Usually underestimated, humans have proven themselves to not only be incredibly adaptive, but also capable of attaining power levels previously thought impossible for such a normally weak race.  Hailing from Planet Earth, humans have yet to venture into space whatsoever.  However, Capsule Corp, or the beginnings of it, have recently begun to expand their space division, branching out and developing revolutionary technologies at an alarming rate. Humans begin play in the Northern Galaxy, on the Planet Earth.

Humans receive a +5 racial bonus to Hide Ki and any Profession or Craft skill of their choice.

Stat Modifiers: Humans receive a +2 racial modifier to the stat of their choice at first level. The entire bonus must be applied to one stat, meaning you cannot add +1 to two different stats.

Known across the universe for their fierce combat abilities, Saiya-jins are martial by nature, considering violence the one true method to solving a problem or argument.  For the most part, this primal race sports black or brown hair of a spiky nature, and a fully prehensile tail most are overly fond of.  Recently, the planet Vegeta, home world of the Saiya-jins was destroyed.  Only those Saiya-jins who were off world at the time are left, pushing the race to the brink of extinction.   Saiya-jins can begin play anywhere, as the only survivors of the destruction of Vegeta were off planet.  Additionally all players wishing to create a Saiya-jin PC must receive permission from the GM.

Metabolic Synthesis: Known as the supreme warrior race, Saiya-jins may have earned their title completely from this unnatural racial ability, however, this is highly unlikely.  When knocked to within 10% of his/her total hit points, or brought back from the dead, a Saiya-jin's overall combat efficiency takes a sharp turn down upgrade lane.  This combat bonus takes the form of a slight experience point boost.  The principle is much akin to that of muscle growth. Basically, the very particles of the Saiya-jin's body are broken down and in the process of re-growth, a very slow process, reform in an improved fashion, just like a muscle torn apart by a workout will reform larger and stronger, so too does a Saiya-jin.

Oozaru: A form of lycanthropy, Saiya-jins are affected very drastically by the moon.  Once the transformation begins, there is nothing short of blowing up the moon or cutting off the Saiya-jin's tail that will stop it.  Once completed, the gigantic ape stands at an impressive 50 feet tall and will rampage, attacking everything it can with super strength and endurance.  Thankfully, knowledge of the actual condition has increased greatly over the years and it is now known that the moon gives off rays of a sort, lunar energy classified as "Brute Rays".  The intensity of the barrage of highly unstable particles varies with the phase of the moon, reaching astounding levels with a full moon.  Raw primal emotions are loosed during this period, and for the most part, instinct rules.  Thus it is that Saiya-jin's in the same tribe do not attack each other.  In fact, the chieftain of these closely knit communal groupings, being a symbol of authority and power, usually retains control over the group.  However, there have been incidents in which the strongest Saiya-jin has actually thrown off the overwhelming urge of instinct, and with ambitious reasoning fought the chief for his position as leader.  Saiya-jins receive the first level of the Oozaru transformation for free.

Stat Modifiers: Saiya-jins receive a +2 racial modifier to Strength and Constitution, and a -2 racial penalty to Charisma.

To be a half-saiyan is to be partly cursed. Most saiya-jins, seeing humans as a weaker race, look upon the half-breed as inferor and tainted form of their strong race. While the humans see saiya-jins as war mongering and mentaly stunted, not to mention the problem with the full moons. A half-saiyan's view on the world might vary on how they were raised. While most of both races send the half-breed off to fend for themselves, a few raise them. A half-saiyan raised with his saiya-jin parent will probley have been bullied by the stronger of there kin, while a half-saiyan with its human parent will more then likly become the bully, not to mention most human parents find it important for a snip of the tail.

Inherit: Half-breeds receive an extra feat at first level and a bonus feat every eight levels.  Half-breeds have full usage of Super Saiya-jin and Oozaru transformations as well.

Half-breeds receive a +5 racial bonus to Hide Ki.

Metabolic Synthesis: Taking many traits and skills from their differed raced parents, Half-Saiyans also have taken this very unnatural ability from their Saiya-jin parents.  When knocked to within 10% of his/her total hit points, or brought back from the dead, like their Saiya-jin parent, overall combat efficiency takes a sharp turn down upgrade lane.  This combat bonus takes the form of a slight experience point boost.  The principle is much akin to that of muscle growth. Just as with Saiya-jins, the very particles of the Half-Saiyan body are broken down and in the process of re-growth, a very slow process, reform in an improved fashion, just like a muscle torn apart by a workout will reform larger and stronger.

Stat Modifiers: Half-breeds receive a +2 racial modifier to Con at first level.

These green skinned humanoids are somewhat akin to plants in their natural abilities.  Of course, these plants happen to have short antenna, a keen understanding of the manipulation of Ki, and the ability to regenerate.  Normally a very peaceful race focused around meditation and self enlightenment, Nameks may only be pushed so far before defending themselves.  However, this has never really been tested, as the Nameks have nothing of value, they themselves preferring a spartan life style.  The few Nameks not on their home planet of Namek, reside on Earth as a direct result of Kami, having created a few of his kin to keep him company. Nameks begin play in the Northern Galaxy, on the Planet Earth.

Antennae: Used for telepathy between other Nameks, this mind communication can stretch across the galaxy.  In fact, besides it's highly useful communicative properties, the antennae also provide Namek fighters engaged in combat a circumstance bonus when working together against a non Namek opponent.  This is due to the instantaneous relay of information between allies.  Due to this, Nameks gain the Telepathy technique for free at first level as well as the benefits of the Dual Strike feat (Only usable with other Nameks).

Claws: Nameks have claws, this grants a +1 bonus to melee damage rolls while making unarmed attacks.

Fusion: A unique trait of Nameks is the ability for two individuals to become one.  First, one Namek places his hand on the other, then Ki is concentrated and the fusion begins to take place.  The Namek's have the ability to choose which of the two bodies they want to use.  The resulting warrior is very powerful, depending on the strength of the two warriors.  Namekian fusion is permanent, and thus should be used very cautiously.

Immunities and Resistances: Nameks are immune to poison and sleep effects, and get a +4 racial saving throw bonus to enchantment effects.  Nameks also have cold resistance 5.

Sound Sensitive: Nameks possess an uncanny sense of hearing and can pick up on things said a far distance away, however high pitched sounds such as a whistle or other such noises bother and annoy them.  This also provides a +5 racial bonus to Listen checks.

Normal Icers stand 4 to 5 feet tall.  However, this is merely the first stage of their being, and with experience, members of this highly evolved race may attempt to manipulate their dna structure and grown in size, stature and overall power.  Interestingly enough, during the later stages of this transformation, Icers regain many of their original characteristics, decreasing in size and becoming more stream lined yet again.  Modern scientists have yet to unravel this enigma, and will most likely never do so. Changelings begin play in the Western Galaxy, on the Planet Coola #89.

Advanced Digestive System: Early attempts to understand the Icer's anatomy resulted in them being classifying as silicon based life form that consumed certain types of minerals for fundamental elements.  This of course has been since been proven incorrect.  Icers are in fact flesh and blood, and do need sustenance in the form of food and water to survive.  However, due to their highly evolved status, Icers require only 1/2 as much as would a human.

Advanced Respiratory System: The Icers as a race have spent a significant amount of time in space, and have thus evolved to accommodate it's harsh environments.  As such they can survive in space, utilizing the tiny pockets of oxygen that actually exist in the dark void to sustain themselves indefinitely.

Cold Subtype: Icers take only half damage from Cold based attacks but take double damage from fire based attacks.

Indiscernible Anatomy: Due to their bizarre anatomy, Icers are immune to sneak attacks and take normal damage from critical hits.

Prehensile Tail: All Icers have prehensile tails.  This allows them to attack with their tail as though it were any normal limb.  Additionally, Icers receive a +2 bonus to all trip attempts made with their tail.  Icers with the Mutidexterity feat may also gain an additional attack with their tail.

Stat Modifiers: Changelings receive a +2 racial modifier Dexterity and Constitution, and a -2 racial penalty to Ki.

The Fie'nnar are a race of short four-armed albino humanoids, from the planet Rastur. The planet itself is a mountainous thing, covered with under-ground tunnels and rich mineral and energy reserves. Just over 5 feet tall, a typical Fie'nnar is somewhere around 300 lbs... despite the fact that they are whip-thin, Rastur is a high-gravity planet, and their muscle and bone density is around at least twice that of a Earth natives, making them quite physically powerful. Rastur is also orbiting in an almost constant shadow of another planet, giving them enough residual heat to live, but plunging their lives in perpetual darkness. They are unused to light-filled environments, and are quite sensitive to them. The Fie'nnar society revolves around clans, each of which has particular markings, which take the form of black body-enveloping tattoos, over their pale white skin.

Fast Healing: As long as they're not in bright light, a Fie'nnar heals 1 hit point a round.

Regeneration: A Fie'nnar is capable of regenerating limbs and flesh, but it involves a great amount of nutritional expenditure, particularly of calcium. After regenerating, most Fie'nnar have displayed great hunger, and need to restock on nutrients.

Extra Limbs: A Fie'nnar has four arms. Instead of using Ambidexterity, they use Multidexterity, which serves the same use, only allowing them to attack with each arm.

Infravision: Fie'nnar have 120 ft of infravision, enabling them to see in the dark very easily.

Light Sensitivity: The Fie'nnar are sensitive to bright lights which makes them mostly nocturnal on atmospheres like Earth's.
