New Matriarch Developments

So I drew out some comparative character designs to try give the universe a sense of scale. This also helped flesh out the planets and give them a bit of character themselves.

Phyllekians are tall and lithe due to their lowgrav homeworld, but rely on nanite-enforced armor when fighting on denser worlds to prevent them from breaking their bones.

The Vildrahi are an expansionist race of rat-men who are expert miners and merchants. They are abhorred by the Phyllekian Empire and are in a constant state of warfare with them, but nevertheless maintain the largest portion of space in relative size to Phyllek's domain.

Stakkans are a race conquered by Phyllek and used as peons/servants and often militia when needed. Due to the flat shape of their heads, they are sometimes used as tables or shelves for drinks and food at social gatherings.



A few larger aliens and some scenery.

I'm thinking Khegus would most likely be used as mounts by Phyllekians, but I think they more resemble cows. I'm still thinking of what Phyllekian vehicles would look like.

Waste Runners would most likely dominate the surface of Vildris, as the Vildrahi operate mostly underground.

Rock Wurms would be hunted by Phillekians on Palladia for their silk and venin, an extremely dangerous and difficult feat, and would be considered a right of passage to some.


A simple map I laid out to show the arrangement of the different systems in relation to each other. I'm going to try and do a much larger map of the populated galaxy at some point, but these are just a few of the more prominent systems.

Hopefully I'll be able to draw more of this stuff this week. I have to go and find a job at some point.
