"A unique Nanocyte agent explores the depths of a seemingly
abandoned living starship of the dreaded Swarm, looking for, and
finding, the son of her employer patron suspended in some form of Stasis
pod.
"Now, the only trick is to get them both out alive, as she hears an ever increasing skittering sound behind her....."
Yet
another rare non-lewd image from me, and yet another Starfinder
Tabletop RPG inspired image, this time based on one of the 'new'
classes, the Nanocyte from 'Tech Revolution'.
"Your
body houses an untold number of nanites, tiny machines that can grant
you incredible fortitude, transform into tools, and course across the
battlefield to decimate your foes"
There
is a alien race in Starfinder called the Spathinae, which is a single
individual composed of a 'swarm' of tiny insects that all share a group
mind (so....."One Million Ants"? )
I
liked the look of the race, but I wanted my 'character' to be an actual
swarm of nanaobots, so this is the conceit I use for her creation:
This character (to be named later) started life as an android.
Unfortunately,
during one mission, she fell victim to an 'Assembly Ooze', a creature
that absorbs technological items and transforms them into random smaller
tech.
Luckily, one
member of her team was a magical 'Witchwarper', a practitioner of Magic
who specialized in exploring alternate realities, and manifesting those
realities into his own in various ways.
Thanks
to a powerful spell he cast, instead of being consumed by the Assembly
Ooze, she instead merged with it and became a new being, with total
control of the nanites that composed her new body.
In
this scene she has already manifested a 'energy sword' from her
nanites, and is in the process of creating another item around her left
hand.
Quick
'Composition' notes: I simply applied a 'hexagonal patterned metal'
texture to the skin of the model, and used a 'Spider-Gwen' mask I had
for the head, with the same texture applied to get this look.
I
gave her clothing because the race can still wear normal gear, and get
the benefits from it (like armor), although it must be specially
modified if they want to use any of their 'swarm' abilities (otherwise
it just falls away).
