In the Dungeons and Dragons fantasy roleplaying game, the destrachan is an aberration.
Physical description
A destrachan looks like a bizarre, nonintelligent beast, but is actually highly intelligent and incredibly evil. It resembles a sort of cross between some type of biped, herbivorous dinosaur, and a hound-like creature (one may even describe it as kangaroo-like). It has a pair of complex, three-part ears that it can adjust to be more or less sensitive to certain sounds. Though blind, it can navigate with its hearing better than most creatures can with their sight. It has a round, tubular mouth and is brown in coloration. It is about 10 feet long, and weighs 4,000 pounds.
Combat
The destrachan utilizes harmonics to attack. From its tubular mouth, it emits deadly amplified soundwaves which shatter what they touch. So skilled is the destrachan at attacking in this method that it can choose which type of matter the soundwaves will affect. When fighting opponents, it typically first uses armor-disrupting harmonics and then switches to flesh-damaging ones. Although it has claws, it only uses these as a last resort, such as finishing off a dying opponent that has already been weakened by harmonics.
Society
Destrachans live underground. They cannot speak, but understand Common. If a destrachan must communicate, it does so via action.
Destrachans are usually in alignment.

The Andorian Empire was a fictional Andorian nation in the Star Trek television franchise, prior to the founding of the Federation, of which they became a member.
History
Shortly after being founded, the Andorian Empire began to colonize various worlds. In the course of these colonization efforts, they discovered the Vulcans, with whom they repeatedly fought for the next century. This fighting led to the Vulcans' annexation of the Andorian planet Weytahn. By the 2100s, the Vulcans and Andorians had entered into a sort of cold war.
In 2161, the Andorians and Vulcans put their differences aside and formed the United Federation of Planets along with the Humans and several other Star Trek races. This ended the Andorian Empire's existence, which had lasted for an estimated 250 years.
