Here's a map (now updated!!):

My evil pronoun conventions for the aliens and humans:

**While I like adding a pinch of biology and realism, Wreck Hounds is by no means a hard scifi setting. There's powers and brain worms and a buncha other silly stuff that I want to have in there, so keep that in mind.

There are a few other important intelligences hanging around (particularly of the artificially created and evil space radiation consciousness variety) and some other important stuff in general I still have to introduce pbut I'll have to add them to this post when I get to actually making updated info on them!

But IF you want to look at my deviantart which has ALL of the things I've drawn, including the now horribly outdated stuff going back to when I first started posting to social media, here it is ->

Fun fact/info update maybe canon?: She got the arms from the corporation her parents worked for since it was their fault the accident happened in the first place. It was mostly a half-assed charity stunt (the models they gave out are pretty barebones by their standards, minimal internal workings and detachable) the company only did because so many people were affected by it, including children/teens like Zoe (bad press…).It wasn’t free, of course, especially because they now have to deal the maintenance and are now tied to that company for parts and formula to prevent you from having complications.

They’re still dealing with the medical bills, which now mostly fall onto Devin since their parents are dead. Uh dead parents update lol their situation makes more sense to me that way->Zoe’s life getting fucked up timeline: living on the coast+mom is chronically ill, Devin becomes a Conduit so they have to move to Conduit housing, war escalates and they get evacuated to housing elsewhere, the accident happens+parents die+Zoe becomes a Conduit also, try to move to live with their grandparents since Devin is an adult now to allow mom to move back into normal person housing to get better treatment, get diverted by gov to the SEZ in a hotel for a bit during immigration/emigration crisis because they’re Conduits , get locked in the SEZ after border closure, Devin joins a dredger agency for the reduced price housing+tries to continue college+drops out to work full time, Zoe joins the same agency part time to pay for her own schooling and medical stuff (the arm debt was taken out of their family’s assets upon their death and then written off when that ran out, but there’s still the formula/medicines and fixing any breaks/wear or updating their size) . They’re financially ehhhhhhhhhhh ok since a lot of their parents’ debt was dismissed (at the expense of them not having a house or inheritance or anything, which is why they were trying to move) and they are both working and have help from their grandparents. Idk idk

Kixeli are the most open to living with other species, though you kind of have to play by their rules because in their community, youre always the minority (so you need a role in the community, participate in chores, participate with everyone, etc). Their open/accepting lifestyle seems like a dream to some but you still have big responsibilities related to supporting your group/fitting together with them, not to mention other species besides Cerest don’t spend all their time more or less within arms reach of each other and everyone else has trouble navigating the arboreal-centric design of most communities. It can get overwhelming fast.

Many wealthy rossetians have surrogates to carry their pouchlings for them while they’re at work etc, and even people who can’t afford to have people on payroll for that often transfer childcare to their unmarried siblings or use artificial pouches. Humans are the “easiest” cross species adoption choice for rossetians because they don’t grow super big like kar and don’t need to come in pairs like Cerest or Kixeli.

Riley draws and it’s pretty much his only hobby. He’s very secretive about it and probably would need a metaphorical gun to his head to actually show his drawings to anyone out of the blue.

Lee doesn’t have much interest in art but can copy what she’s seen. She likes writing in cursive because it looks nice.

Zoe also has drawing as a hobby, ocs and everything. She really likes anime stylization but hasn’t landed on a style yet. Her hands aren’t great at controlling small meticulous movements so her drawing and writing would look more choppy if she wasn’t focusing very hard on it and didn’t thicken the lines by going over them.

Rinshi doesn’t like what they look like or thinking about what they look like or being made to depict what they look like. They secretly would like to be able to do art but hasn’t had the time (they also give up and get frustrated very easily, especially since Maro doesn’t encourage it). Crooked fingers/general stiffness and shakiness makes writing and drawing hard. They spelled their English name wrong the first time, and I also added an attempt at their Cerest script name ( not canon yet since I haven’t worked on what Cerest written language) but the general idea is that the characters are both spelling their name and showing their status as a part of the Risen Sun clan under Maro (who they are referring to with the 2 circles on top, masculine).

Devin doodles but has several other hobbies that he’d rather do before that. He mostly just does it when he’s bored or when he’s already doing something (like reading or back when he was in class). He has really small handwriting that gets really hard to read if he writes too fast since he’ll start blending the words together and writing them really close to each other.
