[thechaotichorselord]

lazy angst art (some lore)

lil info under read more

this comic takes place a little bit farther into the UG!au, where Stanley and Narrator have to fight for their lives. Narrator has revealed his past and Stanley holds big resentment to him.

Nar was almost killed once, which jumpstarted the entire “incident” i bring up a lot. Technically if he had been killed the game would’ve been thrown out of balance, allowing [TBA] to [TBA]. Without Nar, Stanley wouldn’t have been allowed to exist. Stanley was created by the crows as a protagonist, basically to be the PERFECT protagonist. They did everything to him to make him correct, but oddly he was imperfect in every way.

Nar became fascinated by the prospect of a perfect NPC by nature NOT being perfect at all, and was able to convince the Crows to let Stanley exist and have his own game even after the “incident”.

So he’s responsible for Stanley’s life. His existence. And he regrets what he did, and regrets ever thinking he could make his story enjoyable for Stanley. Regrets thinking he could move on from his past.

He regrets living and dragging Stanley into his own mistakes.

Which Little Pocket/Whittleton ("Big Pocket") Convenience Stores are the best to loiter around?

There's a convenience store not too far from Riley and Violette's house (yes, the same one where Riley terrorizes the employees with her drink concoction) that hugs the edge for the forest since its closer to the edge of town, so the store is regularly visited by animals nabbing whatever they can. Like a decent amount of the stores stock goes to them (It's very enriching for the employees)

[arolesbianism]

Y'know I should rly do a comb through of the wiki and correct any mistakes in the logs cause even if I'm too lazy to add all the ones not there it would make double checking the ones that are on there much easier

Ghostfuckers Massive Lore Dump & More...

I'm stuck at work doing the graveyard shift, so I decided to make a list of all the lore that we learned in Ghostfuckers. Plus some extra cuz my fave character is Blitz, and I love him...

It has been one month since the events of Apology Tour. Blitz and Stolas have been NO CONTACT for one whole month.

I.M.P is on the verge of bankruptcy due to Blitzø’s poor spending habits. Past Due Notices are pasted on the whiteboard. Millie confirms later on that Blitzø has not paid her in a month.

(Honestly same, I also cope by buying stupid shit, but sweetie you gotta pay your employees)

Confirmation that Blitzø (at least by the beginning of Ghostfuckers) has given up on pursuing a relationship with Stolas.

Millie confirmed that there is only Heaven or Hell, there is no such thing as Purgatory. And there is no such thing as Ghosts.

The fact that Millie had to stress it out several times, even to Blitz that ghosts don't exist... is insane.

Confirmation that Blitzø is still following M&M on their dates, and that once again... Blitz sees love and relationships as a transaction.

Blitzø’s illiteracy and possibly having dyslexia is the gift that keeps on giving.

(Fun fact: Brandon Rogers is confirmed dyslexic)

Confirmation that Blitzø has genuine fears of M&M getting hurt when they do go on missions.

Blitzø’s mom is confirmed to have died from the fire, just in case it wasn't obvious already.

Confirmation that Moxxie met Blitz before he met Millie, and by extension, Blitzø adopted Loona before he met Moxxie.

Further confirmation that Blitzø owning his own business as an imp makes him an outlier.

The fact that Blitzø has to stress to Millie that he does in fact own his own business, but she keeps denying the possibility that, that even exists is insane.

Confirmation that I.M.P began the moment Blitzø was in possession of the grimoire. Therefore, Blitzø had Millie, Moxxie, and Loona to provide for by the time he met Stolas

So much of Hell's Hierarchy and the suppression of imps in general, is ingrained into Millie that she genuinely believes that she isn't deserving to work in an old ass building located in the Pride Ring (where the sinners live)

Confirmation that imps (and by extension hellhounds) are expected to work for someone higher up, whether it be the Sins, the Ars Goetia, or even other sinners and hellborn

Confirmation once again that Blitzø is genuinely considered an outlier among imps. Him owning a business gives him a sense of prestige among others of his own kind.

Confirmation that Millie's entire life is all thanks to Blitzø: a husband, a career, a future, a best friend. ❤️

Further confirmation of the existance of Blitzø’s mask. (People were genuinely surprised when they realized that there was more to Blitzø than asshole)

Confirmation of the existance of infestor demons that are presumably from the Envy Ring.

Confirmation that Cash Fuckzo was an abusive piece of shit that not only manipulated his own child, but physically abused him when he had fresh burn marks on his wrist

Confirmation that Cash Fuckzo was the man that kept Blitzø and Fizz apart for so long, essentially the reason why these men hated each other for 15 years.

Confirmation that even seeing M&M happy and in love genuinely hurts him because (in his mind) he could never have what they have.

Confirmation that the events of Seeing Stars hurt Blitzø’s feelings and reignites that fear his daughter hates him.

The amount of remorse, guilt, and regret this man feels is so palpable that it can power an entire fucking city.

By the end of the episode Blitzø makes a promise to Millie to stop trying to become their "third". Millie is shocked by his answer and genuinely did not expect it.

Blitzø confirms to Millie that he does indeed have feelings for Stolas, but he's aware enough to know that he still fucked things up with him.

The character development that Blitzø showed this episode was actually insane, and I am so proud of him. He has a long way to go before he could forgive himself for the fire and hate himself less, but nonetheless I am so proud of him.

Also, in case you were wondering my favorite part of the episode was Millie's apology to Blitzø.

can we know more about the future au👀👀❓️

Alright I've been waiting for this, get ready for a really long lore dump... (click on keep reading so I don't clutter up the tags)

Future AU takes place 200 years after when-ever the main events of the game are. This would make Shadow 215 years old and Sonic 216 years old. Sonic: Sonic was created by a cult of former ARK scientists who wanted to create a version of Shadow specifically to be a weapon and without the Black Arms DNA. They used the DNA of a god and were successful (obviously.) However, Sonic at one point lost control of his power and destroyed everything, this event made him lose his memory. The first thing he saw when he woke up was the nature around him, creating his free-spirited nature (contrast to how Shadow woke up seeing Maria for the first time.) All this lore is here to explain why Sonic is immortal. However because Sonic is immortal and the public is unaware of this, and basically the gods have their own secret cult that gave Sonic an ultimatum. Basically he could A) Die at around 40 but keep his freedom, however the earth he loves may one day be destroyed due to the lack of him protecting it. B) He lives long enough (around 110) for people to realize he is immortal like Shadow, and not wanting to waste their best protector against the planet, seals him away, freezing him and only take him out when they need him to save them, or C) fake his death and continuing living, but lose his humanity, never being able to be “Sonic the Hedgehog” again. Sonic also never made this choice, as Shadow was the one who decided. Shadow feels guilt over this even if Sonic has gotten over it at this point. 

Sonic goes through a major depression in the years 110-150, as he basically loses his identity and is struggling with that. Sonic eventually finds some old outfit Shadow has in the closet, and uses it to become a masked figure called “S.” He now saves people under S, his speed being from “technology” and a voice modulator hiding his voice. Sonic is insanely powerful in the future, so people start equating him to a “legendary hero” who only appears when a threat too strong shows up. (like how Silver acted when talking about Whisper in IDW #8.) 

Sonic still has a lot of his immature traits personality wise, however he is a lot smarter when it comes to combat, having experience in situations, as well as being extremely overpowered. 

Shadow: Due to Shadow being the ultimate lifeform, he’s allowed to still be in public and shows his face. Shadow leaves G.U.N after Rouge retires, as Team Dark disbands. Once Rouge dies, Shadow spends a lot of time with Sonic, as Sonic is going through it being dead in all but name. 

Around 130-140, Shadow created “Maria’s Solutions,” his own private organization for helping people. Shadow is someone people go to when people can’t go to police or other organizations for help. He accepts help from almost any client, however he is often avoided by the worst as his power is terrifying. Shadow is now a detective, negotiator, and bounty hunter all in one, as he is more knowledgeable and collected now. 

After Eggman's death, Shadow adopted Sage at his request, not having it in him to bring her offline. Sage has a duplicate robot body but she prefers to spend time with him on Shadow's phone. She helps him out in missions, with hacking and tech related problems. 

Shadow has other employees for Maria’s Solutions, however I’m still working on them. Main ideas include an innocent girl similar to Maria he’s taken a soft spot to, a robot like Omega who works as a maid around their house, etc. 

Silver: Silver will occasionally come back to check in on Shadow. Due to the deal they made, Silver can’t know Sonic is alive. However, due to a mishap, Silver finds out and becomes friends with S. Sonic likes spending more time with Silver so he hides this fact from Shadow, sometimes going on missions with Silver. 

Other info

Sonic and Shadow aren’t important to this world. Lots of organizations and people fight in this world, thus leaving Sonic to deal with world ending threats and Shadow his clients. Organizations include

Technology conglomerates

A church that worships Gaia

The restoration

Militaries

Sonic and Shadow are married with rings pierced in their ears, however they do not like to define relationships. 

Anyone who Shadow trusts enough will meet Sonic by accident, but calls him “S” either way. 

Knuckles can be spoken too by connecting with the master emerald, which is underneath Sonic and Shadow’s house in an underground facility. 

Tails reincarnates when he dies with an extra tail, however he gets his memories from his last 100 years only if he meets Sonic. They don’t meet until 130ish, where Sonic agrees to wait until Tails is 20 every time before he hunts for him. (this part I’m still working on.)

Sonic is a jack of all trades who can use any weapon to fight as he likes to switch it up. Shadow uses a gun and sword combo along with his chaos abilities. 

AU is more comedic despite the somber tone, as Sonic and Shadow are still Sonic and Shadow at the end of the day.

Well that was a lot but if you want more info send me another ask with more questions for me to answer

In honor of the new Book 7 part I present to you all the right and honorable Lord Calibearn the Pretender. Briar Valley's premier overworked government employee.

Former court jester turned Royal Advisor, he's wrangled almost three generations of Draconia royalty in vastly different ways. He's twisted from the forest animals in sleeping beauty taking over the Prince's coat. Yes, he is made up of a bunch of animals in a fancy stuffed outfit. There's a lore dump below the cut

Unique magic: "Flock Together"- Allows user to control and manipulate groups of small animals. Advanced application allows conscious transfer of the soul

Background:

Calibearn came from a relatively poor background in Briar Valley. He used to sing and play the lute for some extra coin on the streets. When the Royal Court held a competition for a new jester, Calibearn decided to try out. He was successful on account for the unique harmonies he could conjure with forest animals and was appointed as a companion to a young princess Malenoar. It was through this that Calibearn met Raverne and Lilia.

War: (I'm not too set on his lore yet) During the invasion of the Silver Owl, Calibearn was taken hostage trying to evacuate civilians. He was never supposed to be near the front lines, due to his weak nature. While in captivity, Calibearn was forced to give up his original form and escape using his unique magic "Flock Together".

He never found his original body.

Upon his return, Calibearn took on a more ruthless political role under the senate. His sharp tongue and wit led to a meteoric rise in political circles (plus a shit ton of blackmail).

During the seige of Malenoar's castle, Calibearn was faced with a terrible choice. Send more troups to defend Malenoar or move the supplies to secure civilians. He made a choice he'll never forgive himself for.

Relationships:

Malenoar: On account of a shared childhood, they were quite close. Malenoar would frequently tease Cali about his shyness when they were young. Calibearn also entertained the princess with the sordid affairs that happen amongst the nobles in her court. Calibearn was also involved in a lot of the mischief Maleanoar would pull on potential suitors.

Lilia: Calibearn developed a minor crush on Lilia growing up. He holds Lilia in very high regard. After the war, Calibearn and Lilia's relationship deteriorates. Lilia, though still believing in Calibearn as a friend, cannot forgive him for abandoning Maleanoar. Calibearn doesn't believe that Lilia is wrong about that, but also refuses to explain himself. While Lilia is banished, Calibearn constantly petitions the Senate for a repeal of his punishment. He continues to support Lilia indirectly and would often send gifts for Silver through Malleus.

After nearly centuries of healing, Lilia wants to finally have an open conversation of Calibearn about the past. Calibearn runs away from this constantly. Much to the chagrin of literally everyone involved.

Malleus: Due to the fact that the Senate sucks and Lilia was not often allowed to see Malleus, Calibearn self appointed himself to be a tutor and mentor to the young prince. He would often help Malleus sneak out to see Lilia. He wanted the prince to at least have some semblance of a childhood.

Calibearn was not always the best role model at times. He taught Malleus how to curse like a sailor once and got his ass kicked by Lilia. Though he is fond of Malleus, Calibearn felt himself to be a temporary figure in prince's life. The guilt he carried made Calibearn feel that his love for the prince paled in comparison to the love Lilia could give. As such, he kept some amount of distance between him and Malleus.

Malleus on the other hand, grew to respect Calibearn as a mentor. Though that doesn't stop the prince from teasing Calibearn at every opportunity. (Btw the I love DILF mug is from Malleus, Cali has no idea what DILF means no one tell him.) Also, Malleus is constantly trying to get is divorced dads back together. Silver gets enlisted into this fight on account for him being the youngest and cutest.

waiter waiter more paraswap lore please!

SCREAMINGGGGGGGG FINALLY SOMEONE IS INTERESTED IN THIS HURRAY I AM NOT INSANE YA YA YA!!!!

Technically, I don't have much to say since, the new concept of this AU isn't thought out well

But I know for sure that the employee 724 is the opposite of 427. He hates his boring job, skipping order after order to get lost in his own imaginary world. Which often gets him into trouble

And 724 is.. Miserable.

And then one day, something peculiar happens. All of his co-workers are gone, replaced by a rather obnoxious man that keeps intervening his daydreams to voice his criticism towards the stories, which never have an end. A finish. They just- cut off. What could it mean?

(Which is sort of a parallel to how the endings have their finish. Something complete. And Stanley starts all over again. Except, unlike Stanley, the employee 724 never gets to start again. Hell, he never gets to finish at least one story. The beginning..Is only the beginning)

During this, the employee is forced to live through every story he gets to write. Some of them nice, peaceful. Some of them messed with by Overseer himself. Either to prove a point, or to make the plot more 'dramatic'. Something that the viewers will watch! Something that will sell!

Overseer loves to watch. Anything and everything. He is in control. He is control. But, sometimes they both get out of hand. Perhaps, no one ever was in control of this. Perhaps, they are two sides of one coin

Their current designs look like this (except I forgot to add a pocket with a pen for 724 lol) In opposition to Stanleys plaid 724 has stripes. Instead of arrows there are Zending lights on Overseer's cardigan

The visor can display a plethora of simple words, emojis, etc. It can also display nothing. Depends on the situation

Then, there are of course Mariella and the Curator, which, in this setting are, the Excursionist and, well. Currie(I haven't got a proper name for her yet)

This is pretty simple, Currie appears in the Mariella ending and the Excursionist is in charge of the museum

I don't know if it'll evolve into something more, but for now these are the concepts I am most content with ^^

There is also a bunch of old stuff that pretty much got scrapped or replaced. But, yeah! This is pretty much all

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LETTING ME DUMP ALL THIS INFORMATION

THE BEGINING IS ONLY THE BEGINNING IS ONLY THE BEGINNING IS ONLY THE BEGINNING IS ONLY THE BEGINNING IS ONLY THE BEGINNING IS ONLY

"'BioWare Magic' exists to serve man, and never to rule over him." Faded words found within the pages of a dust-covered 'BioWare Employee's Handbook'

I think one of the most messed up parts about BioWare is that they renamed crunch to 'BioWare Magic'. Because they did make magic. They made such magical worlds, stories, and characters that managed to captivate so many hearts and minds - that potentially left such a profound mark on the lives of those who experienced those stories. These games were one of the reasons I got into drawing as a hobby! They inspired me so much!

We're they perfect? No. But in some of the darkest times of my life I found an escape - a distraction that gave me some comfort and allowed me to escape the stresses of my life for a little while. Something that gave me a genuine feeling of joy when depression hit me particularly hard. I still hear tunes like the theme for Castle Cousland or the Inquisition menu theme and just get this rush of emotion within me because I have so many happy memories associated with the first three games.

I got to go on adventures -> I made my own character who got to influence change in this lovingly crafted world, and who could be as daring and strong as I wished I was in real life. I got invested in these characters -> they became friends, companions, and fell in love and I was there every step of the way. I got lost in the story and lore of this world in a way that no other fantasy game has managed to grip me.

That is magic.

It's vile that they called crunch - the most toxic and disgustingly prevalent aspect of gaming development 'magic' - it is the complete opposite. Reading about the burn out, the stress leave or a 'stress casualty' when a developer left for good. Getting a job in the industry you love, to create things that you love, only to have that love twisted into this corporate psychological dumpster-fire of a work culture...

A healthy, well-run studio would not have had four iterations of the same game, their core developers hemorrhaging with every new iteration, before being dumped at the finish line with this frankenstein mess of a game.

There is no alternative to Dragon Age - it's the only thing like it. It's just so sad that it ended the way that it did.

It was a day like this that I lost, my last battle. The star high in the sky blotted out by our moon. Remember what I lost bug.

art by @coyotecam

[razy-pop]

HEYO! I'm back with some art to dump off here

*drops*

Hope y'all like them and the drawing of experiment 1066 also I'm still working on their lore but I have changed some things up a bit like how there's not two kids in 1066 there's on younger one and a employee one inside of 1066 anyways that's all 👋

(sorry for not putting more effort into this post)

For the AU page FAQ, how much does the story of this AU differ from the canon story?

This has been added to the FAQ, but I am going to answer rq here too!! So since most of the AU takes place pre-HOJ where we don't know much, it is currently fairly canon compliant! If wanted, you could ignore all the stuff that happens after the HOJ that differentiates the AU from the game (mainly just the tags on his hat) and pretend its canon XD There are a few things that change post HOJ (and during the game) from what we see in canon. Many of them I have plans on drawing, but in summary Doey is slightly more distrustful of the Employee when they arrive and pushes the argument with Poppy further. He is noticeably more anxious of The Doctor and there are a few changes in dialogue (especially in the VHS). The Safe Haven freak out is much more dramatic and he seems less focused on "quiet voices" and "lies" and more focused on not being enough, "it isn't my fault!!". I actually have it written down (curse my tendency to lore dump in my own comments XD) He is less focused on voices and lies and instead is more focused on guilt, how everything he touches goes wrong, his inadequacy. He doesn’t attack Susan and George because of what they are saying (like in the VHS) he is attacking because he can’t think and too much is happening in his head and they get too close. Susan gets slammed against a wall similar to the first guard he kills and George freaking out and making noise gets his head squished. Then ofc Doey has quiet and the like full breakdown kicks in.

Pre HOJ it is very guilt and confusion and anger towards the scientists and adults in the building in particular. The gentle voices don’t lie per say, but they never come back (and his “memories” are too jumbled to piece together Matthew and Kevin’s experiences with scientists and staff that did involve a lot of lying). Post HOJ after he knows his origin it almost shifts into a childish sort of “it’s not my fault they made me wrong it’s not my fault!” <- someone who very much believes and has had it reinforced by scientists that when bad things happen it is his fault.

These are really the only big changes you'd see in canon!

[dinowolfthezombie]

I recently tweaked my Monty design. I made his colors darker so he blends with the environment of Monty Golf better. Monty being an ambush predator is a big part of his character in my story.

I gave him more of a mullet than a mohawk because I saw some art of Monty with a mullet and I liked the look. But then I came up with a lore explanation for it, so that's cool.

And I was happy to find out that alligators have nictitating membranes. Which means Monty now has a third eyelid that blinks sideways. Not only is it cool, but it is perfect angst for why he wears sunglasses.

Now, for the lore dump. I have been working on my own Security Breach story since the game came out. I have two parts planned out. Part one is called Wolves and Rabbits and takes place from Roxy first going online and before Gregory shows up. The second part will be called Gory and will cover the events of the actual game (except it's a whole week instead of one night).

In this story the animatronics were made by combining the materials for human and animal androids. The animal parts were originally made to perfectly replicate actual animals (for educational purposes in a future with more men than beasts in the world).

Out of everyone, Monty was the most animalistic and decidedly inhuman. His blinking freaked patrons out, his solitary and territorial personality made him difficult to work with, he couldn't produce heat and didn't show signs of being cold like mammals did, he was lazy and didn't like leaving water he was submerged in.

During Wolves and Rabbits, Monty sort of obliges to management's wishes, he wore the sunglasses to hide his eyes, he showed up for events, even rehearsals. But when he found out that maintenance planned on reprogramming him, that's when he went rogue. He hid from all the employees and never showed for events or check ups. His colors got darker and his hair grew out. His systems failed once in a while and only those he trusted repaired him.

He sort of became an urban legend. At least until Bonnie disappeared.

Imagine the Eyeball gives an actual Lore Dump for every Green Team Member individually to show how much of a sinner they are, and then we the audience have to decide whether this mass murderer dude or whoever lives or dies

Like

EYEBALL: Here's Ironmouse, who is the Queen of Hell, and she's caused the suffering of millions of people

EYEBALL: And here's Etoiles, who has singlehandedly slaughtered dozens of innocent Federation employees without so much as blinking

EYEBALL: And here's Maximus, who literally has a fucking nuke and is gonna blow everyone up

EYEBALL: And here's Roier! No explanation needed here, didn't you see him murder his husband over and over again the other day? Isn't that fucked up?

[loafeebuns]

Wanted to share my decode design inspo from some moots!, Have not updated him in a while, the last picture is the first draft ever(?) he’s just a bit more chonky now hehe,,

Basic info AGHH i know i have yet to fully lore dump for a lot of guys:

Decode 🔌⚡️

He/Him/It | Rank 1 Demon | Cyber Realm - Machine Type

- Decode is an older demon from the cyber realm, (a realm in this world is essentially a different plane linked to the regular GD world, you’re able to access/ travel to corresponding to the themes: Hell, Astral, Heaven, Cyber, and Void. more on that later!) The cyber realm is home to demons relating back to tech and electronics, it’s also where the golden age of innovation was as the world shifted into 1.9 (it still needs a better name LMAOO) with new vehicles and advancements yadda yadda,,

- He is a demon created in the 1.9 era for the purposes of combat but eventually found himself into the more technical aspects of creation, sinking a lot of time into developing a lot of the realm’s technology. While the tech back from 1.9 is considered outdated now, he essentially paved the way for the realm’s future demons to thrive off of, as well as being just as resourceful to the mortals (this part is still mega wip so SORRY if it’s weird ehehe )

- Decode Electronics is still a wip too, but it’s a large company known for providing vehicles, so things like UFO’s, robots, ships, etc! He’s very well respected on both the human and demon ends despite being a bit dated/ being of a lower power demon rank. While he doesn’t fully own it anymore, he’s still content with where he is now, and that is being stationed at the main(?) city branch. That’s how he met NC actually lmao

- Unlike most greedy capitalists he’s not like that! Big responsible man,, very patient especially when helping out employees/customers.. still able to lose temper but he’s mellowed out a lot.. I’m not mad just disappointed. Very much loves what he does as well as know a lot of demons.. he’s very logical, knowledgeable on computer science and engineering and all that but I only know so much because I am a dumbass and CANNOT write for smart chars 💔

KEEPING IT BRIEF EHEHEH ILL GIVE MORE INFO TO HIM AGHAHAH THANKS FOR READING
