My half human/mesakkah oc's. Their siblings! They live on a ship and travel all over space to collect space debris or crashed ship parts and other things they can sell for profit. Their father is a space junker who does the same thing and that's how he met their mother, a human, and then Kyukydo and Kaiza were born. 6 years later, katomi was born and was the spoiled princess everyone makes her out to be and were overbearing. Her brother came of age and left first leaving Katomi alone with her parents and their trade of work (which she was pissed about even if she loves jer parents) before she eventually went with her brothers to work with them.
Eventually, Katomi wanted to be..more and have her own things and not have her older brother and her parents breathing down the back of their only sister and daughter. She is small like her mother and took after her mother a lot. (Besidea the obvious mesakkah traits) Because of this, she was protected well from other aliens who wanted to abduct her and sell her because even in space, you have horrible people. But she wasn't all aware of that because she was kinda sheltered. Her father and brothers taught her how to defend herself and use a blaster and knives and hand-to-hand combat, but there's only so much you can do.
She saved enough of her own credits and got her first little junker ship and just..poof. left. She has learned the hard way that not everyone in space is friendly. But she's still a spoiled brat. She's currently trapped on THE Ice planet, getting "help" from one of the locals who basically dwarfs her small size. She is still learning how sakh got stuck on this cold primitive planet, their history on the planet and such.
Her brothers are looking for her and her parents (father especially) is absolutely furious with her so....she might not want ro fo home. Lol
Kyukydo is the first born and kinda a...dick. he's cocky most of the time and knows how to do things and get shit done....but he hates being called "Kyu" (which his family does all the time) because it sounds like the human english word "cute" and he thinks he's anything but.
Then you have Kaiza, born second, who is the more timid and quite sibling compared to his 2 other loud mouthed siblings. He's mellow and very very smart and loves technology and is more reserved. He's soft spoken and the calm sibling in times of distress. No one has ever seen him angry yet. Probably best if they dont.
Art and oc's belong to me
Mesakkah/sakhui and the rubyverse belong to Ruby Dixon
Look I know I’m late to the party but I’ve been devouring the IPB/Icehome series for the last 3 weeks and I NEEEEEEEEEEED more fanart of N’dek and Devi
They are my all time favorite couple and there is so little fanart of them. Pls artistic fans of this series, grace us with the N’dek and Devi fanart 😭
I just read Sam's Secret again to prepare to read the new books and I'm just once again struck with how much I adore Sam and Sessah. I'm just laying here with severe book hangover because I NEED more of them and I don't think we are going to get it. I can't think about anything but them.
Also why is there no fanart for them? 🥲 someone please. I'm not talented enough.
Ladies, Theydies, and Gent Le Mans, I present to you my tier list of the first 72 books of the Ice Planet Barbarians extended universe. This is apart of my (currently) 108 slide powerpoint presentation that started as something my friends asked for and has become like a scientific quest to me.
got some IPB for people who read smutty alien books. Yes. Some of my favorite moody men (except Ainar hes a cinnamon roll) all this belongs to the wonderful author Ruby Dixon
(abt your tags on the ariana & zo piece) I totally agree! I really loved her book because it gives a good perspective into what's going on with her and tbh it was pretty relatable. I get why the other women were like "omg shes crying over everything" but tbh that would probably be me xD
I CANT BELIEVE I'M JUST NOW SEEING THIS ASK OMG WTF TUMBLR??????
but yeah, zolaya is 100% on my simp list because he's just so sweet and supportive and understanding of ariana (which I understand is the bare minimum of a partner but hey). he knows that she's different from the rest of the humans, but he never does anything to make her feel that way. he jumps right in to try and accommodate to what she needs and he let's her know that it's never a burden or a bother to him to have to do things a little differently for her sake. i was expecting to relate to maddie since we're both plus size ladies but our personalities are TOTALLY opposite lmao but I definitely relate to ariana probably the most out of almost all of the women in the series (I haven't read all of the icehome books yet lol but as far as the ice planet barbarians books? yeah, ariana is who I see the most of myself in)
