Nek Puppies

Cyborrean Battle Dogs
"Neks" are a symbol of pride and might
throughout the Empire. Statues of them grace the grounds of the Imperial
Academy at Carida. They are used in a variety of situations from guards
to employment with scavengers. They therefore are in high demand and have
a high price tag to match. The job of breeding them can be very lucrative,
as Ca'rl Groobur can attest to, now that he lives on Sullust with a wonderful
view just oh so close to the hot springs at Piringiisi. So relaxing! |
Of course there is much that accounts for that high
price tag, not just supply and demand. For good quality dogs a proper pedigree
must be assured. Inbred neks tend to have odd behavioral habits like submissiveness,
which is not a desirable trait in battle dogs. Cybernetic enhancements don't
come cheap, either. Most of all, proper training is essential. What good
is a genetically and bionically enhanced killing machine if it doesn't know
how to kill? |
