Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread

[Tamri]

If Loroi eat a lot of stuffed fried food then they either all have fast metabolisms or obese Loroi are a reality!

They have more effective metabolism than humans. I don't saying they cannot get fat but, in general, our obesity problem arises from the fact that our body don't know what doing whis a so much calories. Liron was may come up with what doing to this aspect of body.

Fun possible story fact (if Arioch is feeling silly), all that extra fat is burned off via telepathy!

They can burn fat via sanzai!

Imagine how much more fat Mizol and Tempo burn with their telekinesis!

That one meal a day is likely a huge one lol.

IIRC, Loroi telepathy and psychokinesis doesn't use body energy, anyway no more than common mind effort.

With a single meal per day, they probably avoid such problems.

Mostly our problem is that we eat more and exercise less than what our species is adapted for.

That what i said. Earlier our body had no opportunity to to eat many calories for regular, at least - in population scale. But, in really short period (for evolution) we began to eat more, and doing less of physical activity... and our body doesn't know, what doing for this bunch of calories.

So.....
Cloud is dead?

[Tamri]

Based on the Beryl's phrase - yes.

[Bamax]

So.....
Cloud is dead?

Beryl's words did not directly imply Cloud's death.

Alex mentioned 8 of them. So that's...

1. Fireblade
2. Tempo
3. Talon
4. Beryl
5. Spiral
7. Reed
8. Flint


Oh... I guess she did in a way. Since 9 would imply cloud being alive.

Plus cloud is no where in the farsensing panel, anf she could not survive without being taken prisober on the umiak ship.

So shevis eithet dead or awaiting executoion after intrrrogation.

[gaerzi]

Alex said "eight of you", Beryl didn't confirm or deny, she just said that only a few of the Umiak were tough guys, and the rest were no match to the combined might of Tempo and Fireblade, so they have their chance as long as the Umiak do not scuttle the ship first.

Why do you hate the number six, Bamax?

[Zorg56]

Cloud...
It is obvious that she is ded, but Alex probably didnt realised it yet.
He will probably see her body on the way out.

The Loroi we've seen so far are all front-line soldiers on hazardous duty with supply lines that are questionable at best; they don't have a lot of opportunity to get fat. I also think there's a limit to how fat a front-line soldier can get without her peers or superiors intervening.

Also, if you're tailoring genes, I don't think starvation is a major consideration; therefore, storing a lot of fat is not a beneficial trait in an ultra-tech civilization.

Stiil, I don't vary the shapes of Loroi figures as much as I should; you don't have to be fat to have different shapes. I find it hard to do, since I want to make everything look good, and skintight bodysuits are not very forgiving in this regard. There are scenes in the future of groups of Loroi who are not front-line soldiers (and who may not necessarily be wearing skintight bodysuits), and I will have an opportunity to work on this.

Can't wait to see more of loroi culture! Will this include civilian loroi in the comic?

Loroi males are strictly civillians by law, so yes.... judging by preview pics of Loroi males he has drawn.

Are shipboard Loroi really frontline fighters in this regard? They aren't infantrymen.

The convenience here is that they are already sorted into body types by occupation. You can also keep them in skintight suits. All of us will be very understanding.

If you look at photos of the crews of WWII US Navy combat vessels that saw a lot of action (like destroyers and cruisers), you won't see many fat sailors.

You didn't see many fat people in general back then. That wasn't specific to sailors.

Different generation, most of which is dead or dying now. Different culture. Different technology. Different food. Different habits.


I wager people were a bit less sedentary than the cellphone zombies of today who are up and coming.

[Arioch]

Well, also a population coming out of the Great Depression.

Roughly analogous to having been at war for 25 years.
