Rak'gol

The Rak'gol are a race of space fairing pirate/psychopathic-murder-lizard/insect/cyborg...things. These guys are literally what happens when the Dark Eldar has all their kinkiness and faggotry replaced by badassary and awesomeness with a slight hint of Rip and Tear! But Games Workshop being Games Workshop, for some reason, didn't seem to create a Codex for these guys, the majority of /tg/ was slightly disappointed by this outcome however, and pray that they would one day receive some added fluff and crunch on this Pirate-Cyborg Lizard Insects.

The Rak'gol from what we have learned, are a species of aliens that like to scavenge and loot other things from other aliens, often their would-be hostages are either killed, tortured then horribly killed, or are sent to areas best not talked about...they are the only race whose origins has not been that much explored by, due to their first contact in the out-most reaches of the Koronus Expense and that trying to negotiate and talk to them often ends with the interrogator being ripped apart and shat upon, because of this the Imperium have trouble difficulty trying to know what the hell these guys are up to. The only time the Imperium actually get a specimen to study is a dead specimen, and the results are often at best, messy...Being described as reptilian with a hint of Insectoid features, they are infamous for their apparent hard-on for cybernetic surgery turning their already deadly natural designs into even more fiercesome individuals.

A face only a mother would love.

Fortunately for the Imperium (Or so they say...) the Rak'gol is easily identified by their apparent ram-shackled designs of their starships as well as being the only race whose technology is worse then the Orks. Humorously despite having shitty tech such as piss-poor Stubbers which are already in piss-poor condition and ray-guns which are literally Nuclear power-plants with a mirror-scope like a Laser, they still manage to be a threat to Imperial ships, which is saying a lot for Imperium general tech-incompetence and tech-degration; and where the Imperium should stand in turns of durability. Furthermore the Rak'gol are the only race where the Imperium has classified them as dumber then the Orks, this is mainly because of their apparent lack of any social skills, and instead replaced them with rasping roars and gibberish, how the hell they manage to even build a gun let alone a god damn star ship is beyond anybodies idea (But then again, Blood Ravens...). They are also known to be pants-on-head hideous, even for the Chaos Gods and the Nids. So congratulations to the Imperium, you have met what counts as the mentally retarded and more socially awkward version of the Ork Freebooterz.

However if Games Workshop really decided to create a Codex for them, I decided in order to balance the crunch, they should be a race that hits hard and cause Fear, they should also all come with a unique attribute that makes them evade one or two hits per turn as well as being immensely powerful in close-range, but is balanced for being slow and awkward to use. with their main weakness of being low in squad numbers (Not in population) and having weak psykers, but those are for another time...

Technology

The technology of the Rak'gol is known to be so ramshackled, primitive and poor in quality that it makes the ingenious designs of the Orks, look reasonable in comparison. Their ships are known to be one of the few aliens that are using Nuclear Fission reactors just to travel in space, compared to the Imperium which use Plasma Fusion Engines to travel, yeah they are that primitive. Actually, no scratch that, their Nuclear Fussion reactors are so primitive that it borderlines dangerous, their most common occurrence is the massive amount of radiation leakage that would kill a normal human, this has lead the Imperium scratching their heads on how tough these guys are. And being the lazy dumbfucks they are, they often steal and use other Alien technology such as the Imperium, heck they steal so much they give the Blood Ravens much needed envy, hell on one case it got so bad that even the Xenologists mistaken the Rak'gol for another Alien race, due to the amount of hoarding they steal. Furthermore their ships look like a piece of wood that has been violated and molested by a wood chopper, completely hideous that not even the god damn Orks could match!

The only original thing these guys have and their only famous trait is their apparent boner for Cybernetics, usually after every raid, kill or rape, your typical Rak'gol young blood is gifted the wonders of cybernetics to not only improve their bodies but as a sign of status, this would later become ironic and funny once you realize that those who study their tech and "ritual" are usually Imperial Tech-Priest and Xenologists themselves. Such cybernetics usually include your typical cliche bionic implants such as the feet or hand for example, but those of a higher status however are gifted the shmancy rad-weapons or even power-claws. What should be noted however, is that despite their primitive outlook, their technology is meant to get shit done, not too look or fancy and nancy like those Elfdar and Weeaboo pansies.

Weapons

It should be noted that most of the time, Rak'gol weapons are stolen Imperium Stubbers and Autoguns, however here are a few lists of weapons considered as original by Ral'gol standards, even though they look like they can only fire five bullets before using them as make-shift clubs (Which they are meant to).

Rak'gol Razor Gun: Think of these as an Orkified version of a Eldar Needle gun, they are usually regular, plain old Autoguns that fire barb-wire in a bullet shape, and are usually seen to rip and tear apart Guardsmen like wet-tissue paper thrown into a wood chipper.

Howler Rifle: Imagine these guns as triple-barreled machine guns that has been built by the Haitians from Haiti...expect carnage, pain and the collateral damage of "Woopsies, it seems my gun kind of broke apart and hit Jimmy on the eye!". Are noted to vomit out so much bullets that the gouts of flame from the end of the barrels could be re-purposed as a flamethrower.

Rad-beam Cannon: They are essentially Masers that shoots out beams of Nuclear energy that somehow can "voraciously breaks down armour and materials" like a friggin Tyranid...hmm, must be those Warp-induced radiation I heard existed.
