A green, insectoid alien who resembles a praying mantis, the chattering Lieutenant Arrick is one of the officers of the new Force Nomad. He was assigned to the unit after he defeated another member of his race in ritual combat, then ate him. Though technically murder, this action was normal for those of Arrick's kind, and thus his sentence was commuted to service in Nomad.

-native of the planet Zoramond of the Pan Tel star system in the Auron galaxy
-40 cycles old
-Was assigned to the Legion department of records and information storage, an A-5 security
level posting with Legion Intelligence. Was slated for promotion to section head after
only three cycles in the service
-S'Pitsslp was sentenced to serve out his tour of duty in Force Nomad following an altercation
with a fellow intelligence officer from his home world. The two agreed to settle their
differences with a duel, in the tradition of their hive society. Arrick claimed victory and,
also in the tradition of the hive, ate his opponent. Standard punishment for this offense
would be a death sentence, but the Tribunal agreed with the subject's defense that since
the ingestion of a fallen foe is acceptable to hive Zoramond society, the subject would be
given an alternative punishment.
-Psychometric observations show that the subject has adjusted well to Nomad and to life away
from the hive world in general. Subject displays no hostility toward the Legion for
assigning him to Nomad and performs his duties well.
