This page is a stub!
This page is a stub, meaning it is considered too short, incomplete and/or lacking information about the page's subject.
You can help Delta-V by expanding it.

During your time on station you may find yourself face to face (or face to mirror) with the not quite human. Be they aliens, mutated humans, or self aware constructs you're expected to try and coexist on this deathtrap. Learning their quirks can be key to knowing how to keep them amicable in times of peace, and easy to put down in times of strife.

There are currently a bunch of playable specices in Delta-V. Each has their own distinct stats, strengths, and weaknesses.

Every species passively heal BRUTE and HEAT damage over time as long as they have less than a total of 20 damage.

Harpy

An avian humanoid species that features colorful feathered wings and tails that can mimic almost any sound.

They are quite sensitive to the air quality, and when exposed to low quality air, they will begin to visibly gasp, and eventually start choking.
When this happens, a Harpy should either move away from sources of bad air, stand on top of a scrubber for a few seconds, or take a few breaths from a pure oxygen tank in order to restore their blood-oxygen levels. Only three seconds of being on pure oxygen is enough to completely restore a Harpy's blood oxygen saturation.

Diet

  • Can eat raw meat.
  • Will get poisoned by Theobromine (Chocolate, Tea, Coffee) and Allicin (Onion, Garlic).

Benefits

  • Somewhat smaller than Humans, although not as small as Felinids
  • Uses their talons to deal Piercing damage
  • Can imitate around 70% of the game's sound library through a huge list of voice emotes
  • They can "Sing" midis by imitating instruments. Right click yourself to select an instrument
  • Moves 10% faster than other species.

Special

  • Comes with the Ultraviolet Vision trait by default. This can be disabled via accessibility options.
  • Cannot wear Jumpsuits, and will automatically start with a Jumpskirt instead.
  • While singing, musical notes appear floating around their head.

Drawbacks

  • Takes 15% more Blunt, Slash, and Piercing damage
  • Extreme low density, Harpies are lighter than even Felinids, and weigh half as much as a Human.
  • A Harpy breathes in air twice as often as Humans, inhaling and exhaling every 3 seconds.
    • Air tanks last half as long and Harpies are more susceptible than usual to low air quality.
    • If a Harpy is exposed to at least 0.2 moles of combined CO2 and/or Miasma, they start struggling to take in oxygen.

Uncommon Humanoids

Over the course of a shift, you or someone you know may lose their original form, or new life may rise. These races are usually encountered later in the shift. They remain relatively common, but cannot be selected in character creation.
