So I decided I’d share another original species of mine~! So along with the equusans and dragenani we now have these guys, the realanectrum~! They come from a planet I’ve named Illusidon because my inspiration for it was illusions and things on the planet are not what they seem a lot of the times. The realanectrum themselves have gone through so many changes and designs. They don’t have eyes now but I’ve tried eyes on them before and just preferred them without. Again, many thanks to my bubbh @freeindarkness for helping me in my efforts to solidify a design for these guys 🙏 I can’t actually guarantee that they won’t change again but I’m pretty happy with this design so far lol. The realanectrum are essentially almost molerat people and they do in fact love underground on their planet since the surface is so dangerous. Their crests, number of tendrils, and fingers on the neck change depending on their bloodlines. Realanectrum lower on the totem pole will have more developed fingers/hands on their necks for protection against the dirt and dust around them because they are the working class. Realanectrum that have more lucky familial line will have the less developed fingers as you can see in my two characters above. Overall there are not many differences between the males and females besides females having slightly different builds for the purpose of conceiving children. The realanectrum are a very pretentious species and they like to flaunt that they’re better than others even though they’re like giant molerat people-. They are incredibly intelligent though which doesn’t help with their egos. Anyways, I hope you enjoy my bastard rat children 😂👌
