[@gabrieleriva_bboykappside]

I recently discovered the lore of those magnificent fictional creatures, and both liking the fandom and being a sucker for sci-fi stuff and biological-technological connections, I easily fell in love with the concept of protogens. To the point that my head started to think about a story. I have a couple of characters in mind, but I have to come up with something consistent plotwise yet. So I started questioning myself. Being them both badass looking and both artificially-created life, and able to travel from planet to planet, I'd like to show a lot of stuff. But. Since it's not something I originally created, I'm struggling with some points. For example, Primagens are a closed species and I by no means intend to violate their rules, so I suppose creating those characters for the sole story purpose is out of debate. And I'm completely fine with that. It would be a lot easier for me to create an alternative version of them with no conceptual differences but with slight modifications, such as "creators" being either only referenced by this name by the creatures or substituted with other entities that are not owned by a specific person and therefore are not a closed species. I also wanted to include other life forms in this little project such as humans for example, which they make contact with. Nothing else will be changed, as the original lore is absolutely interesting to me. It really does sound like I'm stealing something. So I'm sorry. And I probably have to ask the direct creator of the species so I can be 100% sure, idk. What do you think? Thanks. (anyway it's one of my personal projects which is gonna be almost certainly private and not published anywhere, and even if would, it will not lead to any kind of profit of course, it's just a passionate fan work)

I know 7 songs that sound like they were made by Protogens: "The end is near - Gunnar Olsen" "Don't change a thing - Silent Partner" "Dub Zap - Gunnar Olsen" "Dark Step - Silent Partner" "The Darkness - MK2" "Destructoid - MK2" "Hey Now - MK2"

this shit hits wat to fucking close to home up until i was about 14, my father and my mom battled for custody my dad, was an abusive drunk bastard every other weekend he would nearly kill me because i had to protect my little sister i made damn sure, he never touched her and it nearly cost me my life on a great deal of occasions but, in the earlier years people in the area didnt understand adhd or autism so i was the subject to..... alot of pretty horryfing experiments like yknow in call of duty black ops, when mason has flashbacks that bright white light and screeching noise? that comes from your mind trying to fill in the blanks but from what i remember alot of things went in my head that shouldnt have been in my brain alot of tests psychological. physical you name it i underwent it although i dont remember much of it what isnt just bright lights and loud noises i see people in masks, standing over me sticking things..... in my eyes and my head..... we did it because we couldnt afford the court legal fees and general income so..... we turned to medical trials and... i.... most of my childhood is a blur and what i can remember is either fuzzy, bright lights and colors, or loud noises i had no idea what i was saying yes to i just thought it would help my mom

[@Jack_OutsideTheBox]

I’m not a furry, and only found this video because my friend who is one won’t stop asking me to watch this, but this lore is really good.

[@aiden9142]

ive had an interest in furry stuff for a long time & protogens are by far my favourite.. but i didn't know about the lore. this was super interesting thank you for the video :)

[@totallycherri5608]

"The limbs of the protogen are interchangeable and vary depending on the environment that that protogen will inhabit for their service. These can range from aqua-tech tails and webbed hands, paws, and ears for easier swimming in aquatic regions/areas, to long ears and thin tails for head dispersal and balance during sprinting in hot/heated environments..." what is this, a documentary?

[@RivuletClone]

*Yes.*

[@alexandergall3525]

It would be awesome if in the future, you could buy a protogen visor that actually turns you into a protogen.

yeah get some help, *you shouldnt be on this platform buddy.*

[@Pottheaxolotle]

This got me into being a protogen and the furry community, now a few months later not knowing who made this, I'm subbed to you and now know that you made the thing that got me into this. Thanks, and I don't mean that in a mean way.

[@nocturnal_creature4]

I just became an illegal Primagen in the furry fandom after seeing how awesome of a species they are. I still like Protogens though. They're nice. Note: Primagens are closed species so that's why I'm an illegal one (didn't pay for it)

For those who don’t know, the face plating acts as a semi permeable membrane, much like our own skin. It’s comprised entirely up of Nanomachines

[@ricochettheprotogen4928]

This is gonna be long and complex

[@Wayrail]

when i hear subnautica literally in the first minute, i can already tell this is going to be an epic video, just be prepared for an edit i make when i finish watching it Edit: This video almost had a documentary-esque appearance, with the way Raeal presented it. The music had that futuristic aesthetic adding to the overall atmosphere of the video and making it more engaging. and i believe 20 minutes is a really good time frame as it isn't too long or too short, all the information was cleverly condensed into that 20 minutes, making for a really entertaining experience. I feel like protogens are legitimately more than just 'a furry species', with the expanded lore information, Zenith's Outer Reach should probably be considered to that of many popular franchises such as Star Wars and Star Trek. And c'mon, Protogens are just cool in general, just imagine being able to flip off someone you don't like with just your nanite visor face and then detaching your arm and yeeting it at them for extra sarcasm.

[@TemnotaVoronya1243]

God I've only heard it 6 times but hearing that "Welcome Aboard Captain, All Systems Online", that voice is deeper that Corpse's.Its the best thing ever

Now i can Prove that I’m not a toaster, but rather a Creature designed for War.

[@thomaspurol9322]

You can be both. Maybe they put a toaster in you for when they need it.

[@cmcgaming7495]

No you are still a toaster. Wait my fursona is a protogen, so am i a toaster? WHAT HAVE I DONE

[@camoningerland8212]

A toaster designed for war, mind you.

[@Boredability]

This is cool, but I’m pretty sure furries aren’t supposed to be super insanely deep and filled with dark secrets, I as just something that people like to do as a hobby and be cute little beans

What kind of gate keeping is this

[@hartman3030]

I am worried this situation is going to get worse.

[@AethenTheProotTheSecond]

Why

[@trejartheprimagen5530]

I am extremely happy to have been able to help Raeal finish this video and ensure it had all the proper information. Me and the other Admin staff that work with Koinu to help keep the community based on her amazing creations going strong, the Protogen and the Primagen are happy to help anyone ensure everything is going good with the many Protogen out there. A lot of info can be found following the links posted by Raeal the Protogen, and I among others are happy to help bring everyones inner Protogen to life.

[@breakeranimation4146]

Defo gonna be making a lot of protogen and primagen characters.

[@benjorekel1452]

Not a furry but holy cow this is actually some good sci fi

[@lexidiusBS]

Finally, an explanation for Avalisergals. In all seriousness though, this lore is a lot more fleshed out than I originally thought. I can dig it.

[@just_a_man3758]

3:45 *breaking bad theme intensifies*

[@Kebab-Mate]

Jesse, we need to cook, you know the business and I know the chemistry...

[@DoctorTex]

So I was asked to look up where exactly the Protos come from, and I found this. Perfect. Thank you, my friend!

[@CJRXON]

Thousands of years, wars, primagenerator factions, and rebellion; all leading up to this goofball in the end credits, lol

[@un_pogaz]

The music of introduction is "Dvine - Unknown Reality", for those who are interested.

[@agentphoenix2324]

18:00 this is intriguing but also terrifying in a way. My headcanon puts this as some sort of old combat protocol activated during desperate measures when war was still raging on. Often activated when there was no sign of backup, rescue, or avenues of escape. The effects of this protocol takes a toll on the proto to the point where death is almost certain. If they do manage to survive, something is likely left irreparably damaged. Now the old protocol is just remade into a malware virus/hack

[@ShinawaDoesStuff]

"why do protogens have intresting lore" because humanity is boring

[@thegamerator10]

Protogens in lore: *robust, hardy slave species capable of surviving extreme environments* Protogens in practice: "beep beep boop" "toaster" "RAM!"

[@afox4254]

I made a protogen sona a long time ago but i was never shure where they fit within the lore so i just made them the furry version of Samus Aran from the Metroid games. They are one of my main fursonas now^^

[@willowdestinyx1144]

Wow…this is so cool! I love it, My fursona is actually a rare protogen! So watching this us really fun for me and everyone else!

[@DoctorK-im9cd]

So, if Planet E1 is where the Protogens live in peace, what do they do on planet E621? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@misterkaos.357]

What happens on Planet E621, stays on Planet E621.

this lore comes in useful for me building Furr-Tec for VR Chat, and soon its own game

Talking about your own species is cool and very interesting

[@keenkastroviach8695]

The Toaster. A machine created to toast things. Once I stuck my hand inside of this incredible machine. I turned the dial all the way up and pulled down the trigger. The scorching metal seared into my skin. I felt it begin to burn off. The metal was so hot, all of the skin on my hand ended up burning off. It felt so soothing and nice. Once the toaster springs popped, I looked at my hand. No skin was left and it was on fire. It felt like heaven. I stuck my other hand in, the skin also burned off. The soothing feeling as my skin slowly seared off felt like a massage. Now both of my hands were skinless. I eventually did this to all of my other limbs…somehow. I even did it to my face. I looked in the mirror afterwards and stared at the skeleton that once used to be me, fully skinned, now I was bare to the bone. But then I realized, I was never myself all along. I was Sans the skeleton from the popular game Undertale by Toby Fox featuring popular songs such as Megalovania.

[@The3dCarrot]

That moment when you know the weakness of your flesh but you're also a furry

[@daltonloges99]

I know this would kinda fall into HFY territory but, would protogen kill teams be needed to deal with human military forces? Given how adaptable we are, coupled with the fact that at our core we are a fighting lot.

[@Roslynguy]

That is if we ever did fight them. But to be honest, with how insanely fast technology is developing, such as AI and nanite technology, it's only a matter of time before someone ACTUALLY creates an actual Protogen.

[@goattranslation]

These are cute, I want one-

[@jackcarter6066]

so here's something funny, I some how created a Protogen without knowing what a Protogen is. I even made a 32 page draft of the character.
