Maybe that's why he's searching distress beacons with UFOs, in search of his lost pixel treasures?
Dreadwing? He's clearly not against wildly expensive expenditures for no clear reason.
Theories as to who is leaving all these helpful if unusual 3D printer pixel capsules and effect capsules and lost treasure and seemingly random dungeons aroundĭeprecated, as in 1.0 it is blatantly revealed that the Terrene Protectorate orbital-bombards planets with status pods, capsules, and pod chests to aid in future colonization. He merely wants you to know he read the one line description of the WMG, and then suddenly realized it fits. Note, this troper originally wrote this bit before writing the above/rest of the WMG Theory. There are parts that are still for art, but the armor looks as if it is blood thirsty. There is armor for deep sea exploration, and for tending to the hatcheries, sure, but the fact still remains a majority of the armor for the species, is violent in nature. Even if they had a violent past, that doesn't truly contradict with this. Why would a race of pacifists even have battle ready armor? They have what seems to be stealth and infantry style armor, along with ones that their ancestors would wear while riding gigantic fish into battle.
Was just reading this, but holy fishcakes this actually is feasible! I know it sounds insane, but look through the Hylotl Armors.
However, due to being trained, and selected as a missionary for their peaceful ways, the Player will exhibit restraint, and may even manage pure vegetarianism, and pacifism in comparison to other beings exploring space. A species with a violent nature, and aggression as natural, would experience a massive shock, which would explain the Player killing wild animals for sport, or exterminating an entire village. The second they get off world, they are no longer medicated with the solution.
The Player Character Hylotl, a trained monk, is raised in these ways of pacifism, but likely learned survival and combat as an art form.
The Vegetarianism can be explained as the species choosing to subsist on vegetation, and adapting to a new lifestyle, instead of having to hunt and kill, or to slaughter for sustenance. Early on in their history, it is quite likely that The Hylotl nearly drove large groups of Marine Life to extinction, if not having driven them to extinction by the time the solution was created and deemed needed. They have the potential to eat life forms from alien worlds, and nearly anything that has meat. The Player is able to keep down an alien meat steak, which shows they at some point evolved to be omnivores.
The Hylotl does not have much trouble digesting food and things that a carnivore or omnivore would be able to digest.
