Here's a new background and profession I designed for 1 of my episodes.They are both pretty specialized and worked quite well as NPC opposition.

I've borrowed heavily from the LOTR RPG Core Book.Feel free to make up a second tier 3 ability.In my game these guys were really nasty.Giving this profession to sentient carnivorous ornithopes with high AGI and PER,armed with primitive rifles,hidden in 75% cover,and the knowledge(thanks to Orion traders) that the kelbonite that their planet is rich in could be carried to hide them from offworld invader's sensors made for a great ambush.Feel free to tweak it.

I like the background package. The rest is good, though there can't be much use for a primitive hunter in a Trek game, can there? (I might be wrong...)

Actually there was in my game Qerlin.An SCE team was helping the hunter's planet recover from nuclear war(they had bombed themselves allmost back to the Stone Age).There was a coup and the SCE's became hostages of the Hunters.Actually one of my players commented on how he liked my Series non-combat style,so I set up an episode where he was going to get the best ambush of his career .It worked.More combat than he ever expected.These hunters were just an end to a means.Hopefully someone else will be able to use them.
