  1. Now that's what I call a Kitchen Sink setting. :)

    How about the Sectaurs?

  2. Thanks Trey :)

    Sectaurs was already up there though. The Sectaurs planet Symbion is listed under "The Many Moons of the Old Ones". They might be more fun as PCs or monsters, but the backstory works best as a stand alone planet.

    I like how they all evolved from insects after scientists in the ancient past had their genetic experiments go awry. I only ever saw a couple of episodes of the cartoon though.
