Claws: Noghri have powerful claws (add +1D to damage in brawling combat) and sharp teeth (add +2D to damage in brawling combat).
Stealth: Noghri have such a natural ability to be stealthy that they receive a +2D when using their hide or sneak skills.
Enhanced Senses: Because the Noghri have a combination of highly specialized senses, they receive a +2D when using their search skill.

Background: Rukh was a male Noghri from Honoghr who served as the bodyguard and assassin of Imperial Grand Admiral Thrawn. Thrawn used Rukh’s name as the override command for his sparring droids. Rukh was an excellent tracker and fighter with a strong sense of smell. During Darth Vader’s mission with Thrawn, Rukh snuck around the barracks where Vader’s personal forces resided, clearly not trusting them. In 1 BBY, Thrawn employed Rukh’s services in hunting down members of the Spectres rebel cell and the Lothal resistance group. Rukh played an important role in capturing the Spectres leader and Rebel Alliance General Hera Syndulla during the failed attack on Lothal. Rukh would later see further action against the Spectres in the lead up to the Liberation of Lothal. Rukh perished at the hands of Garazeb Orrelios, who electrocuted him while fighting inside the Imperial Complex.
