throwback to sometime around 2023

I need to post more worldbuilding stuff. Actually getting stuff down for the Daphur-Ascarian conflict was fun, and it had been a blurry spot in the story for like 10 years at this point.

They found a seemingly peaceful post-industrial civilization living amongst the ruins of their old war-like ways. The Daphur allowed the Humans to use Dellano as a forward base for their own war against the Ascarains. This decision thrust Dellano back into the galactic sphere. [End]

The Ascarian occupation of Dellano and subjugation of the Daphur lasted almost four hundred years before they voluntarily left the Daphur to their own devices. When the Humans discovered the Daphur in 2149...

Their brutal losses and total capitulation caused a titanic shift across Daphur culture as a whole. Population control was established with hormonal suppressants available to be taken during mating season. Conflicts were resolved between factions by a new mediator guild overseen by an Ascarian court

The Ascarians pushed them back to only three planets and the Daphur made a plea to surrender. After great deliberation by the Ascarians, they accepted the Daphur’s surrender on the condition that the Daphur abandon independent spaceflight and limit themselves to their single homeworld.

The conflict led to the many factions putting aside their differences and fighting together for the first time, and they tried to mount a last minute desperate defense. New tech was developed, coordination fostered a period of unbelievable trust and camaraderie. But it was too little too late.

The counterattack pushed deep into the Daphur sphere adopting a policy more like pest control than actual warfare. The factional nature of the Daphur led to little coordination across the front, some clans used the war to take out rivals. But they realized that the Ascarians were not going to stop.

At first the Ascarians treated the Daphur incursions as raids by a rogue group while they attempted to make diplomatic contact with a central Daphur government, however they were led on by their contacts into an ambush and the emissary was killed along with their escorts.

Their response was swift and they destroyed the fleet, but other factions in the Daphur sphere had smelled blood in the water and they too wanted to get in on the action.

The fleet let loose its hungry and aggressive fighters onto the surface with no restraint and the under defended colony was almost entirely wiped out overnight. The Ascarians were horrified when they found the remains of their colonists.

Conflicts ranged from mechanized infantry and armor, to tooth and claw. But fighting rarely ever reached the city states themselves; their wars burned fast and quick. First contact with the Ascarians was a Daphur exploration fleet razing an Ascarian colony world for its ideal habitability.

Prior to their intense conflict with the Ascarians, the Daphur were nearly always at a state of war with one another. Rapid reproduction rates and high population numbers led to territorial disputes between clans, city states, and planets that often flashed into brutal fighting out in the wildlands.

Cartoon: If anyone in Chicago knows this school or an anti ICE organization affiliated with them I would be happy to donate this art. I only wish I could have fully Sal Buscema-ed that punch :)

I havent played destiny 2 in a long time, who the FUCK is this and when did the Vex start wearing clothes?

After two and a half years of chipping away, it’s done. UD: Cross Streets. Fighting on Earth during the first year of the Ascarian Invasion.

The Ascarians are the ones who kicked that ass, and thus knew them back when they were not nice.

Doodled a quick ref of sorts for the Daphur. Little space kobold like dudes. Historically they're pretty villainous, but right now they are in a societal reshuffle and moment of friendliness. All stemming from getting their ass kicked on a massive scale. #furryart #worldbuilding #scifi

looks at you like this

Finally got all the prints I've bought framed and put up around my space. Free wall space is kind of short in my room so I had to get a little creative. Wonderful Art by @sephive.bsky.social and @themefinland.bsky.social

Ever since downloading the mod that gave better looking lights to the crafts and additions mod, wherever I want permanent lighting I’ve decided it has to be wired up.

Finally back to work on this one after almost a year. Feeling better about the building now. Still a lot of work to do though.

Bringing back Nika’s scifi adventure

Like maybe actually expanding on Nika’s story, which hasn’t been touched since 2015

Maybe I should take a break from UD for a short while. I’ve been “working” on it for years now and I might be feeling a little burned out on it.

It's ballday:)

I need to do some world building posts for UD but I don't know where to start

Just a portion of a picture Im working on. I originally avoided drawing pieces from the Ascarian POV since noone would understand their language, but I decided to just use english for the art pieces so I could finally do some of these ideas.
