I'll leave the Mastakos reference for know, not having a

planet' implies 'Loper people have no connection to the Veldang'.
After all, the Loper People are blue. It seems pretty logical that
they might decend from one of the other blue races, and the Veldang seem
the most likely candidate. I certainly think having the Loper people linked
with the Veldang of Pamaltela (land of whacky wildlife) seems more
plausible than to link them with the Vadeli, Waertagi, or Pelorian Blues
(and please, not another indepedendent blue race). I linked the Loper
people with the Veldang only slightly because of the Blue moon connection,
more the blue colour.
