the documents are a WIP because I wanted to post the art first and I knew if I waited to write everything, this would take me a long time. I'll update the title (for this project and the one on my main) with whoever's doc I finish, so check for that :). Since this does not include every single Katokin we have planned, I'll also add those once we've finished them. vvv I will also list here what I changed vvv ---------- 9/4/25: Silkstar bio added ---------- ! FULL SCREEN RECOMMENDED ! (the text is very small to fit the sheer amount of information there is for each species) Though if you are just here to see the art, then good for you :) Space, arrow keys, and left and right bars on the screen to navigate Hover over the tab to open and close the folder for the species you have selected ---------- since Kencoshi, Archalo, and Marrowqita are all subspecies, so here's their general species info Species: Rangana (Rahn-gah-nah) Appearance - Made completely out of paint, condensed to become solid and able to function like a normal body. Colors - Genetically inherited, unless one were to be turned into one, which will leave it to chance. Can have 1-3 different colors, 1 and 2 being more common, depending on the parents’ genotypes. Darker colors show up more often than lighter colors, as they are dominant. Dark and light colors can only coexist if the recessive genotype for codominance (separate gene) is present. Bright colors can coexist with any other color. If 1 color is present, the species’s version of a skull defaults based on the brightness of the color: white if the head color is dark, black if the head color is bright or light. Some parts of the skull, depending on the species, are tinted the eye color. Heterochromia is uncommon but not rare. If 2 colors are present, one color (randomly selected) covers the head, chest, arms, and half of the wingspan (if Archalo). The second color covers the waist, back legs, tail, and other half of the wingspan (if archalo). Heterochromia is rare in this case but possible. If 3 colors are present, the first color covers the head, most of the chest, and forearms. The second color covers the rest of the arms, half of the wingspan (if Archalo), the waist, and some of the upper half of the back legs. The third color covers the rest of the back legs, hips, tail, and other half of the wingspan. Heterochromia is impossible. Is ALWAYS different from EVERY body color, excluding 3rd (back) color if 3 colors are present. The patterns near the eyes are unique but tend to look similar between family members. All parts of the mouth, face patterns, and paw pads are the same hue as the eyes. Color inheritance (Common - 70%) Red, orange, yellow, green, azure blue, purple. Rare (20%) Brown, lime, turquoise, cyan, indigo, pink. Super rare (10%) Grayscale. Legendary (0.01%) Rainbow (if present then no other colors can be), black. Location - Art Room Job - Painters / Artists Behavior - Protect and care for other Rangana like family. Typically stay in groups of 3-10 Abilities - Small amounts of paint on the paw tips, paw pads, and tail and be expelled on command to paint with. Bleed paint of eye color (if heterochromia, mix of both. Either codominance or incomplete dominance). Don’t have noses, can’t smell.
Katokins are species of anthropomorphic animals created by an organization of which has not disclosed its name. They were created to one day replace the working class and help the organization become unstoppable in its malicious schemes. Each species of Katokin has its own purpose, but because of the organization's method of initially creating them, everything went to heck and the facility in which the Katokins were living in became a fight for survival. ---------- The Katokins drawn aren't specific OCs but rather what the average Katokin of that species would look like. (btw if you want a specific Katokin species to get its bio sooner than others, I'll make sure to get that one done first) ---------- credits to @ThatMushroom for helping with some of these goobers! music - Aftermath by Caravan Palace All of these species are completely open to make OCs of, and is highly encouraged (you will have to credit me for the original species)! Though if you are going to use them for any comics, fics, or other stories, ask me first. Toxibot is not included for this, because he is not from a particular species and he is the only one in existence, however it's still okay to make OCs inspired by him. ---------- If you have any questions about any of the Katokins, or about the world they live in, don't hesitate to ask me :D (this includes stuff I haven't written because I already know most of what I wanna write, so I can give you short summaries if you want)! I'd be more than happy to answer! Unless of course...spoilers... Also, if you have any suggestions for species ideas, PLEASE I WANNA KNOW I LOVE HEARING WHAT YALL CAN COME UP WITH!!!!!! If I like it enough, I'll add it, or make a Katokin inspired by it, and credit you for the original idea :DD. There aren't many limits for what would work, just like, no overpowered entites or stuff that's too similar to something that already exists (parallels to preexisting Katokins are cool though! Like regional pokemon)
