Status
Not open for further replies.

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
  • Intent: To create a terrifying species of Rakatan-engineered bio-enforcers to serve as monstrous creatures sealed within Grand Mausoleums across Condoriah for use in narrative and horror-focused storytelling.
  • Image Credit: AI-generated via OpenAI ChatGPT model GPT-4o image generation
  • Canon: N/A
  • Permissions: N/A
  • Links: Rakata - Wookieepedia, Infinite Empire - Wookieepedia

GENERAL INFORMATION
  • Name: Demi-Beasts
  • Designation: Non-sentient
  • Origins: Condoriah, Grand Mausoleums (Rakatan-era containment structures)
  • Average Lifespan: Unknown; unaging while in stasis; confirmed reports of 300+ years if released and reliant upon sustenance.
  • Estimated Population: Rare (entombed in limited numbers across Grand Mausoleums)
  • Description: Demi-Beasts are massive, warped bioforms created through ancient Rakatan genetic manipulation. Standing between 3-5 meters tall, they are built as living engines of destruction, combining brute strength, environmental adaptation, and primal Force instincts. They do not think—they obey hardwired behavior patterns and semi-intelligent combat routines. Each one is unique, but all share a terrifying aura of predatory dominance.

PHYSICAL INFORMATION
  • Breathes: Type I
  • Average Height of Adults: 3.5 - 5 meters
  • Average Length of Adults: N/A
  • Skin color: Varied (ashen gray, pitch black, deep crimson, chitinous bone-white)
  • Hair color: None
  • Distinctions: Demi-Beasts are built like apex predators crossed with war machines. Hardened dermal plating, multi-jointed limbs, external tusks or mandibles, and exposed bio-flesh over armored sinew are common. Some have force-pulse glands that distort energy fields in proximity. All exhibit signs of artificial ritualistic scarring and preservation rites from their Rakatan creators.
  • Races: N/A
  • Force Sensitivity: Standard (many exhibit rudimentary instinctual Force behavior: tracking, fear-induction, energy disruption)
Strengths:
  • Brutally powerful and highly resistant to conventional blaster and melee damage
  • Possess innate predatory cunning and semi-programmed combat patterns from Rakatan bio-logic

Weaknesses:
  • Non-sentient; cannot adapt beyond pre-programmed behavior
  • Psychically unstable when far from Grand Mausoleum influence—risk of degeneration or frenzy

CULTURE
  • Diet: Carnivorous; require fresh organic matter to remain stable once active
  • Communication: Limited; growls, subsonic pulses, and body language
  • Technology level: None; tools and weapons are biological or cybernetic grafts
  • Religion/Beliefs: N/A, but worshipped as demonic gods in some Condorian fringe cultures
  • General behavior: Solitary hunters; do not tolerate each other in proximity; triggered by proximity to Force Users or strong emotional fields. Often reactivate in defense of the Tower of the Covenant or similar Rakatan sites.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Demi-Beasts were created by Rakatan biotechnicians at the height of the Infinite Empire to serve as enforcers, temple guardians, and siege beasts on subjugated worlds. On Condoriah, they were placed in deep stasis beneath shrines and Mausoleums—ritually bound and encoded to the Tower of the Covenant's command pulses. When the Rakata fell, many remained sealed, their containment facilities misunderstood or feared by native cultures.

In 902 ABY, with the Tower reactivated and the veil thinning, some Mausoleums have begun to stir. Demi-Beasts, thought to be myth, now rise again—not as masters of fate, but as the nightmares of a forgotten empire unleashed once more.

Hello!

I will be taking care of your submission today. I have a number of items that need to be covered before we move to approval:
  • Please add a link to the OpenAI web page in the "Image Credit" category.
  • Please move the "Estimated Population" and "Description" categories out from the "Average Lifespan" category and place them in their own bullet point categories below it, as formatted in the template.
  • In accordance with Codex rules, "no character or species may be immortal". I need you to remove the reference to functional immortality in the "Average Lifespan" category. You may replace this with a clarification stating that they are unaging while in stasis, or a similar explanation.
Tag me once these items are complete or if you have any questions.

Thank you!
