"That seems quite impressive. The only thing is that a Crotation warrior would shoot the plane out of the sky before it hit them, are maybe cut through it with there sword."

"Well, most brawlers use nothing but their fists... It's hard to fit stuff inside armor that's meant to be both extremely strong and increase the wearer's speed, agility and strength."
-
"So, they were performance enhancing armor?"
-
"Yeah. When I left we were working on prototype attachable weapons and such."
-
"Ah, that is cool. Our soldiers take performance enhancing supplements and sometimes get them added on or into their bodies. This makes the armor smaller and tougher."
-
"Performance enhancing? God no... Drugs are outlawed on Sphirinia. We recognized the great dangers of having any type of drug and instead use technology. There is a single device that can heal almost any wound, fix physical birth defects, flush a someone's body of all toxins and cure any disease as well as kill any bad bacteria all at once."
-
"It doesn't have any negative side effects unless used improperly. Also, we also use these metal things that go inside your body and make you stronger and stuff. They are a bit more expensive, but they are much more powerful."
-
"Well, the brawler I know is already freakishly strong... I mean, she could pick me up and throw me about thirty feet without even wearing her exo-suit."
-
"Hmm, how much do you weigh?"
-
"A hundred pounds? Maybe ninety? I'm only five feet tall after all."
-
"Then one could easily through you about eighty feet. Maybe not from the lesser battalions, but definitely from my battalion. Out biggest enemies are 3,000 pounds of pure death, and we still manage to beat them in almost every battle."
-
"Hmm... Interesting..."
-
"Yes. By the way, do you happen to know where a village named Extros is?"
-
"No, I'm afraid I don't, sorry."
-
"Darn it, I have to find it."
-
"Well, sorry I couldn't help you. I will ask, what do you look like under your helmet? Sphirinian or not, I know very few other people who actually have a tail and a snout."
-
"Imagine a very muscular bipedal crocodile and you should have a good idea of what I look like."
-
"Well, I've met bipedal crocodiles... They're kinda scrawny actually."
-
"Not an actual crocodile, one that is a bit more human looking. Also, I am not at all scrawny. By the way, where did you meet a bipedal crocodile?"
-
"My home planet, Sphirinia. It's in another dimension. Almost all mammals and reptiles are bipedal."
-
"That sounds interesting, and perhaps a bit chaotic."
-
"Not really. Despite consisting of many, many different species, we all consider ourselves as a single race."
-
"Huh, that sounds quite peaceful. Why do you have brawlers then?"
-
"Well, we were sort of the police force of the Galaxy. And not like in the movies where they are portrayed as the bad guys, the pangalactic government actually appointed our race to act as police. It's mostly due to the fact that our religion has a strict moral code and since we are all very different from each other we can be used for all kinds of situations."
-
"Wait, who appointed you as the police of the Galaxy?"
-
"The pangalactic government..."
