Lizard-Rock Chicken

Lizard-Rock Chicken

aka Lirocs

non sentient life form encountered on N'Ger



highly aggressive Terran cat sized carnivorous life form perhaps native to N'Ger. While several species had been studied by Union Science, no detailed study has performed relating them to their environment to determine if they are indeed native or introduced.

No other known world has been reported with these vermin present.

They hunt mostly at night and attack any heat source. (Even a fire that will injure or kill them)

The life from is rare in the regard that it combines both silicon and carbon based characteristics.

They have no visible eyes and only posses infrared sensitive receptor plates. Their head armor is made of a though silicate substance.

No known life form considers the Lircos as a food source, even though Nul, Pertharians and a few other Union species can safely consume the life form.

There are Liroc fight events where a heat source panel is glued to the body of a Liroc and then set against each other. Betting on the outcome is a form of local entertainment on N'ger.
