He is a being swamped real-life - from what I understand, it may be a few more weeks for him to sort stuff out. Please be patient with him, I am sure we will all be rewarded for our patience!

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
What would be the overall reaction of the leadership of the Loroi if they met a new sentient species tomorrow morning that was telepathic/psionic like them? Would it be a cause for concern (as they do not have their 'edge' anymore) or would be something they would be able to rejoice about (finally s...

Re: Loroi Women Versus Human Women... As Wives
The way I see it, I believe that while some long lasting monogamous relationships may be possible between specific human/loroi individuals, they would remain fringe cases and from very far the norm. The lack of telepathy may or may not be an obstacle - there might be some Loroi 'introverts' that act...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
If a civilian possesses an unusual amount of expertise in a critical field (think people who can start revolutions in their fields of work), how much respect can they garner socially, compared to those in the military? Would someone like this who can potentially make incredible contributions be allo...

Re: Miscellaneous Terran question-and-answer thread
If the Terran scientists+engineers had to reverse engineer a minor piece of tech from the Loroi and Umiak to understand how it worked - say an energy based rifle - which one would be easier or closer from a technological perspective? I think the three seashells would be the first priority. :mrgreen...

Re: Page 209: Damn bugs and their chatter! Putting Alex to sleep!
https://well-of-souls.com/gallery/images/outsider209.jpg Yep, the damn chittering is turning Alex into a telepath :P Seriously, I have a working theory (that I planned to use in a story) that certain states of mind would allow the Lotai to be pierced/lowered a little. There are more than a few ritu...

Re: Miscellaneous Terran question-and-answer thread
In regards to the tech level difference between humanity and loroi/umiak - some of it is because we understand the theoretical science behind it but we don't have the technical capability of making use of said science and the other part would likely be due to yet to be discovered science that is unk...

"Warm-blooded animals cannot be too small; otherwise, they will lose heat faster than they can produce it." They can still get pretty small, though: the Etruscan Shrew, who holds the record of World's Smallest Mammal by mass, has an average adult weight of just 1.8 gram. There are always going to b...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
No. I've never had a massage either, and I doubt massages are a thing in the military. I see...I reckon the Loroi would enjoy a human given one anyway as the human Lotai would be a boon in that case. When they are off duty. Maybe, but if you grow up in a culture where you don't like to be touched b...

Miscellaneous Cast question-and-answer thread
So with Arioch's blessing, I am starting this thread to allow us to ask questions that are specific to the cast members of Outsider - as long as they don't compromise the plot.

Is there any Loroi fauna that bears an uncanny resemblance to Terran fauna in the same manner the Loroi vs Humans is a case of Blue vs Pink (I know there is a lot more than just skin colour)?

Well today is Canada Day and this weekend is 4th of July. Could you tell us some of the holidays that Loroi celebrate and maybe a quick how they are celebrated/observed? Its a good chance "Semoset" is the most noteworthy one in the Deinar star system. According to Insider, a month-long celebration ...
