Next question please

[Danos]

OK, my next question. Name the creature that is kept in cages in kitchens and food storage areas on Irem and Tsuma to feed on vermin.

[Angelman]

I skimmed Lord Estiban's Stellar Bestiary and I too drew a blank...

[Danos]

OK, A hint, because this is imho exactly why we are doing the quiz - so GMs can be aware of interesting stuff buried in the text. But I'm not just giving this up too easily. This creature's homeworld is one of the worlds along the Kurgan pilgrimage route.

[Angelman]

Found it! It's the "Tree Squid" (Polyconstrictor) of Hira

They sit in trees and catch food with their tentacles, which is why small specimen are "kept in hanging cages in kitchens and food storage areas to feed on vermin in densely populated cities on Tsuma an dIrem". Interesting imagry here

[Danos]

Yes! Something to remember if your party ever heads into Kurgan space. I use them as part of the setting from Hira to Tsuma to Antioch, critters that might be found for sale in the bazaar or found when sneaking around homes.

Question: Who went by the codename "Bad Karma" and what did the individual do?

[Danos]

Muster Vigil agent/judge Parvinder Sholto, specialist in seeking out proof of monopoly violations. His cover was blown by Li Halan agents on Kish in late 4999.

[Angelman]

Correct! I thought that one was going to be very difficult
