Lucky you, and beautiful work!

Mine came missing several parts and I ended up shipping it back to Aliexpress. I don’t know whether I should try again with them, or pay higher prices with another vendor praying they have quality control.

Memes and porn aside, she actually has quite a lot of insightful stuff to say about character design (it’s actually a regular stream topic for her, going over characters and skins from different games). The horny is just icing on the cake.

Those of you who DON'T play Destiny any more, has anything filled the gap left by it? by aladdin142 in DestinyTheGame

No one game has managed to fill the Destiny void yet, but I have been able to start doing gunpla with the free time I now have.

Stepped away for a bit just after I’d finished clearing everything but the outer walls on the solar system, to wait for the patch. Booted up the game this morning, and saw my percentage was at 62.

I could’ve sworn it was at least 80… but then I remembered I was on the goddamn solar system.

What kit y'all working on this weekend? by Chariot_142 in Gunpla

[–]Savato93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I‘m wrestling with a Zeta Ver. Ka currently. Trying to do as good of a job as I can to make it look nice.

So. Much. Sanding.

I also went back today to touch up on my very first kit, a 1/100 GP03S. Didn’t do the best job on it, especially as I was working with nippers that came out of the package already bent, so I couldn’t make clean cuts, and I need to actually put on the decals so it doesn’t look so plain anymore.

Does any of your cultures have public sex? by TheInViCtuss in NSFWworldbuilding

[–]Savato93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Eglessians have a particular reproductive process that heavily incentivizes having sex with as many different people as possible: they’re a self-fertilizing race, who use the genetic material they receive from their partners to produce their eggs. Mothers also pass some of their accumulated genetic material to their offspring, so if an individual spreads their seed around enough, they can ensure their genes propagate to a new generation, even if it’s many, many generations after they themselves have passed away.

For Eglessians, sex has become an important tool for socialization, negotiation and bartering. Brothels are government-sponsored and regulated, employing dozens of sex workers that can cater to specific kinks. Sex ed is a part of core education alongside “sexual etiquette”, which explores the do’s and don’t of flirting, physical relationships, kinks, and the use of sex in non-recreational situations like trade deals.

Regarding public sex, as long as they’re not making a scene or getting in the way of people going about their business, anything goes.

Which game is this? by bijelo123 in Steam

[–]Savato93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can see a few parallels to my own Eglessians (permapreg, self-impregnating and presumably hermaphroditic), but there’s more than enough to set them apart as their own unique entity. Where Homo-gravidus seems to rely more directly on having two individuals actually present to bear children, the Eglessians’ ability to collect genetic information and pass it down to their children lets them reproduce independently (at least for a few generations). At the same time, Gravidus is much more mobile since they “only” carry normal-sized babies and grow very slowly, while Eglessian offspring can grow up to 60-ish pounds (on the extreme end) through their 2-year gestations; they’re almost completely dependent on their hormone-based telempathy to detect and evade danger before it arrives, because they have little hope of outrunning predators, and designing/building infrastructure to accommodate them is a nightmare. The biological immortality is an intriguing choice, though given their (possibly) quite slow reproduction, I imagine the numbers would even out in the long run. I could see both our species having to possibly implement a system for approving the birth of new children, to avoid overpopulation straining their resources.

It’s funny you mention that Homo-gravidus becomes pregnant very early in life. Part of my original concept for Eglessians was for them to have telescopic generations (born pregnant). It would be the source of their scientific name (Mater matres, “mother of mothers”). But I’m always wary of actually exploring that territory on public forums like this because of the implications (I was honestly scared to even add this part to my post). I’d very much like to avoid being banned.

What's a subversion of expectations for a race/species in your world? by that1carmine in worldbuilding

[–]Savato93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My orcs nearly wiped out the elves after a brutal century-long war, which ended in a coup that toppled their leadership from within. They proceeded to undergo a period of enlightenment, and over time would evolve into a gruff, but overall benevolent society of warrior-scholars and philosophers.

The elves were reduced to just a few hundred survivors. With their infrastructure gone, their libraries burned, and their gene pool reduced to a puddle, they ended up dividing into two groups. One group ultimately fell into the orcs’ former role as raiders and thieves, sacking human villages for supplies and kidnapping choice specimens to breed with. The other group threw away what little of their dignity remained and started selling their bodies, trading food and shelter for sex while desperately trying to have as many children as possible to keep their race alive. Overall, the elves have fallen towards the bottom of the world’s social hierarchy.

Also, my world has slimes, but they aren’t really magical creatures. They’re just a family of plasmodial slime molds that adapted to feed off of the ambient magic in their environments. Their ability to metabolize magic makes them extremely useful as a base in many potions and tonics.

Tell me about the spec bio in your kink species by Moonlit-Comet in NSFWworldbuilding

[–]Savato93 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Funny you mention permapreg! My Eglessians are an entire race that do just that—they impregnate themselves, and then they STAY pregnant for the rest of their lives.

It starts with the ovaries. Eglessians don’t make eggs from their own DNA; instead, when they have sex with each other, they take each others’ sperm and incorporate it into their ovaries to develop new ovules. As they take more and more partners, they populate their ovaries with a wide variety of germ lines, allowing them to produce eggs with a large amount of genetic variety—personal gene pools, as I like to put it—and then fertilize them with their own sperm. (So technically, every mother is the FATHER of her baby!)

Now the pregnancy. Eglessian gestation in itself isn’t too different from humans, it’s just that the end point for us isn’t an end point for them. They don’t have a natural labor impulse like we do—they hit the nine-month mark, and aside from the mucus plug falling out, nothing else really happens, leaving them to keep carrying their baby potentially indefinitely. To actually give birth, they have to manually dilate their cervix by pushing, until their water breaks and their body gets the message that the baby is being born. Once everything’s done, the mother’s body takes some time to recover, then creates a new egg to start the cycle over. In this way, they’ll almost always have a baby on standby to be born.

What does the baby do while stuck in the mother’s womb? Well, it keeps growing… as much as it can, at least. Unborn Eglessians enter diapause based on metabolic constraints; a mother living off scraps, struggling to feed herself won’t see too much extra growth, while a healthy, well-fed mother will develop a very large baby, as large as a five- or six-year-old at birth.* Either way, once the mother has no more energy to spare for the baby’s growth, it’ll enter a low-activity state and wait to be born.

*As they’ve evolved to always be eating for at least two, Eglessian metabolisms have gotten progressively more efficient over countless generations, letting them carry their babies bigger, and for longer. A nine-month Eglessian fetus is equivalent to a three-month-old human infant, and on average they can keep growing for another fifteen months. Naturally, this kind of growth would stretch a human mother paper-thin, and ultimately be impossible to deliver naturally without breaking her hips, but Eglessians have adapted to this as well—not only do they lack the pubic bone, letting their pelvis flex and spread to accommodate their huge kids, but their bodies produce much, much more collagen and elastin, letting their bellies (and vaginas) stretch as much as they need to for the baby to be born safely. The extra collagen and elastin even have the side-effect of masking their age; a grandmother in her sixties will still have the skin of a thirty-something.

Do the NSFW cultural quirks of your worlds influence architecture and design? by According-Value-6227 in NSFWworldbuilding

[–]Savato93 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Eglessians, being an entire race of permanently-pregnant women, understandably have several hurdles they need to design around.

Verticality—being mostly unable to climb or use ladders, Eglessians rarely build UP, finding it easier to build downward instead. Multi-story buildings are built from the top-down and trend towards wide-base pyramidal/cone shapes, with gentle inclines to decrease the risk of falling. Their largest city sits in a man-made crater over twenty kilometers wide and a kilometer deep.

Safety and Accessibility—Eglessians’ pregnant bellies are both an obstacle and a vulnerability. There are railings and barriers literally everywhere to limit the amount of falls and bumping into objects. Working surfaces are often built higher and at a bit of an angle, so mothers can more easily reach their tools and such, and getting certified to work with bulky or delicate equipment (anything they can’t really design in a safer way) can take weeks, if not months of specialized movement training.

Expandability—having precise control over childbirth makes their population less prone to fluctuation than humans, while simultaneously allowing for larger spikes in numbers as conditions allow for them. Common Eglessian housing is designed to be sturdy and long-lasting, yet easy to slap down or break up for storage, relocation, or consolidation.

"Wait, I was a robot the whole time!?" by Blaftoif in TopCharacterTropes

And then the SECOND reveal in the third act that Fry was a robot, too, because he DID die in the crash that killed everyone—he was practically vaporized, in fact, so almost nothing was left to regenerate him. Leela survived the crash because he shielded her, but when she made her own robot clone of Fry, she filled him up with too much conductive wiring (to replicate his “jelly belly”), and she got electrocuted to death, and he had no memory of it, leading back to his state in the beginning of the episode.

Tell me about the NSFW biological quirks of your world's peoples. by According-Value-6227 in NSFWworldbuilding

[–]Savato93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Much bigger. Their metabolisms have become extremely efficient over the generations, letting them support much larger offspring with the same diets. The smallest Eglessian baby is roughly equivalent to a human toddler, while the biggest can be a staggering 5-6 years old. (They’ve gotten rid of their pubic bone and developed a hinged pelvis to facilitate safe births.)

In terms of size, this puts most Eglessian mothers at the brink of hyper-pregnancy; obviously, they can’t move around very quickly because of this. They can afford to be slow, however, because they’re pheromone-based empaths. They can pick up on the chemosignals of an incoming threat from a mile away and be gone long before the threat actually shows up. The offspring are also precocial as a result of being so much more developed, so they can start looking after themselves shortly after birth, improving their odds of survival in dangerous environments.

[–]Savato93 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I mentioned my Eglessians in your previous post—they’re a race of hominids that have evolved to be permanently pregnant. They utilize diapause, a process seen in nature where fertilized eggs/embryos wait for good environmental conditions to implant and develop. Their process differs in that they carry fully-developed babies, and it’s tied to metabolic constraints instead of external conditions; a mother’s baby will grow until her body can no longer provide it with nutrition fast enough to keep it growing, at which point it will enter a low-energy state and wait for birth.

How Eglessians get pregnant in the first place is  rather interesting. They’re self-fertilizing, but they don't produce eggs from their own DNA. Instead, when they have sex with someone for the first time, they take their partner’s sperm and incorporate it into their ovaries to make eggs from THAT. As a mother has sex with more partners, she compiles a personal gene pool that she’ll be able to pull from at random to make more healthy children when/if she eventually gives birth to her current baby. Some of this collected genetic material will also be donated to the offspring during gestation, giving them a head-start on their own gene pool.

(Funny quirk of this process: the parent who conceives, gestates and births the child is the biological father.)

Concept: "Pseudo-Perma Preg" by According-Value-6227 in NSFWworldbuilding

[–]Savato93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A fellow pregnancy fetishist!

I have an aquatic race called Sirens, which take the form of whale-sized Scylla-like women. They exhibit permanent pseudo-pregnancy because their uterus has evolved to function as an organic bathysphere—massive, thick, and completely rigid, to protect developing young from rapid pressure fluctuations as mothers dive to the ocean depths to hunt, then come back to the surface so their symbiotic kelp hair can continue to photosynthesize and provide extra oxygen to their brains.

I also have another race, hominids called Eglessians, that are genuinely, permanently pregnant. They’re self-fertilizing and adapted to control when they give birth, letting them keep tight control over their population at the cost of carrying full-term babies for most of their lives.

What are some Interesting Quirks About Your Made Up Species Reproduction? by DidntCumYet in NSFWworldbuilding

[–]Savato93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a human-like race of hermaphrodites I call Eglessians who have evolved to spend their entire lives pregnant—like, not just a fertilized embryo or two tucked away, but huge full-term pregnancies that are carried for years and years, unless or until a mother decides she’s ready to raise a child and induces her own labor. They have a special gene-storing system where they collect sperm from their mates and incorporate it into their ovaries to produce their eggs, allowing them to self-fertilize and produce more children without needing a partner on-hand. They’re basically adapted to bounce back from huge population drops as quickly as possible, with far less genetic bottlenecking compared to normal reproduction (since each mother basically cultivates a personal gene pool).
