A virus that infects members of this race can be neutralized if the (-5[1])computer terminal holding the virus is digested by a Lanius. Traders of this race may use the confusing greeting, “Your scrap, ours. Our weapons for you.” A Med-bot Dispersal system developed by this race can heal (*) crew members anywhere on a ship if the medbay is powered.
