Necessary Evil Alien Stats
The V’sori War Machine[edit]
Drones
Despite their different races, most drones have the exact same abilities. All Drone equipment is internal, so it cannot be stolen. Most humanoid drones look much the same, being completely encased in form-fitting body armor with visored helmets. Every drone bristles with the weaponry, cables, and piping necessary for it to complete its assigned duties. Drone

Hyper-Drones
When it becomes apparent that the typical Drone soldier is no match for a superpowered Earthling, the V’sori unveil the Hyper-Drones. These poor souls have their cybernetics wired to overcharged internal power plants. It grants them extreme power at the cost of eating away at their bodies, not that the V’sori care. Hyper-Drones appear to be hairless, yellowing humans with bloodshot eyes and cables running in and out of their body at various intervals. With heavy clothing, they can still pass themselves off as humans, unless a close examination is made. Hyper-Drones have a blaster cannon hidden within their mouth, thus they do no speak.

War Spheres
When there isn’t much of a rebels body left to turn it into a standard drone, V'sori scientists make the best of what’s left. War spheres are floating, metallic drones the size of beach-balls tasked either for attack or defense. The war sphere also possesses retractable manipulator arms to perform simple tasks. Located in the center of a War Spheres well-armored shell is the still-living brain of the rebel subject, wiped and cybernetically controlled in exactly the same way as standard drones.

G’rok
G’roks are a species native to one of the V’sori conquered worlds. They can best be described as two tons of ruthless killing machine with a stubborn persistence when tracking their prey. G’roks cannot see and have a reduced sense of hearing, however they have six triangular nasal sensors that are placed across the front and sides of their skull, giving them an unparalleled sense of smell. Since g’roks tend to eat anything smaller than themselves, their offspring exude a pheromone that effectively makes them invisible to mature g’roks. After several problems with a resistance group based in the sewers of Ocean City, the V’sori released dozens of g’roks into the system. Groups of these g’roks have survived by living off rats, cats, and anything else they come upon in the sewers.

K’tharen Elite Force (Fin)
The K’tharen are a large (over 7' tall) and powerful alien race. They have a basic humanoid form but with a thick crocodile-like hide. Their head has a distinctive shark-like appearance, especially with the fin-ridge that runs along the top of their skull. Their coloration runs towards the darker end of the spectrum along their backs, from light greens to blue and violet, while the front is universally pale. The K’tharen grow darker along their dorsal ridge as they age, and older members can appear pure black.
K’tharen Warrior (Shark Troopers)
K'tharen warriors wear little in the way of actual clothing while operating in terrestrial environments, but are never seen without their combat harness, a bandolier-like device that allows Fins to carry a host of weaponry, as well as additional ammunition and what passes for field rations (normally raw meat of some unspeakable origin).

They have however lost some of their agility in the water from the extra weight of their implants. Like all K’tharen, they refuse to use any hand weapons other than their own claws and teeth, including implant weapons.

SOCorp
SOCorp is a law enforcement agency in Star City established by Major Jimmy Perez. Ostensibly, they enforce the V’sori rule within the city, Generally they are well armed, well-armored, and highly motivated. A unit of SOCorp operatives can generally take down even super-powered threats with the right tactics. When expecting such opposition, they can prove downright deadly.
The gear listed represents standard loadouts; when SOCorp personnel anticipate dealing with superpowered threats they can gain access to net-guns, foam-throwers, and mega-tasers. Against high-priority targets they may field fusion grenades, vibro-blades, and even the occasional plasma rifle.

Additionally, most V`sori possess Psionic Mastery, an ability that allows them to perform a number of psionic-based superpowers.
