Description
Artek (AHR tek)
Allegiance: Aquillan
The Artek are reptilian humanoids from the desert planet Dach’Pan in the Seli star system, 3848 LY from Earth. They are a noble people, amongst the most renowned of geneticists, scientists, architects, starship builders, and even magus. (Although they believe science has led them to this ability, and not the chaos of the Ovmörtacian Breach.) Heritage and racial customs are revered with pride. Perfection of self and a strong lineage are of paramount importance. All these things lead to a supremely superior attitude among most Artek.Male: 5’6”, 130lbs. Females: 5’0”, 100lbs.

Great species! Each of them seems to have unique skin markings, like a finger print (:
What is the Ovmörtacian Breach?

Thanks for the comment!
An article in the ‘New London Times’ on the 30 year anniversary of The Ovmörtacian Breach:
Near midnight, Universal Time, on 24 September, 2190 by the Terran standard calendar, an event happened that would forever change the known Galaxy. Scientists in London on Earth were experimenting with a “Strange Particle Collider” in expectation of creating a reliable Matter Transmission Apparatus. After a monstrous power surge during one test, the entire central hub of the facility, a sphere a hundred feet in diameter, imploded into a luminous infinitesimal point of super-dense quasi-matter. Dozens of scientist and technicians vanished along with the section of building. Nobody was left who could explain what had happened. Every energy driven mechanical device in known space shut down and then rebooted.
Odd things began to happen almost immediately; an elephant in a zoo a thousand miles away became a solid mass of gorgonzola. A dozen light-years away, all the technology on the Terran colony world Byrsellus ceased to function, where still to this day, technology does not work! Fairy-like creatures were reported suddenly in the forests of dozens of earth-like worlds. In fact, many of the monsters of legend; vampires, werewolves, zombies, and on every world, numberless paranormal creatures have made an appearance.
The effects seemed to be completely random. All of the chaotic events were traced back to the moment of the implosion. People and things that approached the implosion point, which came to be called “The Breach”, suffered the most wildly random effects: one man regressed back to infancy in a matter of seconds; a robot probe metamorphosed into glass and then shattered on the floor. The only thing people could say was that the effects were like magic.
Certain of the more gifted of the races discovered the ability to use this new force of magick as a tool, and as a weapon. The first ones seem to be the most faithful of the varied religions. They have discovered they can perform “miracles” through incantations or prayers from within the doctrines of their respective beliefs. Others have discovered that a more “scientific” approach could be used to utilize magick in the form of mathematically formulated evocations. What the future holds next is anyone’s guess…
Recently, a dusky-skinned, elfish emissary of the Ovmörtacian people appeared near The Breach. He explained that it was his dimension that had been breached, and that physics operated less logically in his universe than they do in ours. The true magick of his realm was flowing into ours, and there was nothing either universe could do to stop it. His universe would become more logical, and ours less so.

Actually I have another one now^^ I saw that you characters belong to a book you are writing and that it's almost done. Do you have a publisher already? Or are you going to post the chapters here on dA?

Once I have all the art done, we're going to try to publish online through Amazon and Drive Thru RPG in a downloadable format. I priced out getting actual hard copy books made, and it's way out of my price range to do. I added in some book excerpts here. gorga.deviantart.com/gallery/5…
