Cultures:  Gutree are a primitive tribal race.  Each Tribe is ruled by a Shaman, who will often show minor force abilities.  To a Gutree their 'life' means everything.  By 'life' they actually mean their memories.  By defeating ones enemies a Gutree can take their memories, or give them if they lose, as is their code of honour.  Such contests are usually single contests of the Bastaska.  Upon first contact with a new tribe or group a single champion from each side will take part in the Bastaska duel.  Regardless of the fight outcome, the fact that the contest was fought is enough for both sides to consider the other worthy of friendship.

Bastaska:  The Bastaska itself is a crystal 'rope', and is carried by all Gutree warriors.  The Bastaska Contest is a duel between two single contestants.  Each contestant holds an end of the Bastaska, and a fight ensues.  The fight can be hand-to-hand or with melee weapons (you can use blasters too if you really want - see below).  The first person to let go of the Bastaska loses, and must forfeit their 'life'

GM Notes: Running a Bastaska Duel.  Use brawl or melee combat rules as normal.  Whenever either combatant takes a wound or stun they must make an Dexterity: Easy (DC10) die roll, or loose the Bastaska.  If incapacitated the Bastaska is obviously dropped.

Taking 'life':  Once victorious in a duel, Bastaska duel or otherwise, the winning Gutree will touch their opponent.  In a few seconds all of that persons memories will be passed to the victor.  Vice-versa, by touching a defeated Gutree you can take their 'life' memories.

GM notes: Only the persons memories are transferred.  Skills are never increased by taking 'life'.

Personality Friendly, yet fierce.  Combat plays a big part of Gutree society, though fights to the death are extremely rare with Gutree rarely holding grudges.

Special Abilities

Blaster Resistance:  Gutree are impervious to blaster fire of Character or Speeder Scale.  Above this damage is applied as normal.  Should a Gutree be shot by a blaster the laser with simply refract through their body and exit at random.  The Gutree can NOT aim the refracted laser bolt out of their body.

Force resistance.  Gutree are immune to two force powers, Drain Life Essence and Transfer Life.  In fact the use of Transfer Life into a Gutree host has terrible consequences.  The Gutree, used to the transfer of memories will take the Dark Jedi's 'life' and the Dark Jedi's essence will be lost, transferred from their own body with an impossible to possess host, the Dark Jedi will die.

Force Sensitive:  YES.  Due to the Gutree's very nature they are all Force Sensitive.

Commune with Isis:  Should any natural disaster befall the planet Isis the Gutree will know.  The Gutree are effectively one with the planet.  They are also capable of controlling the planets surface.  By commanding the ground they stand upon the Gutree can turn the surface of the planet into a wave which they ride, or surf, in order to travel at greater speed.  THIS IS NOT A FORCE POWER and only Gutree may create these waves.
