When I Was A Young Warthog
ooc/ This is another previously approved submission that was lost in the crash, and apparently has caused some drama by its absence. I found it while digging through old, old files.

- Name: Zelosian/Oasis Mother Sithspawn
- Designation: Sentient
- Homeworld: First created on Felucia
- Language: Common
- Average height of adults: 1.6m (female), 1.75m (male)
- Skin color: Green to standard humanoid skin tone. Varies based on mood, conscious control, and sometimes nutrition or exposure.
- Hair color: Standard humanoid milieu.
- Breathes: Type I
- Strengths: Immune to virtually all diseases and poisons which affect mammals (Sith Poison is an exception). Can be reshaped and even healed with the Plant Surge power.
- Weaknesses: Vulnerable to many diseases which affect plants. Vulnerable to fire. Vulnerable to the Plant Surge power.
- Distinctions: Can produce pheromones (see below). Immune to mammalian pheromones. Requires sunlight or an artificial approximation for a portion of each day. Genetic mixture of roughly 55% Zelosian, 35% Oasis Mother, 10% Sylphe. Sylphe genetic material provides pheromonal control capable of influencing mammalian species. Extreme sexual dimorphism, as with Zelosians and Sylphes. Females have two entirely separate reproductive processes. One, analogous to a standard humanoid reproductive system in most respects, has a gestation time of six months. If the father is of this species, the offspring will be also. If the father is of another plant-based species, the offspring will be a sterile hybrid. The second reproductive process is drawn from Oasis Mother genetic stock. It requires no fertilization, and can produce headless, semi-sentient offspring within a matter of days, given adequate nutrition. These Oasis Mother offspring are telepathically linked to their mother via the Force, and easily controlled by her. Their alien minds are difficult for others to control. Their lifespan is a matter of weeks.
- Average Lifespan: Unknown; presumably around 70 Standard Years.
- Races: None. Only a handful of these hybrids were ever created.
- Diet: Sugar, water, sunlight, soil nutrients, vegetable matter.
- Communication: Verbal, pheromonal, limited telepathic (see above).
- Culture: As only a handful of these hybrids were ever created, no unified culture has ever had a chance to develop.
- Technology level: N/A
- General behavior: Sentient; ergo, widely varied. Requires a significant portion of each day to be spent in sunlight or an artificial approximation thereof. Responds favorably to sugar, and can even grow drunk on it.
- History: Created by the Dark Lord Velok in his Felucia laboratory, with the assistance of Rave Merrill. Meant to provide Circe Savan and others with a useful and unique body after their deaths. With the death of Velok at the hands of Aleidis Ijet, reincarnation is no longer part of the picture, and only a handful of individuals were ever created.
- Notable Player-Characters: Circe Savan (at some point)
- Intent: Created as an alchemical proof-of-concept experiment.
