Hivorgs are an open species created around the character B4444. While the creator of the species, Presto, maintains their own lore for the species, hivorgs are free and open to use in anyone's stories without restrictions, and people may choose to adapt as much or as little as the "official" lore into their stories as they wish.
Lore, bases, and other resources are very much a work in progress. Please be patient, as this is all currently being done primarily by a single person.
The term “Hivorg” is a word created by the United States Office of Atmospheric Intelligence to refer to a specific kind of artificially intelligent humanoid machines that have been crashing into the earth’s surface for the last 130 years. These machines vary in size, shape, color, and behavior, but they all share features described in the official design guide.
Unbeknownst to the peoples of Earth, the hivorgs were first launched by the civilization of insectoid aliens called the Bztk Empire in 1874 CE out in Proxima Centauri. The hivorgs, or as the Bztk call them, the kvutzztbzzk, were created by the Empire to find an conquer planets that could potentially be colonized by the Empire.
By the 2020s the hivorgs number in the trillions, though the vast majority of them are stranded in the depths of space, burned up in the atmosphere of planets, destroyed by comets, or have met some other cruel fate. Of those that remain, many have lost their original programming, have been reprogrammed, or have gone rogue on their own. That is to say, they're not all murderous colonizers.
Anyone is free to create as many of thir own hivorgs as they wish, however to be "officially" considered a hivorg they must follow the guidelines found here.
Beyond that, there are no paid variants, traits, or features. If someone is telling you you need to pay to have wings or horns or whatnot on your hivorg, they are scamming you.
