Initially found by a group of slavers on an unknown planet, the Nergit were quickly put under the whip and shipped offworld by the thousands. Unfortunately, despite their obvious
capabilities, the Nergit turned out to be amazingly lazy. Their owners had to punish them constantly to keep them working, making them inefficient. Within fifty cycles most of the Nergit had
been released by their owners, who usually just abandoned them at the nearest convenient spot. The Nergit quickly hid wherever they could, and learned to survive in the filthiest conditions.
They soon infested garbage shoots, waste facilities and the bottom levels of storehouses. They became humanoid vermin, living off of waste created by other races.
Most Nergit make their homes in the nooks and crannies of the many urban centers where their former masters resided. In this situation they remain, spreading to new worlds by hiding in the
holds of cargo ships. Most races consider Nergits a blight and it is common for heavily armed elimination squads to clean out important subterranean regions of Nergit infestation.
Most Nergits live in small tribes of thirty to one hundred members, as dictated by available resources of the area. Nergits mostly avoid other races but gleefully attack targets they greatly
outnumber. They also attack any edible target if the Nergits are hungry enough or the target carries large amounts of obvious wealth. The Nergit value simple tools and shiny objects, but they
understand the value of firearms and seek them out whenever they can.

Usually found in the service of the Scarrans, the Tugan Scavers are a race of small insectoid creatures that the Scarrans are thought to have enslaved several centuries ago. The Tugan Scavers
have a predisposition towards all things mechanical and are mainly used by the Scarrans as workers and technicians. They are common sights on Scarran colonies and spacecraft, constantly crawling
about trying to make sure everything is working correctly. They are usually severely punished if the systems they are overseeing fail, so most have a nervous air about them as they constantly
check to make sure that everything is functioning correctly. Around Scarrans they are very skittish.
Over time, many of the Tugan Scavers have escaped their masters by sneaking off Scarran ships while they are docked or stealing escape pods. They are becoming more and more common on many
space stations, serving as technicians and skilled laborers. The Tugan Scavers have a strong sense of community and always travel in groups, usually numbering from four to twenty. Often these
groups seek employment together, either working on the same projects or running a business together. The rare Tugan Scaver that is found alone is usually emotionally unbalanced because of lack
of contact with his own kind.
Tugan Scavers unfortunately do not have much of a sense of private property, and tend to take apart devices without considering whom they belong too. This often gets them in a great deal of
trouble, but the Tugan Scavers seem incapable of understanding why others object to their habit of borrowing. While most of the Scavers will return items when asked, a small percentage of the
race is made up of kleptomaniacs who are quickly giving the race a bad reputation as thieves.
