Dominick (left in the first picture) and Caleb (green hair): Dominick is the heir of a mafia empire and Caleb is his capable employee, but not all is as it seems [original story]

id like to hear more about your sleep token inspired project if you wanna share! i love their themes and lyrics so im curious!

Hi! Thank you so much for this question! A few people have asked me to talk about this project so I'll just do it publicly here and if anyone has any questions feel free to send them my way :)

I'll try to keep it spoiler free but I'm sooo excited about this I'm finding it hard to SHUT UP HAHA also I'll put it under the cut because I get a bit rambly

SO first things first, it's a collection of short stories, so far amassing around 5000 words. They are all connected, creating an overarching narrative.

The collection is inspired by Sleep Token's concept of there being a deity named Sleep that is ambiguous in their intentions, this deity promising greatness to their followers in exchange for servitude. The "name" Vessel also appears to refer to the protagonist, the first follower of Sleep. With the only other vessel appearing is IV (who is referred to as the Fourth, written in letters, to differentiate from the band themselves).

Fourth plays an important role in the narrative, but not a big one. He only appears/is mentioned a few times.

The stories detail Vessel's journey from making a deal with Sleep to the eventual appearance of doubt in his worship of the goddess. He starts to realize that perhaps this deal isn't all that which he'd hoped it would be, he starts to realize that he is being hurt much more than he is getting out of the deal.

Sleep is a metaphor for anything toxic or hurtful in one's life. Vessel is all of us. His journey is that of unlearning self-deprecation and self-destruction, learning self-love, healing etc.

Friends who've read this story have told me that they're very curious if there will be a part 2 because of the contents of the epilogue, and... yeah, I'm weak, I will write a part 2.

Part 2 will deal with the real lives of the vessels (important note: I have never looked up the members' identities, the characters in these projects are based on the members' persona onstage, never on their real life identities) and their slow but sure realization that they have all met in the Dreamworld, as well as follow their struggle to fully rid themselves of Sleep, something they've been trying to do at different rates since the first collection of stories (fuck, I spoiled it ;;).

That's it for now!! Let me know if you'd like to know more!

A super easy Astarion scar tutorial

I use this method even if I want to slap them on quick or as a base for more detail to add further highlight/contrast

Searching for “Astarion transparent png” should get you an image you can work with

my st project is almost done....

[ghostkingart]

Dear friends ❤️,

After surviving the devastating war in Gaza, my family and I sought safety in Egypt. While we have moved away from immediate danger, the challenges of life here remain significant. We are struggling to secure rent and daily living expenses.😢

We have decided to open a fundraising link to help secure a safe place for us, a place that will protect us and our children from the harsh conditions. Your donations will serve as a beacon of hope in building a home that provides us with safety and stability.😔🇵🇸

Every contribution, no matter how small, will make a big difference in our lives.🙏🏻

You can contribute via the following link:

https://gofund.me/abbc2759

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your support and generosity.🙌🏼❤️‍🩹
