Predecessor - Gardener

"Some sketches of the statues we found in the ruins south of town, as well as the markings underneath it. No clue if it is meant to be an artistic depiction of one of the Predecessors or if it is literal. There's nothing but near destroyed art in the ruins on the surface, and those Guardians don't let us get anywhere near anything that goes deeper than half of a meter." - Belias Ardwin, Head Archeologist of F.R.I (Deceased as of 5016u)

#the statue is literal #Predecessors had much more comprehensive and direct control of the genome #they literally would alter one specific part of their body to look like a different organism #this one is an important one though #it made a horn that would be compatible with a tree branch #and fucking grafted that thang on #many of the most important predecessors would do this #going past mimicry and outright becoming one with a creature or plant they feel a link to #by the end of the predecessor's existence they'd take this even further #which is directly the reason why they don't exist in the traditional sense any longer #art #ttrpg art #sci fi #digital art #creature #creature design
