Language

Skolexari is a melodic language with a lot of trills and rolling vowels. They have different dialects depending on regions. Have strong x, h, xh, throat sounds (glottal), and rolled r.

All Skolexari speak their native language.

They use “x” to indicate a hard throat sound after the letter. 

Have u, y, and ü.

Most Skolexari speak intergalactic standard, a language designed in the SB-5 Pact as a way of communicating and understanding important terms.

Universal translators are commonplace but some view them as a sign of stupidity or laziness. They can be implanted or installed on comm-lines. Skolexari are taught intergalactic standard in school as children and encouraged to learn it and speak it without the use of a device, those who cannot be seen as stupid.

Bark Boxes: collars with translators on them, put on slaves so they can speak Skolexari.

Slavery involves a small percentage of the Empire’s total population, but it is an established and highly visible industry.  Skolexari don't like aliens, many of them find owning a slave weird, distasteful. They have 2 distinctions for aliens (slaves). Aliens (glarbash or bokosh) live in constant danger if unregistered (without Master). No recognition of personhood. Registered slave becomes property, protected by Skolexari property laws. Skolexari primarily use aliens as a food source, which they call exotic meat. Unwanted glarbash or bokosh are sold at Skolexari slave markets. A Skolexari may watch the auctions for an alien that looks like they would make a good slave, buy them, and hope for the best. If something doesn't work out, the slave can easily be re-sold at the market to someone else. Most Bokosh don’t make good pets or ...
