Borays

The Borays spot the full moon.

Borays are boar-like sentient creatures that inhabit the planet Sectar.

While the borays originally were an agrarian race, they find that it is easier to take what they wish from the humans at the Serenity settlement during full moons, rather than raising the crops themselves.

Led by Nogow, the Borays return to their farming ways after their leader becomes the constable of Serenity (The Magnificent Warriors).

In addition, the Colonies knew of the Borays, despite the social and economical disconnect between the Colonies and Sectar. It is quite likely they are the origin for the negative saying, "borays of humanity", which is used to describe the denizens of the freighter Gemini to Apollo by a survivor who is ejected from the Rising Star (Saga of a Star World).
