Legend

a ruthless alien race native to the planet Rordak, the Viska are a species of flying carnivores which have two large wings, two arms, and a thick tail. They have long necks and small, triangular heads, and their mouths are circular in shape and protect the blossug, which is used to pierce the skin of their victims in order to feed. The Viska are feared throughout the galaxy because they survive by consuming the blood of their victims. They are incredibly adaptable to variations in climate. Their political system is led by a leader who is chosen in combat, when all the offspring of a deceased caleisk fight against each other until only one survives. The survivor becomes the new ruler of the Viska. Most other races in the galaxy simply refer to the Viska as the "great bloodsucking fiends of Rordak." Note that Dark Tide II: Ruin seems to indicate that the Viska is not sentient.
