Topic: The Mustela Pack

The Mustela

The Mustela are 1.2 meter tall bipeds with a passing resemblance to a terran weasel. The main differences being their ability to speak, use tools, and three rows of boney spikes running along their spine from head to tail.  Their disposition is every bit as similar.

Mustela are organized in a pack mentality, ruled by the strongest.  They believe that anything they want is theirs by right if whomever owns it is to weak to defend it.  The more successful leaders of their society hold their rule more by treachery and guile than outright blood combat.  The whole society is ruled by a Grand Pack Leader from a very secure stronghold on their home world.  As usual with among Mustellans, his authority only extends to the reach of his fangs. 

Mustela pack squadrons avoid strongly held systems and convoys unless they hold some sort of advantage.  By preference, they prey on the weaker targets they come across.  Sometimes pack squadrons will combine when one leader slays another, but only for so long as the pack leader can enforce his authority.  Eventually a strong enough subordinate arises and leads a splinter group away to form a new pack.  All pack squadrons report to the Grand Pack Leader eventually, usually when repair and re-supply become unavoidable.  A tithe of their plunder is rendered over to the home world in exchange for these services and to appease their ‘great leader'.  Pack squadron leaders who have failed to render over a tithe are often found hanging from their ships, gutted like a fresh killed Harrstorrk.

Mustela pack squadrons are actively hunted by most other galactic powers when their presence in an area becomes known. The Remans take great pains in their efforts related to Mustela pack squadrons.  Fortunately, for the Mustela, their ships are very hard targets.
