[QUOTE="gamerprinter, post: 7394347, member: 50895"] So each race will live on their own unique planet - kappa (turtle people) on a small swampy moon around a gas giant, oni on a larger hellish planet of many active volcanoes and physics anomalies (named Jigoku after the Japanese hell), etc. Three of the 4 new races we've got ideas for. [B]Same-bito[/B] (shark shapechanger) as you'll notice in illustration above have no fingers, so can't manipulate complex tools relegated to hunter/gatherer sea dweller tech, but once conquered by Kaidan some agree to serve as slave-samurai warrior hulks wearing power armor with fingers so they can use tools and weapons, those who disagree stay as hunter gatherers in their undersea city. [B]Jorogumo[/B] (spider women) race, have ant-like culture, Queen SW with male drones (like mechanic drones, in symbiotic relationship), and a few fertile princesses, with majority of population as sterile females. Robot spider slaves are laborers and builders. Spider Woman race (can't think of name) aren't starfarers, but they think in binary (machine language) so are supremely computer skilled. [B]Oni[/B] (a subspecie as a PC race, with many subspecies that aren't) taller and more heavily, physically built than most humans, perhaps 8 feet tall, though still medium, use a special kind of oni magic being developed just for them. While they are a starfaring race, they more heavily rely on spells and magi-tech than other races of Kaidan. We've only started development on oni. Though the Kaidanese humans dominate rule in their systems and races, the oni are smart brutes with access to more magic and magic-tech than other races and due to their warlike nature have gone to war once in the last century with the Kaidanese, so there is little trust between them, a state of constant animosity. Kaidan is closed like Tokugawa Japan, their drift beacon (what starships use to home in on specific planets) is shut off minimizing encountering other starfaring races. Though they plan to turn it on at some point. [/QUOTE]
