Also. This is your sign to introduce an OC. Here and now
hi ardate :] this is a bit late but, since i did it, i might as well introduce her now in this post
for my april fool's day joke, i did a little trick on the find everything discord server where i made a handful of screenshots showing a new (fake) character:
this is Myla Warper, a Whatsit Woods NPC
i don't have much on her at the moment, and i suspect a lot about her lore will become obsolete when 0.3 comes around, but essentially, she's an engineer and the inventor of the Warp, the in-game fast travel system. she spends a lot of time at home, but is getting out a little more, using the Warp and a range of mobility aids
she managed to trick a few folks (which, looking at how the first find everything hoax, wouldn't've been a hard thing to pull off) but, shortly after - though, in retrospect, it could've been left revealed until the end of the day, i revealed the prank with:
anyway, i'll put the fake screenshots under the cut and maybe post Myla concepts in a reblog :] + notes. there'll be notes. i've got notes
i don't remember when exactly i conceptualised Myla, but it might've been between when 0.2 was released and when the developers streamed their 0.2 launch stream a few days later. this is because i had this thought of Myla living in that old abandoned house, working away at her tech (in the early stages, Myla's outfit in my mind would be a the classic tanktop and half-worn jumpsuit where the top half was tied around her waist, you know the look), but obviously had to be just a fun scrapped idea when it was discussed on the stream that Old Man Majig lives there
still, Myla being hidden away in this corner of Whatsit Woods is reminiscent of that idea i guess. it is also just a very good spot for something you could've missed, especially since the community had been combing through save files looking for the second fun value, but it does sort of make her following dialogue a little strange as she's not near any Warp pads
this bit is meant to, like, mirror dialogue from "tutorial NPCs" who casually introduce new concepts to the player. having worked hard on drawing Illie last year for Halloween, i had her a lot in mind, with Illie also being a tutorial NPC. looked over her 5 lines of dialogue a lot to try and get the vibe down right (of course, she wasn't the only one, but she was the main one) .. i can wrap my head around the Find Everything art style, but writing stuff that matches the FE vibe got me stumped so i hope it didnt stand out all that much
originally, those first two lines where different and. stiffer for a long while ("I actually make a few Warp Drives myself!"/"Er… Let's not be humble, maybe more than a few. Maybe all of 'em."), but i think it worked out in the end. the very first bit of dialogue was also changed ("Hey there, blockling! Just on a walk.") to just be combined with the next line but i just really wanted to preserve that "blockling" here. i know it's just the species name of like. the Roblox character, but it also reads as a little endearing term to me
ahh, the reason why i sort of thought up Myla in the first place. see, a big contention in the find everything community is Whatsit Woods being the only major area in the game without a Warp Drive, despite there already being Warp pads by its entrances in two neighbouring areas. the lack of a Whatsit Woods Warp is very likely to be changed with the 0.3 map rework, but i always thought this (and the Construction Zone Warp.. ) discourse was stupid. Myla going "No. Why? I live here." is like. cathartic to me.(??)
but regardless, she and Watcher Macallit are kind of ocs born from asking "why is this the way it is?" why is there no Whatsit Warp Drive? what makes a Thing a Thing? just ocs to play with and sort of expand worldbuilding, and i love doing this

i'll try to keep this short because, whew boy, i didn't expect the underside of that cut to be so long hah..
a bunch of concept art(?) for Myla. besides gaining an eye, her cane, and her name, there surprisingly hasn't been many changes. with the Myla with crutches, i did like the idea of her sprite with them, especially to create a difference in sprites between Myla and Jilly who is also a cane user, but it was too last minute to redraw her - though, i'd like to keep/change her eye fungus, which i did in her april fools thang, but. y'know
you'll notice that two of them don't have her head mushrooms, which for a long time i thought was going to stay that way (same with her lack of eyes), to the point where i made them toggleable when i moved from mspaint to medibang:
it was just me worrying over her silhouette, really - find everything characters are very shape-y and silhouette-based. but i decided, what the hell, just minor wrong things for the keen-eyed viewers
i also had trouble figuring out what colour her would be? so, at some point it was pink, then pink and blue. i didn't keep anything from that, but here it is remade in mspaint haha - i definitely prefer the blue she has now
quickly, some final details: her head mushrooms mirror the shapes of the Warp symbol (if you don't know what that looks like, it's on her shirt) (not the mspaint ones though, that one's the wrong order) and her right goggles lens is cracked just to parallel her right eye
if i wasn't conscious about how super fucking long this post is, i'd go into some inspirations or something, but i think i'll just leave it here hfdjk and maybe some point in the future if i feel like it, i'll make a post about making a convincing fe npc screenshot
