Quilakhi, probably one of the most controversial transhuman species in Sol. There’s no particular reason to develop a venomous human genome… and their reputation suffers for it.

An airship flies over the featureless, flat equatorial wasteland of the planet Calphis. Two Calphisian moons can be seen on the horizon. Many more airships glimmer on the horizon, far ahead of the airship in the foreground.
A merchant ship falls behind the formation during a crossing of the wind wastes on Calphis. This isn't an ideal situation. The barrens offer no sanctuary for a forced landing. The nearest settlements could be thousands of kilometers away.

What? You don’t obsessively draw things about your post-interstellar, industrial age, surface locked, faux Terran culture?

A funeral in the flats at Tauset
Nalina encounters a umbra raptor at the creek.
A stylized depiction of one of the Kavinara spacecraft in orbit over Calphis. The precarious Galestrom Range is depicted below, some of the tallest mountains in the equatorial region of Calphis. All four moons are labeled in the sky behind the spacecraft, in addition to a few other astronomical features.
Some recent, sketchy pictures from the Calphis timeline.

An erakker of the Bysphere Vipretta conducts a rare live fire test.
A warcraft conducts a live fire demonstration during a close Miranda flyby. This is a political show of force, designed to intimidate the Republic of Miranda.
An ergo drive makes a desperate last stand at the edge of the Milky Way, preparing for a head on pass with her adversary. Two of her companions are already destroyed, their clouds of atoms expanding in the distance. A lone exoplanet bakes with the massive energy being unleashed.
A rogue craft makes a last ditch burn to avoid plunging into Saturn’s rings, putting itself right in the crosshairs of a pursuing spacecraft.

Harpsai. Recognized by bluish pigmentation, colorless hair, mustard tinted eyes and “high ears”
Kees (Kenko Evolved). Recognizable by their pale complexion, pinkish hair colors, opaque eyes and small nerve receptors that extend out of the back of the neck when agitated or stressed.
Eppli Si, a Mel’Valae ecologist. Mel’Valae are easily recognized by their grey-bluish tones and bat-like features (bats, of course, having gone extinct with the loss of Earth).
Hermes, most recognized by bright yellow skin pigmentation, opaque eyes and dark facial spots.

I’ve been putting off making propaganda/recruiting posters for the Galilean Federation, RFW and certain factions of the Kuiper Alliance for *years*
I have thumbnails in my art folder from like 2021. I should really get to those sometime…
