Shug (Death and Diplomacy)

Shug was apparently Jason Kane's pet. However, in actuality he was the Mighty Leader of All Skrak who pretended to be a being of limited intelligence to trick Kane until he could return to Moriel and reunite with the rest of the Shrak. He was killed by one of his malfunctioning automations. (PROSE: Death and Diplomacy)

History
While being teleported from Earth, it was diverted to t'Kao along with Kane. It pretended to be Kane's pet for years, until it could finally be reunited on Moriel with the rest of the Skrak. It was killed by a malfunctioning robot. (PROSE: Death and Diplomacy)

On 24 December 1996, Jason was caught in a transmat beam set up by Shug and was transported to t'Kao in the Dagellan Cluster. He got a lift off of the planet on an ore processor, taking Shug as a pet, and spent several years travelling around the Cluster in a second-hand ship that he acquired. He learnt to speak Basic and carried a small-gauge microflenser.
