I have been peer pressured into making subnautica OCs. This is AL-AY, I will post its lore another time :)

Do you attempt to try petting him?

I *Looks at heavily chewed and bleeding hand* would recommend it- he's like a cat

Remade and redesigned Alyssums' model, very proud of this one ^-^ I've figured out shoulders a bit more and now the elbows are just my greatest struggle.

Workin on gettin her into VR Chat but the poly count is a touch higher than I'd like > - > (also updating my unity version appears to have broken something so gotta figure out how to fix that with minimal effort before i can even do test builds lol)

WOE! ARCHITECT OC BE UPON YE!

Anyway this is Fr-An, my Subnautica oc :3 lore under cut

They are an old researcher who was accidentally left behind on a lava planet, they lost one of their main arms and so they replaced it with one of their floating arms(which stopped working due to the planets strong magnetic field interrupting/ruining Fr-An's telepathy, which is also how they were left behind) The interruptions with the planets magnetic field made anything they said to their network basically static, and when the others on the team left they didn't realize Fr-An wasn't with them(it was a very quick escape tbf) and even if the team went back they wouldn't be able to locate Fr-An. Anyway, Fr-An's kinda angy and bitter now due to being left behind and having their telepathy ruined, and they also struggle to emote like a regular Architect since they constantly had to show red/orange colors to stay hidden.

. . . I made some Architect colts

They are all very baby and I ended up giving them flavored color palettes by accident- MI-LO is my favorite- laid back, fluffy and floppy, but JO-DI is pretty cool too very bubbly and chirpy. ER-IN is like a little sheep with their molting fur. CA-TH is kinda regal. AB-EL is a fussy baby and hopes to be a warrior someday. Then there's KE-TH, he's a wittle eepy.

*I should dump a light disclaimer here that I don't intend to sell these guys or do coms, HOWEVER, if you want them you're more than free to go ahead and doodle them, just leave the fanged stag signature I have somewhere :)*

Soooooo- the fact that some of them have faces is a part of a headcanon of mine that I'll leave below a cut since it may take a while to explain :)

The Architect, as we know, are a highly advanced and unified species, however, even with the "hiveminded" society, there is always room for individual thought and moreover opinions.

Now what the heck does this have to do with the babies? It's the process in which they are created.

There's two types of colts born through different methods which I label as "in-vivo" and "ex-vivo" (labeled literally). I'll write the differences below.

In-vivo: These colts are born through traditional methods (I won't go into detail on that for obvious reasons) which is what all forms of life do normally. Seeing as how the Architects are very goat shaped, I think that they would undergo pregnancy rather than laying eggs. Since these colts are born through this method, they don't have any electronic enhancements, they are naturally born with a thick fluffy fur, the weak bioluminescence on them is natural and doesn't shift, and most of all . . . they have what could possibly be the true faces of this legendary species. I feel that these colts would be more rare since they require time and effort to raise before being indoctrinated into the network, but a proper vessel would come as soon as possible. The colts aren't just small and weak, but the fact that they have a face is highly rejected in Architect society. Though choice is up to the broodsow (mother) they typically don't like to raise the colts and the face thing tends to make them uneasy. This could be due to the unified ideal of the society where a face is viewed as a sign of individuality where it isn't desired.

Ex-vivo: This type of colt is more common since they are fast grown from a seed producer by two (or more) donors, typically decided on collectively via what adaptations are needed. Neither donor has to raise these colts- that job is left to a nestmare and it often includes the basic teachings. Any colt must know how to seek out sources of energy- it's a fact that carries well into adulthood- if they can't, they are unfortunately culled and typically out of a brood of 15 only 5 will be able to carry out their lives. A broodsow of in-vivo colts by contrast can have up to all 15 surviving childhood before transfer where the same test is performed. Back to the ex-vivo colts, another issue is accidental malformalities which also contributes to the culling, which again is something that in-vivo colts don't have to worry about. The main thing about this method that makes it preferable is that the colts are naturally a part of the network, don't need to be taught much, very strong off the bat, and they fit well into society without the draw from the norms.

Both types of colts have their draws and benefits, but it's really up to the parent/network how they're born. Architects aren't really bound by good conscience and will naturally remove any bugs in their system. As a species with over 100 billon individuals a single death isn't too noticed- the memories and experiences of all members is catalogued quite well so for the most part it isn't too noticed. However; after the accident with Kahraa, any and all newborn colts are viewed in good light. Any efforts to repopulate the species is held in high esteem. Perhaps it does take an apocalypse to change society.

Also, the colts are about 3ft tall, super floppy like golden retriever puppies, love cuddles from any source, and are super playful- they get full cuteness baby cutie pie baby boo bop points from me <3
