New drawing is of an ambassador from a civilization of the species known as the imikti (Mimos rapidus). The forms of imikti are constantly changing to match and adapt to their environments, and the imikti have a supernatural ability to copy any structure (animate or inanimate) they spend enough time around. As an ambassador, this imikti has taken on characteristics of several other species.

New drawing is of a member of the species known as the akskrrga (Akeskergum akeskergum). The akskrrga exhibit severe sexual dimorphism, and the two sexes of the species fuse together in a manner not unlike that of some anglerfish. It is only when fused together than a kskrrga obtains a level of consciousness and sentience/sapience/sophonce equal to that of a human being.

New drawing is of a member of the species known as the primers (Antiquus numerus). Life on the primer homeworld evolved in a subsurface ocean of hydrogen - in the transition zone from liquid hydrogen to metallic hydrogen - and is made from nitrogen–ammonia crystals.

Living near absolute zero, life on the primer homeworld is extremely slow compared to life on Earth. Primers think, speak, act, move, etc. roughly 12,000 times slower than human beings. Their species first emerged three billion years ago, and yet as of 5334 AD they are roughly equal to humans in technological development.

for some reason the preview sometimes shows the new drawing and sometimes doesn't so for clarification the new drawing is the purple creature at the top of the page

While there are many exceptions, spacer cultures often place emphasis on the spacers' supposed "superiority" over the other human species. Other species are quick to remind the spacers that they can't even set foot on a planet without collapsing under its gravity.

honestly i might have to move spacers to a different genus than Homo (still considered a human species though) cuz this fellow diverged more and more as i drew them

Goblins have bodies built for living on hot, humid worlds, often residing in environments such as swamps and jungles. They are known for their incredibly wrinkly skin, an adaptation intended to increase their skin's surface area, allowing them to shed heat faster.
New drawing is of the angel Saint Wolfskull (they are not recognized as a saint by any Christian denomination nor descendant of Christianity, that's just their name) (by the year 5334 AD many of the religions descended from Christianity are more popular than Christianity itself). Angels care not for biology, and from a human perspective they seem to care not for physics either.
"Angel", appears to be a much broader term in the Rakhasim setting than it is in the IRL western world, referring to things we might call angels, demons, gods/deities, spirits, fairies/fae, yōkai, yāoguài, etc. though these are actually all one "species", sharing a common ancestor by various means.
very nice appels
