+ | The concept was that they'd be a species that was " | ||
+ | I really just wanted an excuse for a species that would totally bite and gore a motherfucker if they wanted to | ||
+ | other concept: Their " | ||
+ | I'm having a hard time settling on which facial features mesh best, but the bodies definitely span from like 6' | ||
+ | practically wendigo levels of lankiness. | ||
+ | thinks again | ||
+ | They'd probably use some form of infusion if they went into psionics. | ||
+ | I can't imagine them being a species for much finesse. | ||
+ | ohh | ||
+ | thinks | ||
+ | infusion at the point of striking, more for slashing or piercing strikes rather than bludgeoning. | ||
+ | Other concept: Their mages are all wild mages. | ||
+ | not like, Rod of Wonder level tho | ||
+ | just more randomized outputs | ||
+ | so if one mage were attempting an attack, it could be anywhere from a spitball to a fireball | ||
+ | A very unrefined art. | ||
+ | I imagine intent recognition is a big thing | ||
+ | so if one were to try to enhance somebody, it'll be an enhancement of SOME kind. | ||
+ | other concept: Spell storage becomes very popular for them since spell output is randomized upon cast so it's better to cast ahead of time and store for later. | ||
+ | like potions and oils and scrolls and shit | ||
+ | but maybe better than potions and scrolls | ||
+ | I mean if you want to tempt a species that revels in being bathed in the blood and viscera of their enemies by all means | ||
+ | I think they’d definitely be solely carnivorous for obvious reasons | ||
+ | Due to being an uplifted species I’d assume they probably don’t really have a culture of their own aside from blood sport | ||
+ | Debating whether they came from a bronze age or a stone age | ||
+ | The former means they’d have the propensity for actual blood sport but it means there’d be some vestiges of culture | ||
+ | The latter means they’d be easier to set up but end up being kinda Vorcha-ey | ||
+ | Also in question are the reasons for uplifting. | ||
+ | Disposeable soldiers? Attempted goodwill by way of “look we enlightened the savages”? | ||
+ | Maybe a more morally ambiguous " | ||
+ | I'm now imagining some science conclave throwing a party, getting drunk, and then irresponsibly using their tech to uplift them | ||
+ | courtship rituals involves both parties presenting the hearts of their respective competitive suitors as gifts. | ||
+ | tho they might have two hearts cuz they’re so big and need that blood flow | ||
+ | or perhaps conversely they’re so lanky because their bodies need as little places to send blood as possible | ||
+ | idk vascular systems are not my strong point | ||
+ | welp cancel the species because right now they’re turning out a lot like the Na’vi, visually | ||
+ | >tall | ||
+ | >lanky | ||

+ | really james cameron ripped off captain amelia | ||
+ | thankfully I wasn’t planning on them being blue | ||
+ | so long as their nose/ | ||
+ | maybe thye have 1.5 hearts | ||
+ | like one big wan and a mini wan | ||
+ | Also I was thinking about potential names for that species and I feel like something similar sounding to " | ||
+ | Maybe just call them the Harl | ||
+ | And they don’t necessarily follow a doctrine of darwinist “da strawng lead” but I’m not sure how to derail that but keep their bloody obsession | ||
+ | Maybe they just don't consider gutting someone to not be a viable option in civilized living? | ||
