Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
Can Loroi catch a sunburn? If so, what color does their skin turn from it? Yes. In humans, burns and other rashes are reddish because the blood supply is increased near the surface of the skin, so it follows that sunburn in Loroi would be bluish. Same goes for any other similar phenomenon, such as ...

Re: Loroi Trade translation request general
The Space elves have a high and mighty opinion of themselves, but do they see any of the other races in the same way we see "Florida Man?" If Not, are Humans the Florida Man?

Re: Off Topic: Lets Make a Scifi/Fantasy Race, Reptilian
Been a while since I took a science class, but my understanding of most evolution is done by mutations. If the mutation is helpful in some way, it allows the species to progress in that direction. In most cases it takes along time. Some we are watching in real time. TO have a real world example of t...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
To the Loroi or their allies (or even enemies) have a tattoo culture(s). Humans have developed seral before the Polanyian word for it became near universal for it. Lots of space ships, probably a sailor culture there. If so how would the different cultures and subcultures view them?

Re: Off Topic: Lets Make a Scifi/Fantasy Race, Reptilian
@Moon Moth: I believe the main theory as to why we went from largely quadruped to bipedal was to get a better look over the tall grasses to look around (kinda like meerkats) and as Darwinian calculus progressed traits that would allow for this to be permanent developed and we would have the bases fo...

Whose to say our posture needs to be the only one that works? A gorilla like stance might be of use (thinking Grunts from Halo when they walk). I agree most reptiles on earth wouldn't fit the bill. There is a reason many haven't changed much if at all since the days of the dinosaurs. Evalution is a ...

Off Topic: Lets Make a Scifi/Fantasy Race, Reptilian
Making an none human race is fun to do in fiction, be it reptilian, amphibian, avian, or alien space babes that want to experience this human concept called "love." That said, lets see how we can think how a race can evolve from standard animal to sapient dominant species. In this case, Reptilian. N...

Then maybe the Loroi were giving him bland food on purpose since as an unknown alien they thought to just give him the basics. Still.... you'd think not all of it would be awful unless Stillstorm did it out of spite. The Loroi have no way of knowing what Alex can even digest, much less find tasty. ...

Re: Scifi Question: Is Governing An Interstellar Empire From The Past Feasible?
We have problems trying to come up with things that come up due to modern technology and lifestyle be it automobiles, fast food, or the internet. Some of these attempts were better than others.

I assume Loroi dont like grenades that much? Loroi like grenades just fine, but I think they have limited use in combat aboard ship. Besides the typical grenades people think of that use meant to kill such as using the shockwave of the explosion or shrapnel, what about other varieties? Flash Grenad...

Re: Are Loroi Women Better Than Human Women?
My two cents, Despite all Loroi have going for them human ladies beat them in one clear respect. They can reproduce a baby, whereas a man cannot ever make a baby with a Loroi woman. Beyond all that and the telepathy aspect, everything else is cultural. All Loroi females unless I am mistaken do what ...

Cone Art and Trench Art and Outsider Setting
Cone art is art done by soldiers on munitions and vehicles. Good examples are the cartoons characters or pinup girls on bombers in WW2, and the Shark Teeth/Tiger Teath on dog fighters in the same war and sometimes seen on the Wart Hog (the plain that was built around a giant gatling gun for air to g...

It is part of a pair of NHK documentaries that shed a lot of light on the tragedy at Okinawa.
