Name                                     := Shag'Toth
Description                              := Mysterious beings that rove the galaxy capturing the souls of the dying in special globes, saving them from the oblivion of death.
Empire Name                              := Shag'Toth
Empire Type                              := Collective
Emperor Name                             := Ch'ian
Emperor Title                            := High Seer
Biological Description                   := The Shag Toth are humanoid in appearance, with an oval stone like gland or device in the centre of their forehead. These glands seem to be a focus for mental powers and can project mental images much like a hologram. It may also help in personal defence. Minbari records imply they live as long as 10,000 years. Very little else is known. They have an ability or sixth sense for anticipating impending death and appear in areas of conflict in order to harvest souls.
Society Description                      := Unknown; due to their reclusively they have very little contact with others. They refer to themselves as an order. "Soul Hunters" as they are known, do not believe in an after life and regard it as their duty to find and preserve the noblest of Souls in the cosmos. They are consequently at odds with races with such a religious foundation; this unfortunately happens to be most of them.   They do not wish to harm others as violence damages the soul. They are not malevolent or evil, going out of their way to understanding and kind to other races and doing their best to avoid engaging in any hostile acts. However, they can be obsessed with their soul saving, ignoring the wishes of others, and believing that they are doing what is best.
General History Description              := According to Minbari records, the Shag Toth have been space capable some 40,000 years. Further more, they indicate that the Technological growth of the Soul Hunters has been nil, with no apparent changes or advances in the aeons the Minbari have been keeping records on the dreaded hunters. Despite this, Soul Hunter ships are still more advanced than those used by most races and, like the Minbari, use Quantum and Gravitic technology.  Ships used by the Soul Hunters are single person craft, approximately fifty meters in length and armed with weapons equal to those used by the Minbari. Hull composition has proved resistant to scans, but appears to be some sort of poly-crystalline mesh. Some indicators also suggest that some of the ship's features are possibly bio-organic in nature.   "Their ships provide all their nutritional needs and Soul Hunters can function for several days before having to return to them. They store "their" collected souls in "Whispering Galleries" on hidden worlds." (Ref. IPX Achieve)  Minbari files indicate that the ships of Soul Hunters have a unique way of boarding a target vessel. Called an "Inferno Shield" which can burn through the hull of any ship.  Soul Hunters are powerful; combat with them is dangerous and is to be avoided if one has the choice.
