Outdated Ethereals 3-10-2014

A colorful, unique race of wandering nomads.

    Announcement (5/3/2015): 'sup guys? I know I completely abandoned this mod for a while but I have considered returning to work on it. Perhaps when this school semester is over and I have actual free time at my disposal I'll do something. I dunno yet. In the time I've been away I've had several new mod ideas for Starbound, especially considering the past recent updates. I don't wanna get anyone's hopes up if something does come up, but just know I'm thinking about it. Your patience is appreciated. : )

    ----

    I have a thread dedicated to this race. Please read it if you have questions on the race itself.

    "Ethereals are humanoid creatures with pale skin, brightly-colored eyes, and feral features. Individuals of this race are highly unique, and their appearances vary greatly. They are valued for their high-functioning thought process, but feared for their unpredictable behavior. Their culture closely represents that of the Romani nomads of Earth. Ethereals are known to be expressive, artistic, influential, and very adaptable. They are clever and can detect when others are trying to deceive them. Nowadays, Ethereals integrate into other cultures, but tend to favor their racial traditions regardless."

    By far my favorite race mod. Their design is beautiful and colorful. They even have an interesting story and theme explaining their place in the universe of Starbound. They genuinely feel like something I would expect to find in this game. Ever since I found them a few months back they have become my primary. The one thing to keep in mind is that since their head has different dimensions than other races, some helmets and hats can look kind of funny, but to me it sort of adds to the charm of them being a sort of quirky playful race. There's a lot of room to grow and expand so I am eagerly looking forward to when Horus has time to develop more race-specific content for them.

    I've definitely been waiting for a race like this. it means I can have my dragon character in starbound now (She has the same qualities) Although one complaint I have is the eyes. It's rather hard to get immersed due to how it looks compared to the official art for them. I'm not sure how a fix would work, maybe showing both eyes or maybe I'm just nitpicky. Regardless it's an excelent racial mod and I'll deffinatly use/keep an eye on it. (Maybe editing some of the hair types might help as well. Just as an after thought)

      I said in a previous comment that giving them two eyes just messes up their pixelized facial structure. I've tried believe me, haha.
