Garrulians are known for their dull senses and their unique way of socializing and conflict resolution (headbashing).
Humans see them as terrifyingly competitive, slow-witted brutes.
This garrulian has gotten into a prestigious university via sports recruitment. They won't let the opportunity go to waste, though. The finals are coming and they're studying hard to become a criminologist, even if they're not the sharpest tool in the shed.
Love Valentin! What's the weirdest crime he' commited / been arrested for?
THANK YOU I'm glad you enjoy the gremlin >:]
I don't have a SPECIFIC answer for you because the fun of Valentin for me is, his chaotic stupidity has so many possibilities for wack ass situations he could be in, so really, just think about the wildest shit you can and he's probably done it haha.
The times he's been arrested is because he's picking fights with cops and/or the cops were able to catch him THAT time. Otherwise I don't think he's doing too many crimes that are unexpected for a mercenary, in a cyberpunk dystopia (that being said, in our TTRPG we did have to rescue another players dog who was stolen for underground dog fights and that's probably about as "unusual" as it's gotten so far in our game).
I DO think he gets himself into weird situations that possibly lead to arrest due to a series of unfortunate events or just being somewhere he doesn't belong, not even TRYING to do crimes but if someone calls the cops on him... or if there's just cops nearby... he's going to fight those cops or find a way to cause a scene.
Something that absolutely makes ME laugh to think about is, he gets into a situation where he has to go to county or small claims court under threat of fines/arrest for something low stakes, like smoking in a no smoking zone. He wouldn't know how to navigate that, probably doesn't even know he has to show up in court until the law shows up to do something about it.
Ramolinians are the only true radially simetric members of the Milky Federation. They are an advanced civilization, but their body plan makes it hard for them to fit in.
Humans have a hard time "humanizing" them and see them as big and bothersome weirdos.
In a bus stop, a big ramolinian tries to sit in a bench designed for humans. Despite his size, he is being way more considerate than some random guy manspreading and smoking.
Solarpunk is an awesome genre with amazing ideas and even better aesthetics, but I have a problem with the latter.
Have you ever seen a farm? Or a city? Do you really think once we systematize renewable energy everything's gonna look white, neat and immaculate? Please!
(I get it's supposed to be idyllic, bear with me)
That's why in my universe I will have my own take on it. A solarpunk that is as dirty, smelly and as crappy as it should be.
No more pure white buildings, this city smells like cat piss AND is environmentally friendly.
No more perfect looking vegetables in immaculate greenhouse gardens. Veggies are grown on gardens made of wood, scrap metal and cloth, they look like crap and they taste like heaven.
Gotelenians are a semiaquatic people whose main way of recognizing each other is by chemical signals exclusive to the warty fauna of their planet. Thus, their facial recognition skills are between lacklustre, and null.
Humans see them as dumb, swamp-dwelling hicks unable to socialize with other species.
This gotelenian is ranting to his human friend. Except that's not his friend, that's a random, very confused, stranger he's mistaken for his colleague. That being said, the monologue is pretty intelligent and on point.
Welcome to my 2026 monthly challenge! Aliens are Space People #1:
Eloquians are the co-founders of the Milky Federation and one of the most populous species in the union. Compared to humans, they are naturally more logical and "cold".
Humans see them as boring bureaucrats with airs of superiority.
Here we have an eloquian civil servant, enjoying some drunken karaoke after work with her human best friend.
Elisquians are a Milky Federation member species known for being pioneers in the field of biotechnology. They're the creators of blasphemies such as the mopa or the furbo.
Humans see them as amoral mad scientists eager to play god and spit in the eye of common sense.
Here we have an elisquian who has studied biotech, but instead of creating abominations he moved to the earthian sector to work as a vet, so he can try to help the already created abominations. Like these Earth-bred P-rexes.
I had so much fun drawing the P-rexes in this post, I had to design more cursed dogs. I'm sorry.
Dogs of the future!
Thanks to the help of humans, and a lot of incest, Man's Best Friend has gone from "wolf" to "cursed creature in pain" (with friends like these, who needs enemies). And in a future with biotech and genetic modifications, dogs are even more wacky!
Adopt one of these poor mistakes of civilization today!
Pug-Rex: If pugs didn't have enough problems, now their front paws are vestigial.
Dog Sausage: Vestigial limbs are a blessing if, like this dog, you have to settle for a long body without back legs.
Chihuihui: Chihuihui.
Martian Shepherd: A minitank bred for war with a sense of loyalty so strong it borders on nationalism. Only violent if the owner is, at the end of the day they just want to love and be loved.
Curtain Dog: This one is pretty healthy overall, its hair grows at an alarming rate, though, and in alternating colours. Careful, what you save in vet visits you spend on dog hairdressers.
Shar Pell*: Legend tells there's a dog under all those skin folds.
Dalmatiraffe: Every type of thin, long dog bred together to create a clumsy giraffe imitation.
Again. I'm sorry. I just like to make wacky designs and social satire.
*"Pell" is "Skin" in catalan. Too perfect of a pun to translate.
