You arouse conflicting emotions in me since I normally don’t like mangas of any kind – but I love your creations! Even the story sounds very compelling – how is that possible. That’s very confusing for me…

Nice group. Is their purpose Peacekeeping?Thanks! And no, they are a independently working group of intergalactic bounty hunters. Peacemaker is the name of their ship – which is a tribute to the Colt Single Action Army Revolver as well as the aircraft Convair B-36.
Peace Squad #6 is a good name if you include that the first five didn’t survive and their numbers were retired out of respect for their service.
Nice idea, but I’m looking for something really badass sounding. Like “The Rippers” but maybe a bit more space-related? I guess I do not really know exactly what I’m looking for, but when I found it, I’ll know it. Does that sound logical? Hmmm …
It’s always more interesting to me when a group runs out of their original purpose than when a group needlessly tussles over the beginning.
Hmm, I might pick up the underlying idea of that. I could make them a group of former peacekeepers living on the outskirts of society and working as bounty hunters and soldiers of fortune, while on the run from the authorities after being branded as criminals for a “crime they didn’t commit”. Basically, a kind of “A-Team” meets “Firefly” and more dirty version of “Star Trek”.

Manbot is outstanding!Thank you! He really stands quite out in that group, doesn’t he?
Before I proceed to a different (and yet somehow related) subject, I give you a team of intergalactic bounty hunters. I can’t think of a cool badass sounding name for them at the moment, so suggestions would be more than welcome.

Cool! So what now? Does that mean we get two head(gear) thingies for the price of one since the poll wasn’t over yet?! Heh heh…
Wow – that looks great! Looks a little bit like Casey Jones had an upgrade after losing his left arm in battle…
Awesome! I’ve always wondered what he does the rest of the year. And now I also know what he does with his list of good and bad people besides of sorting out which kids he can stalk.
Hmm, when I think about it – I bet he gets the list from NSA …
Well, here’s the rest of the “new” Harvesters:
THE TO’AN:
Headshot:
The To’an are a humanoid species that communicates telepathic and has the abilty to turn invisible as well as immaterial at will. Only very few and very spritual people are able to sense the To’an’s presence and so they walk undetected amongst the natives of soon to be invaded planets to determine their level of technological progress and to study their way of living.
THE TK’LK:
Headshot:
The Tk’lk (which simply means “the swarm”) are an insectoid species with a hive mind and mostly a very basic intelligence that is often reduced to their primitive instincts. Their much smarter queen (see image above) has not only the ability to mentally control any member of her hive but is also capable to manipulate the DNA of her brood for various purposes. This way she can produce the perfect specimen for each specific task. (Examples will follow…)
Here’s a size comparison of the Harvester’s triarchy:
The exact origin of the the CROA’TO’AN – wich can be translated as “Those who harvest worlds”- is unknown, but it is known that the Croa and the To’an come from the same planet which they devastated thousands of years ago in a relentless war against each other, before the fight for survival on their now uninhabitable world finally united the former opponents.Once united, they managed to build huge biotechnological spaceships that enabled them to escape their dying world and make the search for a new home. But one thing they could not escape: their martial nature. So it was only natural for them to pounce on the first habitable planet they found like a swarm of locusts and exploit its resources – as usual without paying attention to the consequences of their actions.
Of course they also cared very little that this world was already inhabited by another species. The contrary, they soon realized that this insectoid race could be useful to them and so they enslaved the Tk’lk and over the centuries they have been integrated as a working class in their new form of society.
Since that time, the Harvester homeless roam the universe looking for new worlds, which they can conquer and cannibalize.
