Description

(copypasta from tumblr because wow, too lazy to rewrite)
I’m done shittin around with this so it is done. DON’T JUDGE ME I DON’T…… make a lot of finished images and I’m still learning how to get lighting to fuckin work. :’V

So introducing Qélï Üárák, Captain of the Starship Dorado. Now I know what you’re thinking “Why is a fuckin furry in Starfleet,” and I’m gunna tell ya. Because I made this planet you see, with a buttload of species, none of which are humanoid because I’m so bloody tired of humanoids in scifi/fantasy. (You can make LITERALLY ANYTHING and you make a human looking thing- I just? No thank you. lol) In any case, I thought, in my fevered binge of all the Star Trek TV series, “Dude it’d be so cool if Qîélá was unified and part of the Federation.” So my self-indulgent alternate universe storyline came into being. Obviously, Qîélá in this universe has advanced technology and isn’t quite so archaic as depicted in the link, but all the species are still around, if cooperating rather than fighting. (They’d be a lot more advanced if they stopped fuckin’ fighting in the canon Qîélá verse, like, SO MUCH more.)

I got carried away and a lot of the senior staff are Qîélán, which likely wouldn’t actually happen but, like I said, I got carried away. The First Officer is a human though, and, wow, there are a lot of senior staff I hadn’t even thought of- now that I’m looking at the list- so I’ll try to throw in some other species. I want to draw the senior staff at least, but haha, a lot of the species from my planet I haven’t hammered out completely. Which is fine, this just means I have more reason too. (´∀`)

I’m trying to make this alternate universe follow reasonably closely the timeline of the TV series- everything’s basically the same, all the events of TNG, DS9, and VOY still take place, just add some new species fighting with and working for the Federation. As far as Qélï goes she was born in 2345 on Qîélá, but at 14 she did participated in a high school exchange program of sorts to Earth to finish her education and immediately joined Starfleet when she was old enough, having a desire to explore the galaxy. She chose to specialize in exobiology, minoring in xenology with a loose study of the other sciences pertaining to the study of alien worlds. She also enjoys exoanthropology and exoarchaeology, minor hobbies she studies on the side.

She fought in the Dominion War, and five years after distinguishing herself in battle she was promoted to Captain and given a ship an commission of exploration in the Gamma Quadrant (you know the Dominion is quieted down now, so tentative exploration seems likely). I like to think that she ended up in command of a ship during the war by the course of death of higher officers and did a really good job, thus the eventual promotion- something like that anyway. As well as being a wicked smart science lady she also takes no shit in ground combat, as you can see.

I’d like to eventually draw the rest of the senior staff of the Dorado, I already have a name for the First Officer, Commander James Ellison, Earth boy born and raised. The rest of the staff I have tentative ideas for, but James is the only other super-duper concrete dude.

THAT’S ALL I CAN THINK TO SAY SO THAT’S IT FOR NOW ~( ;▽; )~

There is this one species in Star Trek that is an anthro cat, I think they're called the caitian, something like that.
