Eldritch Foundry

I found a Hero Forge copycat, called Eldritch Foundry. Its UI a bit less polished and less user-friendly, and it’s a bit slow but it has more options and outfits than HF. I’m going to experiment later, but I might start using this instead. Seems less anatomically…odd.

Horus, The Sharpshooter (Concept)

Barik’s second in command and hailed as the best sniper in space, Horus fights from a distance with a sniper rifle that shoots poisonous needles, as well as drones that scout out hideouts on meteors and enemy ships. His outfit is [supposed to be] littered with mechanical eyes that make beeping noises to communicate with Horus in a fashion similar to morse code. Though he doesn’t speak, his loyalty to Bariks and the Scorn is unwavering.

Bored, so I did a thing

Bariks 2.0: Ghost of the Sea

Warden of the Galaxy, Captain of the Scorn. Bariks is a machinist Pirate who set off with his crew to uncover the secrets and riches of space. After a particularly deadly mission, Bariks stole a mysterious relic that would consequently curse him. On the verge of death, he crafted a helmet that would constantly supply him with gas that could maintain his health and allow him to breathe in space. While incredibly durable, it remains his secret weakness; destroying his helmet would cut off his life essentially.

Below the deck of his ship lies a small prison where Bariks captures and contains war criminals and captains of enemy ships. He constantly runs arenas for the entertainment of him and his crew. If the prisoners survive and climb the ranks, they join him. If they don’t, well they don’t.

I’m pretty happy with this new design, it looks much more like a Machinist than his old one. Again, his helmet looks odd due to heroforge limitations, but I do have ideas for it.

Nick’s Instruments, and Ruby

With the help of Max, Nick created a HiveMind—extremely complex digital “minds”, sort of like a sentient AI—called “Ruby”. The data found a way to create a thread-like substance similar to Arc all on its own, using dense cubes of conductive metal to keep itself together (notice the red threads). Ruby can pick up on the electric currents in Nick’s brain, allowing him to command the HiveMind without words.

While Nick mostly uses Ruby for his instruments, she can also hack and decrypt various technology, and even move a short distance away from him via floating.
