Farscape: Renegades

[farscape-renegades]

Here is Rovik! A young male leviathan, adventurous, impulsive, excitable, and full of heart and personality. The finning down his back acts like a crest, usually held flat against his body when neutral, flaring up under strong emotion or when trying to show off.

Another character will be joining the crew, an old character I haven't used in so long and realized he fits in beautifully! Meet Nalphandrekk, once known as the Scourge. He was once a vicious villain who terrorized the galaxy, but he's since mellowed out. A friend touched his heart, and after the death of that friend, he vows to never fall to hatred again. He and Daemos's goals align; they both hate the Syndicate and want to take them down and free the galaxy from their grip. His craft, heavily armored and loaded with high tech weapons, will come very much in handy in defending Rovik and the crew.

The next chapter of Renegades is in!

I am replacing Vherra with a different character of mine, a warbred named Valka, a paranoid ex-commander. Vherra has an entire novel's worth of story behind him, but Valka could bring a fun dynamic to the crew. There's very few serious characters in the crew, so a serious, paranoid ex-commander could work very well with a vigilante. Especially since Vherra is against killing.

Here are the characters introduced so far! First is the Pilot, Korvus! Second is Daemos. Valka's ref is being updated since the art is very old and has inaccurate Warbred anatomy. Daemos and Valka may get a new version for this Farscape spinoff because they are both from other stories of mine.

Farscape: Renegades - A farscape spinoff

Under Construction! This is a little blog for my spinoff series of stories/illustrations in the Farscape universe! This will follow the adventures of a young leviathan named Rovik and his Pilot, who named himself Korvus, as they team up with a crew of renegades who are intent on taking down a galaxy-wide syndicate. There will be drama, absurdity, humor, and intensity through and through. It will feature AU versions of other characters of mine, spruced up for a wild and crazy scifi setting exploring all sorts of things based on the universe of the show Farscape!

The Cast Korvus (Pilot - Species: Pilot):

Young, rebellious, witty, and sarcastic, Korvus clings to his individuality, insisting on being called by his chosen name rather than just "Pilot." Despite his snarky exterior, he has a kind heart and unwavering loyalty to his crew. Bonded with Rovik under unusual and rebellious circumstances, Korvus struggles with the sacrifices of his bond but remains determined and strong.

Rovik (Starship - Species: Leviathan):

Adventurous, impulsive, and mischievous, Rovik has a playful personality that often gets him and the crew into trouble. Though bonded with Korvus, Rovik harbors guilt over the sacrifices Korvus made to be with him. Despite constant bickering, he and Korvus share a deep love and respect for each other. Moya’s son, her second-born. Born several cycles after Talyn’s death.

Daemos (Captain - Species: Lepidian):

A morally grey and dangerous vampire moth who escaped a horrific past as a slave in a brothel. After gaining vampiric powers through a pact with a dark entity, Daemos now seeks vengeance against the Syndicate that enslaved him. Pragmatic and ruthless, he recognizes the value in his crew’s talents and genuinely appreciates loyalty, though he hides it behind a gruff demeanor.

Valka (Hired Muscle - Species: Warbred):

A paranoid ex-commander who was aimless in life after deserting the Shadowed Emperor's army after making a terrible discovery. Broken by the Shadowed Emperor's prison, the once outgoing and confident commander is now a quiet and paranoid individual who is slow to trust. He had nowhere to go, so accepted Daemos's offer to hire him for his strength.

Aeshma (Healer - Species: Unknown/Goddess):

Once a powerful goddess who caused great destruction due to manipulation and pride, Aeshma was sealed away for thousands of years. Awakened into a galaxy far advanced from the world she knew, she has nowhere to go and joins Rovik’s crew. Though she disagrees with Daemos's methods, she stays to atone for her past and to keep Korvus from being corrupted.

Arzhel (Scientist - Species: Kivuuli - Subspecies: Maltese):

A mad scientist obsessed with blending technology and magic, Arzhel is resourceful, brilliant, and utterly insane in a harmless way. His teleportation experiments caused him and Katira to appear aboard Rovik. Thrilled by the adventure, he decided to stay, finding the chaotic environment perfect for his experiments.

Katira (Mechanic - Species: Reshviik , Morphic):

A playful and spunky amphibious Morphic who has the rare ability to shapeshift using DNA from other creatures. The daughter of Arzhel’s friend, Katira often assists him in his experiments and shares his love of adventure. She joined Rovik’s crew after the teleportation mishap and stayed for the thrill of galactic exploration.

Nalphandrekk (Defender - Species: Drassul):

Once a dreadful villain known as the Scourge, his heart was touched by a friend he has since lost. He is determined to never let hatred and darkness overshadow his heart again. His goals align with those of Daemos, so he came aboard Rovik to help defend the leviathan and his crew, as well as help Daemos, the leader of his slave-liberating network, to achieve his goals. Nalpha can be rather mischievous and loves to have fun and goof off, but he is a fierce fighter and incredibly loyal. He always knows when to be serious. He keeps the ship he inherited from his father in Rovik's docking bay, using its weaponry to defend the leviathan whenever needed.
