About my Fursonna

My Species:

'Noumenon Drake' Nudrake(slang)

My Fursonna Described:

The epitome of Noumenon physiology. He stands at 10 feet tall, and weighing in at 340 pounds of muscle, bone, and scale. His sleek but dull black scales interrupted only by the ivory-colored underbelly and spinal scales. The large spinal scales, carapace like in protectiveness, sport long, white back-swept spines. The long, muscled crocodilan tail implying him to be a strong swimmer, while his ash-colored wings, large and wide as they are, imply that he would be capable of flying while weighted down easily.

He always wears a 'Remember Kythin 2' locket with a weathered(possibly partially burnt) picture of another Noumenon inside. In addition, he generally wears a black labcoat (a shoulder-buttoned 'Howie Coat') .

My Homeworld:

Noumenon Prime

My Homeworld Described:

Noumenon prime is the single most well guarded planet in Noumenon space. Few outside of the native drakes have set foot on the soil. The Planet itself is well preserved. the land is almost pristine wilderness in comparison to many races' homeworlds. the Noumenon have moved the majority of their race to the stars, with only a fraction left behind to maintain the few cities left. While there are few cities, all of them house great repositories of knowledge. Archives, both digital and physical, sometimes towering into the skies as testament to their insatiable desire for knowledge. The largest archive present is called the 'Eye of the Wise', and is secretly the Noumenon's only space colony capable of utilizing a Space-Folding FTL drive. Currently the Eye is in geosynchronous orbit above the planet's orbital elevator.

Many NuDrakes find the paths of science and introspection to be of second nature, but the bloody war against their expansionist Ettin neighbor proved they weren't pushovers. When the Ettins stole three planets(Kythin 2, Bugis 4 and 5) and killed the protesting Nudrakes, the Noumenon struck back with unheard of speed and brutality using weapons no one had suspected the seemingly peaceful Nudrakes of having. Causing ample bloodshed and brutal holocausts, they never accepted the surrender of the Ettin people. In the end, while they had lost 3 planets to the invaders, they turned the tides and proceeded with a scorched-earth policy that left the sector in shock of such cutthroat behavior. Currently it is believed there are less then fifty thousand Ettins left alive, and there are rumors of Nudrake hit squads that continue to reduce the numbers to this day. However, the warship flotilla has returned to Noumenon Prime and the race has resumed a peaceful life.
