History & Background

Kovuu’s population has long enjoyed the use of ornithopters as a form of sport and recreation. Many Kovuuns now use their wings for local travel. The reduced burden on the planet’s few remaining grav vehicles greatly extends their working life. Although a difficult feat, many Kovuuns have begun to learn how to hunt live game from the air. This practice has created a greater degree of local independence from imported foodstuffs.
