War Beasts

"Respect the Great Beasts of War. Honor them. Fear them."

―Merc Leader Marex Holidan

The mercenaries have brought with them a variety of beasts of war to assist in the defense of New Tython as well as to help in the offense.

Zakkegs

"Jedi cannot stop them. Often times, neither can we"

―BEASTMASTER

Zakkegs are excellent pack animals, or animals that will carry supplies/weaponry or a few troops in/out. Zakkegs are immune to most Force powers. They are tough and covered in spikes and horns and make an excellent transport animal. Originally coming from Dxun, the Zakkegs prove a difficult beast to kill as by design they have natural armor. Zakkegs are like a living transport.

Zakilla is the favorite Zakkeg of the group, he's strong, sure footed and seen many a battle. Many Forces users have tried to cause harm, confusion or fear in Zakilla, no to avail. He's usually the first in and last out of the animals and doesn't get spooked or seem to be affected by the pressures of war.

Orbalisks

"They feel the power of the dark side within you"

―Darth Bane explains the orbalisks reaction to Zannah's touch.

Against the strong Force users that might be keeping to the shadows, or fighting from the darkness; the Orbalisks have been brought in. Orbalisks are barnacle-like creatures, native to the Beast Moon of Dxun. They feed off of Dark Side Energy pumping chemicals into the blood that increase rage, anger, and fury. Once they are killed, the Orbalisks kill the 'host' by putting toxins into the victim, a simple shot to an Orbalisk would be enough for the venom to be released.

Orbaslisks are on an essential suicide mission, and while their service is appreciated; no one gets so close to these creatures as to name them. They will often be given a series of letters and numbers for identification purposes, but nothing more personal than that.

Maalrass

"Release the Maalrass!"

―Merc Leader Marex Holidan ordering the Maalrass to war

Maalrass are small feline-like predators that come from the forst moon of Dxun; They have large fangs that come out of their round heads. Hunting in packs, they may be a relative to the nighthunters. The Maalrass can be used for tracking as well as going out in a pack to eliminate a variety of enemies as the Mercenaries would 'release the Maalraas'.'

Furrotio is the favorite, almost the mascot of the Maalraas. Furrotio is the undisputed Alpha male of the pack. He's been the leader of the group for a few years and none of the other Maalrass have been suitable to even consider challenging him for the title. Furrotio's relationship with the commander/handler is so close, it's believed they communicate telepathically, but there's been no confirmation of this.

Furrotio is practially the stuff of legends, he stands 1.5 meters high while on all fours and nearly 2.5 meters on his hind legs, With brown and green scales, he has natural camoflauge. He is a strong ferocious beast when on duty. Rumor has it that in his down time that Furrotio likes chewing on nerf rib bones and sitting by the fire.
