The Wraith

[largo]

The Wraith are an enemy on the likes of which can only be compared to by Anubis and his Lycanlords. So the thing is I sort of need some help on coming up with a look for them. I originally planned to base the off the Wraith from Stargate Atlantis but the more I thought about it the sillier it sounded, the one thing I did keep other then the name was that the Wraith are harder then hell to kill, for anyone who watches SGA then they know what I mean. Here is the general info I've come up with about the Wraith.

• 
  [list=]Next there base form is that of a human looking reptile but from there I'm lost.

[list=]The Wraith are orginized under a caste system, and each of the different castes has there own uniqe form. As an example since there ships are similar to the borg in that they are living machines but still need some one to do maintince on them since they are still inorganic this is the only caste of the Wraith that I've come up with a look for is that they are small about a meter in size they have four lengthy arms and are very bendilbe.

That's about all I really know at the moment. I really need help with this so please every one feel free to give any ideas you can think of. There arn't really any limits on how different there final forms are since when a Wraith reaches adulthood, they are genetically altered to enhance their preformance acording to what caste they are in so be creative. These are the castes which still need forms for in order of their races soical pyarmid at the bottom is your basic cannon fodder type soilder but something to consider is that even the lowest class of soilder is still strong enough to take on a commander kavzar and have a pretty good chance of walking away alive hurt possible but alive. After the cannon fodder comes the Technician caste and I've already come up with them so there covered. The next caste are the crews that operate the Wraith fleets, as this perticular castes design is dependent on what I make the bridges of their ships look like and i've yet to do it this caste I'll have to come up with later . The next caste is the berserker class these are essintally wild out of control juggernoughts that are big, fast, and increadible strong. For those that have played Halo I was thinking that they'd be along the lines of a hunter in size but thats all I can come up with. The next class the warrior caste has three different classes you have a lesser warrior then a full warrior and finally a high warrior or something along those lines other then the fact that they get progessively strong and more advanced as they rank up.(similar to something along the lines of a kavzar-commander kavzar, commander kavzar-enforcer kavzar) The final caste the Wraith Queen is one of a kind and I've know what she would look like since I came up with the idea of the Wraith.

I hope you guys can help I can live with just discriptions so please help me.

PS-if there are problems with my spelling it's because firefox isn't working right now not sure why? But I've become very dependent on the spell check it comes with so sorry for any spelling errors that there might be.

The Wraith from StarGate Atlantis is a evolution hybrid of a native bug and ancient/human dna. The biggest problem is how they reproduce. It seems that they're more hu,man in that respect than bug.

But as far as your characters go, since we're talking about a caste system, might as well make a few suggestions. Since everyone in that sort of caste system is specialized in their role in the Hive or whatever you want to call it. I would suggest instead of hands for the warrior castes, that they have some sort of energy emitters or even blades. Afterall there is no need for hands.

The Queen could secrete some sort of enzyme that is potent to even Guyvers, making them mindless/slaves/easy for suggestion. Even this same enzyme could convert that Guyver into one of your Wraith.

Thanks McAvory for the idea.
