The hookfang boar, a piscivorous pig from the Hyne's Inheritance project!

#pig #boar #creaturedesign #specevo #speculativeevolution #specbio

The Eastern Riverlands refers to a large region of central Arion east to the Chrysa Ring and north of the Still Sea. Thousands of years ago, this expanse of low-lying grassland and fluvial plains became the first place to be colonized by the hyne. These horse people took residence in the dryer uplands where their preferred domesticated crops could grow. The sprawling rivers and wetlands between their hilltop villages are known as dangerous borderlands home to terribly large alligators, fish, and boar. The hooktusk boar is a species of large piscivorous swine. Specialized to wade into shallow water and catch fish akin to a giant piggy heron, hooktusks actually pose little danger to the hyne. While taller and certainly capable of dispatching large prey, these boars have long narrow jaws with a weak bite strength meant to clasp down on fish. The eponymous hooked tusks prevent fish from slipping out forward while sharpened molars slice into scaly flesh. They could give a hyne a nasty bloody bite but are highly uninclined to do so. The dark pelt aids them in blending in at night, when they prefer to be active. Their large ears alert them to the faint splashing of fish below the water. All four of their toes tough the ground and are connected by webbing. They are poor swimmers so instead use this to prevent them from sinking into soft mud and silt. Long thin legs allow them to keep much of their body out of the water, appearing as thin trunks or branches to their prey. This species lives in sprawling gregarious groups that remain amicable throughout the year. Mature boars will challenge one another for mating rights each autumn but this takes the form of bellowing oinks and flashing tusks. Rarely do they inflict it on one another, reserving it for their prey or the odd onlooker.

I know I keep mention pentaradial symmetry lately but truely my true love in alien sophont design is secondarily bilateral symmetry as seen with my tri-flyer and starfawn.

The Chrysa Captor, a species of large burrowing cat that lives alongside the hyne.

#specevo #speculativeevolution #specbio #cat #feline #creatureart

Captors, a cosmopolitan genus of large cat, have claimed a position as one of Demeter's apex predators 15 million years hence. One of the many diverse descendants of feral cats that once provided pest control upon the agricultural colony, captors are highly specialized ambushers. A low, long body and short powerful bodies allow them to remain close the ground, sometimes exemplified by their tendancy to dig. Most species of captors dig out complex burrows. While solitary hunters, it isn't uncommon for captors to live in small clans and rear kits together. A main chamber provides protection for the young, generally cared for by a revolving door of their mothers, aunts, etc. And long tunnels radiate outward across the territory, exiting out towards common areas where prey are known to pass through like along watering holes, rivers, and plentiful grazing ground. Males and a small percentage of females will disperse from their natal groups to join or form new clans on productive territory. To facilitate this digging lifestyle, captors have distinctive forepaws. All their claws are large and non-retractable, more like bears. On the forepaw, three are weightbaring while two are held aloft and feature giant semi-opposable sickles used to restrain prey while delivering a quick bite to their prey's cervical spine, paralyzing it. Prominent whiskers and a wide nose allow captors to navigate underground.

Some creature design/spec bio practice ft. Queen Deltarune
#deltarune #specbio

Illustration depicting a redesign of Queen from Deltarune to make her more biologically plausible. There are three of her depicted in the image, one to the left that depicts her full body while holding a glass of acid and laughing. In the middle of the bottom, there is a half body of her holding a finger to the viewer while she drinks acid, and one to the right with her standing idly as a way to show her skeleton. She has the head and wings like that of a theropod, but her head is now white with black surrounding her eyes and her wings are white on top and blue on the bottom. She has a long, blue crest on her head like a mixture of parasaurolophus and a cassowary. She has a mane of blue and white feathers around her neck. Her white legs are like that of a buff ostrich, with some additional black plumage on the lower half of them. There is text scattered about the image to give further context to various features, they read, from top to bottom: “Archaeruleus regis “Royal Blue Ruler” Queen is 220cm (7 ‘2), while Susie is 183cm (6’) Feathered mane is used as a display structure. For both intimidation and attracting mates Flexible lips allow for complex vocalizations and expressions. "Acid" is a finely ground up mixture of various rocks used to aid in digestion. Known to be an irritant to other organisms Claws are rather blunt as they're used more to help with gripping rather than being an offensive measure. Although, they can be sharpened and ones on the feet frequently are. Crest used for communication, creating a loud sound that alerts all other animals in the vicinity of an important announcement. (Notifications) Additional large plumage on legs is less dense than it looks to avoid increasing drag too much while running, though it is used for both keeping in and dispelling heat. A kind of nail polish is applied to the claws of hands and toes to match the colors of nearby feathers. Purely for aesthetics.”

Spectember 2025 Day 11: Sailback Dragon

GOOAALLL

For the Hyne's Inheritance

Sailback dragons are a large bipedal species of agamid lizards descended from bearded dragons.

#dragonart #lizard #specevo #specbio

Sailback dragons are a large bipedal species of agamid lizards descended from bearded dragons breed on Demeter to support offworld demands for the common, expressive exotic pet. As the most plentiful colonizing reptile, dragons have gone on to diversify across Demeter's tropical and subtropical regions, only rivaled by alligators due to their larger size and semiaquatic nature. Sailbacks are native to the Chython desert, a vast interior hot desert hosting scattered scrubland along sparse streams and towering plateaus. Standing roughly 2ft tall and weighing 45 lbs, they are not the largest of their genus of bipedal dragons, kept small by the scarcity of their environment. Along with the nomadic hyne cultures, sailbacks are one of the few animals above 15 pounds found here. Opportunistic, diernal omnivores, dragons forage during all but the worse heat of the day when they seek shelter. While not highly cursorial, their long hindlimbs afford them an efficient stride and they can travel for miles each day in search of water, small animals to hunt, and fruit. Most striking of the dragon's features are the four tall horns atop its head and sailfin along its back. Both structures are rather fragile and used for display and species identification. It is generally taller in males and used to advertise and compete for mates. During the mild winters, males become territorial, challenging one another with displays of rhythmic dancing and ancestral headbob ing. Females generally select the victors although smaller or submissive females may make do with similarly ranking males.
