Default Brunnen G Characteristics?

Anyone got any good racial point sugguestions for Lexx's Brunnen G? I am not sure how to factor in the fact that they live forever, but I though Indifferent would be good, as well as having their politics, spying, and hapiness reducded, since they were miserable isolationists. The leader? General Kai! Any suggestions?
Also looking for The Divine Order

Wow, that is a good idea, how do you intend to make the shipset?

They should have some killer fighting skills...

maybe increase in research, since researchers can work on one project forever to perfect it.

Increased environmental tolerance (it's hard for mere bad weather to do moer than inconvenience an immortal) might be a good idea.

Then again, I despise Lexx; waste of broadcast time IMO.

No offense intended, ofc.

I've never seen Lexx, but depending on their worldview, immortals might have much slower population growth. They might deliberately not have many children, to avoid exhausting resources, and because there's no pressure to have your descendants keep your culture going after you're dead.

Were the 'Brunnen G' immortal? I saw the first half dozen or so shows and I thought that Kai was mortal until killed and brought back as an
undead assassin!

The Brunnen G learned how to stop aging. Birthrates plummetted after that point and they took to living on their homeworld, closed off from the rest of the universe by some sort of shield.

Kai was one of the youngest, who led a rather futile assault against His Divine Shadow's fleet in defense of the Brunnen G homeworld (which was destroyed - I did say it was futile). Anyway, he rams the flagship, ends up on the bridge and gets killed by His Divine Shadow and turned into a Divine Assassin, though with his memories erased.

Divine Assassins are a bit hard to kill. Anyway, go rent the first Lexx movie, if you can stomach it and watch.
