It's.... MERMAY-PALOOZA~

Finally, FINALLY I have collected enough assets to do MerMay!

This one will go a lil differently from previous Renderpaloozas - I'll be taking requests all week (5/1/23 - 5/7/23), but instead of trying to cram all the renders into the same week, I'll be pacing myself and releasing them throughout the month.

Choices and rules are under the cut. I can't possibly show every variation available, feel free to DM me if you want to see texture options or have any questions!

Requests are now CLOSED.

You can find the request queue here!

RULES:

Please limit to 2 requests per requestor.

One character per render.

Renders will have a prefab underwater scene as a backdrop.

Poses will be chosen by me.

If you request someone else's OC, I will have to okay it with the OC's creator first!

I reserve the right to close the request window at any time, I am but one little guy and I can only do so much T_T

I will append a request queue to this post as requests come in! If you send a request and don't see it appear in the queue within a day, tumblr probably ate your request :c Try again!

Tail Choices:

Classic Merfolk (choose tailfin)

Seahorse Tail

Fantasy Lionfish Tail

Octo-Mer (fem base characters only, sadly)

Shark Tail (choose arm fins, scars, body paint)

Classic Mermaid (with gills, fem base only)

Eel Tail (with gills, masc base only)

Fancy Tails (choose fin options)

Snake Tails (choose scale options)

Texture Choices:

Color - most of these have a huge array of colors and patterns available. Feel free to DM me about the choices available for the tail you've chosen! I can also make some basic color adjustments to suit. You can also just leave it up to me!

Glossy/Metallic/Pearly/Bioluminescent - I can make the tail have a fancy sheen or bioluminescent markings!

Clothing/Jewelry:

Pearls, gems, gold, silver; rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings and body chains; facial and body piercings - I can adorn your mer in jewelry if you like! Give a general vibe and I'll do my best to fulfill it from my large library of jewelry assets. (Otherwise, they'll just have their usual jewelry.)

Armor - I can put armor on the top half of your mer. Choose from fantasy or realistic styles.

Modesty top - if your mer has breasts, they can go bare (will mark the render as Mature) or I can choose a little fantasy top for them to wear. (If your mer goes bare, I can absolutely give them nip piercings btw)

Masc mers can absolutely wear a little crop top too, as a treat :)

Hair:

Unless otherwise specified, characters will have their usual hair, but you can request a long-haired version for your mer!

🍻 "tell me your most awkward date story" (Ell to Heron, probably)

~foxfirefallout

@foxfirefallout Let's do some work with the past! 💖

---

Heron chuckles and covers his face with one hand, "When I was a teenager I was Master Borgia's apprentice alongside Jinana, but he also had students. Pupils he was paid to tutor for their general education and we learned with them for subjects outside of our magical studies."

"There was a girl who fancied me, but I hadn't learned how to...Project yet...I think there are a few instances that went over just as well with more or less drama."

[daisydevorak]

Ell'iandyr! Belongs to @foxfirefallout​ (colors might be off a little, if this annoys you, tell me I’ll fix them!)

[foxfirefallout]

💔😘♡ for Apprentice!Ell'iandyr - vesuvian-disaster

💔 = Has your muse ever been heartbroken? If so, explain what happened.

In the moments after a parting of ways, Ell’iandyr might say that they are heartbroken, but it isn’t something that lasts for very long, especially since they have Asra to suggest that if the relationship didn’t last, there was a reason, and that reason probably wasn’t Ell’s fault (because as far as Asra is concerned, Ell is a perfect cinnamon-roll). As apprentice, they have no memory of their family’s betrayal of them, and do not actively try to regain those memories.

😘 = Does your muse like to flirt? Do they like to be flirted with? 

Ell’iandyr absolutely likes to flirt, and to be flirted with. They generally go into it with no expectations, though, so when the attention is reciprocated, they might be temporarily flustered.

♡ = Is there any kind of person that your muse will never date?

Lucio 

While Ell considers themself to be fairly open-minded, they would not date someone who exhibits qualities of cruelty or apathy towards others. Even if they are charming to Ell, they would suspect that such attitudes would be a more true reflection of such a person’s temperament.

[epoch-smog]

🍻 "If you could do anything in the world, what would it be?" (Ell'iandyr is a firm believer in wishes and intention shaping reality, so it's always fun to see what direction others might take.)

Jinana helps Ell prepare their mass quantity of hair before they both take a nice social soak with Heron at one of Vesuvia’s many public baths.

(Ell’iandyr belongs to @foxfirefallout and Heron belongs to @vesuvian-disaster! Link to full size under the cut...)

Midsummer Masquerade, Day 4: Suspension + Magic + (implied) Voyeurism (Heron x Ell’iandyr)

Heron is putting on a bit of a show for onlookers; normally, his use of magic is so incredibly efficient that little or no waste energy is given off as a glow or other effect. It seems that soon, Ell’iandyr will add to the light show with their own ‘special’ effects!

Warnings and link to uncensored version under the cut! 🔞🍋 MINORS DNI

(Heron belongs to @vesuvian-disaster, and Ell’iandyr belongs to @foxfirefallout! They both appear by request. :3)

Warnings: half-visible erect peen, magic handjob, magic neep play.

[the-iron-orchid]

🎁 Ell arrives looking marginally less uncertain of the crowd than they did last year- some of these are familiar faces now. They find Jinana and offer over the silk- wrapped parcel with a little smile. "I was going to get you another journal, but then I found these..." The silk scarf conceals a small box containing a set of three artistically blown-glass bottles. It's difficult to tell if the shifting colors are an effect of the glass or their contents. "I've been assured of their... efficacy."

Jinana lifts a brow, peering at the bottles with hir magical sight. "My goodness," s/he says, chuckling. "These are bound to add a certain something to those special moments, hmmm?"

"What's this, darling?" Julian folds his long self into a seated position at the low table, doling out three mugs that (thankfully) contain a pear cider, rather than the cocktail of the moment.

Jinana gives him a sidelong look. "Oh, just a few bedroom dreams come true, through the wonders of magic." S/he laughs as the tips of his ears steadily begin to burn red. "Now thank Ell'iandyr for the thoughtful gift."

He coughs, the redness spreading to his cheeks. "Ahem. Er, yes, thank you, we'll be sure to, uhm... ohgodIcan'tdoit" He sinks to the surface of the table in a pile of blushes and defeat, while Jinana laughs, patting his back.

"He tried."

Ell gets a texture update and a few sculpt tweaks, just in time for the Midsummer Masq :3

(Original sculpt by @vesuvian-disaster. Ell’iandyr belongs to @foxfirefallout!)

Jinana’s Birthday Renderpalooza! 

Requested By: @foxfirefallout

We're not sure how they ended up in this situation... but poor Ell'iandyr seems mortified, while Jinana laughs it off.

[the-iron-orchid]

39 (kissing tears away) for Ell and Jinana (because apparently I need a dose of feels, maybe?)

[ Touches Prompts ]

"Please don't misunderstand me... I enjoy his company very much, and, uhm, everything else, too..." Ell's features, already slightly flushed from alcohol, become pinker yet. "But I guess... for all of the time we spend together, I just don't know if we're actually... close? I mean... ugh, it's so hard to put into words..."

Jinana clucks soothingly, summoning Saheli with a wave of hir hand to prepare a pot of tea - Ell has probably had enough of the cordials they have been sipping this evening. The unseen force dutifully lifts the teapot from its place in the cabinet, taking it to fill with water.

"I just... oh, I don't understand what I'm doing wrong!" This comes out in an increasingly strained series of syllables, the last hardly more than a strangled little sob. Ell hides their face in their hands, clearly embarrassed by this outburst.

Jinana scoots closer, running one hand soothingly down their back as they attempt to get themself back under control. "It's not about being wrong, dear. Heron is just... well, it's very easy for him to put others before himself. It's very easy for him to get so caught up helping someone else that he ends up sort of... protecting them too much, even from himself. He can end up creating a distance, even when he wishes to be closer."

Ell sniffles surreptitiously, dashing tears from their cheeks, but more just come to take their place - this is clearly a dam that has broken, something that has been troubling them deeply. Jinana reaches out, taking their face between hir hands, so that they must look at hir.

"If you love him - and I think that you do - there is something that you must ask yourself. Are you willing to meet him where he is? Are you willing to become the kind of person who is strong enough to help steer him out of his habits when they work against him?”

Jinana pushes the damp strands of hair back from Ell’s face, leaning in to very gently brush hir lips against their wet cheek. At the touch, hir magic leaves their skin instantly clean and dry again.

S/he smiles. “I think that you are... but only you can prove that.”

[the-iron-orchid]

"Did you sleep well?" Ell is reasonably sure they did, if only because they don't remember getting here, much less falling asleep.

[ Waking Up Prompts ]

"Ah, we did get a little carried away with the drinks last night - it can be hard to keep up." Jinana smiles. "Heron and I ended up just bedding down here so we could keep an eye on you."

"Here" is a large-ish nest of cushions and pillows, set up in the workspace in the basement of the shop. Anjali is lying amid the pillows, legs in the air and spotted belly exposed, snoring.

"You just wouldn't budge from watching the light of the mana collector - it really is pretty, isn't it?" The mana collector resembles nothing so much as a large furnace of stone and iron, inlaid with complex sigils. Instead of a fire, however, it has a bank of large crystals, glowing with a myriad of colors. It draws ambient power from the natural currents, and stores additional power that Heron and Jinana pour into it regularly, keeping the many power-intensive magical functions of the shop running.

"Speaking of Heron, he's just gone out to get some fresh baked goods for breakfast - he'll be right back. In the meantime, you should probably drink this." Jinana unstoppers a small vial of pale greenish liquid, holding it out to Ell. The light fragrances of fresh mint and cucumber arise from it. "Heron's Miracle Hangover Cure in a vial. You fell asleep before we could get one into you last night."

Ell downs the potion - there isn't much to it, just a scant mouthful. Almost immediately, their color looks better.

The shop bell sounds from above - Heron, returning with breakfast, courtesy of Selasi. "Ah, there's the last piece to a better morning - well, that, and some hot tea. Let's go upstairs and meet up with Heron, shall we?" Jinana offers hir hand, assisting Ell'iandyr up from the nest of pillows.

[the-iron-orchid]

18 from the list of touch prompts (squishing the other's cheek) for... Jinana an Ell?

~foxfirefallout

[ Touches Prompts ]

"Oh, don't get me wrong - I love spending time with him, I don't want that to change. I just don't know that someone like Heron would be interested in me... like that." Ellian'dyr wraps their hands around the tea mug, their eyes cast downward.

Jinana sighs, then reaches out across the table, lifting their chin gently with hir fingers. "Let me tell you something about Heron. He does not spend his time where he is uninterested."

"Well, no, but..."

"But nothing. It's clear that he cares about you. Is it so hard to believe that he is interested in you in other ways as well?"

"I... maybe." They look aside, pale skin warming slightly with a flush.

Jinana smiles. "Then trust me. No-one knows him better." S/he pats their cheek, then pinches it lightly, a playful gesture. "And after all, who could resist such a fetching blush?" Ell's cheeks stain abruptly crimson, and s/he chuckles. "Oh, I'll stop teasing you... and I'll keep your little secret, for now. But you should talk to him."

[the-iron-orchid]

Ell settles into their seat, hands closed around their glass. It's at least their second- being out drinking with Jinana and Heron means they tend to lose track. "So... tell me about your first kiss." It's hard to imagine it not being a good story. And if not good, at least amusing.

[ Drunken Confessions ]

Jinana gives a little snort. "Oh, now I haven't thought about that in some time." S/he laughs ruefully, setting down hir tankard and leaning forward slightly.

"I was fourteen at the time, with nothing really distinguishing me from the boys - the hips came in later. So you must imagine this small, stick-bug of a teenager with frizzy peacock hair and magic hardly under my own control, shuffling about in whatever oversized and wildly clashing outfit I had chosen for myself that day.

"One of Master Borgia's older students - he was about sixteen - had taken an interest in me, the gods alone know why. Problem was, he'd gotten all his ideas about romance from bad plays or something. When I turned him down, he thought that the best course was to try harder." S/he sighs and shakes hir head sadly. "You'd think he would have known better... but he eventually tried the old 'corner them and go in for the kiss' maneuver.

"I was so surprised that he did actually manage to kiss me - for half a second. Then my magic rose up in me and zapped him so hard he was thrown backward - no lasting harm done, but he did lose most of his eyebrows." S/he laughs.

"Anyway, he stayed away from me for the rest of his time with Master Borgia, so I guess he learned an important lesson about consent that day, hm?" S/he grins and takes a long swig from hir tankard. "Served him right, really - no means no."

[the-iron-orchid]

Ell'iandyr made their way through the crowded shop to find Jinana and present hir with their gift. Even the wrapping seemed practical-- a fine length of silk wrapped around something decidedly book-shaped and tucked into the bow, a bottle labeled 'Ink' and a glass dip-pen. "I'm sorry I'm late," they say, offering over the gift. "The first bottle of ink I charmed was a little... too expressive. I think this one should be fine, though." ~foxfirefallout

"You're just in time," Jinana assures them, accepting the bundle with a smile. "I can only imagine what highly-charged ink might do - talk about running away with your thoughts!" S/he laughs. "Thank you so much - I certainly have been filling up the journals lately, and I much prefer glass pens to quills. Quills are so... scratchy." S/he shakes hirself slightly.

S/he leans in and confides, "Enchanting is always touchy for me, too... we can't all be like Heron. Speaking of, I think he's up in the kitchen, preparing more snacks. I'm sure he'd love for you to go say hi."
