History
Finally, hostilties openly broke out with the Peacekeepers when Scorpius launched a surprise attack against a Scarran fleet. This turned out disastrously for the Peacekeepers as even though the initial attack was successful; the Scarran reprisals were heavy with star system after star system lost to the Scarran Imperium. Emperor Staleek took his flagship and troops to attain the wormhole information from John Crichton.
The war ended when Crichton detonated a wormhole weapon from the information in his mind which threatened to destroy all of existence. In exchange for stopping the weapon, the Scarrans agreed to form a tense peace treaty with the Peacekeepers thus ending the war.
Overview
Biology
The Scarrans were a powerful and intelligent species who were quite ambitious as well as had the steadfast belief in their own superiority.
One aspect of their biology was their strikingly high body temperature. This allowed them to employ this heat as a tol which gave them heat projection abilities that can be used to extract the truth from their victims. They were capable of even using this to kill their enemies and was projected from their hands.
In addition to this, they possess great strength which combined with their thick hides made them difficult to subdue. This greatly diminished if the heat producing gland was removed which severely weakened them.
A member of the species was capable of breeding with other races most notably Sebacean's with limited success creating hybrid offspring.
Society
The government of the race was the Scarran Imperium which bidded for control over the Breakaway Colonies which was a strategic buffer state between them and the Peacekeepers. They were keen in the development of wormhole technology and weapons.
Within the Scarran nation there existed numerous servitor races which included the savage Charrids that served as footsoldiers which accompanied individual Scarrans in battle. The Kalish were another race that served the Imperium but they held the role of scientists and technicians.
Scarrans have displayed a keen interest in reproductive genetics with varying degrees of success.
Technology
The Scarran race were a highly technologically advanced species which made use of massive Scarran Dreadnought's which were similar to the Scarrans themselves in that they were extremely difficult to destroy.
A noted piece of technology of the Scarrans was the capacity of employing complex methods of interrogation that created delusions in a subject's mind which slowly collapsed the person's mental resistance to information exctraction.
