"...And these atomic bombs which science burst upon the world that night
were strange even to the men who used them."
H. G. Wells
The World Set Free, 1914
A Nukite is a living machine, in this case a nuclear bomb. They first became a thing in 2021 when I myself, RaptorMocha, had a conversation with my good friend RubenSling and he showed me this character he made that was an anthro nuke, 'Cherri Bomb'. I absolutely loved the idea and decided to make my own, 'Firestorm'. After a few months Ruben asked me if we should make an open species out of them and I agreed and Rokits were born!
Wait Rokits? Thought this was about Nukites? Well It is! Few months in Ruben became very busy with art school and left me as the sole idea man for it. Over the next two years I created a bunch of lore for them but my vision was a bit different as I envisioned them as sentient machines Ruben did not. This lead to a split between the two with Nukites being the predecessors to Rokits which come about 150 years after in the lore.

Example and first drawing of a Nukite done by Alithsko of Firestorm
Nukites do NOT have to be fat like Firestorm here. They MUST have a bomb shaped tail though and be made of metal. Head shape and style can vary but must connect at the very back of the skull much like that of a dinosaur.
