Headaches

I finally sat down and built the body for a design of an alien head I created years ago. I present you the mantipod:


NECRONOM LEXICON

--Mantipod Alien--
This predatory lifeform is sometimes found after hatching in freight areas of deepspace cargo ships. It is currently unknown where it was discovered, but it has been confirmed that humans have transported them to various planets accidently where they quickly adepted to the local environment. This shows their extremly intelligent nature, they adjust to new prey very quickly and are generally classified as highly dangerous.
While the creature posseses a basic pair of eyes for short sight, it mostly experiences its environment by vibrations that can be felt by its extremly sensitive legs. The behaviour of a mantipod can only be descriped as extremly agressive, as they quickly attack and kill anything that comes closeby, in many cases even their own kind. When they spot another lifeform they send out pheromones to mark their prey. After that they will hunt it down mercilessly, attacking with their sharp teeth and their venomous stingers, which paralyze the victim instantly.
Rarely do crew or passangers of a space vessel survive an encounter with this creature, which is precisely why their eggs fetch for incrredible amounts of money on the blackmarket as rivaling syndicates have started using them to get rid of unwanted competition.

As always check it out in the necronom store.

Roleplaying guide

Yesterday I have released a guide that sums up a basic behaviour codex for roleplaying on the station. It contains a set of rules on what to do to NOT step on other peoples toes and thats its whole purpose. People have shown to increasingly ignore others space and I think it was more then necessary to release a guideline on what's okay and when.
It is meant to be the general standard, so when someone does not follow it you have this guide to point at and tell them they are breaking the norm.
It is not meant to be instructions on what stories to RP, how to make your character, etc, because I still firmly believe that it's important to leave the door open for imagination and creativity, it is only a guide on how to respect other people and merely common sense, of which I have noticed a dramatic lack in recent days.
To read the guie, check out this thread I've prepared.
