"As many civilizations go the stars, they more often than not repent their past ways of living. The Wheepad however, are the exception. Their thrill for the hunt has lead them to seek out challenges where the Tiyanki roam. No animal is too great a challenge for them to hunt. For it is part of their eternal quest to achieve enough points to join their Scorekeeper."
—Jo'Dai Master Borerc Deh'ran, Historian of the Jo'Dai Order
