Concepts for a friends book series of characters/races I love Sci fi <3 - Drawn in about an hour and a half as a challenge to produce "Presentable" work faster.From left to right:. "Dregs" A Humanoid race that lives on a planet that was once rich in natural resources, over the course of thousands of years the ancestors of this race turned the entire planet into one giant factory, processing and industry planet. This meant the atmosphere of the planet itself became toxic, the remaining wildlife, flora and fauna died off, meaning the Dregs had to reach out to a galactic community to import food, medical supplies and other essentials. This means that the work of factories and industry never stopped and only added to the already toxic setting of the dead world. The knock on effect was that down the line, the race's infants were born mutated, crippled, missing limbs or still born. The Dregs, who covet money and technology above all else used their mastery of industry to produce new bodies.. over the course of another thousand or so years the race continued to degrade, under the harsh living conditions of their death world. Now, no more then hunks of flesh in metal suits, they explore the galaxy in search for a cure for their ruined gene pool.. "Kal Katar" - Another humanoid race, considered to be nothing more than tribals and savages by most of the other races in the galaxy the Kal Katar are a prime example of how appearances can be deceptive. The Kal Katar live in a world not far removed from Terra's era of Feudal Japan, they believe that the planet they live in is sacred and should always be respected and cared for. They live a life of humble occupations, hunters, warriors, carpenters, smiths, so on and so forth, despite having the technological advancement to travel the stars, they refuse to forget their roots. Calling all ranged weapons heresy and relying on swords and the like to forge their way through the galaxy. The KAl Katar have worshipped a sect of Old Gods, which of little is know other than they resemble great cats and this explains the headgear that all Kal Katar are usually associated with. Some Kal Katar leave their home world on a great pilgrimage to search the stars for a greater meaning to life and perhaps the truth behind the Old Gods.. "Draqu" - A humanoid race of lizard-men. Often referred to as "Water Dragons" for their home world which has very little natural land and where these species exist on huge floating cities. the Draqu are a race who's lives are dedicated to military service from birth/hatching. They are one of the most advanced races in the galaxy and are also one of the most war hungry, second only to humans in their seeming need for violence. Human and Draqu relations have been fragile since the races first met and went to war for 8 days, only stopping once it was revealed that both races had simply misunderstood the intentions of the other. Individuals from both Humanity and the Draqu still harbour hate for the other race, this is likely to be something that will never change. The Draque hold a dominant position in the Galaxy as not only having one of the biggest armed force and naval fleets, of also being considered the self appointed enforcers. This of course leads to tension with other races. The Draqu wear headgear that is filled with the highly hydrogenated water of their hold world, unable to breathe without them it is often speculated that: "If you cut the mask off a Draqu, the body will die".Just a little back story I came up with while drawing, none of this is cannon.
