Don’t mind me, just remaking this ancient thing lmao.


Trying to do things still feels frustrating, but I got this done. Have some fancy glowy eyes lmao. Also, looks best on a dark background/dark theme!


And now I have extra background details! More of an elaboration on what my original revamp concept was based around, mixed with… other things.


Goop - “A viscous form belies a potent psychic corpus.”


Species: Polymorph


Species Home Planet: Viscosia


Omnitrix Placement: Varies, either on the chest-armor centerpiece or helmet forehead. A strange case of the medallion not actually being on the transformation’s body.


Home Planet Information: Less gravity than Earth. Extremely humid and home to a wide variety of plant life, arthropods, and crustaceans, comparable to a whole-planet jungle. Ground mass (and even water and biomass due to the cycling of minerals) is a famous source of magic-reactive minerals. Fauna life often formed of colonial, composite, or symbiotic entities. Home to one of the two Greater Anoderi Colleges—dedicated to the study of Magic and the various scrounged arts of Anodites—created as a joint venture between the Polymorph and Geochelone Aerio races, being the Antebrine Schola as compared to the Addwaitya Schola on Aldabra.


Species Information: With slimy, highly permeable skin and potent magical capabilities all throughout their flexible nervous systems, Polymorphs produce and manipulate large amounts of neuroconductive slime to act as their bodies to interact with the universe around them. This slime, similar in durability and strength to that of Terran hagfish, can be manipulated in a wide variety of ways by the corresponding Polymorph, including thickness, opaqueness, acidity/corrosiveness, and consistency, though the ability can be taken to greater extremes by those with higher psychic adept.


Extra Species Information: Even with the mysterious nature of Anodite-kind, many Polymorphs boast such heritage. The species is notorious for a specific smugness in regards to Magic, which only grew more infamous when Magic was officially recognized as a field of technological study by the Plumbers organization. Seen to have a (friendly) one-sided rivalry with the Geochelone Aerio race over Magical Knowledge, which some compare to that of Cerebrocrustaceans against Galvans in regards to intelligence.


Species Abilities:

- Innate Mana Manipulation/Psychic Powers

- Slime Production and Greater Slime Manipulation

- Acid Production (See Slime Production and Greater Slime Manipulation)

- Lesser Gravity/Weight Manipulation (See Slime and Psychic)

- Evasiveness (True Body able to freely move around slime “body”)

- Lesser Shapeshifting (form/consistency manipulation into spikes, blades, etc.)


Species Weaknesses:

- Fragility (True Body)

- Higher Gravity (manipulating slime in higher gravity is more strenuous, hence anti-gravity/psychoconductive armor)

- Leakage/Dissolving (Slime may leak away into uselessness through things like grates or be dissolved away by water if not paying attention)


Design Background Info:

- The design is mostly the same, mostly just adding some extra flair, trimming other things, and adding detail while drawing him with a slime-folk tail instead of legs.

- While this variant doesn’t use a typical anti-gravity projector device, I wanted to keep some form of UFO imagery. I ended up adding it into the large chest-plate window with a Crop Circle-like glass pattern.

- As you can tell, I wasn’t arsed to create a different species name lmao.

- I got the idea of much of the fauna being colonial/composite from Curious Archive’s video on Polinices

- I decided to work them together with Addwaitya’s/Terraspin’s species because they’re the only other species I could recall doing Magic outside of humans.

- Yes, I am making Anodites that aren’t humanoid/from human gene-stock. Anodites are already weird, okay? We don’t know much about them as-is, I can just imagine other species trying tp figure out Anodites/Magic while the Anodites are all just Zeus'in about lmao.


I hope you like it!
