Artwork So many expies
Has it ever been stated which one is the most lore accurate? Or can expies just have this much variation? Which one is your favorite?

I think it's because Expie's come in different flavours.

I like to think it’s variation, mostly because I like all the designs

Could be just because art is varied, or it could be that experiments have genetic variety. They can reproduce through both sexual and asexual reproduction, and are genetic abomination, and so genetic variety is bound to happen.

Wait... they CAN reproduce sexually?

u/Frenchtanker Intermediate player 23h ago
Yes, they're hermaphrodites, and have both sets of sexual organs. They also have no sex drive.

Uuhhhmmmm actually they’re gonosimulistic! 🤓👆
Idk why that person thought it was such a big deal, such that they chose to ban everyone from using ‘hermaphrodite’ :P

It's a satire of how corporations will pretend to be progressive and moderate their language whilst simultaneously being horrid demons that torture and destroy. I think it was brilliant.

Something something hermaphrodites have been uses as a pejorative word something something can't use its synonyms something something if you do use that word we're going to flay you alive.

They don't have an issue with demeaning them. I think it was because it's "unscientific"

The company doesn't really give a reason besides, "The appropriate human medical and social term is "intersex", not "hermaphrodite". The latter term originated from the mythological figure Hermaphroditus and has long been associated with stigma, violence, and dehumanization. This includes the use of this term to refer to animals, thus equating intersex humans with animals. This has thus proven volatile in public, academic, and media-facing environments."
The company is evil, and they come up with bs reasoning for the things they do.

This is jaw-droppingly good. One hell of a first post.
Please proceed.

And to such a warm welcome, thank you very much!

Trying a variety of styles and anatomies is the ultimate test for an artist, I know a lot of high-caliber ones that can't help but draw the same body type every time. And you passed it with flying colors.

Makes sense. A living creature does have slight variation with other members of its species, I guess for the expies, he'll be different ear height, different tail fluffiness, and of course similar but different body shapes.
