While forging new ways forward in the name of the Pathfinder's Guild, you will inevitably come across a world that can support life! In such cases, the guild advises you to observe only with the sensors available on your vessel. While interaction with a bold newcomer to the intergalactic scene can be an exciting prospect, the consequences of granting a developing species certainty that there are others in Creation to unite against are permanent and far-reaching. In the long-term, it is better for your employment, any species in its development, and our Network as a whole for you to give these worlds and their peoples time to grow up. When they wish to be seen, they will make first contact.
Don't be a firestarter!
An E_M_ BOH_ monk proudly displaying their newly christened shell! Statistically, the pilgrimage to create this personalized mechanical body likely took upwards of [13] epicycles to complete.
Because of some similar struggles face by the shape-changing Chichudo (left) and the fungal Kaji (right), the two can often become fast friends!
Kaa is an extracosmic member of the fourth tier of intelligence, a mind hellbent on achieving the total destruction of all life, and arguably (Abridged for Tier 2) the Second War's first combatant.
The form depicted is a scapegoat, an illusion generated by an augmented mind, typically as a diversion in survival situations. However, the vast Leviathan has developed means to weaponize its scapegoat, converting mere target practice into a fearsome attacker.
Thankfully, all compatible forms for Kaa's emergent mind to inhabit were destroyed by a coordinated immune response, causing the Drone Crisis before the outbreak of the Second War.
Finally thought through the anatomy of Wito females, fierce hunters and skilled seamstresses. Wito are one of few member-species to still practice a religion, partaking in unique rituals and continuing a long tradition of ancestor worship.
Redid bozo #3 to make a bit more sense biologically
Possible third member of the soon-to-be losers club in my campaign. I only know that they'd have a rock motif going on.
D&D character I'm going to pit against my party. Big alien kingpin who struck a deal with a higher intelligence. He'll have done some sort of favor for one of the players, and he will have gathered a gaggle of cartoon villains to help him collect.
D&D character that I'm going to challenge my party with. Hopelessly naive but extremely good at what she does.
A friend of mine wants a take on a race he came up with for a sci-fi D&D game I run. Rough bust.
