 May 12, 2016 - 3:43pm | Both the Rooksha & the Raith need some fleshing out... I started kicking ideas around on the Rooksha over in the Sathar Project under Sathar Sects. I haaqve also started thinking about who to turn the Raith into the proper alien life form it should be and less of the fantasy creature it appears to be. I did sopme poking the current idea or image of the Raith is based on the Scorpion Folk or Scorpion Men which is pretty much half human/half scorpion and though it would be cool for Flash Gordon not the right feel I think for SF. So I am thinking a re-imagining of them is in order, I have started jotting down ideas. I will try and get some posted latter... The Raith is 8 limbed like a Vrusk, but with only 4 legs, upper arms are for gripping, lower arms have the claws. Multi-eyed including two in the back of it's head not all races need have stingers... some might not. They are flourescent under black light...

May 12, 2016 - 6:46pm | Opinions on the Raith from citizens: “The Raith ancestor’s evolved from an ocean creature similar to the “sea scorpion”. This alien sea scorpion lived and hunted in water with strong currents and developed two large claws, a stinger and in addition forelimbs to help it secure it’s self to rocks in the current. Gradually these primitive creatures began crawling out of the oceans and seas of their world and adapting to land. The climate of their world was changing and with it they adapted, they evolved. As the great seas dried and land masses moved gradually some of these creatures began becoming social hunters working together to hunt down their prey and in time they became sentient hunters of arid and desert regions of their homeworld.” “The Raith are predators of the arid wastelands preying on the citizens of this good world! They are nothing but ravenous monsters of limited animal intelligence! There is absolutely no proof these creatures are sentient. As governor of this planet I will curb this menace to civilization! These creatures are a threat to the development of our world and a danger to our communities. For the safety of our children we must cull the Raith population.” “The Raith are a Sathar bioform seeded amongst the arid worlds to hamper our colonization of our planets and harass our citizens. The Raith are a form of Sathar Terrorism. An insidious alien conspiracy!” “I heard the Raith have eight limbs just like the Vrusk. I don’t believe in coincidence. It’s the bugs, those dam Vrusk are in liege with the Raith. I heard the Raith are secret super Vrusk warriors who are trained to exterminate Humans.” “The Raith are a genetic accident, clearly one of the mega-corporations created these monstrosities and the government know doubt backed this insane plan, why you ask? Perhaps it was a misguided attempt to create a super warrior or perhaps they need to create a False Flag situation to keep the UPF races united out of fear and maintain their power over us! I tell you it’s a conspiracy of the rich and powerful to enslave the colonies!” “Raith? (Chuckling) They are nothing but a spacer boogey man. I can’t believe people believe they exist.” “We need to find a way to become one with this world and live in harmony with all of the ‘verse’s life forms. The Raith are just misunderstood creatures of the wastelands. We need to give peace and harmony a chance.” “The Raith are the Wrathful Hand of the Divine! Lux 10:14 “The Hand shall rise in the wilderness, consume the unclean and the destroy the infidel.” Repent Sinners!” "Never fire a laser at a mirror." |
