Body design concepts for the Ululats!

◇

I'm still figuring out spider anatomy and how I want to change it to fit the world, but I'm making progress. I'm basing their designs on wolf spiders and tarantulas.

◇

The Ululats are physically the largest of the arthropod cultures, but few in number and highly illusive in the present age.

◇

They are important lorekeepers of the world, and some still believe in the old prophecy (started by Mun Seric) that they are the true inheritors of Acantha. Many have taken more humble and benevolent approaches to this belief, but are still met with suspicion—particularly those who claim to be descendants of Mun Seric himself.

◇

I have been juggling with an idea for an Auroch themed Minotaur. I was going to make them a Barbarian type of character in an adventurer's guild and the reader/you are their handler. Or an adventuring companion.

The Gloaming

The one with like a spring body (their name is Springy Sploongy) is like a slinky, swirly, bouncy creature. So basically the concepts i want for them is the wizard mixes stuff that are sorta similar to eachother i guess? Its not fully develoepd still concept. Like Springy is made of like springs and stretchy stuff besically stuff that i describe as "sploongy" acting. Soo.. Springy Sploongy! And then I have like the sharp triangular face one with electrical acting body something.. Like the way they move is very jagged and fast and stuff.

Ok the wizard is the one that gives them the silly names but the creatures would either have a different name for themselves they identify with or none at all. It is their choice. It is because they have their own lives. Also, they speak similar like the characters in pocoyo where they speak with sound effects cuz I think das funzz.

Also despite their looks their personalities dont mostly align with their appearance and stuff and I dont plan giving any of the critters any gender, they just critters.

How Springy speaks: Splglgug Boink boink Splplpoog (sound effects)

Thank you all for the patience (and for reading in the first place)! I'm excited to introduce a new character this round, and I have so many more people to bring to life in the coming chapters. Hopefully I can get them to you soon.

okay! some Daniel aka skinny fuk of the Endless. He’s very elegant and just down right pretty most of the time. He’s literally a dream come true. I also tried my hand at some Nightmare concepts which was a lot harder than I thought since there are so MANY different kinds of fear.

Natural Fear, Unnatural Fear, Unknown Fear, and Cosmic horror. The first two are easy to explain; The feeling of a hungry tiger in your home, and the feeling of a ghost in your house are different even tho both feelings are fear. Unknown Fear is the feeling you get when you are alone...in the dark...and you know something is there with you, watching, waiting, hunting, but you can’t see it and you don’t know what it is. Cosmic Horror is simple yet not; it’s the fear of being...meaningless that your existence don't mater. That you are but a speck of dust in the universe.  And Daniel would be a master of all of them no matter how different they all are.

His Nightmare form, however, would reflect on how he is feeling, why he is in that form to begin with, and who is viewing him. It’s ever shifting and changing, and no two people would see the same thing. His form would reflect what the viewer fears most.
