Special Abilities:
Amphibious: Nephran can survive both on land and in water. They gain a +1D bonus to swimming checks.
Chitinous Carapace: A Naphran’s exoskeleton provides the species a +1D bonus to Strength to resist physical damage.
Claws: The Nephran gain a +1D bonus toward the success of any grappling attempts or grip-related checks made with their pinchers, and a +1D bonus to grappling/crushing damage.
“Desperado” Bravado: Therm Scissorpunch wants desperately to earn a name for himself in the Underworld. As such, he has taken to displays of posturing bravado and to attempts at inventing his own legend.
Therm will not only fabricate self-aggrandizing stories about working for secret, high-powered crimebosses, he will award himself “tough” sounding nicknames.
Eyestalks: Capable of moving independently, the eyestalks of Nephran grant them a +1D bonus to vision-based Perception or search rolls.
Fearsome Appearance: The crustacean features of the Nephran are often off-putting and even frightening to many, granting the species a +1D bonus to their Intimidation checks.
Poor Fine Motor Dexterity: Because their large claws lack fingers, tasks that require fine manual dexterity and/or digital manipulation are more difficult for Nephran than they are for species with individual, more dexterous digits.
Nephran attempt such actions at +2D to the normal difficulty.

Background: Thermoculus Krisintvolt Scissorpunch, also known simply as Therm Scissorpunch was a male Nephran from the planet Nepotis who lived in the galaxy for more than three centuries. A gambler and pirate, he became a close associate of the pirate queen Maz Kanata in the High Republic Era and defended her stake of the planet Takodana against the rival Dank Graks in a criminal turf war. Scissorpunch lived through the fall of the Republic and the rise of the Empire. His card-playing habits saw him frequent the tables of the planet Vandor, where he would play against the likes of scoundrels Lando Calrissian and Han Solo. A particularly sore loser, he relied on his fearsome appearance to intimidate his opponents. The boastful Nephran had taken steps to enhance his fighting prowess with a sharpened shank implanted in his claw, living up to the moniker that may or may not have been his true name.
