  Partisan Immortal Mini Mech

  Here's an Immortal, a mini mech piloted by a yinrih in metabolic suspension. It's more or less a Dreadnought from WH40K, except replace "warrior preserved at the brink of death" to "Addict stuck in a lotus-eater machine".

  @tbpo Hi! Not sure how long this will stay up. Not many people seem interested. I don't intend to replace the CBB; I wanted somewhere on the Fediverse to talk about conworlding/conlanging.

  Yinrih are arboreal animals. Their limbs are built to pull their weight against gravity and are naturally dense with musculature. This is a trait made obvious with healers since they have no fur.

  The surface-dwellers of Sweetwater tend to have more body fat than other yinrih, an adaptation to their marine environment that allows them to swim more easily. This makes them more prone to obesity, especially when living off-world.

  Calmwind, the IT admin from one of my stories, is either a Sweetwater immigrant or a descendent of the same, partially explaining his stoutness. IT, especially medical IT, can be stressful work, and he may be self-medicating with food.

  Introduction Thread

  Welcome to Constructed World

  This is a place on the fediverse to discuss topics related to worldbuilding and conlanging. Feel free to reply to this thread to introduce yourself. If you have a conlang or worldbuilding project you'd like to share, feel free to make a post about it. For now, everything goes in the miscellaneous category. Tag your posts so people can find them. Try to use a preexisting tag, but you may create your own if none of the existing tags fit.

  As for me, I've been conworlding since the late 90s and conlanging since 2002. Until recently I was toiling away in isolation, largely ignorant of the wider conlanging community, and unaware that others engaged in worldbuilding for its own sake rather than for a book or game. Finding fellow conlangers and conworlders on the internet has been an eye-opening experience.
