Kartheans

Postby TheCalicoTabby » Fri Nov 30, 2012 1:05 pm

A possible new species. c: In my original sketches they were more feline and walked on four legs; with this, I've been experimenting with making them more humanoid. I'm thinking they'd be an alien race of some sort.
Do you think anyone would be interested in adopting these guys as characters? Once I finish the lines I'm considering adopting them out.
Also, does anyone have any name ideas? If I get one I really like, I can send over some pets as a prize. Might even give you a character of the species, if you want one. ^^
edit: I'm also looking for a planet name, if anyone has any ideas for that. c:


Edit: The names have been decided. They're kartheans, karth for short, and live on the planet Aradris. Thanks to Casm1 and Bonus for the names!

Thanks for reading!

this looks really good! They look almost lizard-like, showing more resemblance to an iguana than anything. Good job!

these are beautiful! They look like they would be known as something "titan"-like. They seem like an underwater species for some reason. They are awesome though, I would probably adopt c;

Thanks for the comments. ^^
I did make them lizard-like on purpose, but I hadn't thought of them as being aquatic. You're right, though, it does seem to fit. Maybe they live on land, but near an ocean? Two legs doesn't make much sense for something completely aquatic, but they could still be very good swimmers. Maybe they eat mostly fish?

As for names...I do like the 'titan' part. They would be pretty tall, which would also fit that. Hmmm...
I also like aqualacerta; maybe as a scientific name?
I haven't decided yet, but thanks for the ideas. ^^

no prob c; It does make sense though that they shouldn't live completely in water since they have two legs. good luck on this too

I think this is a really interesting species. Especially the aquatic turn you agreed on.
Also, just a note on the second name. I thought this was pretty funny due to the fact that the water's blue color is a reflection of the sky. So their like, sky mirrors.

Names:

Ferox Aqua Bellator (Fierce water warrior)
Caelum Speculis (Sky mirrors)
Imum Cursor ( Canbe translated as Deep runner, or Bottom runner)
Rádala Domhain (World Runner)
Spéir Scáthán (Sky Mirror)

Planet Names:

Beldamore
Reis
Rushirean
Caelum
Balasam
Bestia
Basium


Just a few suggestions for your awesome species. ^_^ I particularly like the first Irish name. It really suits them in my mind.
If you finalize these guys, I'd love to help you out in any way I possibly can.
