working on species for fantasy city: Arachnoids -refers to a collection of humanoid arachnid like monster species... or as humans call them "walking emotional conflicts" aka "don't know if should kill it with fire, or fuck it senseless?" the city the Arachnoids inhabit is called "The City of Spiders" on maps, but has no local name as it's their only settlement... at least no local name any non arachnid can pronounce. The city itself is built along the walls of a pit like entrance to a massive and deep ancient underground labyrinth that full of old ruins, dungeons, and foul magics that make traversing deeper easier but returning harder.

To this day no one has made it to the bottom, or even know how far deep it goes, thus the origins of the Arachnoids remains a mystery... are they a naturally occurrence or were they created by some

I have put my larger ships on hold to work on a series of small long range Federation Vessels that are specifically designed for deep space long duration missions into areas of hostility, both known and potentially unknown. AKA: Long Patrols. While, little known and certainly not impressively armed, these vessels are the front line warning and response system of the Federation of Planets. Individually they are a mere nuisance to true warships, however their effectiveness increases exponentially when 2 or more confront a target together. The McHale is mearly the first of these vessels, predomently crewed by "misfits" of Star Fleet, who's crew
