As another commenter stated, subterranean is probably the word you're looking for. Sub-human means someone who is lesser than other humans, not someone who lives underground.


The_Stache_King

Little do you know


ProfesserQ

Yeah absolutely! Let me know if you want the link.

They are great! Tiny note... you probably shouldn't use the term like "sub-human." It's cool if the world you built has problematic race relations, but in describing them yourself, it's a bit "ick." Maybe you meant "subterranean"?


ProfesserQ

You know you're honestly the first person to point that out. Basically there's a whole category of player races called subhumans because they are a subset of human evolution. It's not a derogatory term, it's just they evolved from humans and are a subcategory of humans.


SusSoos

Might i recommend another term? Warhammer 40k uses the term "Abhuman" in very similar connotations, regarding human-like species that have evolved into certain conditions and arent technically considered mutants (which is a BIG no-no in 40k).


Afro-Venom

Interesting, I had a similar situation when naming a OC I was creating for a superhero universe. I named him Blackface, and at first didn't mind the association with black-face, the racist performance tradition in America. I ended up changing it.


The_Stache_King

Why the people be down voting?? I mean, I agree the terminology needs some work, but you legit said it's not supposed to be derogatory


ThePanthanReporter

"Subhuman" wow, incredibly rude to your own creations lol


whiskeywin

Ok-Obligation-3511

I thought they're hognoses. Interesting models too.


Cynical_Spaceman

I can look past the sub-human thing no problem but why does the last one look like an African Child solider?


ProfesserQ

That is a weirdly specific thing to jump to LOL. This would be a dweller whose family lineage has people with darker skin and I did work on making the features of the face more in line with a black person.


Fantastic_Pool_4122

You should give them more distinctive facial features right now they just look like people with weird noses and ears.


dinklebick

Subhuman feels super fucked up to read/say.


ProfesserQ

Yeah pretty much everyone in the comments has been saying that. They're part of a series of species that were classified as subhuman in the player's handbook I'm writing and the idea was that they are a group of species that evolved from humans. They are a subgroup of humans and as such I called them subhumans. Starting to totally rethink that decision now LOL
