  SPECIES ADJUSTMENTS
  +1 Agility, +2 Presence
  PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
  Tarlac are very attractive humanoids with the full 
  range of human coloring. They tend to be lean built 
  and the females usually sport very shapely figures.
  All Tarlac have pronounced cranial formations 
  consisting of deep depressions on the sides of the 
  skull with a pair of thick ridges in the center of the 
  forehead.
  They also have ample speckled markings following the 
  outer contour of the face and neck, and almost 
  completely covering the central forehead ridges.
  Tarlac women will often wear their hair pinned up in an 
  intricate hairstyle consisting of two or more braids 
  curled into wide arches and suspended behind their 
  heads, giving the appearance of high, sloping rings.
  CULTURE
  The Tarlac are not an overly outgoing species, having 
  been subjugated under the So'na for over a century.
  Tarlac are normally gentle and passive, although some 
  who have been trained to serve in the So'na military 
  will display aggressive tendencies, as well as a knack 
  for military strategy.
  Tarlac females are very tactile, friendly, and openly 
  sexual. Only Deltans and some Betazoids can surpass 
  a Tarlac's sexual appetite. 
  Tarlaca of both genders are well known for their skills in 
  sensual massage, and in using massage as a form of 
  physical therapy.
  Tarlacs are also considered on an equal level with the 
  Deltans in their abilities to give and experience physical 
  pleasure, and especially the pleasures of intimacy.
  LANGUAGES
  The Tarlac speak the common language of the So'na, 
  although some older Tarlac still speak and teach their native 
  language. Some Tarlac also speak Federation Standard; 
  especially if they are required by their profession or duties 
  to associate with humans and Starfleet officers.
  COMMON NAMES
  Tarlac have either a single name, usually of two or three 
  syllables; or a compound name. In the latter case the 
  second section of the name represents a clan or familial 
  affiliation.
  Such names are older names, among the Tarlac, and are not 
  in common use due to the subjugation under the So'na. 
  Acknowledgment of Tarlac family and clan names were 
  outlawed by the So'na in an effort to assert their superiority 
  over the Tarlac.
  Some younger Tarlac are reverting to their compound 
  names as a form of rebellion against So'na rule, and older 
  Tarlac tend to encourage this as a way of extenuating the 
  influence of true Tarlac culture.
  An example of a single name without the clan/family suffix 
  is Sharic. And an example of a name given with the proper 
  suffix is Kiri'shyna. In the latter case, the “shyna” would be 
  dropped under So'na law.
  Both of the above examples are female names.
  HOMEWORLD
  The original Tarlac homeworld was a beautiful green planet 
  with a thriving ecosystem, and a reasonably advanced 
  society functioning at a Tech level of 6.
  Then the planet, and its people were conquered by the 
  So'na.
  The planet still maintains some of its original physical 
  beauty, but several regions have become largely 
  industrialized to support So'na industries.
  Only about 20% of the Tarlac population actually live and 
  work on their home planet.
  FAVORED PROFESSION
  Tarlac females will often choose a profession in the role of a 
  caregiver, or a pleasure provider. And Prostitutes (Rogues) 
  are not uncommon.
  Males usually serve as Soldiers (especially in the So'na 
  fleet), or Mercenaries. 
  Both male and female Tarlac serve aboard So'na ships as 
  Starship Officers, serving in any variety of positions.
  There are even a few Tarlac serving in Starfleet. And 
  
  although there were only a handful prior to the mid 
  2370s, there are now several with females serving 
  often as Ship's Counselors and males excelling as 
  Security officers, and Operations personnel.
  SPECIES ABILITIES
  Subjugated: (species Flaw)The Tarlac are a generally 
  passive species, and have long been under the control 
  of the So'na. As a result of their subjugated status 
  they are not the most resolute of individuals and 
  suffer a -1 penalty to their Willpower reaction rolls.
  Empathetic: Tarlac are naturally compassionate, and 
  very empathic. They will easily concern themselves 
  over the emotional states of others. This is what 
  makes Tarlacs so good at intimate relations, as well as 
  giving them a natural knack for the profession of 
  Ship's Counselor. Tarlac receive a +1 species bonus to 
  Influence, Negotiate, and Persuade tests. If a Tarlac 
  takes the Psionic, she receives the Empathy skill at 
  level 1 for free.
  Bonus Edges: Skill Focus (Compassionate), Friendly 
  (Males only), Sexy (Females only – see A Piece of the 
  Action netbook, p. 13)
  Species Flaws: Thin-blooded (Cold), Coward (Optional 
  – some Tarlac, especially those born under So'na 
  subjugation, are not overly courageous unless they 
  have undergone military training)
