The Bzruellokh are a Minor Race originating from Fae Kodh (Gvurrdon 2536).

Physiology

This race originates from a world which is quite chilly, which explains their heavy build due to insulating fat. Bzruellokh are descendants of omnivore/gatherers which evolved on the great steppes of their planet. Males mass about 95 kg, females a bit less. Their legs are short with broad feet, which prevent them from sinking too deep into the snow. Their early forefathers had quite a lot of body hair, which disappeared when the Bzruellokh started using clothing to protect them further from the chill. Their arms are long, reaching down to the knees when they stand upright, and powerful. Their skin resembles that of a human but is rougher and thicker; the color ranges from white to yellowish. Their arms and head remain covered with thick white hair. The face features two small eyes which are set deep into the skull, while the ears resemble those of a Terran rabbit, only a bit broader.

Society & Culture

Compared to what is usual among other races, Bzruellokh have a peculiar rhythm. Their pre-sentient ancestors hibernated during the winter, gathering food in the summer. Thus they almost never sleep for half of their local year. In a modern society keeping to this cycle is quite difficult, but the hibernating is still engaged in where possible. However, the cycles are more controlled, so that their society still works, even in the winter. Their starships have special hibernation modules, for crew or owners that are due their hibernation cycle. The fact is that the Bzruellokh become ill if they can’t hibernate over a certain period. Drugs can prolong the wake time between hibernation, but are used sparingly.
