Oratos

Blah. Just some real rough sketches tonight. The creature featured on the left is a member of the species oratos (ohr-AY-tahss). These guys have mutated a good deal since my original design. They were originally intended to be a sort of elegant, haughty bipedal race. They were supposed to sort of resemble the Kamino cloners from Star Wars, Episode II. However, as I developed the plot, the look just didn't fit, and all my races were sort of becoming a little too similar in appearance, which would have just been boring and confusing. So, I've been retooling appearances, and I decided to push the oratos toward something a little freakier looking. I picture these guys moving/behaving a lot like the Geth creepers from Mass Effect.

The smug looking guy on the right is Wolfgang, one of the protagonists from Nexus, and a loveably arrogant smartass.
