Allow Me To Introduce You To My Little Guys**STUPID LORE RAMBLE AHEAD**Familiars Are An Original Species

Allow me to introduce you to my little guys **STUPID LORE RAMBLE AHEAD** Familiars are an original species created by me, and honestly I don't care how you use them but I would like them to stay unique to my story lol. Not trying to copyright claim elf-like aliens though since they're pretty basic Familiars are a man-made species created using dark energy, which had traits suitable to sustain life. They were made in a lab and are essentially humanity's little test tube aliens. DNA-wise they are a close cousin of homo sapiens, closer even than apes, although they're related to other animals as well, such as cats.
Familiars are defined by their large, cat-like, expressive eyes and a kind of velvety skin not dissimilar to fur covering their body which is soft to the touch. They also have bat-like ears and sport a tail.
Other than that, they're pretty similar to their creators, and are able to learn, speak, and tend to behave a lot like humans do. They have many carnivorous traits, although they're omnivores, such as sharp teeth and nail-like claws. They tend to prefer meat over other food.
Familiars were created with the purpose of pushing dark energy to its limit, and to harness it for their human peers, as purely organic beings like humans cannot interact with the cosmic energy. Dark energy granted some Familiars with strange, almost superhuman-like powers, but they ultimately failed to meet their creator's goal and were discarded in favor of creatures that were more like machines, the Archangels. The two artificial species eventually teamed up against their captors, which resulted in the supposed extinction of humankind and both becoming the new dominant species on the Earth. But in the end, the Archangels and Familiars were both too different, and they ended up at war as well. Our story takes place on Earth 3,000 years after humans vanished, where the Familiars are divided and leaderless, living in constant fear that the Archangels may one day take back what was once theirs, and stuck on a dying planet.

Sorry for the lack of art y'all, starting school has kept me busy and I just lost a childhood pet so I'm feeling a bit down. I'm mostly working on animations for the time being which means I don't have much to post until they're done ig.
Hey it's my first animation I'm posting here, a wip I've been working on for some time. This is for a sketch map and it features two characters of mine, Felix and Beth. I've been working on it for far too long let it be done please😬


I finished this animated icon for one of my characters today, I went for something a bit different and struggled a little bit lol so it's more wiggly than usual. I've made a few others but will probably post them later. A bit of a teaser for this guy; despite his looks he's actually from the future (2060's or so), which is sorta an ideal retro-futuristic America. His name is Cody Abernathy and he's a biomechanical engineer working for the govt., on something having to do with galactic energy and dark energy-based life forms. Easily paranoid as shown in this gif and begins to believe his own employers and higher ups are planning on getting rid of him, not to mention his issues with a faulty car, supposedly haunted by an old friend seeking revenge beyond the grave for his covering up her murder during said experiments.

Oh here's the reference for my sona thing before I forget. What are they? Uhhhhhh that's a good question
Another animation wip...doing multiple of these at the same time lol I'll make a purely warriors based blog at some point
