Smircher



Race: Tal

Homeworld: Coraab

Era: approximatelly 800 Tu

According to the available period sources, Smircher suffered from a rare growth disease - in his twelve Tu, he was over three meters tall and due to the connected problems with walking and spine malformation he was not suitable for work in the mining colonies. He decided to leave for the coraabian wilderness, where he wanted to spend the rest of his life. He had to work hard on himself, daily training his stressed mussles to be even able to procure food and live with some dignity. He allegedly never washed himself. His stay in the proximity of settlements of the free unliving gave birth to a legend of a Sharp giant - most likely due to the characteristic ears flaps, which the dirty Smircher liked to stretch with weights.

Smircher usually hunted the green bibaps, whose precious tissues he exchanged with miners from the colonies for food and other necessry equipment. In his era, he was one of few beings on Coraab who could track down their nests. That is what the Great Bibapion claims at least - a contemporary, but largely fictional para-encyklopedia.

Some versions of the legends circulate among the unliving tribes that Smircher did not die, but was murdered by his former miner brethren during a colony visit. They have allegedly decided to get rid of him, so that they did not have to pay astronomical sums of money that they owed to Smircher for his bibap tissue deliveries."
