Xenotypes of XCOM - Sectoid

Description
The Sectoids have landed on this RimWorld! The decision is yours: will you hunt them relentlessly until they are extinct, welcome them into your colony, or establish a grand Sectoid Hive? The choice rests in your hands.

The sectoid species, renowned through the now defunct Ethereal Empire and its reborn manifestation, the Elder Empire, as well as the powerful Zudjari Empire, have arrived on this planet. Among them, some seek to assimilate into the local populace, while others endeavor to establish their own sectoid hive. Unfortunately, a handful of hostile sectoids resort to attacking any intelligent being they encounter, driven by a fervent desire to cleanse the world for the benefit of their own kind.----------------------------------

New Xenotypes:
  • The Xyrax Sectoids are a slender, pale yellow-skinned alien species with a distinct round head, big black eyes, and longer fingers. They possess super-sensitive psychic abilities but have a frail stomach and are sterile. Their green slime blood and unique appearance make them intriguing creatures from another world.

  • The Zephyr Sectoids are small, delicate aliens with elongated heads and big, red, human-like eyes. They have green slime blood, slightly longer fingers, and are sensitive to psychic energies. With a frail stomach and sterility, they navigate their unique existence with curiosity and fragility.

  • The Vorix Sectoids are small, delicate aliens with rough head shapes, round red eyes, and slate gray skin. They possess innate psychic abilities, fragile stomachs, and green slime blood. Their delicate nature and super sensitivity to psychic energies make them enigmatic beings in the alien world.

  • The Hybrid Sectoids have a unique mix of Zephyr, Vorix, and human features in their heads. With big black eyes, green slime blood, and slightly longer fingers, they possess exceptional psychic sensitivity. Despite their intriguing traits, they are sterile, adding to their enigmatic existence as aliens.

Recommended Mods:
  • Sovereign's Alien Invader genes - XCOM-inspired mod that adds new head types, voices, and genes based on the Sectoids. It complements and contrasts seamlessly with my mod, as both are centered around XCOM's Sectoids. My Sectoid Xenotypes automatically get the Offworld and Alien fingers genes once Alien Invader genes is activated.

Credits:
  • 2K Games, Mythos Games, MicroProse and Firaxis Games, for their outstanding contributions in creating the XCOM games, crafting the captivating universe, and bringing to life everything it encompasses. Their dedication and creative prowess have shaped an iconic franchise that continues to captivate and thrill players worldwide.

  • Sovereign for their exceptional creation of the Alien Invader Genes mod, which served as the inspiration for the development of this mod.

  • Rooboid and Zelan for their Minotaur Xenotype Mod which I used to learn what I needed to create this mod here.

  • Reddit User u/AnAnomalousWriter for their incredible Neon XCOM Wallpaper, which adds a captivating visual touch to the thumbnail background in this mod.

Please consider supporting me on KoFi as it helps me allocate more time to my projects, significantly improving the longevity and likelihood of completion for these mods and future endeavors.

Hello! Just wanted to let you know that I included this mod in my Aesthetic Eyes , so that the eyes for the Zephyr and Vorix xenotypes have eyes that are unaffected by the skin tone. So if you have my mod with yours, their eyes will appear brighter!

Likely, yes.

@Sovereign If both our mods are active now, my Xenotypes get the Offworld and Alien Fingers genes

Well, I'll see what I can do, but thanks for the answer. Definitely excited to see how things could go, if you are able to continue modding.
