide, and uses teeth and a thrasher as its principal weapons.
A Kebkh typically lives for more than 200 standard years, with a lifecycle corresponding to their world's decades-long seasons as it orbits around the gigantic primary star.
Kbekh are particularly sensitive to certain tones and frequencies, which can trigger a "flee" response.

2) Marc Miller's Agent of the Imperium, published in 1989, describes the Kebkh as a 5-ped sophont with a prehensile snout above and a similar prehensile excretor below.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

The sophonce of the Kebkh is largely unknown within Charted Space.

The source being referenced gives very different backgrounds for the current status of the Kebkh:

In the Referee's Gaming Kit, the Kebkh are very much alive, living on a world filled with abundant native life.
In Agent of the Imperium, the Kebkh homeworld was scoured of all life in the year 501: the Kebkh and almost everything else that lived on their planet have been extinct for over 6 centuries.

Astrography[edit]

This race is primarily located in the following areas:
Charted Space – Third Imperium:

Zarushagar Sector
- Khipge Subsector

Homeworld[edit]

The homeworld of this race is:

Deyis II (Zarushagar 0917)

Deyis II was settled by Geonee humans from Shiwonee in the Third Millennium: eventually one major continent was predominantly Human; the other predominantly indigenes.
