Babi-Ijo<br />
Homeworld : Rivo-3<br />
Known Locally as 'Ruma Babi'. Population: 45 billion. Tech : Warp, Replicator (Low level)<br />
The Babi-Ijo are a war like, lazy, gluttonous race of pig faced humanoids. They enjoy eating so much<br />
they often resort to cannibalism and will eat any other species they can catch.<br />
The planet is mostly barren desert, with vast cities that gather around the small seas and salt water<br />
lakes around the planets equator. The planet is a large ball of rock, it has no iron core, but it is<br />
far enough away from the star of Rivo to not suffer too much from the solar winds.<br />
However, species not local to the planet should take precautions against radiation.<br />
As the planet has no plate movement, there are never any earthquakes or volcanos. This has meant<br />
that the Babi-Ijo build perilously tall skyscrapers.<br />
The Babi-Ijo are lazy and corrupt. Graft is endemic in all industries and professions.<br />
They use a currency based on food. The planet is made up of 12 different nations that are federated<br />
into one planetary wide empire. Each nation has its own currency but these are prone to hyper<br />
inflation and pretty much worthless. Food stamps though are used for most trading and are stable, as<br />
each stamp can be traded for a meal.<br />
The Babi-Ijo store food in buildings much like a bank. Each food bank is shielded with a strong<br />
forcefield that prevents transporting and heavily guarded with robots and mercenaries. This is to<br />
prevent local criminal gangs from stealing food and food stamps.<br />
Many food items are rare and are traded for huge amounts.<br />
Babi-Ijo recognise each other by smell and thus all members of a humanoid species look much the<br />
same to them so using scent as a disguise is a viable option. They do not see colours and cannot<br />
focus.<br />
This makes them terrible shots, so weapons fired by Babi-Ijo usually have (unreliable!) auto-aiming.
