That face... almost like it's gagging out of the throat.  THAT is how the Inchoroi should look.
was spewed across the stars, was belched through their own bodies >.<

The more I think about it the more I wonder if the Consult wanted some humans nearby to survive.  Maybe to provide them with slaves or rape victims or just to play with in other ways.  What do you guys think?
I think they needed some outskirts of human civilisation to deploy spies earlier and skins-spies later.

Mini-runnaway Aporos explosion caused the anarcane ground. What else could it be ;)
Cishaurim-like water poured onto chorae (a seed to grow a world without sorcery)? :3

But the Aporos might be a special case in that its practitioners were already shunned by the Quya and the study banned.
Somehow I want meta- (or even plain) aporos to be capable of chain reaction which destroys the very possibility of using sorcery. Bakkerverse-wide, I mean. So that's the reason behind cunuroi ban, not because of a certain luddism in mageocratical society, but to preserve the foundations of known universe.

Oh. Maybe that's why Earwa is a promised land? Somewhere sometime someone was aporetic enough to practically geld the universe to sorcery, except one tiny earwan safespot. Or it'a a "natural" cause of evolution in bakkerverse, where intelligence means sorcery and sorcerers eventually sterilize their world in such sense. Putting things that way, to figth with reality, Inchoroi had to traverse through puny worlds which were deprived of any means to make a real impact upon reality.

Yay. I love my sudden crackpot. Mostly because it makes cunuroi the literal saviours of inchoroi, an equal "perversion" of "natural" order of things.

I guess if there is some "real" Anasurimbor that we are waiting for, and its neither Moenghus or Kellhus because they are not, by some miracle, related to Celmomas, than its possible that the prophesy has not been fulfilled, that there is not yet a Harbinger... Still seems extremely convoluted and unlikely.
Actually, I would like  to have another Tolkien moment here, but in Bakker-esque cruel way:

1) Someone from these human kennels of the Arc, which were once filled only by noble Anasurimbor captives or, to make things even worse, only by
(click to show/hide)
2) Mekeretrig who elrondly presents him a repaired Heron spear.
3) A strong desire to restore his ancient dynasty in the north.
4) A mission to save all ensouled beings from damnation.

So, to say it briefly. I want the Inversed Aragorn. :3

Someone with unnatural lifespan and skills.
Someone to dwarf "Boromir"-Kellhus.
Someone to fill that gap left after Cnaiur.

Badass. Consult. General.

Bakker and Tolkien
There is a nice similarity between Fingolfin & Nil'Gicass.
First rode to Angband alone, scaring Melkor's mooks by the way.
Second rode to the north alone, hammering weapon races like roaches.
Both were killed in these lands of their grave enemies.
Both were badass kings & warriors.

The Nonmen magi who are still around aren't more powerful than human sorcerers due to the superiority of their incantations. They are more powerful than human sorcerers because they are themselves physically and mentally superior. They have inhuman stamina, inhuman intelligence, and many lifetimes worth of practice. They're almost always win, but the Quya is the inferior weapon.
There was somethinh bakkerspoken about it.

A question in an interview how a race of madnonmen could still use sorcery, considering their mental disfunction. The answer, as I remember, was about memory migration. Like, Cet'Ingira or Nil'Gicass don't "remember" or "understand" sorcery anymore, but have it as a reflex, much like automatism of breathing or walking.

I suppose that makes every Quya an unbeatable enemy for common gnostic adept and explains why there weren't southern or western "renaissances" of tutelage (Gin’yursis was one of the last cunuroi who could both use & explain his art).

In my quest to draw the Inchoroi, these were the quotes I was able to find describing their physical aspect (taken from TWP and TFS):
Oh, thank you for these. They will help a lot in case of future drafts.

Who's to say they didn't go through an iteration that looks more like yours?   ;)  I imagine they looked different on every world they visited.
Yeah, it was a main point this time; to consider their grafting lifestyle and (bakkerspoken?) aquatic origin. Like an oyster who ascends to fins and tentacles (future wings and members) to rape better & increasingly.

The Horns (again...)
Holy forgess of ssalvation!

Aw, thank you. I wonder if this version contradicts something we know about morphology of our mischievous space oysters.

Finally, I`m done procrastinating. So, first fruits.

lol please explain to me how that works
Much like postponing something nice or tasty! In a world of credit systems and easily accessible (thus short-lived) pleasures one should know how to craft himself a true reward, even if it made of silly deprivation.

I think Xerius is a whole lot smarter than he appears at first glance.
Also, he's the first one in the text who actually pronounces a line, which is a No-God's catchphrase.

Have you read Dune?
No. Herbert & Pratchett are in my "emergency ration" of literature, which should be spend thriftily.
