I was doing a mission for a Boron and I'm pretty sure he said
"hurry up, my testicles are drying out" or something like that.
That made me chuckle... I don't usually do many missions for the Boron so I've only heard that once :/.
What did that Boron say?

WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING!!1!!!!1111!1Eleven!
Save the Boron!
They don't even have a charity! I looked! No ribbon, no kettle with a guy ringing a bell, nothing. The UN claims that there are no Boron! (The guy on the phone was a real jerk, too.) They won't even acknowledge an NGO claim!
Poor Boron. No bones. All flippity-floppy.. And, no testicles either. How much worse can it get? Oh God, don't tell me they don't even have Baywatch re-runs!
It's time to act! Save The Boron! Donate to the new "You have an extra femur, don't you?" campaign!

arnt all boron in space females? so no, the ones you meet dont have testicels then
also reminds me of a joke
Once there was a blonde who really needed some money. She saw an ad in the newspaper for a job at an Elmo factory. She went down and applied, but the manager told her that she wouldn't want the job because it was so boring. The blonde begged him and told him she would do anything because she needed the money really bad. After long consideration the manager hired her.
After a few hours the manager looked at the video-monitor showing the factory floor and saw that the conveyer belt was backed up. The manager went downstairs to find out what the problem was. When he arived there the blonde was sewing two marbles into the crotch of every Elmo, at which point the manager burst out laughing and said "I think you misheard me when I said to give every doll two test tickles"

That's Teladi, the Boron have three genders, male, female and lar, but are apparently indistinguishable to humans.Mudkest wrote:arnt all boron in space females? so no, the ones you meet dont have testicels then

Split are male. Remember, a patriarchal society.
The Teladi in Seizewell area were obviously spacefarers, and did found out that they were not able to lay male eggs. All they got were females, so over generations all Teladi in the area were female. In communication with the other races they usually ended up referring themselves as "he". Everybody assumed them to be male anyway.
As aftermath of the Xenon Conflict soon after Brennan's arrival the Gate Network changed again, reconnecting the Teladi to their homeworld. Therefore, by the Terran Conflict era there could be spacefaring male Teladi, but not likely since the females have had the business successfully running for so long.
At one point in history the Gate Network was rearranged by the Ancients so that a block of Teladi sectors were cut off from their home sector, Ianamus Zura. The cut off block contained Seizewell and retained links to Boron and Split sectors. Captain Kyle Brennan from Earth did missjump to that area in X Beyond the Frontier.edwardecl wrote:And those Teladi are female?!? I just assumed they were all male. This game confuses me :/.

All of the credit-hungry trading Teladi are female, the males are poets and musicians and largely stay planetside, most being on the homeworld, Ianamus Zura.edwardecl wrote:And those Teladi are female?!? I just assumed they were all male. This game confuses me :/.

Well I learn something new everyday...
What about the split, why do they wear those cage helmet things? are some of them "special" and need protection against hard surfaces?
Oh and what about the pirates, how comes most of them have eye patches? is it really that common to lose an eye in space? do they also have peg legs that we can't see?

As you've probably noticed pirate ships aren't the height of engineering and of course all of the piratical health and safety officers are off testing the best way to avoid spilling rum (the most promising result so far is ensuring that all tankards are emptied as soon as possible).edwardecl wrote:Oh and what about the pirates, how comes most of them have eye patches? is it really that common to lose an eye in space? do they also have peg legs that we can't see?
