New roleplaying race coming soon...
 
I was bored today and so I decided to create a new roleplaying race for my use. They are the Rukbat Star Republic. I'll be working on their race style periodically and probably add a website.

Here is the race portrait, what do you guys think of President Kwok?

He reminds me of Catbert, and is probably just as diabolical!

at some point i need to commission a shipset for the Nausea Heap (my PBW race). You can guess the theme, so I supose someone who is good at 'abstract' would be a plus.

President Kwok diabolical? No, just a green fat guy.

I based him on a character I drew a long time ago - except I called them Geezoids then...

Why does Rukbat sound familiar? Is it the name of the planet the Tanu and Firvulag came from in the "Pliestocene Epoch" SF series? Or the name of a planet in the Dragonworld series by Anne McCaffery?

Man, I hate this early Alzheimer's...

Rukbat? I think it's also in a game called Utopia for Super Nintendo...

Yep, Rukbat is the name of the star in McCaffrey's Pern books http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif

Don't the Tanu and Firvulag come from the Julian May novels?
e.g. The many-colored Land?
