I just had to do a Murf artwork and although it isn't brilliant I had a load of fun doing it!

Mentor & mentee stuff sketch with Raen and Zohar, inspired by my interaction with @whirligig-girl.

Raen is stretching their arm to give Zohar a headpat, which is why it is so long.

Bonus: Q!Zohar has a Mellanoid Slime form that is weirdly similar to Raen... might draw later.

Thank you for including Raen!

having a discussion ab slime gender presentation i will return with my findings soon

A mellanoid Advanced Steam tank engine, for use in shunting, industrial shortlines, and branch lines. This particular class has variants designed for burning coal, oil, or biofuels. Note the large covered fuel bunker atop the saddle tank. Like most Advanced Steam locos, it has compound cylinders to expand the steam twice for more efficient operation.

The above loco is pictured with the same livery used by the Slaibsgloth Coal Mine engines, so this might indeed be one of those. However, here are some alternate liveries for fun.

Slorpholk Northern

Railway Series variant.

I hope we get more episodes surrounding individual characters in season 3. What's Dal's entire backstory? What's Jankom's? Will there be more Mellanoid Slime Worms?

C'mon, Canon, give it to me!

30 Days of Prodigy, day 19: Away Mission

Miral Paris peeked around the side of a storage container as Dal, Rok-Tahk, and Murf boarded the Flyer-A, carrying supplies for the away mission. The ship was nearing the suspected coordinates of the spatial rift that they were looking for and Aunt Kathryn Vice Admiral Janeway had ordered them to go down to the planet and scan for signs of temporal activity. 

Miral was tired of being cooped up on the ship. She wanted some fresh air and adventure! Besides, she thought with an eye roll that would give her mother’s a run for its money, she was certain that if those kids could go on an away mission, she could too. They had never even heard of Starfleet a year ago. Miral was born on a starship. 

While the rest of the team was distracted with trying to fit the large scanning equipment into the cargo section of the Flyer, Miral saw her chance and she tiptoed onto the shuttle and ducked behind one of the auxiliary chairs in the forward section. The others took no notice whatsoever. Ha! Easy! thought Miral proudly. Who says Klingons can’t be stealthy? (In fact, Lieutenant Vorik said that, just the other day when he caught Miral playing hide and seek with Toby the targ in engineering.)

The rest of the crew finally boarded the shuttle and Miral held her breath and squeezed her eyes shut as Murf did the security checks. As long as he didn’t find her before they took off, she’d be home free. The engines roared to life and Miral dared to open her eyes… only to find Murf staring right at her inquisitively. She silently raised a finger to her lips and her eyes pleaded with Murf to keep quiet. The Mellanoid creature cocked his head to the side and made a gesture with his hand as if to say “I’ve got my eyes on you” and then slowly backed away to his seat.

Murf sat at his console and finally faced front, but he kept whipping his head around to make sure that Miral hadn’t moved. Miral had a sneaking suspicion that this was not going to turn out the way she had planned. 

Her suspicions were confirmed when she felt the tingle of a transporter beam and suddenly found herself huddled in the middle of her quarters. 

Her combadge beeped and Rok-Tahk’s cheerful voice filled the room. “Sorry Miral! Maybe next time, if the Admiral says it's ok!”

“Maybe next time I won’t trust that dumb slime worm,” Miral grumbled as she picked herself up off the floor and left her quarters to look for something else to do. Maybe she’d scare Lieutenant Vorik. That would show him who’s stealthy.

The lighting here is fantastic, I was blown away when I saw it on Artfight the other day. I love the way you drew her!

Jesti Quymyn is a mellanoid aquatic astrogator in the United Mellanus Astronaut Corps. (she/they/any). There's not many aquatics in the United Mellanus Space Program, so she's rather a pioneer.

here she is on an aquatic Starfleet ship for some reason.

(minor nitpick: the patch on her chest should look like this. not a big problem, not a starfleet delta shield, especially since the red horseshoe isn't visible on the reference)

If Mellanoid Slime Worms are straight up fully sapient and not like, monkey intelligence like I had been assuming, fucked up of that one guy in tng to use it as an insult in tng

some miscellaneous t’oumii drawings to try and get characterization down ✨

Moopsy is cuter, but it WILL mindlessly and horrifically kill you without even letting you cuddle it first, so what's the point?

Murf is pretty cute, very cuddly, AND will keep you safe!

But only if you're nice to Rok-Tahk. They come as a set, so it's 2 cuties for the price of 1! If you're not nice to Rok, frankly, you deserve whatever you get.

Bonus: if it comes to a fight, Murf the security officer definitely wins. He has no bones to drink because he's indestructible. Murf will straight up eat Moopsy whole, and barf him up later

Alright, let's settle this with democracy...

Feel free to leave propaganda for either of these floppy little guys who could kill you without a second thought

a Mellanoid Slime spacecraft circa 2340s AD, approaching its final landing approach on Oldsky, a satellite of Mellanus' coorbital giant planet Omen. Omen (and Lake and Rival, two of its other moons) are visible in the sky.

Anika and Liz are rolling up to a starbase in a stolen starship, putting on our un-earned cadet uniforms and discussing the new episode of Star Trek: Prodigy and children in Star Trek in general!

The chase is on!

Lieutenant jg Barniss Frex is THE WORST

Starfleet needs to start recruiting career bureaucrats who LIKE being assigned to sit in an office in space and do paperwork. Like … us!

We don’t actually think Dal is a Janeway/Paris salamander baby, but we have a lot of thoughts about how it would be great if he was

It would be terrible if the Diviner has done something to Gwyn to also make her a weapon. Absolutely awful. We wouldn’t enjoy that one little bit. Honest.

Rok-Tahk is safe to learn and make mistakes

If kids go from “Hey, Murf is a Mellanoid slime worm, let’s watch the only episode of Star Trek where those are mentioned,” they’ll watch “Coming of Age”, the episode where Wesley fails to get into the Academy (and that’s okay). Coincidence? Maybe!

Liz wants to be happy about finally getting the J/C hug she’s been waiting for since she was 14, but Robert Beltran’s making it hard

Anika has compiled some stats about children in Star Trek generally, and they are fascinating

Like, TOS had FOUR episodes about kids taking over the ship! Out of nine across the franchise, and that’s not counting Prodigy!

In fact, you can kind of track social attitudes towards children via their presence in Star Trek, which makes it alarming that SNW keeps killing them

Another mellanoid slime worm lady in Starfleet! Hurrah!

Ensign Abubakar and Ensign Arobi are science officers—specializing in radiobiology and evolutionary biology, respectively.

Kadi-Goro Abubakar encouraged a fellow starfleet officer to pursue a career in sciences as opposed to navigation (a path which is expected for many cetacean officers.) Since then, the two have been inseparable as biologists and meditators.
