[antauri-srmthfg]

I haven't gotten around to posting anything yet since logging back into this account, so ill throw these guys on here! I've made a couple fancharacters over the last few months and here I have the fan kids ive made for the main monkeys of the team <3 read more to check out their bios!

Serenity (far right, oldest) Child of Otto (referred to father in this bio) and Antauri (who will be referred to as parent) natural fur is a darker green, with helmet being black (wears Antauri’s old helmet) Takes after both of her parents, wise and good with mechanics/engineering, but tends to be more like her parent Antauri personality wise though she does have an bit of a wacky side similar to her father Otto too that she tends to suppress (mostly only seen when it comes to food, especially if she thinks no one is looking) in favor of seeming wise and composed for the other kids to look up to. She has the intense urge to taste new foods (and licking things off the floor and new non edible things if she can get away with it), though she doesn’t actually like a lot of foods especially in the meat area but she loves trying things. Her favorite treat being rock candy so that she may pretend she’s eating real rocks/crystal. She enjoys meditating with her parent when she isn’t working on mechanical project or hanging out with the other kids on the super robot. Originally unknown to her, two of her friends, Elektra and Lumen, had crushes on her and had a little bit of a rivalry over it. In the end Serenity ended up with Elektra. Her best and most trusted friend and teammate being Comet, her second in command, she knows he can always be the voice of reason the team needs in situations where the rest of them are in a panic, she trusts him to be the one to keep the team focused and together whenever she cannot. Her favorite color is almost a grayish purple. Weapon is a spiked ball on chain, one of her moves she enjoys doing is lodging the ball up into the ceiling and swinging herself around the room to kick or wack enemies with her free hand or tail. -Bigender Biromantic greysexual (she/he)

Comet (2nd left) Child of Sprx (biological parent), Nova (biological Mother) and Gibson (father). Twin of Elektra and the oldest of his siblings, his half siblings being Lumen and Saff. Comet is typically a calm, modest, responsible yet easy going guy, but he is very protective of his family and friends. When he feels there is a threat he seems to channel his mother’s rage. One of his favorite foods is banana bread. His hobbies are astronomy and playing the ukulele, as well as cooking. His favorite color being a muted shade of peach. Comet is a good pilot, but his twin outshines him in that department, he is also a very competent fighter, but his half sister Lumen has him beat there as well. The only difference is of all his siblings, he would be first one willing to go all out on his mother, to make sure he proves himself as of the lot of his siblings, he is the one most likely to get accidentally be forgotten or the least attention. His parents love him but he feels like he just doesn’t compare to his siblings sometimes. Comet eventually dates Amaryllis, who is the daughter of redeemed!Mandarin. Weapon is a hammer that also emits fire. -Panromantic demisexual

Elektra (far left, third oldest) Child of Sprx (Biological parent), Nova (Biological Mother) and Gibson (father). Twin of Comet. Older Half sister to Lumen and Saff. Elektra takes a bit after her parent Sprx in terms of personality, being a bit proud, cocky, witty, and tough, though she is interested in both piloting like Sprx, and science like Gibson, specifically medical science. Her favorite treat is banana cream pie. As young kids she and her half sister Lumen were best of friends, this changed as they got older and tension and rivalry began due to the two both developing a crush of their common friend Serenity. This doesn't completely stop them from being close siblings, but they definitely butt heads often. Despite seeming tough and tomboyish, she really likes being feminine, though she's embarrassed to be open about it since she wants to be 'cool like her parents' and she doesn't see girly girl stuff as being 'cool'. if she could get makeup to work well on her fur she most likely would dabble with it. She likes cutesy aesthetics and mermaid themed stuff. Her favorite color is a hot pink. She eventually becomes the main pilot of the team and the medic. Eventually dates Serenity. Her weapon is similar to Sprx’s, but hers can turn around and become like a bow for her to get more piercing shots. -Bi

Lumen (Right, 4th oldest) Child of Sprx (Biological parent) Nova (Mother) and Gibson (Biological father). just a little bit younger than her half siblings Comet and Elektra, but much older than their youngest sibling Saff. Lumen is a little bit shyer than the rest of her siblings, but her confidence coming out during battle. She's tidy, intelligent and logical, but can also be cheeky, stubborn and competitive especially with her half sister Elektra. Lumen and Elektra were very close growing up. This changing a bit as they grew up and both of them developed a crush on their mutual friend, leading to a small rivalry developing, this doesn't completely stop them from being close siblings, but they definitely butt heads often. Lumen quite enjoys science like her father, especially entomology as she is big fan of bugs (much to her father's dismay.) Lumen also enjoys being a tough fighter like her mother and punching things. Her main hobby being her insect collection and study, she also loves training and practicing her fighting skills, she enjoys feeling strong and tough. Her favorite color being a medium shade of lavender. Her favorite treat is banana sundaes (Sprx in search of who gave all his kids bananas). eventually dates a currently unnamed popstar cyborg monkey. Her weapon is similar to her mothers, giant fists except with added spikes on the knuckles that can shoot out attacks and substances similar to Gibson’s drills. -Panromantic demisexual

Sapphire (Middle, youngest) Otherwise known as Saff, is the youngest child of Sprx (parent), Nova (Biological Mother), and Gibson (Biological Father). Youngest sibling to her half siblings Comet, Elektra, and Lumen. Saff is the wild child of the group, energetic and high spirited, quirky, messy, but also highly intelligent, especially in the chemical department and explosives. Genderfluid with pronouns she/they. Saff is a fast talker and can be hard to keep up with if one is not familiar with science terms, the more passionate they are on a subject the quicker they tend to bounce through her words. Saff has barely known life not being surrounded by people, and prefers to keep themselves in the company of others. Feeling quite alone and nervous if by themself for an extended period of time. Besides having an intense interest in explosions, Saff also has interests in the realm of gemology and very much enjoys tennis. Saff's favorite color is turquoise, and her favorite treat is pop rocks. Eventually dates an currently unnamed pyrotechnic engineer -Pan and genderfluid, (she/they)

I was planning on going to SAFF in Fletcher NC but I don't think the Agricultural Center is going to be operational in time for the fiber fair.

so instead I'm planning to use the budget I had set aside and donate it to mutual aid funds in western NC. I'd love to see some of y'all on knitblr join me.

[robyn-runestone]

Saf | High elf | Wild magic sorcerer | She/Her

favorite weapon: She prefers using magic, but when she needs to she can be quite effective with a longbow

style of combat: Slowing her opponents down with cold magic and trying to get as many hits in as possible

most prized possession: A small, green handkerchief that she borrowed off one of her older sisters and forgot to give back. It gives her a lot of comfort in these uncertain times.

deepest desire: Before, she would have told you that she has zero desires of her own and that her life’s work is to help everyone she can. Now, after travelling with her new companions, she desires to see the world with new eyes and experience all the wonderful things she missed as a child.

guilty pleasure: After coming out of her shell a little more, she found that she quite enjoyed pulling harmless pranks on people. Astarion is her most frequent victim, and as much as he hates to admit it, he finds them rather amusing. He even got back at her a few times.

best-kept secret: She is losing control over her wild magic. For most of her life, her family made her use her magic to help others. And as much as she liked making people’s lives better, she was never given a break. She was also never allowed to turn down requests from others, lest she be called selfish. All those years of repressed exhaustion and stress manifested into wild magic surges, and she is having a hard time keeping them in check. She’s terrified that if people find out, they will no longer see her as the strong, responsible person she was always supposed to be.

greatest strength: She’s good at analysing situations and figuring out the best coarse of action.

fatal flaw: She has an impossibly hard time saying no to things. Even the thought of denying someone or taking some time for herself makes her feel physically ill.

favorite smell: Steam

favorite spell or cantrip: Ice knife. It’s simple but effective.

pet peeve: People dancing around a subject and not getting to the point.

bad habit: Constantly denying herself comfort or rest. Karlach sometimes has to trick her into taking a break by giving her hugs so warm and comforting that she doesn’t want to leave. (After she got her engine modified, of course.)

hidden talent: Saf specialises in cold spells, and because of this she has gotten very good at gliding across any ice patches she makes. She can even perform a few twirls and leaps.

leisure activity: Shadowheart once took Saf to a sauna, and it felt like a breath of fresh air to her with the decade’s worth of icy magic building up under her skin. In the rare moments when she decides to relax, she’ll try and seek out any nearby saunas. Simply boiling some water helps a lot as well.

favorite drink: She’s not much of a drinker because she doesn’t want to set off her wild magic, but she does enjoy a good white wine from time to time.

comfort food: Any kind of buttery pastry

favorite person: She will always be close to her two adoptive older sisters, Peri and Ru. They experienced the same childhood as her, and they have always been there for each other through the stress and the obligations.

As for her party members, she’s doesn’t think she could ever choose a favourite. Shadowheart is her first true friend, Karlach is her lover who taught her how to live for herself, and Astarion is the brother she never had.

favored display of affection (platonic and/or romantic): When showing affection, she often displays small, physical gestures such as bumping shoulders and squeezing hands. When she becomes more comfortable, or during significant moments, the gestures escalate to hugging.

fondest childhood memory: During a party her parents threw, her and her sisters managed to sneak off to the balcony to stargaze. It was a nice moment filled with hushed, casual conversation and genuine contentment.

SAFF Celebrations 2008

[procrastinatorproject]

I needed something fluffy tonight, so I continued on the next chapter of Meadow (the story with the giant round hover-cows. Because that is bound to cheer anyone up :D)

“Heads up!”

A thick rope landed in front of Raffi with a thump and drew her out of her silent observation. She looked over to the hoversled where Soji was already attaching the other end of the rope to a purpose-built tether. Behind her, Agnes and Seven were working on a bit of anti-grav plating that kept malfunctioning. If they wanted to get safely over the river, they wouldn’t want it to break down halfway across.

Seven had taken off her jacket and the warm morning light was glittering off the metal running up her right forearm. Her shoulders tensed as she tried to pry off a bit of plating that Ian had clearly soldered in place with great care. The contours of Seven’s muscles were clearly visible through the light fabric of her shirt, and Raffi wondered if she’d be able to see the implant on Seven’s bicep through the short sleeve. The strength of muscle and metal had something deeply alluring and it would be a long time before Raffi would get tired of admiring it.

After a few moments of intense struggle, Seven managed to break apart the recalcitrant bit of plating. She yanked the offending piece off with a grunt and chucked it over her shoulder.

Raffi sighed. That did not bode well for their primary mode of crossing the river…

“How’s that rope coming?” Rios had apparently decided he was done arguing with Elnor. While the young Romulan was still perched on his rock, looking back in the direction of the ship with a pensive frown, Cris had grabbed one of the anchors they were supposed to attach to the rocks and headed over to her.

“I’m not sure it’s gonna be enough.” Raffi gave the knot she’d been working on a final, firm tug, then sat back in the grass. “I’d really rather we didn’t make someone swim through this.”

Rios sat down on one of the large boulders next to her and took a drag from his cigar, pondering the waters in front of him. “Strange to think something this small and innocent-looking could be so dangerous…”

Raffi snorted. “Have you met your girlfriend? Doctor ‘I have never done anything suspicious in my life’?”

Cris gave her an annoyed look. “Agnes isn’t dangerous.”

“I’m not saying it’s a bad thing,” Raffi said, raising her hands in defence. “But look at her! You’d never think she could disable an entire Romulan frigate in fifteen minutes with nothing but a data rod.”

Cris looked over towards Agnes, who was currently half-dangling over the edge of the sled, doing some  upside-down repair on its underside, adorable face scrunched up in deep concentration. Cris’s expression softened, eyes brimming with love and adoration. “Fair enough.”

Raffi smiled. It was wonderful to see her best friend so taken by someone. (And it made her feel a little less bad about constantly getting distracted by her own partner’s thrilling feats of strength…)

Raffi cleared her  her throat and turned away quickly, looking for a topic to steer the conversation into safer waters. “And Enoch was sure this was the only way across?”

Rios sighed and turned back to ponder the problem at hand.

The river they wanted to get across was small enough in places you might call it a creek. It was a band of crystal-clear water, shimmering in the sunlight, burbling over rounded rocks in a way that fit perfectly into its picturesque surroundings. At this particular section, which they had chosen for their crossing, the waters got wider and more shallow, forming something akin to a ford. Except for the middle of the riverbed, where, for a couple of metres, the ground suddenly opened up to a veritable chasm. The unexpected loss of footing and accompanying extreme current had nearly cost Agnes her leg.

“Enoch said the river never gets narrower than four metres across and the fissure runs along its entire length. At least here, the insane currents are slower because the water has so much room to spread out.” Rios took another drag from his cigar. “Crossing anywhere else would be a death sentence.”

“Unless you’re a hover-cow.”

Raffi started and looked up at Elnor, who had walked over to them without making a single sound, even on the gravelly path leading towards the waters.

He was pointing to somewhere further downstream now. “Look!”

When Raffi followed his gesture, she saw a group of hover-cows lope towards the river. As soon as they got to the edge of the waters, the round beasts pushed off the ground with a characteristic gurgle that Raffi had grown to fear, and soared across the obstacle in an elegant arc. On the other side, they continued their bouncy run as if nothing had happened.

Raffi shook her head. “No wonder the locals don’t try to keep them penned in. If not even a deadly river can stop them…”
