Junarri was a Dasc, one of the smallest races in the V’kit’no’sat similar to the Ari’tat, though slightly larger with an armored stripe from the back of its head all the way down to its tail tip. Small nubs appeared all over the armor, some sharpened, some dull, but when Dasc…known to old Earth as ‘Scutellosaurus’…wrapped their tail around to touch their face, their armor acted as a firm support for their wheel-shaped body. They had the option of rolling like the Rammus did, though they rarely used it. Mostly they hopped around like a kangaroo, looking like a tiny Rit’ko’sor, but within the V’kit’no’sat they were far less respected.

In fact they were one of the lowest races in stature and territory. 93% of their worlds were shared ones, and the primary reason the Zak’de’ron had recruited them was for their judgement. They were wiser than most races, which made up somewhat for their lack of physical or psionic power. They did not have Sav, nor any other special psionic, only the base Ikrid, Lachka, and Pefbar that all V’kit’no’sat races had.

Junarri stood only a meter tall at the hip, though he stretched out more than 3 meters in length. That made him one of the larger ones, for his race did not possess Ultras. What they did have was an uncanny knack for evaluation, making them some of the best researchers, scouts, and all around troubleshooters in the empire…but when strength was valued most of all, many forgot the power in such attributes and deemed the Dasc as an undeserving member.

The Ari’tat were less disrespected, for they got involved in the politics of the empire far more effectively. They were also good traders, and while the Dasc maintained elite marks there, they didn’t have the territory needed to facilitate enough trade to have an empire-wide impact.

So the Dasc networked out with the few allies and neighbors they had, doing their part to help the overall empire mostly through research and battle against the Hadarak. Their fleet of starburst-shaped warships didn’t rely on their physical size, and in fact the smaller the crew was, the more machinery you could pack into the mandated hull volumes. For that reason their ships were among the most powerful per mass, but they only built the smaller models.

They had no Kafcha, nor did they have any Na’shor. Their largest ships were Dak’bri battlecruisers, and to the diminutive Dasc they were unnecessarily large vessels. Most of the Dasc fleet was made up of Ti’mat and Wur’ki, and they’d wisely chosen to make hundreds of such vessels for what it would have cost to produce a single Kafcha.

Furthermore, they built reinforced command decks within their vessels to increase the likelihood of recovering crew from destroyed warships. They didn’t like losing what little population they had, for wisdom was not something one was hatched with. It was accumulated over time, whereas muscle strength came much more quickly. Thus the Dasc had
