- Cold Blood: A kulgeri's ectothermy grants the ability to operate in extreme temperatures. They can resist hypothermia and hyperthermia much easier than weak, soft-skinned races. They receive a +8 to Vitality checks dealing with hot or cold temperature. The downside is that kulgeris suffer reduced speed, taking −2 to Dodge, Gymnastics, and Thievery in such temperatures, but stave off that pesky Knockout.
- With Teeth: Kulgeris have sharp, pointy chompers. A bite attack causes 2 Harm, takes 3AP, and uses the Hand-to-hand skill.
- Germ Warfare: Kulgeris harbor extremely virulent bacteria in their mouths and digestive tract. This infers two benefits. First, kulgeris receive +4 to Vitality to resist bacterial infection. Second, in addition to the obvious primary damage from a kulgeri bite, bite wounds left properly untreated will become horribly infected. Victims could face gangrene, amputation, and even death (kulgeris themselves are immune to bacterial infection from a kulgeri bite).
- Tip the Scales: The hide of a kulgeri sports tough scales, granting an innate +2 armor score. This applies whether the character is wearing armor or not.
- Stalker: Kulgeric cold blood allows them to all but halt their metabolism. This grants a +2 to Stealth when hiding or sneaking.
