Grimalkin are a new species to the galactic stage, having been accidentally uplifted by a unknown race who simply wanted a creature to act as the equivalent to a ship cat (Hence the name Grimalkin). What that race didn't realise was this species was on the cusp of Sapience, something hastened by their new existance on board technology-filled space ships.
Quickly becoming a fully fledged sapient species, Grimalkin were thankfully happy wih their new lot in life, hunting down intruders and space vermin in exchange for a free stay in any space ship and station they see fit by making nests in out of the way places. As part of local shipping regulations it is always advisable to have a properly filled in crew manifest, left the Grimalkin decide to deal with an undocumented ship passenger like a Ship Cats of old!
Don't be fooled by their quadrepedal form, they're as intelligent as any biped (some Grimalkin claim more so) and many of them have become quite at home with the modern comforts technology, fine food and grooming parlours bring!
Features:
- Grimalkin are large fast creatures who can fit in surprisingly small maintinence tubes, and with it are excellent for hunting down dangers and pests around your colony!
- Grimalkin visitors and merchants can make themselves known, some in pairs and others in notable packs!
Feature Wish List:
- In lore Grimalkin paws cannot manipulate technology until they have surgery to make their paw digits more flexible. They also cannot speak until tight vocal chords and losotened to allow such (or a voice collar is worn). Sadly I can't get this working in pure XML yet, and do not know C#.
- Some Grimalkin are very much body purists, considering themselves technically above the bipeds they "look after" and who "serve" them (maintain the ships/stations). Others are very much wishing to adjust their bodies and improve themselves to fit in with the space age. In theory this might become part of an Idology in the future.
I'm not too well versed with mod making so if there are any bugs or I missed something out, please feel free to make a discussion (or even just a comment) and I'll see what I can do about fixing it!
Built upon the Humanoid Alien Races 2.0 mod. Put this mod below it in the mod order list (Should auto-sort). This mod shouldn't conflict with any other mod, if it does please let me know.
