3/21
RacesThere are an almost infinite number of races in the universe. In Babylon 5, a number of themare playable the major races, so to speak. The following presents the races plus the name of
their governmental body.
Abbai (Abbai Mat riarchat e)
The Abbai were the leading force in founding the Leage of Non-
Aligned Worlds. A peaceful, semi-aquatic race, the Abbai are the
social glue holding the league together. Abbai found outside theirsystem are usually traders or pilgrims seeking either friendly
contact with other races or enlightenment as to the nature of what
community means to other sentient races.
Racial Abilit ies
Deep Thinkers Abbai start with a d6 in Smarts (+2)
Peaceful Abbai abhor the use of violence, but recognize the
value of a good defence. When taking the Defend maneuver,members of this race gain a +3 bonus instead of +2. (+1)
Muscular Underdeveloped Abbai need to spend 2 points during Character creation to raise
Strength and need to spend 2 leveling opportunities to raise it during gameplay. (-3)
Semi-Aquatic Abbai can hold their breath 15 minutes. In water rich with oxygen (like in
the seas of their homeplanet), they can stay underwater for a duration equal to their Vigor inhours. (+1)
Value Knowledge above all Abbai start with a d6 in a knowledge skill of their choosing.
Brakiri (Brakiri Syndicracy)The Brakiri have gained a reputation as pack rats who inventnothing, but rather steal or buy technological advances from other
races. Still, the Brakiri Syndicate has developed into a major power
of the League of Non-Alignes Worlds through their political contacts
and trade treaties.
Racial Abilit ies
Darkvision Brakiri are able to see in total darkness due to their
thermal vision. (+1)
Accustomed to Heat Brakiri gain a +4 bonus when rolling for
Fatigue due to Heat. (+2)
Eager to Trade Brakiri are obsessed with trading, making them predisposed for this
profession. They suffer the effects of the minor version of the Greedy Hindrance.
Cent auri (Cent auri Republic)
The Centauri Republic was once a mighty empire which has grown
decadent and is in a slow decline. The Centauri, a humanoid race
similar in appearance to humans, are a proud and aristocratic people
governed by an emperor and a nobility-driven senate called the
Centaurum. Centauri males wear their hair in fanlike crests, the
height of which displays the male's rank in society; females aretraditionally bald except for a long queue or ponytail.
8/14/2019 Savage Babylon5
4/21
The Centauri were the first alien race to openly contact humanity. The Centauri initially triedto convince the humans that they were a long lost colony of the Republic. This ruse failed
once human scientists got access to Centauri DNA, but Centauri-Human trade and contact led
to tremendous technological advancement and humanity's eventual rise as a major power. For
instance, it was the Centauri who sold jumpgate technology to the Earth Alliance, allowing
humanity to start colonizing interstellar space.
Racial Abilit ies
Born to Intrigue Centauri are raised with intrigue, backstabbing and political maneuvering.
Its basically their second nature. This enables them to excel in influencing others, granting
them +2 to their Charisma. (+2)
Vigorous Centauri are noted for their personal excesses, especially of food, drink andentertainment. This has, in turn, made them more resilient theres little you can do to a
Centauri, that he hasnt already done to himself. Members of this race start with a d6 in Vigor.
(+2)
Racial Enemies (Narn) Centauri regard Narns as brutal, mindless savages, who shouldrightfully be either the subjects of Centauri rule or eradicated from the face of the universe.
When dealing with Narns, Centauri are considered to be Bloodthirsty and at -4 Charisma. (-1)
Obligations to his House There are practically no Centauri who are able to travel through
the universe and dont belong to one of the numerous minor or major noble houses. Theseconnections will come to haunt the character from time to time and he will be asked to
perform some task for the benefit of his house or for the ones his house is allied with. Thisworks as the minor version of the Vow Hindrance (-1)
Drazi (Drazi Freehold)
The Drazi are reptilian in appearance, with green skin and thick skullbones, although they are otherwise humanoid. They are a member of
the League of Non-Aligned Worlds. Male Drazi have a pouch in one
of their armpits; it is actually used as a reproductive area.
The ancient Drazi used to live outdoors, only sleeping inside at night.
As a result Drazi houses are constructed with large balconies and a
much smaller interior. The streets on the Drazi homeworld are very
narrow, reflecting their long history of warfare: armoured Drazivehicles found it impossible to invade an enemy city without first
demolishing its buildings.
Every six Earth years, the Drazi have a "civil war" among two rivalfactions, green Drazi and purple Drazi. A Drazi's allegiance is decided
arbitrarily by choosing a coloured sash which is then worn around their torso, either green or
purple. There is no inherent motive or reason for the civil war at all. This "civil war" takes theform of a series of non-lethal contests.
Racial Abilit ies
Strong race Drazi start with a d6 in Strength (+2)
Slow thinkers Drazi need to spend 2 points during Character creation to raise Smarts and
need to spend 2 leveling opportunities to raise it during gameplay. (-3)
Trained Fighters Drazi are trained from early on for personal combat. Their Parry is raisedby +1. (+2)
Thick Scales Their thick reptilian hide gives Drazi a natural armor of +1. (+2)
8/14/2019 Savage Babylon5
5/21
Short Fuse Drazi are easily enticed to a fight. They suffer -2 when resisting Taunts. (-2)
First to Act Drazi are quick to jump into action. If not surprised, they are alwaysconsidered to be On Hold during the first round of combat. (+1)
Humans (Earth Alliance)
The Earth Alliance was founded at the end of the twenty-first century after the Third World
War, first as a loose coalition of nations, then as a tight alliance of nearly every nation onEarth as well as Alliance controlled colonies throughout the Galaxy,
though colonial populations have had a history of independencedriven rebellion, especially Mars. The Alliance is a unicameral
representative democracy under the leadership of an elected
President with a strong military.
Since the end of the Earth-Minbari War, the Alliance had prosperedin interstellar trade, though some influential factions had become
increasingly xenophobic and isolationist. Adding to the milieu is thePsi Corps, an increasingly powerful quasi-military organization
which regulates and controls human telepaths.
Racial Abilit ies
Free Edge Humans start with a free Edge as per the Savage Worlds Rulebook.
Minbari (Minbari Federat ion)
Already advanced when humanity was young and capable of space
travel for well over a thousand years, the Minbari Federation is a caste
society, its people divided into the worker, warrior, and religious
castes.
The Minbari are led by the Grey Council, which contains ninerepresentatives, three from each of the three castes. Minbari are
humanoid, usually thin and pale, though considerably stronger than
humans of the same size; they are bald, with gray bony crests across
the back of their heads. The first encounter between Minbari and Humans was a disaster - amisunderstanding led to Earth ships firing on Minbari ships, killing their leader Dukhat,
resulting in the Earth-Minbari War. Shortly before reaching Earth, the Minbari surrenderedand retreated. To this day, the reason for this reprieve is unknown.
Racial Abilit ies
Strong Race Minbari start with a d6 in Strength. (+2)
Distant and Indifferent Minbari are said to care only for themselves and regard other racesas mere children compared to themselves. They suffer a -2 penalty to their Charisma. (-1)
Resilient Minbari are hard to defeat and are quite stubborn when they have their mind seton a task. They gain +2 to Fatigue rolls. (+1)
Caste Every Minbari is part of a caste. At character generation, the player has to choose the
cast:
Religious Caste Members of this caste gain a +2 bonus to Common Knowledge
rolls, but suffer the Pacifist Hindrance (Minor). (0)
Warrior Caste Drilled to excellence, Minbari Warriors are told to be almost
unstoppable. They gain the effect of the Quick Edge. Characters taking the QuickEdge as well discard any card lower than 8 instead of 5. On the downside of their
8/14/2019 Savage Babylon5
6/21
training, Warrior caste members feel superior to others (maybe rightly so). They suffer
the effect of the Overconfident Hindrance. (0)
Worker Caste Members of this caste gain a free d6 in the repair skill. They also
halve all times when constructing or repairing equipment. Workers are hesitant to
engage in combat. During combat, they always draw two cards and act on the lower of
the two. (0)
Narn (Narn Regim e)
Another "young race" like humanity, the Narn Regime were previously occupied andenslaved by the Centauri, and bear them deep ill-will because of the brutal methods of control
employed. Narns are widely perceived to be primitive and barbaric, a stereotype the Centauri
engendered during their occupation.
The Narn are led by the Kha'Ri council. Their religion
venerates philosopher prophets, and most Narn draw
strength from various different holy writings, themost noted being The Book of G'Quan. Narns are tall
and have a stocky build; they are bald, with a
yellowish complexion, mottled with brown and/orgreen spots. Although they appear reptilian, they are
in fact marsupial and at least presumably mammalian,
in nature.
Racial Abilit ies
Hardy Narns are able to take a beating and still keep coming. A second Shaken result never
incurs a wound. (+3)
Low Light Vision Narns halve all lighting penalties except in total darkness (+1)Reputation as Savages Narns are considered to be upstarts among most of the other races,
suffering a -2 to their Charisma. (-1)
Racial Enemies (Centauri) Narns regard Centauri as ruthless oppressors, turning the oncepeaceful and agrarian Narns into a warlike people fighting for indepence. When dealing with
Centauri, Narns are considered to be Bloodthirsty and at -4 Charisma. (-1)
PakMaRa (PakMaRa)
The Pak'ma'ra are members of the League of Non-Aligned Worlds. For
religious reasons, they are dedicated carrion eaters, partly because the
Pak'ma'ra consider themselves superior to other races. The pak'ma'raare generally considered stupid and lazy by members of other races,
who are also generally disgusted by their eating habits. They have thereputation for scavenging not only their foods but also technologies.
Broadly humanoid in form, the Pak'ma'ra have tentacles around a
mouth cavity containing an inflexible beak, somewhat reminiscent of
the mind flayers or Cthulhu. As this combination renders their mouthsincapable of forming words in most other species' languages, they rely
on machine translation for interspecific communication.
8/14/2019 Savage Babylon5
7/21
Racial Abilit ies
Carrion Eaters The Pak'ma'ra subsist on corpses. Most other races find this repulsive,
resulting in a -2 to Charisma when dealing with them. (-2)
See No Evil Because of this, said races will subliminally ignore the presence of any
Pak'ma'ra in the area. This results in a +2 to any Stealth rolls which the player can convince
the GM are relevant to this trait. (+2)
Strong Stomach Corpses are a prime location for the development of all sorts of vomit-
inducing nastiness and Pak'ma'ra physiology has adapted accordingly. Starting Vigor is d6
instead of d4. (+2)
New St atEvery character has a P-Rating (normally 0), which can be influenced by Edges and
Hindrances. For mundanes, this rarely comes into play. But for Telepaths, it can make all the
difference: Whenever a Telepath has to engage in an opposed Telepathy roll, he or she can
add his P-Rating to the roll.
This makes it easy for a Psi-Cop to scan a mundane even without the latter noticing it. Atrained Telepath has a much better chance of blocking telepathic contact.
Eges & HindrancesAll Hindrances from the Core Rulebook are allowed.
The following Edges are not suitable:
Champion, Gadgeteer, Holy/Unholy Warrior, Soul Drain, Wizard,
The following edges are either re-named or work slighty different:
Arcane Background (Psionics): This also raises the P-Rating of a Character by +1.
Arcane Background (Weird Science): This is renamed to Technomancy.
Mentalist: This Edge is renamed to Telepath. In Babylon 5, this is also a Background Edge
instead of a Professional Edge. It raises the P-Rating of a character by +2.
(Improved) Arcane Resistance: This is re-named to Latent Telepath. While not giving the
characters any powers, it raises your P-Rating by +1 or +2 respectively.
New Edges
Background Edges
Family KaToc
Prerequisite: Narn only, Novice
The character starts with a valued piece of heirloom a katoc, a ceremonial sword. It is
similar in most respects to a katana carried by the samurai of feudal Japan, but with a longer
hilt, wider hand guard, and slightly shorter blade. Narn warriors carry these over their
shoulders. The Ka'tok must be kept in its sheath, for if it is removed, it must shed bloodbefore being sheathed. If it cannot shed the blood of its enemy, it will shed the blood of its
wielder.
Use the statistics for a Katana (see SWRB). Among Narn, a wielder of such a blade gains +2
to his charisma.
Prehensile Tentacles
8/14/2019 Savage Babylon5
8/21
Prerequisite: Centauri (males) only, Novice
Some Centauri males train to grasp small objects with their tentacle-like appendages. Thistakes a great deal of practice to be of any use beyond sexual activity.
On taking this edge, the character can extend two of his tentacles up to 5 feet from his torso.
(If the clothes are loose enough, that is.) The tentacles can be used to pick up small objects
up to a weight of 1 pound. Fine manipulation, like pulling a trigger, is not possible.Should the character gain a reputation for his dexterity, he gains +2 Charisma among female
Centauri as well
Professional Edges
Ranger (Anlashok)
Prerequisite: Investigation d6, Spirit d8, Agility d8, Piloting d6, Stealth d6, Notice d6,Fighting d6
The Rangers are an old organization, founded a thousand years ago by Valen, the great leader
of the Minbari. Only recently were their ranks opened for members of other races. Today,
Minbari and Humans make up the bulk of the rangers, but slowly, the other races join them.Every ranger undergoes a rigorous training on Minbar. Ready to lay down their life for the
cause of watching the ever-growing darkness in the galaxy, they are basically fanatics, but not
foolish. They are well-trained for most tasks and work just as well alone as in teams. Often,
they are employed as couriers or scouts but they are great and disciplined soldiers as well.
Every ranger receives, upon completion of his training, the traditional weapon of the ranger,
the dennbok, also known as the Minbari Fighting Pike. This weapon can be collapsed into a
small cylinder as a free action which can be easily hidden. It can just as quickly be expanded
again it might even knock out an unsuspecting enemy! If used in such a situation, the pike
does 2d6 damage.
In normal melee combat, the pike can be used for two attacks at -2, both rolled at the sametime (two Fighting dice, one wild die). The Frenzy and Improved Frenzy edges change the
modifier to 0 and +2, respectively.
Also, this edge gives the character rangers robes.
SkillsAll of the skills from the SWRB are available in this setting. There are a few additional orchanged ones as well:
Telepathy: replaces Psionics.
Ship Operations (Smarts): When using a ships sensors or trying to fire a ships guns, thisskill comes into play.
Telepat hyAny character with the Arcane Background (Telepath) has a number of powers at his
disposal. This variant of the Arcane Background works just like the example Telepathy
from page 48 (and following) from the SciFi Worldbuilder Toolkit.
A Telepath who rolls a 1 on his skill die, is Shaken.
The Mind Probe from the section works a little different here: Probing that deep into a mindmight damage it, if the attempt is resisted. Whenever the target of a mind probe tries to resist
a probe, this incurs an opposed roll. If he target rolls a 1 on his roll (either Spirit or
8/14/2019 Savage Babylon5
9/21
Telepathy for Telepaths), he takes damage from the probe. For every success and raise that
the winner of the opposed roll scored, the loser takes one wound. No information is gathered
during such an attempt, as the mind is overcome with pain. Probing too deep is therefore
dangerous to the winner of such an opposed roll as well if the mind hes searching is the
only source for the information hes looking for.
Additionally to the powers listed in the descriptions, the following new powers from the SciFi
Worldbuilder Toolkit are available to Telepaths as well:
Anger/Peace, Block, Confuse the Mind, Forget, Mind Rape
Telepat h Edges
Psi Cop
Prerequisite: AB (Psionics), Telepathy d8, Investigation d6, Persuasion d6, Intimidation d6Humans only
The Corps Is Mother, The Corps Is Father this mantra holds for nobody truer than for one of
those dedicated hunters of rogue telepaths. This edge gives an additional +2 bonus to the P-
rating. Plus, it allows a character to draw on the resources of the Psi Corps depending on therank of the character and the nature of the request.
TechnomageryTechnomages first appeared a thousand years ago. Mysterious figures, they are a rare sight
these days, almost passed into the realm of legend and fairy tales. Before playing one of these
scholars, any player has to get the consent of his GM. A technomage can easily force a
campaign into a different direction which may directly interfere with the GMs plan!
Technomages use the Arcane Background (Weird Science) as per the
SWRB.
Through their cybernetic implants and through their suits they are able to
establish a connection with their ships, staffs, places of power or other
compatible technology. This is called Associating and Disassociating.
The following powers (with the mentioned trappings) are available tothem:
Armor: With practice a Technomage can cast a shield around their
bodies to absorb damage or contain atmosphere in hostile environments. This power is
renamed Shield.
Blast: This power is renamed Fireball
Fly: This ability generates an invisible platform that can suspend items above the ground.With further abilities, mages can move and even ride on these platforms. This power is
renamed Platform.
Hologram: Technomages can generate holograms like Alwynn's famous red-eyed, golden
dragon or more complex holodemons, which can actually interact physically with theirenvironment. This power uses the stats of the Elemental Manipulation spell.
Electron Incantation: Through this technique, Technomages can establish real-time
communication with another Technomage regardless of distance. While under the effect of
this ability, the speakers consciousness is manifest within a sort of dreamscape in which time
moves quickly enough for the participants to have whole conversations in the span ofseconds. This power uses the stats of the Speak Language spell.
Invisibility: This power is renamed Cloak

Bolt: This power is renamed Plasma Beam

St arshipsStarships and space combat play an important role in the B5 universe. Following are a numberof starships of the various races. But first, a few notes.
Shipsizes
Every ship on the following list has a size stat, ranking from Tiny to Gargantuan. This has the
following effect:
In combat, very often ships of different sizes will engage. A ship trying to hit a ship of a
different size gains a bonus of +2 or penalty of -2 for each level of difference. The table
below shows the modifiers for a medium ship against the other ships. Note that a tiny
spacecraft would be at +10 to hit a Gargantuan ship. While this is certainly impressive, a tiny
or small fighter will have a hard time to penetrate the armor of one of the massive capitalships.
