Although mockingly nicknamed Asparagus Men, these guys are tough. They
aren't liked very much, but most intelligent people don't mess with them. The
Chatilians are from the planet Chatil in the Fomalhaut star system. They are
frail, delicate looking, greenish blue beings with thin bodies and large,
bullet shaped heads. The skull is crowned with sensory nodes which allows
these strange beings to generate matrices. Chatilians are herbivores. They
have no real mouth, rather they possess facial slits through which they strain
their food intake. The Chatilian Empaths communicate
among themselves telepathically and have great difficulty learning to speak
aloud. Although Empaths are innocuous looking, they are actually among the
more dangerous and formidable opponents in the galaxies. Through the
evolutionary process, they have developed psycho-kinetic power which allows
them to harness and transmit psychic energy. This unusual ability is called generating.
Chatilian special powers are some of the most potent in the game. Their energy
matrices are multi-faceted, allowing them to react differently to a variety
of situations. Empaths employ psychic, illusionary, and sonic attack forms.
High level Chatilians can actually crush the minds of their enemies.
The energy for generation is focused in the power crystal which a Chatilian
always wears on a chain around his neck. Without the crystal, the empath is
impotent, so most Empaths carry a backup crystal, just in case they should
lose the first one. An empath has the innate ability to read the minds of any
unprotected sentient in close proximity to his person. He must focus his
attention on one person only.

Notable Chatilian Statements:
I rather like the way his head exploded.
I am not whining. Shut up or ... Ahh!
You are now my friend.
