Introducing my Wolvden Pack!

I thought I would make a post introducing my pack in Wolvden so far (mostly so I can show off all me wolves ehehe)

For those who want to know who I am on Wolvden: My pack is "Cryptids Eye Pack" and my player name is ClownCryptids ! my user number is #119087

I currently have like 20 wolves in my pack (despite the fact ive only been playing for a few days) so this post is gonna be loooonnggg

Some basic info on how I've been playing so far:

I've decided to go with a "Pagan" (mostly Gaelic) name theme for my wolves, bec I feel like those kind of names fit wolves really well! (I've just been using a Pagan baby name site to name them heh)

I don't really care about how "rare" a wolf's genetics are, I just like the ones that are pretty (though if they have special genetics too that's a bonus!)

I really like cool eyes and I want to collect lots of them! Hence the "Eye" in my pack name!

I have been impulsively buying wolves left and right and the majority of my pack have been bought from the marketplace hehe

My pack's name used to be ClownCryptidsPack but thanks to @oakdrawss gifting me some GC I was able to afford changing it! Ur so epic Oak <3

Now onto my Wolves!!

This is my Pack Leader, Eun (was origionally named Magpie but i changed it to fit the theme, Eun means bird in Gaelic!), I would love to give him a base change but I defo cannot afford :P he would look cool with a Airglow base or somethin..

Onto my first Den: Dogs with Jobs

Darragh, Geir, Lachlan, Imogen and Eirene are my hunting party! Eirene is my second wolf from the tutorial and everyone else I found for cheep on marketplace! They have high levels and stats and are already proficient in their hunting roles so I snatched em up!

for some reason Darragh, despite being at a high level and max Finisher proficiency is terrible at her job. I have no clue why. She has lost so much prey, I let Imogen be a finisher a few times and she actually caught prey! If anyone has any answers as to why Darragh is trash at her job plz tell me, I think she's having a crisis.

(Also ps. Imogen is one of my top faves in the Pack she's so prettyyyy)

Muir and Vireo are my Scouts! Muir has always been a Scout but Vireo used to be a Pupsitter, I was going to sell or chase him bec I bought a better Pupsitter but I needed a new Scout after I had to make my other one a Herbalist! So Viero gets to stay... for now...

Both of these guys are NBWs so I will probably eventually get rid of them

Finally we have Orrin who is my current Stud and Herbalist!

I dont think hes actually super special genetically seeing as I bought him at a very affordable price, but he is so PRETTY look at himmm <3

Imogen is currently pregnant with his pups!

I have him open to Studding I have no clue if anyone will actually want to breed their wolves to him but I will take the chance for some more money ...

Oh! also there's Eirene's puppies but they aren't important I'm going to sell them as fodder they have like 0 markings.

Speaking of puppies, onto the Puppy Horde + Eskel

I have so many puppies and I bought them all (accept Larimar I got them as a gift <3)... I have a problem.

Before the puppies, we have Eskel, hes one of my faves, he's so pretty. Hes also a maxed out Pupsitter, which is good bec I have so many puppies. I bought him, he was affordable, that's all I remember, I almost bought his sister too but I used restraint.

Now Puppies!

Larimar was a gift from Oakdrawwss bec Oak is awesome!!! I wanted him for the cool eyes ofc!

These are the near identical twins Seila and Sloan, I bought them together in the same trade, I mostly just wanted Sloan (the eyes plus pelt looks so cool together) so I may sell Seila at some point... tho she does have a better base (Pewter) than her sister.

Wraith and Daemon were the first wolves I bought, I bought them for the eyes... Wraith's pelt is also very pretty despite it being simple. Im hoping to breed some 3 eyed puppies from Daemon that actually have markings too!

Annnd onto the 4 pups I bought in the middle of last night for 1 SC each bec the seller was doing a give away I think??

The sisters Eirlys and Aoife who look very similar but have a few different colors!

here's what they will look like as adults!

I may sell Eirlys eventually bec I like Aoife's look more ... Maybe i will chase her so someone else will get the chance at having her!

The other two pups are Sigred and Quillan

They are more natural colored and I think they look really pretty as adults!

annnd I think thats all of them... until I buy more HEHEHEHE

I will probably just post updates and stuff, especially if something cool happens!

I finally got around to drawing Bigpaw/nose's future boyfriend! His name is Chicken and he is a coydog!

He sounds like a cowboy... he also likes to steal (from farms)

Could I get a board for a 10-12 year old tomboy girl, lots of outside playing in the forest and trees, loves animals and dinosaurs and cryptids…never done this before but I’ve recently realized I regress back to this age quite often so thank you <3

Here you go!!

Imagine a world where Batman and his family never joined the Justice League but like, both Wonder Woman and Superman know him.

They mention him idly sometimes and even despite not being there (that they know of) he's become the League's cryptid. No one knows who this hero is- Gotham sticks to itself, it's a shithole but it's their shithole- or where they are or anything??

Eventually rumors start going around between the heroes. Is the bat some sort of eldritch being? They overheard the big 2 say something about shadows and undead revival?? Their secret boyfriend? They heard them talk about kids???

It comes to a slight head when during a mind-controlled Superman rampage he gets tackled by a black blur and the next time they see him he's fine?? No mind control??? What?????

"Oh, Bats was passing by and is exasperated about me getting mind controlled again."

Supes that doesn't explain as much as you think it does-

Shattered Sunstone!

I realized that I never posted this design oopsies...

Here's one of my prev kings on Lioden Shattered Sunstone. I took full artistic liberty with this one... he is an OC to me lol

Sunstone is stoic, intimidating and mysterious~ he cares deeply for is pride and will do anything it takes to protect them... he's also a secret softie for those he loves.

(I decided that he and Flowering Wisteria were secret mates... bec I love them... maybe Shattered Citrine is their daughter idk...)

I actually have a lion base based off of this pose... is anyone interested in me putting it up for purchase???

thinking about that theory that peekaboo is a sliver of the wight in the locker, and how maybe that means it maintains a sort of connection to the other part and would be able to see part of what it sees and FUCK. FUCK. I JUST REALIZED IT ONLY KNEW HOW TO SAY PEEKABOO WHEN THEY FIRST MET. OVER AND OVER. HIDING ITS FACE WITH LITTLE HANDS. ALMOST LIKE

IT WAS PLAYING HIDE AND SEEK

Post I will regret making but I hate how people talk about the Touden siblings as being feral and scrungly (Falin) or unhinged and savage (Laios) for... having grown up rural lmao

Will Not touch on Laios today but it is especially... Something. To see people talk about Falin this way. I see her and I see my mother. She would catch grasshoppers in the exact same way Falin did, and would play with dragonflies by holding them by the tips their wings. She would forage on the way home from school to have something to eat after class. She would pick santan flowers with her friends to drink the nectar. She was always in the dirt and the grass. She didn't have the same things to do as the urban kids or the richer kids. When she wanted to watch TV she would look through the neighbors' window

I don't think all people who grew up with more money and/or grew up in urban areas think all people who grew up with less money and/or grew up in rural areas are all dirty and/or primitive but this particular kind of reaction to the Toudens is, to me, a snapshot of the kind of alienation I feel as a media enjoyer on Tumblr

grian should put me in the life series. no one ever talks to or interacts with me but sometimes you see me in the background of people's videos and sometimes my death message appears in chat. no one ever acknowledges this and i'm out by episode 3.

[cryptidclaw]

ok sounds like most ppl like/are fine with me posting abt Wolvden and Lioden (and other games if I get into them) sooo I will probably start doing that!

im going to tag posts with #cryptid plays wolvden / #cryptid plays lioden , both so ppl can find the easier and also so ppl can filter those tags if they dont wanna see those posts!

heh at this point I should just make an overall gaming tag since I also post abt clangen.... #cryptid plays maybe?

I’ve had a ridiculous workload for the past few weeks, but that hasn’t stopped me from reading chapter 16!!

@naffeclipse I want you to know how much I was wailing at this one. Just how quickly the hunter went from referring to them as their “dear friend” to “the demonic cryptid.” And the little moments when they finally began to realize that cryptid isn’t entirely dissimilar from the person they’ve gotten so close with… absolutely phenomenal!!

I’d say I’m at the edge of my seat after this, but I fell off that seat way back in episode four. Regardless, I cant fully articulate just how excited I am to see how things play out!!!

last work i shared with a class: generally liked, but nearly the entire class was confused to some extent by the secondary character alternating he/him and she/her pronouns

new work, soon to be shared with a small group: prose-y piece about a messy situationship between a gay man and lesbian woman
