Greetings everyone! I just discovered this game and expect much enjoyment from it, especially if scenarios can be created. I am not a good moder myself, so will seek advice.
I have always wanted to play with the cat-like people of the Hani from author C.K. Cherryh or Thundarians.
Thundarians, from the cat-like cartoon series Thundercats. With the Thundercat logo used. I wish to blend this scnario with these races from author Cherryh's Pride of Chanur series:
The races forming the Compact
Mahendo'sat
Mahendo'sat (singular mahe), black or brown primate-like creatures, human-size, very curious and political. The Mahendo'sat political system is based on the concept of Personage, a charismatic figure with a lot of social credit; a Personage's power is determined by the number of its followers, but a supporter can either weaken or strengthen its Personage, depending on whether its actions in its Personage's name prove to be beneficial or not. To an outsider, this can (and frequently does) look like a Personage's mahen agents are promoting mutually contradictory policies at the same time. Mahendo'sat are idiosyncratically bad at learning other species' languages, many of them can't even master the pidgin used by Compact spacers, although they are quite eloquent in their own numerous languages. Mahendo'sat are the "glue" of the Compact, always trying to maintain the balance of power so peace can be kept and no race dominates. They are in constant search of new powers, recently including humans. Homeworld: Iji.
Stsho
Stsho, minute, fragile, crested white beings (even their eyes are pearly white), xenophobic and non-aggressive. Stsho rely on wealth, trade, and alliances to keep their independence; they have devised the trade and legal procedures of the Compact. They prefer delicate pleasures and pastel colors, their speech is exceedingly ceremonial and politically correct; they do not fight themselves and their personalities are prone to change ("Phase") under stress, which has many legal implications. They have three sexes, which can change with Phasing, and only one of which deals with other aliens. They permit no other oxygen-breathing races in their territory. Homeworld: Llyene.
Tc'a-Chi
Tc'a, methane-breathing yellow five-eyed snakelike beings, and chi, yellow arthropod-like creatures, which are related in a way none of oxygen breathers understand (presumably symbiotic). They are very technologically advanced and powerful; understanding them is tricky at best though, since their brains are multi-part and their speech decodes as complex matrices of intertwined meanings. They run the methane side of most space stations.
Kif
Kif, bare-skinned, ash-black, long-snouted bipedal hunters. They are the tallest race in the Compact, slender, fast and deadly. They are strict predators, requiring live prey; they have twin set of teeth, outer for biting and inner for chewing, and retractable claws. Their social and political [dis]organization revolves about a quality called sfik, which is face, authority, ferociousness - a kif that loses sfik is instantly demoted, and the followers either defect or just kill it. Sfik is gained through victory in combat, or possession of something of value, or just the respect of others: followers with strong sfik give more sfik to their leader. A side effect is that the kif are prone to change sides in a conflict at the first sign of weakness in their leader. They seem to have no other moral values; they are pirates and cannibals, and generally deemed troublesome. Occasionally, a strong leader gains enough sfik to command a whole fleet of ships; such a kif is called a hakkikt and are considered to be major annoyances to the mahendo'sat, who view hakkiktun as destabilizing factors. Kif are very linguistically apt and adaptable. Homeworld: Akkht.
Hani, these would also double as the Thundarians of Thundar.
Hani, feline-like race, maned, bearded, usually of red or tawny fur. Females are smaller than human size, males much larger. They were discovered by the mahendo'sat and helped into space; most of their technology is mahen style. They live in autonomous clans, which are united into amphictionies for control of scarce resources; the biggest one is their homeworld itself, governed by a mahen-inspired council of clans called the han. Each clan consists of related females, juveniles, and a single male - a male takes over a clan by defeating the previous lord in personal combat. Most males aren't that lucky, living and dying in exile. Only females go into space (until Pyanfar Chanur changes the rules). Hani politics are tradition-bound, based on such concepts as allegiance, honor, blood feud, parole, and such. One of the hani languages served as the base for the Compact's pidgin, because it was grammatically and phonetically easy for other races (but not as easy for humans.) Homeworld: Anuurn.
Might anyone be able to assist me with this? Create a cat-like people in look very close to the Thundercats? And using the Thundercat symbol? I would wish for a male and female image.
