GENERAL INFO
Name: Nimscall Terraformer
Designation: Semi-sentient
Origins: Draemidus Prime
Average Lifespan: 2GSY
Estimated Population: Rare
PHYSICAL INFO
Breathes:
- Type I
- Type II
- Type III
Average Height of Adults: 10m
Average Length of Adults: 3m
Skin color: White/Red
Hair color: None
Distinctions:
- Cephalopod-like physiology
- Respiration-based energy production
- Non-reproductive
- Tailored DNA
Races: None
Force Sensitivity: NFU
Strengths:
- Universal Respiration - The Nimscall is purpose grown for the conversion of most atmospheres. Only extreme toxicity or the lack of an atmosphere at all will stop its breathing
- Hard Shell - The Nimscall descends encased in a drop pod designed to withstand the immense stresses of reentry that protects the majority of its fleshy body in extremely resistant material
- Open Top - It's "Mouth" is exposed to allow respiration to proceed unimpeded. A direct attack, whether sustained fire or explosive will critically harm or kill it
- Toxic Air - While the Nimscall is designed specifically to convert as many different atmospheres as possible into the more homely, violent and charged air the Drael species enjoy, if the Nimscall is given an especially toxic aerosol, it may fail to respire, absorb the toxins and like any other lifeform, die as a result
Diet: Derives energy from respiration
Communication: Do not conventionally communicate. Responsible for the co-ordination of the Bryn'adul's various war-creatures via telepathic means, members of the Shaman Caste can monitor, interpret and influence the Nimscall's relatively simple brainwaves the same way they do most other beasts via force-based telepathy unique to their race.
Technology level: N/A
Religion/Beliefs: N/A
General behavior: A utility species that do not behave outside of their function as a local terraformer. Nimscalls breathe. Until they die.
HISTORICAL INFO
A creation spearheaded by Warrior and Bio-engineer Shaman Hrajlmak'Natok. The Nimscall Terraformer was, among others, a response to the rapidly growing Bryn'dul war-machine to aid invasion forces in the conquering of environmentally unfriendly worlds. The Nimscall is dropped from orbit encased within a Nimscall Drop Pod. After reaching a certain, calculated velocity, opens like a 4-paneled clamshell to airbrake and mitigate reentry burns and reduce the force of the final impact. Once on the surface, the Nimscall secures itself by digging its tentacles into the ground and the airbrakes are retracted for cover. Protected and secure, the Nimscall begins to respire. Inhaling the atmosphere and, after undergoing complex biological reactions, spews a gas very similar to the atmosphere on the Bryn'adul's home world of Draemidus Prime. The average Nimscall can produce millions of tons of Draemidus Gas a year.
Draemidus atmosphere is a red, extremely dense and thick air that is heavily composed of what many species would consider pollutants. Its charged nature disrupts any in-going/outgoing radio-based communications.
Nimscalls are dropped from space and carpet a predetermined area chosen for its remoteness and isolation from opposition forces. Within hours an area many miles across can be smothered in the air the Drael call home. This allows the Bryn'adul invasion force the perfect environment to set up a forward operation and quickly entrench themselves, regardless of the natural state of the planet. Due to the noxious makeup of the aerosol Nimscall's produce, the newly altered local climate will forcefully exclude any natives not employing special respiration apparatus, giving the Bryn'adul an almost entirely isolated staging area.
