This is a sketch of an Astralonian by me Some info on the Astralonians, living in the country of Astralon that spans around 500mly: They first emerged in the year 19,780,999 BCE on the Planet Hyryryryryryyryren orbiting the K7V star Lyrontris. The Astralonians evolved to be a carnivorous, land-dwelling crustacean with an endoskeleton and an exoskeleton. One of their arms is a large blade composed of calcium carbonate, chitin, proteins and iron, used only for self defense. Is is usually placed above its head when not being used. The other arm has a hand composed of multiple large digits which were originally used for stabbing prey. As the Astralonians evolved and advanced, these digits were used for tool usage and writing. This is mainly why Astralonians are known for drawing and painting rather than taking images (unless if it is a formal occasion). This sketch is canonically drawn by an Astralonian. They have six legs, four at the back and two at the front. They do not talk via respiratory systems or vocal cords. Instead, they communicate telepathically as they believe this method consumes less energy. A significant portion of the mechanism is somewhat unknown, however it is known that they utilize weak electromagnetic fields. Over time, the Astralonians expanded, built vast megastructures, constructed Von Neumann probes, transcended biology itself and discovered a solution to halt their natural evolution in order to prevent unnecessary natural changes. Eventually, Astralon was founded in 3/11/2056, as millions of existing nations united under a single motto: • "The Stars Will Bow Before Us" Astralon currently exists within the South Sector, and its capital city is Eonium. The center of Eonium is the Starbleed Galaxy, which the Lyrontris System is located. Hyryryryryryyryren is now unhabitable due to the thermal energy and high electromagnetic radiation emitted by Lyrontris as a nearby gas giant collided with the star, causing Hyryryryryryyryren's atmosphere to photoevaporate.
Fun fact: If you try to say Hyryryryryryyryren in a sentence out loud, you'd run out of breath before being able to say the rest. _________________fish______________ This is still WIP, I'm also drawing an Astralonian from the front view and other stuff, like Astralonian Von Neumann probes.
