Physiology & Environment (Ecology)
Ebokin Physiology
Ebokin are bilaterally symmetrical and are built low to the ground, with eight legs (octopodal) and four small manipulative arms set close to the head.
They average 0.8 meters tall and 1.5 meters long and 130 kg in weight, with the male of the species coming in slightly smaller (sexual dimorphism).
Ebokin Environment
An ice-capped Imperial world located within the Towers Cluster in the Aramis Subsector of the Spinward Marches. Yebab is a large, chilly world with an exotic atmosphere composed of methane, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and various trace elements.
Yebab's highly alien ecology makes the world of particular interest for scientific research. The University of Regina's biology department maintains a research facility at Yebab's starport to study the world's many exotic lifeforms. In addition to Yebab Startown, other major settlements on Yebab include Shalam Kular, Aga Ra, Kekushima, Gidii, and Kirpa.
