Alexander The Great

Reflex Armour is the most closely guarded secret of the #Kalshodar and their greatest strength. Liquid #mithril is forced through channels between armour plates and joints at pressure. The #ReflexField generated by pylons on the backpack/powerplant infuses the mithril and creates a truly miraculous combination. Reflex Fields work by obeying Newton's Third Law. Any force applied to it is returned with equal force, repelling any attack. Newtons Third Law, Armour Plate, Reflexes, Miraculous, Samurai Gear, Fields

Empyraeum Cycle

A dragon-like creature with four arms, dressed in beautiful, ornate robes of blue, gold, and white. In one of his hands, he loosely holds a double glaive as tall as he is, in another a curious egg-shaped, metallic object, and in yet another, a ripple bladed sword Beneath The Surface, Plinths, Goblin, Expedition, Languages, Mysterious

Beneath The Surface

Almost nothing is known about the Xantoshen except their name and their appearance, both of these discovered in the form statues found far beneath the surface of our moon, Sèlene. Together with those of the even more mysterious Ancients, statues of various Xantoshen were found, first by a pair of adventuring goblins and then by an Empyraen expedition. The name Xantoshen was carved into the plinths of these statues in a variety of Gaian languages, including an archaic form of Glòsta. #Empyraeum

Empyraeum Cycle

A dog-like, jackal-like alien wearing patchwork armour, except for the armour on his odd legs, each having two joints, one backward like a dog's. He has massive bladed gauntlets but shows clear signs of advanced technology Alien Concept, In Pursuit, Bounty Hunter, Canine, Species, Cycling, Superhero

The Kriniajan are a rarely encountered exos species and, considering their species' talents, you won't often find one, they will find you. Almost any member of this canine race that you find away from their home planet of Kriniakast will be a bounty-hunter. Incomparable trackers, highly intelligent, and (dare we say?) dogged in pursuit of their mark, they are very good at it too. #scifi #scifiart #scificonceptart #alienconcept #EmpyraeumCycle

Empyraeum Cycle

Little is known about the Efane species except the odd encounter. We use "odd" because that is how most people describe this race of exos...odd. The more observant among you may see something familiar about this creature's face, you've probably seen one like it before; most people on Gaia have. This species has been closely watching and studying us for most of our history, similarly though more invasively than the Xantoshen. #EmpyraeumCycle #scifiart #scificonceptart #scifialien Gaia, Studying, Creatures, History, People, Historia

The Ghorkai, the only extragaeic, exos, or alien species so far encountered by The #Empyraeum. When the #Kalshodar first set out for the stars, they are said to have joked they the reason was that they were bored, that they had yet to find an opponent to test their new abilities against. On Gaia, the was no such opponent but, out in the eternal blackness, they found the Ghorkai. #EmpyraeumCycle #scifi #scifiworlds #artwork #digitalartist #orcs Alien

Empyraeum Cycle

In #EmpyraeumCycle, #goblins are most often found in the company of Dwarves because both share a love of engineering and invention. On The Moon (or Sèlene) goblins, dwarves, and humans mix quite freely. Humans will often visit goblin bars but are advised not to eat there. Due to the increased racial mixing, goblins and humans have needed to learn to get along. The problem, though, is the Goblin Smile. Their attempts to appear friendly provokes a visceral terror in unprepared humans... Unprepared, Racial, Inventions, Engineering, Moon, Smile, Company

Empyraeum Cycle

Some details from the #EmpyraeumCycle, this time a bit of #weaponry. A #kopis and also a #xiphos, the favoured primary arms of the #Kalshodar and side arm of the #Dracograth. Each weapon indicates a different fighting style. The kopis is a slashing sword, meant for sweeps and cuts. It's good for crowd melee against lightly armoured targets. Modern users consider its use an art, duelling with and wearing down the opponent rather than ending it with a quick stab. It's also useful, some say, for Trendy Tree
