Minor Xenos Species: Rak'Gol

Notes:

Question.

What happens if you cross an Ork, a Dark Eldar and the Adeptus Mechanicus?

The answer's nothing good and that's exactly what the Rak’Gol are.

Living a nomadic life of vicious piratical raiders, Rak'Gol seemingly live for the sole purpose of hunting and slaying other creatures. Due to this, very little is known about their society, but one of the few concrete things we know is that they love cybernetics.

I want to make this clear. They love cybernetics.

Just like with Tech Priests, you can work out the rank of an individual based on the meat-to-machine ratio of their bodies; with their leaders, Rak'Gol Abominations, being nearly unidentifiable as living creatures.

Adding to their orkiness is one of the few weapons created by the Rak'Gol (They normally just use stolen weapons and technology), the Howler Rifle.

The Howler Rifle shoots so many bullets so quickly, that the muzzle flash can be used as an improvised flamethrower. That's a lot of dakka.

Unfortunately, their ship-building skills leave a lot to be desired; as they are all poorly built and the nuclear fission engines that power the ship routinely spring leaks which causes bursts of radiation strong enough to instantly kill a human being to flood through the entire ship; not that the Rak'Gol seem to mind that.

Even Orks find their ships to be primitive, and an Ork ship is just an inter-dimensional ballistic missile that occasionally doesn't blow up on landing.
