Yttakin are a xenotype, genetically engineered to live on ultra-cold planets.

Lore

Since they migrated off their icy birthworld of Yttak, Yttakin settlements live on many planets. Their fur, roaring voices, and aversion to urban living sometimes leads naive outsiders to believe they are simple-minded animals. Quick-minded Yttakin are happy to make good use of such wrong beliefs, whether at the negotiating table or on the battlefield. - Tynan

Summary

Yttakin (pronounced roughly as ee-ta-keen) descend from colonists engineered to thrive on ultra-cold planets. Their great size and fur make them hardy in frozen environments. Yttakin share a psychic connection with the wildlife and can summon animals to their side during battles. They are not fast or energetic or precise, but can keep going when others would have collapsed long before.

  • Analysis

    Yttakin thrive in cold climates. They have a minimum comfortable temperature of -6 °C (21.2 °F), and only get hypothermia below -16 °C (3.2 °F). Yttakin are both robust and have strong melee damage, making them good combatants. However, slow wound healing makes them less effective than other xenotypes.

    As working colonists, the yttakin's main weakness is their extra sleep, caused by the Sleepy gene. A yttakin sleeping in a normal bed would spend 63.2% of the day awake, or sleep for 8.83 hours per day. A baseliner in the same bed would spend 70.6% of the day awake, or sleep for 7.05 hours per day. This would result in 89.5% awake time from the sleeping gene.

    Nudism

    Yttakin are geared towards nudism. Naked Speed provides +0.10 c/s move speed when unclothed, but −0.20 c/s otherwise. Robust helps mitigate the lack of armor, furskin and furry tail compensate for lack of cold protection. Nudist colonists gain access to the heavy bandolier, which reduces aiming cooldowns.

    This should be compared to the benefits of not being nude. Yttakin don't get any mood penalty for wearing clothes, just a single level of slowpoke. The benefits of Robust, furskin, etc. still apply.
