Not having anything that resembles blood, the Takala don’t quite “bleed” as much as they have bits of themselves fall out once a hole is big enough. Their brain is located where earth animals would have a stomach, with the destruction of their “head” simply being very inconvenient.  Portions of their body are also covered in incredibly tough scales, protecting them from attacks much in the way as a ceramic plate stops a bullet when shattered. It's said that a Takala missing all of its scales is a sign of truly fearsome fighter, as losing so much protection while also still surviving is no easy feat.\r\n\r\n\u003Ch2>HISTORY\u003C\u002Fh2>\r\nThe Takala are a recent addition to life beyond the stars. As their home planet does not have surface metals or hard rock, the evolution of their planet is very different from that of earth. With no way for a prey species to make tools that could overcome their biological disadvantages like humanity did, the dominant animal of the planet was (and is) simply the biggest and most vicious predator. Towering over every other species in their dense jungle-like home world, the Takala are that apex predator.\r\n\r\nIn their long time as the dominant species, they have also evolved an equally impressive intelligence. The Takala are notably smarter than humans, having taken only a couple of generation to adapt to human technology and integrate themselves into various rimworld colonies. Their violent evolutionary background often leads them into lives as pirates and slavers (with the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fsteamcommunity.com\u002Fsharedfiles\u002Ffiledetails\u002F?id=1783636077\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gerzee\u003C\u002Fa> being a favorite target), though their intellect makes them popular for scientific roles as well. \r\n\r\nWith the reflexes to dodge melee attacks and the bodily finesse to accurately fire weapons, they are nature’s perfect killing machines. Being culturally violent, the only thing that kept their population in check was their tendency to kill each other. Humanity would probably have never have let these formidable beings spread out amongst their colonies if it weren’t for one important fact: the Takala are comparatively tiny. Standing at about 4 feet tall (1.2 meters), their status as an apex predator on their home world does not mean much when standing next to an average human. And so, the Takala simply do not pose a significant threat to humanity. At least not yet.\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003Ch2>MOD COMPATIBILITY:\u003C\u002Fh2>\r\n\u003Cul>\u003Cli>Combat Extended\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>Gerzee Expansion\u003C\u002Fli>\u003C\u002Ful>\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003Ch2>PLANS FOR THE FUTURE:\u003C\u002Fh2>\r\n\u003Cul>\u003Cli>Hopefully, better in-game art.
