The way I have HZD tribes handled in this AU is not perfectly 1:1 with Mass Effect races. Tribes have notable racial majorities, but individuals of a given race can show up anywhere (especially humans, for whom this is pretty much a defining feature). The exception is krogan due to how insular the Nora are. Therefore, I don’t have the Banuk as majority salarian… but Sylens gots to be one.
i want everyone to look at the gorgeous commission i got from @palavenmoons !! they were a joy to work with and i’m so happy with the finished result, the pose, the little details! go support them if you’re able!!
I could not participate for the main event but I wanted to contribute for a seasonal spook! This is a concept that was born from worldbuilding thoughts while working on my coming fanfiction The Empire of Preys.
Meet the Vrejjeen! I feel like many cultures share archetypes that follow some primal anxieties, so I wanted to figure out what would the salarian equivalent to a vampire look like. She’s a legendary monster whose name refers to the co-dependant union of a salarian female infected with a melufer leech, a parasitic lifeform that breeds inside small living creatures, overtake their brain functions and eventually kill them. The popularity of that myth peaked during the rachni wars, but she’s still a common figure in horror/gothic media nowadays, and would make for a cool costume for salarians pumped about human parties and traditions…
I left more “lore” informations about the Vrejjeen under the cut in case you want to hear about that spooky girl…….
Trying to finger phone doodle some Mass Effect aliens without ref, totally can’t remember what Krogran look like. Attempted a thane but erased it because I haven’t flirted with him enough yet to recall much more than “fishbro with dudeboob window.”
« Lots of ways to help people. Sometimes heal patients; sometimes execute dangerous people. Either way helps. »
Mordin! The cutest character in the Mass Effect universe in my humble opinion (except Legion, I guess). And did you hear him sing? He’s just gorgeous and it’s not discussed! :D
