Since postings have been slim this week thought I would post something that has always had me wondering.<br />In The Dramune Run adventure we are introduced The Malthar who is described as:<font size="2" face="Verdana"><font size="2" face="Verdana"><p align="LEFT"><em>He is impossibly large for a Dralasite;</em></p><em>
</em><p align="LEFT"><em>the disgusting bulk of his flesh droops in globs over the arms of his chair.</em></p><em>
</em><p align="LEFT"><em>A tall glass of brown liquid rests on the table beside him. He reaches for the glass with fingers</em></p><em>
</em><p align="LEFT"><em>incongruously long and slender, sips from it, and belches like a huge bullfrog.</em></p></font></font><br />Well besides the description being slightly wrong (how do Dralasites sip and why is he a he?) and ignoring the fact The Malthar is an obvious take on Jabba the Hutt (who was released on film the year before), how does a Dralasite get fat?<br /><br />We can assume Humans and Yazirians gain weight the way mammals on Earth do but Dralasites being a almost entirely liquid being should have a different fat storage system. Any guesses on what this would be like? <br /><br />Also pitch in comments on possible health problems and effects on stretching and limb creation.<br /><br />As a side note since Vrusk have an exoskeleton how would being overwieght effect them or if you think it is even possible.
