Decided to try my hand at spriting for a couple of things while i wait for my internet to come back. Featuring these two lovely ectosaurian ladies; Koosh, and her friend/partner in crime/datemate (sometimes) Lobe (courtesy of @nalnpraks )
A player race Generator I thought up to go along with @bogleech ‘s Ectosaurs for his mortasheen project, Co-Created by @titleknown (thanks for helping me out!)
Ectosaurians are a mysterious race of Paraliving beings with the some of the same properties as the ectosaurs of their namesake. Born from a single female individual who arose around the time ectosaurs were first rediscovered as tiny, tadpole-like larvae who live as unnoticeable, invisible and intangible parasites who are forced into adulthood only by a traumatic event to its host. they are capable of intangibility, levitation and all ectosaurians’ slime has a slight sedative effect on the ectosaurs themselves.
