Space Eel

"My word. Have you ever seen anything so repulsive?"
Those were the reputed words of Elk Wilson himself when he stepped out the shower onto one of these. Indiginous to space, these creatues vary widely in size and strength but are more than able to deliver a stinging bout of slime when they feel threatened. Despite this, they're recommended as the basic foodstuff for the newcomer's appetite for killing things. As with earth, they can be considered "MOSTLY HARMLESS"

• 1x Acid Eel Slime
• 500 hull
• drop 4 m³ 2 m³ 3 m³
• 37-65 XP

Space Eel Mother

"Yum?"
Slightly more meaty than their spawn, when Elk Wilson stepped on one of THESE, aesthetics were the last thing on his mind. Quite how he stepped on one is another matter. The space eel mother is, as expected, a slightly tougher nut to crack (or make splat in satisfying ways in this case) but shouldn't be shied away from by any means. As Elk himself says: "Give 'em a poke and see what happens."
Just... Not good for eating.

Rogue Pirate

"OAAAAAARRRR"
Captain Paddle was the pioneer of space pirating. He didn't have an eye patch or a beard. In fact he was the most disappointing pirate the galaxy has known and so was included in public circles. In fact, it's hard to find any evidence that he did anything illegal at all... Unfortunately for we noble travelers, the luckless individuals who have lost their way and are classified as 'Rogue Pirates' aren't quite as unrecognizable. They WILL have your guts for garters but give it a couple of weeks and you should be able to take them down. Unfortunately, they're dead poor and it's a bit of an anti-climax when you find a couple of tonnes of light ore. Pirates. Gr.

"Caution!!!!"
Heavens Wrath Alliance Pilots such as Bladefist, are another group of opponents which are also known as Rogue Pirates, as they will attack you often and mercilessly for merely having the gall to fly in the same space as their goal is universal domination at all costs.

• Shield - Various
• Armor - Various
• Hull - Various
• Drops - you back to your homeworld
  

Regarding the above accusation:
PAH!

Master Pirate

"Only 1 thing is worse than a pirate: 2 pirates.
That famous proverb sums up the master pirate. Think ye of a rogue pirate and times it by two and a bit and: Voila. Happyjoy, we arrive at the 'master pirate.' These 'pesky rascals' have sussed that sitting there waiting to get attacked isn't the most successful tactic. These 'blighters' go even as far as ambushing! I know; what has the world come to? Never fear though - as of yet, they can't cloak, so you can just walk around them. Once you get to their level though, their spoils are much more satisfactory than their predecessors.

• 4x 10 MJ Pulse Laser

Vorpal Fang

"Your face looks like a Vorpal Fang"
Oh. Oh. The sweet scent of nostalgia. Who hasn't been called a Vorpal Fang on the virtual playground? Mmmmm... Aside from that, according to Pork Mythology, Vorpal Fangs were the foot mould of the great giant Daisy Boo. 1 thing's for sure, spraying them with obnoxious chemicals won't do you a lot of good - once they hold on, they don't let go (well, to an extent - it'd be pretty silly if it held on for ETERNITY). Yeah. Not comfort killing for beginners.

• 3x Small Vorpal Teeth (28 damage)
• 4x Large Vorpal Teeth (45 damage)
• 2x Vorpal Acid Spit (34 damage)
• 2,425 armor, 800 hull
• 2,026-2,803 XP

Interstellar Wasp

"I'd rather be a wasp than eat vegetables"
Needless to say, President Brian McDuh was a bit... questionable. McDuh declared war on vegetables back in the year of the Small Grunting Crisp Packet and greengrocers have never fully recovered since - Especially due to constant raids from these beasties. Interstellar Vegetable Consuming Wasps (or more commonly known as just 'Intersteller Wasps') are particularly fond of courgettes - causing much controversy over whether they actually are a vegetable or not. Clearly, such petty arguments are irrelevant when you're confronted with one of these. I think McDuh would recommend a wee bit of practice before waving a carrot in front of this insect.

• 8x Wasp Claws (52 damage)
• Wasp Bite (500 damage)
• 1,175 shield, 2,925 armor, 900 hull
• 3,036-3,882 XP

Space Monkey

"So err... Where did the suit come from?"
That, is the greatest second greatest unsolved mystery known to philosophers to date but some speculate that it is in fact the next step in the evolutionary cycle for us. However attempts to communicate don't go very far as the pulses emitted by the monkey are detrimental to the structural integrity of most ships (quite how this works in a vacuum I'm not sure...) and no instruments can yet get past this rather curious barrier in communication. Needless to say, if you've fresh earned your wings, speaking to this buckoe should NOT be at the top of your list (let alone nabbing his 'nana).

• 15x Monkey Shriek (88 damage)
• Flying Banana (900 damage)
• 1,800 shield, 100 armor, 1,200 hull
• 4,410 XP

Shambling Morass

"The Shambling Morass is really not a very nice thing"
Ah, doesn't the nursery rhyme bring back waves of nostalgia...? Don't touch if you value your insides.

• 12x Shambling Bite
• Shambling Torpedo
• 600 shield, 1,600 armor, 1,400 hull
• 6,861 XP
