Critters!! Love these detailed reference sheets.

Once I figure out what to write about them

"Teddy Bears With Spears" Done!

Look at all these long bois. I instantly love them.

Oo, they are cool :V

Holy wow.These boys will surely lead the resistance against the Krakun.

Well, they certainly sound like an interesting bunch. Always love seeing species references like this.

With that one footnote, I’m gonna guess there is at least one NSFW ref

I can't quite believe that this should pop up in my feed the day after I finished 'Small World'. Can't wait for the third book in the trilogy now.

Of all the species you've laid out in these reference sheets, the Sourang have got to be the most impressive. Their penetrating self-awareness and ability to transform other species are fascinating and, so far as I'm aware, unique traits. There is great storytelling potential here. It's also high time we met a species that the Krakun could not completely dominate.

Two thumbs, huh? That's gotta be a lot of fun. And - whoa - adolescent at 35,000 years? Did I read that right?

That's not kiloyears, that Krakuntec Years which are the imperial standard

Ah, gotcha. Thanks.

Seeing all this text on your species sheets always seems daunting to me but they're never a bad read. I actually look forward to seeing these in submissions! The amount of written detail you put into them--particularly the ethos--kinda just floors me.

This is one interesting, creepy, and bad arse species!

Love the fact that some can turn other species into lesser Sourang! And part of me wishes I came up with something that awesome for my species/creatures. Oh well! Can't have all the awesome ideas. ^^

Well, this is by far one of the most interesting original species i have seem. Great work!

Well it gives away some spoilers if you haven´t read Small World but hey looks cool

I don't think of it as spoilers, I think of it as shifting a surprise into dramatic irony

True true

So they got almost 4m tall, highly adaptive and extremely proud rats all over their space? Yeah, proper pests for the dragons

I'm pleased that I guessed the male and female right from your preview image on twitter!

So... unless I'm mistaken, they see it as sacred duty to relieve other races of all jewelry?

I really like seeing art of the species from the books! Now I have to reread them so I can picture the characters even better. :D

Hrmm. The race FEELS highly engineered, whether in their deep past or by a no longer present secondary species. More importantly, such hyper-adaptative capability makes me think that whether it was them or someone else, it used some serious S2+ (second singularity or greater) technology (Second toposophic transsapient). Interesting worldview, also makes me wonder whether they know of this background (if I'm accurate in my guesses).

"minimum of clothing"

I'm... not even gonna bother reading this one now. -.-;;

Such an interesting species.

cool work!!

Oh these are cool!!

Ooohh, these guys are cute~! <3
