The Environmentalist skill is useless to Tolerant races (until they conquer planets with non-Tolerant populations); her Spiritual skill is useless to Unification races; so she's of little use to the popular "[[Master_of_Orion_II/Some_effective_race_designs#Production-oriented_races | Unitol]]" type of production race. | ||

| Ralleia often appears fairly early, but looks expensive for that stage in the game. Her Diplomat ability is useless to Repulsive empires, and her Spiritual ability is useless to Unification empires. But other empires should hire her if they have a populous system with no Leader, as her Spiritual skill will improve every aspect of a colony's performance. The boost she gives to a populous system's tax income will more than pay her salary; and if you don't already have a Famous Leader and don't have many Leaders yet, she'll save you a fortune in hiring fees. (Our judgement is not at all influenced by the fact that she's drop-dead gorgeous). | | Ralleia often appears fairly early, but looks expensive for that stage in the game.

| Starting level: 60<br />Commando +2 (+2 per level)<br />Instructor* +1 (+1 per level)<br />Labor Leader* +15% (+15% per level)<br />Tactics +6 (+6 per level) | |||
| Rash-Iki often appears early enough for his Instructor skill to pay off. His Labor skill will often be most useful to Tolerant Empires, but other empires may use it to move a few workers into research. In a Colony Leader the Tactics and Commando skills are only operational when you're defending a system he governs. | |||

| Tanus' Spiritual skill is useless to Unification empires, and his Farming skill is useless in Lithovore colonies. But the great majority of empires can benefit from at least 3 out of his 4 abilities. | |||
