Dreamed Earth was invaded by strange 7′ tall beings with huge gorilla-like arms supporting atrophied bodies that dangled between their shoulders, long toes acting as hands that clutched yellow protein-globes and shoved them into the grotesque facial features sunken into their torsos.

If you needed an excuse to join the xenoglyph Patreon, it’s the freewheeling, creative, supportive, kind discussion on xenophilia, my Discord. We talk about aliens, artificial intelligence, educational techniques, roleplaying games, architecture, and our favorite impractical aircraft.
