Introduction to the Nokturne "Hello? Is someone there?" "If you're there, say something. Show yourself." And so the Nokturne are formed. A natural phenomenon, they are created when extreme stress from an individual from any race is concentrated and formed into a humanoid being. As this is quite rare, the numbers of Nokturne in the universe are few and scattered. But, as of late, brilliant scientists of the age have developed technology to manually "create" their own Nokturne. This has let the Nokturne flourish, letting them become a race themselves. The sole purpose of a Nokturne is to protect and help those who create them, though they give no service to those that create them via technology. When the individual the Nokturne is "linked" to dies, they can either be freed, or passed down the the next generation of that individual. Some Nokturne have been around for centuries, even millenia, wandering the universe or serving their masters. Though they seem immortal from the information above, they are not. They can be hurt, and can also be killed. Considering the fact that they are beings of pure stress, they are generally affiliated with darkness, and so are vulnerable to weapons that emit concentrated light. They are extremely strong, but not to the point of destroying a continent. Tech and Weaponry Considering the circumstances under which they are formed, Nokturne tech can be anything, from stones, slings and spears, guns, swords and cannons, to even Spaceships, Interstellar cannons and lasers! As for their own weaponry, they have a wide range of weapons they can handle, though larger weapons will make them slower, so they'd be easier to kill. About the Nokturne This is the common Nokturne. I have highlighted the border so it can be easily seen. They have a mouth and a larger eye in their lower torsos. They can wear armor, but only those of a humanoid shape. This is a Red Nokturne. It is uncommon, though it is still the same as the common Nokturne. It is referred to as the Rage Nokturne. Other Nokturne have been discovered, though the colour range is only dark colours, although there HAVE been fleeting sights of what seems to be a white Nokturne. As they Nokturne normally are serving their masters, a few Nokturne have created societies scattered around the universe which are used as a sort of "meeting place". The Nokturne who gather here are normally freed Nokturne, and these societies are never big. But, there is a Nokturne civilization, comprised of many societies that accumulated over time. History The Good Helped many generations, protected them from potential killers. Became a sort of an to different races, who then created peace treaties. Were able to stop many wars, and avoid creating them in the first place. Learnt to use past technology through ancient Nokturne. Helped entire civilizations. The Bad Killed many people because they tried to kill their masters, or while serving their masters. Were used as Juggernauts in wars, which were "ace cards" that could end a war, with the other side losing. Caused many wars, as they would be the center of them. Learnt to kill people with different methods through ancient Nokturne. Wiped out entire civilizations. Invaded and enslaved entire civilizations. Hostility They are generally impartial to strangers, unless they feel that the person wants to kill their master. In that case, Nokturne become aggravated and extremely wary of this person/s. If the person they meet happens to be a friend of their master, they would treat them as a friend would.
Any suggestions or criticism? I'll be glad to hear both, as long as they can improve this suggestion.
I dont see any necessary changes. You wouldn't have the energy attacks though, for the sake of the "no racial abilities" declaration.
sounds cool, but you might want to beef it up, don't just tell the general stuff about them; talk about their society, their weapons, their big good and bad things.
Got it. Well... Sure, I guess. I kinda figured that would happen. Too bad I was asleep. Well... Ok, got it. Thanks guys.
