I have a player that would like to make one of these. For those not familiar they are in Star Wars: The Old Republic MMO.

I am leaning towards giving them base human starting Attributes, a free rank in brawl or melee and a freerank of the durable talent (or what ever the name of the talent is that reduces crit results by 10). Starting wounds 1 higher then a human and starting strain 1 less.

As they are a very brutal warrior culture I feel that this would be appropriate.

does this sound fair?

How about

Starting Exp: 80

Int +1, Wil -1

Woundlimit 12

STrainlimit 10

Rage as the Wookies

1 Rank in Brawl or Melee

1 Rank in Mechanics or Lore

what are your reasons for the stats, the justification for mechanics and lore as a skill choice and the battle rage? The only 2 NPCs in SWTOR that are Ratataki seem afar cry from flying off the handle for no reason. Kylio, while crazy, is more likely to get even the got bat **** on some one and the Lady of Pain, is more likely to be cold and calulating about wrighting a wrong.

I looked for the stats in the Kotor Sourcebook from Saga Edition ;-) And there they could fliy into a frenzy.

And for mechanics/Lore - their ancestors made the star forge ^^ But you could also give them an automatic Advantage on mech and lore rolls for their intuitive grasp on these things.

I think you're confusing the Rattataki for the Rakatans when it comes to the Star Forge. I would take the Wookie Rage and Mechanics rank off and keep the one rank in Brawl or Melee

Oops, yes, you´re right ^^

yeah, straight human stats, 90 Exp, +1 WT, +1 Rank in Brawl or Melee and 1 Rank in the Forager Talent

Thanks....why forager talent over Durable. I don't see any reason that they would be any better at looking for food then any other race. The durable makes more sense to me as they are regarded as fierce warriors and their culture seems more geared towards fighting and ignoring pain

Honestly, I'd just use the standard Human write-up. Not every variant of Human needs a separate write-up after all. And there's really not a lot to truly differentiate a Rattaki from a Human.

That's my reason for disliking Corellian Humans as a separate species along with... well, that's it for now.

I still suspect that was a "let's try this out and see how it's received" kind of deal. Given we've not seen a repeat in official material, I'm guess the negative response overall means that we're not likely to see another attempt at such a thing.

OMG this.
