Fun facts about the Dayannats 1. They're incredibly old and not native to the milky way estimates put them at 12 billion year old as a species 2. Their life cycle is more akin to coral or jelly fish than any other organism 3. They don't need to eat or sleep as long as they have access to a sunny patch of dirt they can photosynthesize. 4. They have a genetic memory letting them remember the lives of their ancestors. 5. Their bodily fluids are packed with stem cells and can trigger healing in other creatures.

The synthic collective by joao tranquilin
Because each mind they add to the collective changes the collective the synthics must be careful who and what they add to themselves, so the disguise themselves as members of that species, their allies and especially their enemies to observe how they treat others. These robots make the alliance very nervous, the synthics won't communicate with other species while they're in the observation. So they just sit there in the massive City ship that they have called the mausoleum of dawns and weight for something
The Synthic collective by joao tranquilin the shape shifting robotic grim reapers of type 1 civilizations the synthics believe the loss of a space fairing species is a tragedy so they absorb species on the brink of extinction. #art #officalart #playershandbook #indiegamedev #robots #playablespecies
Finally got to sit down and format the pages for the azzrilians and Plumians #ttrpg #scifiart #playershandbook #playablespecies #indiegamedev
Official players handbook art for the Plumians the cybernetic cousins of the Azzrilians that exist out of spite art by joao tranquilin #art #scifiart #playablespecies #indiegamedev #ttrpgart #cyborgs #officalart #spite #bodydysmorphia #chronicpain
I'm really happy with this it turned out really good this is my first time working joao tranquilin I'm going to have them work on the Plumians next since the 2 species are related. Anre did as well as can be expected given the information I gave them but because I was such a bundle of mental illness and abuse in 2020 I didn't advocate for what I needed properly I've still got 4 pieces from them and I love them dearly both as an artist and a person. But this Azzrilian warlord is aura farming and looks so menacing and threatening. Perfect for the primary antagonist of the game
New official artwork for the Azzrilian players handbook entry. I was hesitant to redo this art but it was necessary. It looks like a fighting game character. art by joao tranquilin #art #officalart #ttrpgart #indiegamedev #commission #scifiart #badguy #playablespecies #playershandbook
Yeah it's mothman an Appono got stranded on earth back in the 60s thanks to the Zoopaw
I spent 2 hours on this but the Appono are so dark it turned black when I exported it to my phone. This is a species from beyond wild space #art #scifiart #ttrpgart #mothman #conceptart #playablespecies
Muya are a fan favorite. literally they're one of the few species in the game with fan lore. Every playtest group has had at least one. They're kinda the unintended mascot of the game. #art #artist #scifiart #ttrpgart #indiegamedev #playablespecies
Due to the Mine field that is "humanoid reptilian aliens" I made sure the reptilian aliens in Antares wouldn't be used as fodder for that my niece picked out the color for the female not that it really matters when the Shini can change color.
Shini actually have 3 separate sexes male female and lambda. It's a bit of a flowchart to figure out but the jist is in places where males are rare due to temperatures Lambdas can step in. Some just prefer it though #ttrpgart #scifiart #reptiles #aliens #playablespecies #art #indiegamedev #lesbians

I should figure out just how fast a Yoa-yoku is in a stoop dive. It's a 1.4m tall 50 kg bird with a 5 meter wingspan. I bet it breaks the sound barrier on a couple planets. #art #artist #scifiart #ttrpgart #beastiary #indiegamedev #playablespecies #scoutrecon #bigbird #supersonic #tabletopgames

I wanted to finish out the playable species art before tictok went away.
Morthians are a space faring organism, they live in a comet cluster called Phinax, communicate with light, can rapidly calcify their tissues, and can "transmute mater" with the enough practice. In short they're Alien. #art #artist #playablespecies #indiegamedev #scifiart #ttrpgart #aliens
The Gauraut are clearly a reseeded species and far to primitive to be spacefaring. Their technology is more advanced than the Jaqini yet their culture is barely out of the hunter gathering stage. Gauraut struggle to peacefully integrate into society. Their rituals and beliefs about hunting other sentient species and blood sacrifices make them a Pariah. Whoever did this to them is wanted by multiple governments for violating interplanetary laws.
The Gauraut are the subject of an illegal experiment. Some hyper advanced species gave them crazy technology elevating them from the bronze age to nanotechnology overnight. Gauraut have gone on to terrorize the Perseus arm and wildspace. #art #artist #playablespecies #indiegamedev #ttrpgcommunity
You'll never see the Synthics in this form they prefer to hide their true nature from everyone. They can transform a few times a day depending on how experienced they are.
The Synthic collective are robotic shapeshifting grim reapers of type one civilizations. rather than let them go extinct they are given a chance to join the collective. This is done in secret over a century so the subjects can't trick the Synthic's #art #artist #playablespecies #scifiart #ttrpgart
Seviac medic, they were once the most powerful empire in the Orion arm in 2275 they are having to evacuate the partially constructed ring world of Mix-Nivi.
Jaqini Nanomancer, after the Triad wars the Jaqini adopted a pacifist lifestyle and because their gene pool was decimated by the war they started cloning themselves to avoid genetic issues.
The Seviac and Jaqini have been allies longer than most species have existed. Since the Jaqini are functionally immortal the often adopted Seviac families and remain in their lives for generations. #art #artist #scifiart #indiegamedev #playablespecies #ttrpgcommunity #ttrpg #ancientaliens #aliens

The Tatmot have 3 "ethnic groups" a plains an Arctic and island variant unfortunately they align with political boundaries so there is some racial tension that most other species in have already worked out.
The Tatmot are one of my favorite playable species in Antares rivals of war. They have a lot in common with 21st century humans and meaning they haven't figured everything out yet. #scifiart #ttrpgart #scifi #indiegamedev #ttrpgcommunity #art #playablespecies
Zoopaw Soldier CR 5.1 unit
Zoopaw Soldiers are much more robust than Raiders. While they can't fly their thicker armor can absorb small arms fire. #scifiart #alien #ttrpgcommunity #indiegamedev #art #playablespecies
Zoopaw raiders
The Zoopaw are a sentient semi Eusocial insect that may be multiple similar species. In the Orion spur most of the Zoopaw hives are Raiders, pirates and foragers acting independently from the Zoopaw leadership 2 of the casts are playable #scifiart #ttrpgcommunity #indiegamedev #art #playablespecies
Ek'eeli Marshall it says her name is "corporal Eenu"
An Eeawaneea Ek'eeli (beluga) Marshall. Ek'eeli more than any other earth Eeawaneea hate their armor and spend as little time as possible in it. #scifiart #ttrpgcommunity #art #playablespecies #indiegamedev #whales #speculativeevolution
The average military cast Azzrilians is 2.4m tall and heavily enhanced
"Breeders" or civilian Azzrilians are 1.9m tall and 55kgs
I don't want to misrepresent this species the military cast are genetically and chemically modified super soldiers. the playable Civilian Azzrilian aren't much bigger than humans. The military cast are Space Marines or Spartan 2 #Ttrpgcommunity #scifiart #art #playablespecies #indiegamedev
White text on purple background, text reads; Title: Orcans of Briskor Orcans are tree loving, hard working naturalists, with a flare for nature based magic. They live in treehouse colonies, managing their natural resources precisely to ensure everyone is housed, fed and has fulfilling work within their capabilities. Their home, The Shivering Woodlands and Frigid Pastures provide plenty of shelter, food and opportunity for adventure. They hold the Ne'Venré of the Pastures in the highest cultural & spiritual regard. A number of Pasture Colonies have their own free roaming herds of these impressive beasts. Over generations the Orcans have built a bond with the Ne'Venré of mutual respect and admiration, allowing them to use them as mounts and harvest/clearing workers. Eventually even allowing trusted Orcans to shear their luxurious fluffy coats.
We need more lumberjack druids.
So I made a whole #playablespecies of them for my Orc-type species 😂
Ne'Venré: think a moose with, just, so much fluffy fur & a more caribou-esque head, with large scoopy horns.

Symbiotic/parasitic entities.
The Glunaré (Gloo-nar-ay)
They live in empathetically & telepathically linked Pods. An individual can sever any of their links if they choose.
Best of all, they're a #playablespecies!
