Chicken Bocks
Four-eyed alien chickens that run around screaming “BAW!” Loud, fast, impossible to catch and, for some reason, sacred.
ConfirmedChicken Bocks are found on more worlds than anyone can explain. They have four eyes, long springy legs and exactly one opinion about everything: “BAW!”
They panic at loud noises, quiet noises and the general concept of noise. A flock of Bocks can strip a picnic, flatten a tent and vanish over the horizon in under a minute.
01
Loud. Fast. Everywhere.
Chicken Bocks have four eyes, teal and orange feathers and legs built for running in exactly the wrong direction. When one panics, they all panic. When they all panic, everyone nearby panics too.
BAW!
02
Strangely sacred
Ancient temples across the galaxy demand odd offerings before their doors will open, and a Chicken Bock is near the top of almost every list. Nobody knows why. Most priests are too embarrassed to ask.
03
The famous shopping list
One temple asked for three things: a Chicken Bock, a bowl of flaming hot guac and a robot. Getting all three into the same room without screaming, burning or arguing became one of the crew's most ridiculous quests.
Homeworld
Wild flocks run the Heavy Meadows of Velgora, where high gravity keeps them (mostly) on the ground.
