AVENTURAS

/ˌəven'to͞oɾes/ (ah-ven-TOO-res)

an original Cybertronian colony definitely inspired by seeing @dimorphodon-x and @cuppajj work on their super interesting colonies. this one is sort of themed after volcanoes, extremophiles, and cool rocks

Aventuras was not an intentional colony, instead caused by the crash of a Titan combiner team two million years ago. their gestalt is named Exosphere and formed an enormous Dyson sphere meant for harvesting raw materials, storing energy, and acting as a base of operations and hub for travel, exploration, and research. something went wrong when Exosphere traveled into this solar system, and they broke into their component members. the disastrous accidental nature of this colony means they have little to no record of Cybertron

five Titans crashing on a single planet caused a lot of devastation and sort of cyberformed it at the same time, altering the orbit until it stabilized as a tidally locked world. one side of the planet is sunlocked, an eternal hurricane at the centerpoint caused by the heat of the sun. the other half is shadelocked, frozen over and only lit by the glow of volcanic activity and city lights. most people are equally comfortable in the blinding sun and crushing dark, well adapted to the extreme environments of this world

speaking of volcanoes, the crash also set off a tectonic chain reaction that brutally reformed the continents and caused an extreme amount of volcanism that continues today. the world is covered in volcanoes, hotspots, fault lines, and geothermal vents. the constant ash released into the sky makes the planet rather dim, even in bright country, and blots out the stars in black country. this is not a problem for Aventuri mecha, who consider a stroll through lava to be no big deal :)

all the precious resources Exosphere had collected got dumped into the planet's mantle when the Titans crashed, and the volcanic activity keeps stirring things up and bringing materials to the surface. as such, Aventuras is ridiculously rich in resources. highly pure and powerful energon is plentiful, and materials like crysmag, ununtrium, and g-metal are found in high concentrations. the Aventuri, without knowledge of or contact with any other Cybertronian civilization, have no idea they're rich and take it for granted, treating these things as normal. they in fact require the more potent Aventuri energon to function, and would slowly weaken and starve on a diet of Cybertronian energon

the five Titans are named Triumpha, Odysseus, Stalwart, Fairwell, and Adamant. they were all pretty damaged in the crash and remain mostly dormant, so they haven't formed Exosphere in two million years. a lot of Exosphere's original staff were killed, and the survivors had a lot of trouble trying to mentor the mecha forged from sudden hotspots springing up from the Titans, especially since these hotspots were usually inside literal volcanic hotspots, and the newforged mecha were bobbing right up out of the lava! they did manage to convey who each Titan was and their importance to the planet and population, so the Titans are well cared for, but other information like their origins as an expedition launched by the Cybertronian Venture Association (the origin of the name Aventuras), the nature of Exosphere's disaster, and the camaraderie between each Titan has been mangled or mythologized over the millennia

there's a whole host of frametypes native to Aventuras! flightframes, grounders, toolformers, beastformers, multichangers, and others like aquaformers are all forged there, from defined hotspot zones. no combiners though (ironic when forged from the combiner Titans), and veeery few space-capable frames. but they all have two things in common:

each of them are forged with inlaid patterns in their armor called inclusions, filled with minerals and sometimes native metals, as if they were gilded with the riches of their colony. obsidian is the most common, and diamonds, olivines, garnets, basic quartzes, and sulfurs are also fairly common. any mineral is possible, even those that don't form in organic activity, with the exception of organic byproducts like amber, pearl, or fossils. each pattern of inclusions is unique to the individual like a fingerprint. crystal energon is the rarest type of inclusion and is highly prized, even sometimes given religious significance

considering this is a planet of extremophiles, all frames are "heavy duty" in some way. compared to the average Cybertronian, Aventuri are broader, thicker, stronger, and more durable. their armor plating is visibly bulkier and their construction heavier, even for petite frames. their alt modes will reflect this, as a grounder is more likely to be a truck, durable rover, or armored van than some sleek racer, and a flightframe will be a hardy jet instead of a light prop plane that wouldn't get anywhere against hurricane winds. beastformer alt modes reflect this as well, being exclusively extremophile species ranging from giant tardigrades to deep sea creatures to Andean flamingos

there are some exceptions to these rules, but that's the baseline for Aventuri characters

the majority of the population are also outliers of some kind! in fact, the "normal" people are more outliers than those with gifts or special abilities. thanks to the manifold cyberforming influence of the Titans and the abundance of energy, the hotspots produce very strong sparks and frames. point-one-percenters would be more accurately called fifty-five-percenters here. loadbearers, cityspeaking-capable processors, Titanmasters, and other special variants aren't unusual. again, there are exceptions to this rule, but by and large the standard of normal for Aventuri characters is being an outlier of some kind

the ability that probably a good 85-95% of everyone forged on Aventuras has naturally is extreme temperature tolerance, which is handy considering their particular planet. wading through lava is just a thing that (nearly) anybody can do, it's almost impossible to melt them, and it's not unusual for a regular job, commute, or living space to be situated partially or fully just in some active volcanoes. their main concern with volcanic activity is debris impact and earthquake damage, not heat or poisonous gasses, and nearly everybody has vent filters good enough to take care of the ash no problem. likewise, a lot of them are difficult to freeze. their metal wont go brittle in the negatives, they can produce enough internal heat to maintain their functions pretty well, and really only have to worry about the ice chewing up their internals rather than the actual cold. a good 80% of Aventuri are essentially immune to both heat and cold, with the majority of the rest essentially immune to one or the other, often depending on which side of the planet they were forged on

the Aventuri have split into five city-states, each assuming that their Titan must be prioritized over the others, and thus anyone forged from or living in a different Titan may be suspect. they've engineered social and political animosity between their societies from the moment each settlement expanded enough to meet one another, contrary to what Exosphere's surviving staff tried to teach them and to what the dazed Titans themselves actually want. they'll still work together when faced with a worldwide threat, but tensions will run high the whole time. most of the population lives either in the Titan capital cities, or in major cities founded in or around volcanoes. many other settlements exist only for mining, tourism, defense, or a similar functional reason, with a lot of the resources or profits funneled back to the capital

Triumpha is the Titan of the city-state Divinex, and she forms the capital city Jubilee. the Divinexi High Court is led by the Premier Belladonna. it's a very elegant, traditional society that emphasizes grace, strength, and a good public face, all of which are upheld by bitterly strict social hierarchies, stricter than similar hierarchies in the other city-states

Odysseus is the Titan of the city-state Ulysses, and he forms the capital city Albedo City. the Ulyssean Complement is led by the Captain Ironclad. most of Ulyssean territory is ocean, with vast, mostly self-governed networks of migratory ships, rooted seabed camps, and moving settlements across the ice

Stalwart is the Titan of the city-state Valius, and she forms the capital city Borion. the Valian Prefecture is led by the Praetors Bequest and Bequeath. their culture values nobility, responsibility, and chivalry, fancying themselves the protectors of their state and their people like valiant knights

Fairwell is the Titan of the city-state Nova Spectra, and they form the capital city Darkeye. the Spectral Circle is led by the Guide Crux. it's a quiet society, withdrawn from interstate politicking, focused more on the spirituality and sanctity of the world at large, valuing the eye of the eternal hurricane in their territory as a pilgrimage site

Adamant is the Titan of the city-state Temperon, and he forms the capital city Vindixus. the Temperic Mastery is led by the Chief Officer Deepwar. this is the most industrialized society, with a lot of weapons development and reckless experimentation, soot-stained ice dampening the explosions

unfortunately for the city-states who want to stare each other down, Aventuras is faced with worldwide threats. before Exosphere's crash, the planet was a Vok experiment. upon discovering about half a million years ago their observations on the developing organic life had been ruined by an invasion of Cybertronian colonists, the irritated Vok began a long term revenge campaign. pirates, mercenaries, and other alien ne'er-do-wells have been hired or encouraged to raid Aventuras and rain terror on the ignorant population, who have no idea what this retaliation is for. the attacks aren't constant but they've been ramping up, with the likes of Lord Gyconi and Zabra behind more costly raids, with "prizes" taken. on at least two occasions, the Vok have managed to organize a complete planetary blockade and bombardment, and the Aventuri managed to scrape together enough interstate cooperation to drive them off. this threat is a major reason the city-states continue to work together on defense development and production despite internal animosity

some of the Vok experiments did in fact survive, as organic life still exists on Aventuras! most of it is hardy plant life and invertebrates like bugs and crustaceans, with a lot of undersea species too. but in some small, hidden parts of the world, larger lifeforms survived. minor mountaintop forests and tundra with a variety of animals are scattered throughout the dim country between light and dark, along the Sunstill Isthmus and the Venera Mountains especially. none of them are sapient, but all of them have adapted to the extreme conditions of the planet. some people have taken it upon themselves to protect and preserve these rare gardens, so organic life has some hope yet

Aventuri is a planet of industry, both because of their natural abundance of resources and because of their minor arms race with one another and their alien attackers. they aren't really capable of prolonged spaceflight yet, and there are very few flightframes able to escape orbit, so that's been a scientific pursuit for the last few centuries. the main goal at the moment is to reach the planet's five teeny tiny moons. with the increased level of observation and study lately, some folks are noticing that one of the moons may be more than meets the eye...

if they're successful or lucky enough, who knows? maybe Cybertron may discover its lost gilded colony

that's the basic overview, feel free to ask questions or if you need clarification i can explain more. i'll be populating this colony with ocs, i've already got a few down

#sorry for tagging you i just wanted to credit my inspiration! ill edit the tags out if you want!#aventuras #transformers #transformers fan colony #macaddam #TFOC #to be clear this isnt a snap thing this is a general thing that can be tweaked to fit whatever canon

My college AU explained

Jotaro, Kakyoin, Polnareff and y/n all collectively rent a house near their university. It's somewhere in the US.

Joseph and Suzie have an open marriage because she wanted a few side pieces but Joseph turned into a massive slut

DIO and Jonathan are vampires. Diego is DIO's cousin who just shows up sometimes.

Josuke isn't Joseph's son, he's a distant relation of Jonathan's but everyone just calls him cousin. He started a cult for the sole purpose of performing "miracle healings" with Crazy Diamond

Stands exist here but nobody really cares about fighting or world domination or anything

The Pillarmen are like, cryptids. Everyone knows they're there somewhere but nobody messes with them either because Joseph tried and came back missing half an arm

Morioh is still a hub for peaceful stand users

Kira moved to the US because it's easier to fit in with nutjobs like Americans

He hasn't been caught yet

Josuke travels a lot for Cult Reasons™

Golden Wind and Stone Ocean haven't happened

Dio has three toddlers and an infant to look after because he didn't practice safe sex and the mothers wanted nothing to do with him

Giorno is the baby

He tries very hard to be a good dad

Jonathan helps

Caesar's alive because fuck you

He's Joseph's other partner and tries to keep him responsible

Kakyoin's English is better than Jotaro and Polnareff's

Joseph found Shizuka in a box in an alley near his and Suzie's main house in Manhattan and they both absolutely dote on her

Abdul and Polnareff are dating and everyone knows that but Polnareff

Abdul visits the house like, all the time

He practically lives there

Polnareff and Kakyoin are like, total gym rats

Jotaro is just Like That™

Iggy, Petshop, Coco Jumbo, Stray Cat, and Danny are all lovingly cared for by Jonathan

They talk shit about DIO all the time

Bucciarati is in the middle of Doing Normal Tweenager Things™ in Napoli

Jotaro actually really likes dinosaurs and likes Diego more than DIO, which DIO really hates

Abdul is really into electric swing and teaches Polnareff swing dancing

Jotaro drinks tea like a fish, he hardly ever drinks water, just tea

Diavolo and his nonsense is happening in Italy so it's not a problem until later

Issue 7, 5/31/2023 - The Overseer

This week’s news is once again accompanied by a PDF version of your latest news brought to us once again by the lovely Cheer! Pick it up right here for your viewing pleasure!

The Hermitcitizen Hub is still going strong! As of this week, those in charge are looking for applications to mod a potential minecraft server- more to test the waters and see how much interest there is than anything, but check the announcements channel nonetheless!

The Incident: Whats happened so far, and what to look out for

By AzureClouds

As many of you know by now, Grian and Scar have accidentally blown up Doc’s Tunnel Bore when they took a short break from building. While the Tunnel Bore had been tested and shown to be both Grian proof and Scar proof, it was not prepared, nor safe, for the two of them at the same time and it has been theorized by many that it is impossible to create a machine immune to the duo’s combined chaos.

The two soon attempted to fix it using their limited Redstone knowledge after a brief panic, mainly using photos of the Tunnel Bore from before the incident and experience watching other Redstoners building similar machines; they sadly failed after several attempts and opted to leave gifts instead! Amongst these gifts where diamonds, ScarLand merchandise and even TCG cards!

Unfortunately, when they showed Doc the destroyed Tunnel Bore on a tour of the Perimeter, he was not swayed by their gifts or numerous compliments, although they complimented his base and his redstone. Grian and Scar then flew out a pre-prepared escape hole, only narrowly avoiding Doc.

Although Doc enjoyed the ScarLand merch , especially the hats, he still decided that revenge must be taken against them, in the form of haunting the two trouble makers. He began by making an Update Skipper, a simplified version of the Update Suppressor to shrink Grian’s Nether portal to one block, and turning it sideways. Grian’s portal was invisible from approach, and according to inside sources, decided to keep it, and has not attempted to fix it. He has instead decided to take this opportunity to work on the back of the Crastle.

Afterwards, Doc began work on the Wither Reactor, an especially dangerous machine, after receiving five stacks of Wither skulls courtesy of Impulse. In addition to plans for using it for Concrete farming, he added a feature allowing him to collect blue skulls, as although they are rarer and more destructive, loose their extra properties once unloaded.

Soon after its construction, the Wither Reactor provided Doc with enough skulls, and he began placing them over ScarLand forming an ominous cloud over the “Happiest place on Hermitcraft.” Doc furthered his prank by teaming up with Bdubs, after realizing the latter had left horses to freely roam the area as revenge for the death of his first horse. They chose to challenge Scar to a TCG game, and whilst Bdubs and Scar went against each other in Docs arena, the Anvil Canon had been set to randomly launch anvils into the arena, several of them nearly taking out Scar, who was none the wiser, thanks to Bdubs and Docs quick cover ups.

Additionally, many of the citizens residing and working in Grian’s Base, as well as Scarland, have already temporarily relocated, and those who have not done so yet are advised to make plans to do so or prepare for hauntings in and around their places of residence and work.

Now onto other news below the cut!

Gurhulk Begins Hermit Citizen Hub Build in Minecraft

Recorded by Cirrus, the Shoebill, written by Lydia

Hermit Citizen Hub member and builder Gurhulk has begun a project to construct a digital architectural version of the Hermit Citizen Hub through Minecraft. While the Hermit Citizen Hub did not previously have a set blueprint for a virtual building, it currently exists as a Discord Server for Hermitcraft viewers, artists, writers, musicians, builders, and engineers. This Discord Server was created by Tumblr user Ink-Ghoul after they had drawn up a Citizen I.D. card template for anyone wishing to create a fictional character to live on the Hermitcraft Server. Since April 11th, the Hermit Citizen Hub Discord Server has amassed approximately 625 members.

Creating a Hermit Citizen involves a few simple decisions, with participants choosing a name, species, occupation, and home base for their brainchild that they bring to the Server, in addition to determining a few Minecraft-related skills for said Citizen. These skills involve building, combat, engineering (Redstone), agility (movement), navigation (exploration), farming, mining, and prank execution. Afterward, an incredible amount of members have enjoyed throwing their Citizens into scenarios that could easily fit the tone of several genres of media and entertainment, including but not limited to prime-time comedy television shows, soap operas, teenage drama novels, workplace comedies, psychological thrillers, horror films, and fantasy serials.

While the creation of a Citizen to hypothetically live in the world of Hermitcraft may seem odd to those unfamiliar with making fan characters, those who have participated have stated that it is a deeply enriching experience for their inspiration to formulate extensive backstories, artwork, writing pieces, and thought-provoking character traits, as well as build interpersonal connections with other fans within this Server’s welcoming environment. The presence of Hermits is often inconsequential to many of the Citizens, as almost all of them have entirely separated arcs, homes, and personalities from their Affiliated Hermits.

The Hermit Citizen Hub Discord Server encompasses channels for artwork, writing pieces, music, and a brainstorming area for participants to ask for suggestions regarding their character creation. Perhaps one of the most significant implementations of the community center is the addition of the Citizen Connections. This feature has helped to kickstart a great number of stories for the majority of Hermit Citizens who are searching for their place among their fellow residents. Notable Citizen Connections Groups with high amounts of activity include the Birds of The Birdhouse, the Sculk Research Team, the Decked Out Crew, the staff of The Overseer, the Scarland Staff, and those affiliated with Watchers among many others.

Gurhulk’s Hermit Citizen is a robot named G.U.R. who works as a caretaker of his maker, Grumbot, living in his cave. He excels in engineering (Redstone) and building. He joined Hermitcraft in Season 7 and functions as a walking redstone torch, in addition to containing multiple decades of knowledge. He keeps a sample of the amethyst that infected the Hermatrix so that he may continue to analyze it. The design of Gurhulk’s Citizen is a humanoid robot standing at six feet tall with a red and gray color scheme and sleek mechanical frame, hearkening back to the days of Isaac Aasimov’s robot science fiction, especially that of Caliban, the archetypal tale of a robot grappling with its place in human society and the advancement of robots to fully sentient beings. G.U.R. arrived on our Discord Server on April 15th.

The Hermit Citizen Hub Build is not the first digital architectural representation of a structure on the Server. The previously completed Build was The Birdhouse, a highly detailed and meticulously crafted tree house with a fully decorated interior. The original concept art for The Birdhouse was drawn by Morph, and a fully realized Minecraft version of said Birdhouse was hand-crafted by Discord User Redfeather, creator of the laboratory technician, mob biologist, and animal behaviorist Citizen of the same name.

This Birdhouse includes several floors all with different purposes to be the quintessential artistic rendition of the Haven for the Avians. It includes a communal kitchen, infirmary and bird bath, living room, library, sleeping quarters with hammocks and beds, an observatory, a trellis, an outdoor cafe, a large community table at the very top with a beautifully colored stain-glass roof, and all of the luxuries an Avian could ever want. The inside is filled with couches, books, knick-knacks, study areas, plant life, bird toys, and bean bag chairs, and the outside includes private conversational areas, a tire swing, a parkour challenge, and landing pads for new and returning visitors.

To Gurhulk, the Hermit Citizen Hub is a place to interact with numerous wonderful people from the Hermitcraft fan community. Here, he was able to connect with them more so than he was through his Twitter page, finding this as the ideal community center of his escapades. The digital architecture of the actual Build is intended to appear similar to an inside marketplace, taking heavy inspiration from Greek architectural styles. Gurhulk states that he is “definitely going for the Big Quartz Build,” as the idea had come across him during one of his work days. He did not note any specific inspirations for the project, though he had previously seen The Birdhouse. With the use of the Immersive Portals modification, Gurhulk plans to make the structure on a large scale from the inside to represent the various channels on the Server. Therefore, its interior will be much larger than its exterior. He sees this location as a place for Hermit Citizens to come together outside of their affiliated bases, as well as being a gathering place for various groups such as The Overseer staff, SSS, and SUS, among multiple other groups.

With the attitude of taking one step at a time and seeking ways to enhance his work, he sees this as a perfect opportunity to show how he has improved over time. The project has been in the works since Wednesday, May 24th, when he asked for other members’ input about color ideas and began putting together the modifications he would need for the structure. On the following day, he confirmed that the other members would enjoy the use of the Greek-inspired architectural style with a blue and cyan color palette, and began building its front porch section. Modifications for the project have also been implemented, including the Create Modification, Chipped, Immersive Portals, and MrCrayfish’s Furniture Modification, along with a few others. Due to the number of modifications being used, Gurhulk is uncertain about the feasibility of an efficient world download but stated that he would consider it when the project is finished.

Gurhulk’s representation of the Hermit Citizen Hub in architectural format is one we intensely look forward to, as it takes an analytical and innovative individual to translate these features of such a large online space to a physical version within Minecraft, and a creator with an unfathomable amount of gumption to present the result as an intended location for the entire population of the Server. In addition to a description of the overall beginning stages, the community has received two photographs from Gurhulk of the initial progress of the Hermit Citizen Hub Build. These photographs depict the front porch area and the front balcony. These photographs were taken on May 25th, May 26th, and May 30th.

Gurhulk welcomes all feedback from his fellow Server members. We wish him the best of luck as he continues to show his building prowess in his newest constructive venture!

Soup Cats, Legit or Souptaster?

By Nes

Recently opened by the Pearlescentmoon affiliates with locations across the server near any and all Twinkly Trash outlets, Soup Cats is a surprisingly punny store selling a variety of goods of the soup variety, including soup themed clothing. Although innocent at first glance, upon further inspection, some anomalies arise. The most pressing being that of all the workers being cats or cat hybrids, which seems quite normal until you consider these people were not cat hybrids last week. Join reporter and writer Nes as she visits one of these locations to uncover the truth beneath the soup.

Upon first entering their shopping district location, I was immediately overwhelmed by the cozy yet chaotic nature of the interior, followed shortly by the equally chaotic nature of two workers named Zera and Larimar. Although it took some adjustment, I did find myself enjoying the atmosphere after some time, especially the cozy seating and cat cafe vibes that came with the various felines lounging in and around the establishment.

Before placing my order, I had the chance to speak with Head Chef Zera and Head of Marketing Larimar. Apparently, they had been expecting me. During a conversation laced with soup-based puns and general excitement for the store being in the paper, I was unable to learn much outside of my already existing knowledge on the establishment. Regardless, I enjoyed my time with them both immensely and highly recommend visiting just to talk to them and all the other staff!

This article isn’t about the staff and their amazing hospitality. This is about the soup and the secrets that lie within. Upon Larimar’s suggestion, I liked and soupscribed to Pearlescentmoon before ordering the mystery soup, as suggested by Zera. After ordering, they assured me that the meal was completely safe, which did not bode well for me, but I carried on despite my hesitance.

The soup I received was deceivingly appetizing in appearance, and I was left alone to enjoy my meal. Interestingly, there was a faint glow radiating from the otherwise plain looking potato soup. I would be lying if I claimed I wasn’t slightly concerned for my well being as I took my first bite, but despite the anomalies, it tasted fine! In fact, I’d be willing to bet it was the best soup I had ever had.

Overall, I would rate the experience a 10/10, with amazing service staff and even better food. Not only that, but as I left, I was able to buy myself my very own soup themed shirt! I had a wonderful time and meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow*

*Editor's Note: The Overseer would like to apologize, it seems the author of this article was turned into a cat and has left to pursue a career at Soup Cats. We wish them the best!

Lost and Found

By Virtual

The following items were collected from across the server over the past week. If you would like to report an item missing, or if you recognize any of the below items as your own, please contact us at [email protected]* *not a real email address

Item 1: A lodestone compass, Found in a pile of barrels in front of of Bdubs’ castle. The pile was eleven barrels high at its tallest and seventeen barrels wide at its widest. The barrels were completely empty except for a barrel at the center, which contained a single lodestone compass. Following the compass led to a bedrock pocket in the perimeter, which did not contain a lodestone but did contain Item 2. The compass is now spinning endlessly with no apparent target in sight. If the compass is not collected, it will be returned to its pile of barrels for Bdubs to handle as he sees fit.

Item 2: A pair of sunglasses with six lenses, found on the floor of the Perimeter. These glasses, when held up to the eye, allow a player to view set locations in six different servers, with each server corresponding to a different lens. Citizens reported splitting headaches and double vision for up to an hour after use. The glasses have been placed inside an ender chest for safekeeping, and will be removed only upon request for return.

Item 3: A bag of seven polyhedral dice, found on the roof of Cleo’s megabase. When one die is taken out of the bag, another die of identical shape but different color takes its place. There seems to be no end to the amount of dice the bag can produce, as careful tests (read: holding it upside down for an hour) have demonstrated the bag’s regenerative capabilities to be mildly impossible. If the bag belongs to you, make sure not to slip on the dice-covered floor when you come to pick it up.

The Museum Situation

By Ilea

A few weeks ago, we here at The Overseer provided you with a comprehensive guide to Cleo's fabulous collection. This week we are covering the escalation of the "museum situation."

You may ask what “museum situation” means, and I am glad to say that it is my name for the current and past events surrounding all museums on Hermitcraft. That’s right, there is more than just Cleo’s collection, and this is less a guide for the rest and more of a history rundown on them.

Starting with Cub’s museum, we are happy to inform you that there are a few parkour courses inside and outside the facility. Another great part of it is the experience that it provides you when getting from the third to the second floor with the use of slime blocks. Just this time, we encourage you to jump from the barriers.

Regarding the exponents, Cub has collected all of the easter eggs from the Easter Egg Hunt, including the Gold Eggs used in the final round to determine the champion. The redaction of The Overseer would like to remind you that said Egg Hunt took place over a year ago.

Another fine thing you may find in that museum is an interactive music display, where you can listen to important music discs from Hermitcraft history. For example, “The Ballad of Joe Hills” is there. Most of those discs, as well as multiple heads of Empires members, were collected from the Christmas area.

Speaking of collected heads, due to the kingmaking and dungeoncreating nature of BdoubleO, he has his own display in the museum that consists of his head, his original bed, and a crescent moon made by Cub to represent the nature of the exhibit.

Hermit history is not the only thing collected in the museum as we heard that there are some rare ores on display there.

For now, the last part of the exhibition is a small stand for King Ren that involves some old tomatoes that were thrown at him, a statue representing him, and the Invite to the Vault Party that started the downfall of monarchy.

If you want to take a more comprehensive look at the story surrounding King Ren, we are happy to inform you that across the road from Cub’s museum, you can see the Royal museum focuses only on that part of our history. Cleo managed to find absolute rarities to put in said museum, including a replica of the actual King’s throne and a replica of the cage in which Ren was put after the King’s Vault events.

Aside from those showstopping replicas on the parter, we can find all of the crystals and infamous pumpkins from the King’s Quest time. Next to them, there is a representation of the rewards from it. On that same level, we can find a head of the good King Ren, a replica of the tiny crown, and right beside them is an entire exhibit dedicated to the Vault Party, which has the original “No, No, No” music disc, the Invite, a crystal from the quest, and head of one of twelve Xisumas that are to blame for said party.

On the other side of the throne, we have a representation of the Bad King Ren’s rule, including Gigapies™, Royal Emeralds, affirmations written by the King Ren himself, armours representing those given to the contestants in King’s Vault, and the original Sword of Lady Cleo from that event.

Upstairs, members of King’s Court are represented in small displays. With them, there are original diamond glasses that belonged to Lady Cleo. The last exhibit shows the further story of the now only figurative monarchy on Hermitcraft.

We are glad to inform you that both museums are looking for donations both in the form of items and diamonds. We are also happy to inform you that Jevin already is trying to profit off this and that the original King Ren’s netherite armor from the King’s Vault event is still on display in Pearl’s Trash Shop.

After the situation escalates a bit, we will give you another short rundown on the museums with further developments in both collections.

ADVERTISEMENTS

(1) Not flashed out yet. But yk very Estonia-centric clicker game. Web/app/desktop. Mostly text / UI based game.

(2) Anon feedback would be two-way fully anonymous. Basically you would create a "hub" with a secret URL, without login, and then you would give a public URL to others. They could then come have "anon ask" but as a 2-way, private conversation. Obviously there would be some elementary spam/hate filtering tools. Web only.

(3) the point of this resource management strategy roguelike would be to realize it's literally impossible to habituate Mars, and you will have to fail, move back in time, and start breaking laws of physics one by one until you "succeed". Web/app. Mostly text / UI.

(4) Like above, but with failing to deal with climate change. More of a world/politics sim. Web/app/desktop. Mostly text / UI.

(5) 2D or 3D game where you're on an Earth ravaged by war and climate change apocalypsi, but like. No one's mad, there's no supermutants. You just pick a broom and start reclaiming the land, demolishing skyscrapers, tilling the soil. Maybe Stardew Valley vibes. Mostly desktop, maybe app/web.

(6) Similar to Liero / Noita / Clonk games - sideways 2D digging into the ground, but you have to rush and you have limited resources. No diamond pickaxe Minecraft, you have to be clever to rescue survivors. Serious vibe, but not grimdark; more uplifting that people help each other. 2D. Mostly desktop, maybe app/web.

(7) This would have optionally infinite / procedurally generated levels just to mess around and do like car backflips, but also some hand-made world where you could just drive slowly and obey all the traffic laws. No competitive racing. 3D. Desktop only.

(8) Depressive adventure-ish game / visual novel / JRPG-like time management. Climate change related, of course, but the main point is that besides money, you have to save water credits, and can't buy almost anything without them. Not sure what would be the story besides running away to the countryside and learning survival skills; that feels like cheap. Mostly text / UI. Web/app/desktop.

(I have dozens more ideas but these are the ones fresh in my mind now.)

Update post

We felt like we weren't our authentic self and we're super uncertain as to how to go about Tumblr :/ should we all have separate streams or stream under one acc and just say who's out so we can all share in benefits as we do with the body.

That's seems to be the best course of action but I'm really...me so I like to ramble a lot about witchcraft and just chatter and have fun be wildin engage

But Prince likes to be more to himself preformer, light tangents about spirituality, public meditations, spiritual and energetic work

You see where we clash yeah?

So @princesmeadow @demigoddisaster and @sigmashub are the ones considered bc @henasse doesn't seem to give a shit about going live and kinda hates it

Also my streams can be at like 4am being super cryptic and Princes more like poetic and Spiritual

I Channle chaos and like weird core vibes/atreamerboy

And Prince channels energy in the form of emotion, aura, music, a lot of Pisces there drifts off into thought very whimsical

And we just don't mesh in that way I always talk over him or he suppresses me and it just makes us sad.

So I'm thinking maybe, we have our own accounts because I have a problem with using social media like a goldrush content creator. And I don't want my habbit to ruin Princes streams meant for dedication and spiritual practice

Because like if we do share an account I'll just want to collect a bunch for the diamonds and be seen as important. Where I'm trying to rework how I handle social media and use it as a non competitive genuine hobby

That's why I picked Tumblr live because there's no expectation to preform like YouTube or twitch or like no time limit like TikTok or whatever you can literally do what I did and film a door at 4am and get like 11 people with you that's so cool to me like

I wasn't alone at 4am I was watching a door with my 11 pals

Picture that 11 people staring at a door for 24 minutes or smth

Anyways I don't think Prince would want that on his blog he's wayyyy more spiritual and we have totally different intrests.

For both accounts I am going to link @sigmashub for bio and stash posts so it'll be a hub that's basically just about us 3 as a system

Also dw I will add a tag so you can block my going live and live ended posts

Anyways so I'll be tagging all Live related posts as #DeosLive or #Deos Live

Ended or started it'll be #DeosLive or #Deos Live

Not everyone wants to know and it can get super spammy I want my dash to look chaotic /pos not chaotic /neg

So basically if you guys are interested in Witchy rants

@demigoddisaster

I do more ADHD tangents and talk to audience or do other shit and chat like hangout type shit

@princesmeadow

Prince is more devotional acts and focusing on performance with some drifting, vision reflection and like wandering off astrally

You should check him out!

And @sigmashub

Is going to be our WIP for today to get all our accounts linked up together /haha D.I.D fun/

It'll be the bio acc for everyone as well as a short about and couple other things like social links ect.

Fun fun!

Ransome last thing

a gift that represents us

Prince:

Henasse:

Amadeos:
