Just some quick concept redesigns for a few stalien historical figures
#oc posting#eternal gales#and now to use this oppertunity to infodump abt worldbuilding lets gooo#so! Ive talked a bit abt beetle and bugs before but I doubt many of yall have read that so Ill re summarise#the two of them are twins and are basically traveling doctors. theyve done a LOT of medical research and did a lot of work to try to help#improve pretty much all services related to health care since this specific stalien culture is lacking in the public healthcare department#oh just fyi there are like plenty of stalien civilisations and such but pretty much all of them are very seperated from the one all the#main characters live in so just generally assume when Im talking abt their society Im talking abt this specific one#anyways beetle and bugs have their own side prequel sort of story thats mostly just abt them traveling around and doing medical research#also important to note that while theyre identical twins bugs is MUCH taller than beetle#this is because they both spent a lot of their young childhood not having access to food and their bodies fought starvation differently#with beetle its easy to explain and understand yknow typical body doesnt use as much energy so they dont grow as much#but bugs is a bit more complicated and also smth I should explain at some point since it applies to helmet too#but I dont wanna leave myself with no room to talk abt my bestie glory so moving on#glory is basically my excuse to explore stalien social norms and what rebellion meant throughout history#like for example glory has her mane grown out which is typically a trait accosiated with being dirty and lazy#and also that paired with the primary pronoun she uses is also an act of rebellion but that one would take way longer to explain fully#but uh long story short stalien pronouns arent gendered and in the past they were mostly used to represent your status and relationship#with someone. glory is using the primary pronouns thats used by like respected higher ups and bosses and stuff.#shes basically demanding respect and such#theres 4 main sets of pronouns that see common use but they have plenty of lil variations depending on your relationships or status#that being said by the time eternal gales takes place the status meanings of them is far less prelevant outside of like elder circles#if sprinkes talked to an older elder shed probably get excecuted or smth for using one of the highes status signifying ones for herself#that being said theres still like some of that accosiation left over its just not like a strict rule anymore#sprinkles sort of just stuck with what most people called her as a kid and since shes a rich kid most sorta defaulted to that#busy chose a similar set for herself since she likes being seen as mature and professional like someone worth respecting#shed get like double murdered by an old person but that wouldnt be the only reason#dancer used to use similar but nowadays he uses more casual ones for himself#its generally considered a weird set to have as your main though since its usually mainly used in rly close friendships#keese draws
