Made an entire alien species to have lore behind my "space angel" alien motherfucker because now he just needs his story and I'm set

I want to figure out organ systems and dietary components and base elements (non-carbon based life forms) and other life on their home planet and much much more, but I'll do that later

#i like creating species and speculative biology #especially because i designed them to be a prey species who- instead of just outsmarting or avoiding predators like humans- made them extinc #extinct*#because its cool and then i can include prey traits on an apex predator species (quills and pads and extra arms for foraging)#and following evolutionary rules every animal on their planet wpuld have to have 8 legs #which is something that bothered me in the Avatar movies because #the whole way you tell the difference between human in a skinsuit and actual Na'vi is an evolutionary difference in their hands #but everything else doesnt line up #unless everything with only 4 limbs has vestigial limbs theres either mulitple evolutionary lines and different ancestors #or they didnt plan very well and i want to know which #my art #alien oc #alien art #speculative biology #speculative evolution
