rotten

while it is true that one bad apple spoils the bunch the same can be said for bananas: also one which cause others to go bad through proximity

the reason it is best to keep bananas hanging above the fruit bowl so that they may not interfere

held at an arms length for the longevity of others

strange, then how being the ones to cause this rot makes them far more susceptible to the rot themselves

in an endless cycle of which there is no cure

to cause rot and become rotten

or be kept at an arms length

Gender essentialists cower at your TCP art’s feet. They see your She/her gay man Oriana and burst into tears. They pee themselves in fear when they see your butch/femme lesbian Juardan.

Please please please never stop 🙏

Omg I mean very thankfully no one has publicly taken issue with me yet so I've just been having fun in my little corner.

Also it's like... Juardan at least in the books is so aesthetically butch femme I think I'm allowed to mess around with it. There's lots of fey men in the books and though they are said to be beautiful so few of them seem to be rocking with the makeup and skirts and nail polish like Cardan.

A little Dragon's Dogma 2 WIP:

With Dragon's Dogma 2 launching this Friday, I too spent solid 9 hours in the prereleased character creator to get my Arisen and my Pawn characters ready ahead of time. And boy do I love how they turned out. Mind you there's no way to turn off the UI in the creator so I haven't been able to take proper pictures of them yet but I'm sure that will change once the game launches so stay tuned.

Starting off with my Arisen character, Alcestis Lysther:

Once an honorable oathbound knight serving her queen, now Alcestis is just as disgraced as her Lady as she first saved her life and then followed her into exile to continue being by her side. Her loyalty and adoration outweighs the nagging guilt of her and her Lady's past actions.

I really wanted to give her a kind of sharp and hawk-like aesthetic and I REALLY adore the way she turned out.

Continuing with my main pawn, Oriana Cirrus:

A queen who - threatened by an usurper - devoured a curse to gain an advantage over her enemies but it only brought destruction and chaos leading to her downfall and exile. Stripped from all her titles and riches, now only the curse eating it's way through her body remains.

Oriana has three scripture tattoos, two of which are mirrored on Alcestis' body. I like the idea that Alcestis offered to bind some of her own life power to Oriana to sustain her and to stop the spread of the curse (visually resulting in the identical tattoos), a fact that surely gives their dynamic a certain gravity. I'm not that familiar with the Dragon's Dogma lore (yet) but I'm sure Alcestis getting her heart stolen by a dragon will be an interesting twist on their relationship.

I for one cannot wait to find out more about the lore and maybe fine tune the backstories of these two.

[moomingitz]

I know it's a very predictable comparison, but I'm gonna say it:

Felix the Cat: The Movie, is the Sonic 06 of that whole trend of taking old cartoon properties and adapting them into movies back in the 80s to mid 90s. And I'm not saying that because of the sort-of maybe implied romantic feelings between Felix and Princess Oriana.

It's something that tried to take a usually more light hearted character/IP by updating and reintroducing it to a new audience by going in a more gritty grim dark and epic high concept direction. The soundtrack slaps, the art direction and aesthetic of it is neat, and there was clearly a lot of passion and ambition behind it.

But the end result is so damn janky. Something obviously went on behind the scenes for it to turn out the way it did. There a parts where the animation is pretty good, but the majority of it was clearly either very rushed or done on a very tight shoestring budget. The story is a mess despite it clearly trying to set up this big epic thing, and when it does finally get moving it ends faster than it took to set things up. This movie is barely able to stumble across the finish line.

But, not only can you not look away from it, but you can't help but be fascinated by this hot mess and wonder what it could have been if it had more time, money, and other less production related troubles that clearly plagued it, because the film didn't seem to come from a place of laziness. The more you watch it, the more you want to dissect it and find out more about it's production and history. All of the circumstances surrounding this thing is just too interesting to not want to try and look into.

Do any of your characters have secret references or meanings to their names? I’m always a fan of those!

When I name characters, I most often choose a name based on how it sounds/how it would be said and if that sound communicates the character in some way. In some ways the impression of the name and its relation to other names can create symbolism for the character. However, there are times where the names are direct references to something, and with the list I made below they will be at the end bc the explanation may be longer.

(This is exclusively splat ocs because adding all my other ones will make this list too long lmao. Plus I might talk a bit about their inspirations too!)

All this stuff under the cut!!!

Starting with Peur, I chose the name bc it just sounded nice with the plosive P and if the vowels arent stressed. I always notice that if the u and e are switched it becomes 'puer' which means 'boy' in latin. Peur is inspired by pineapples, Mallorca and the summery vibes of Splatoon 3

'Orion' was a kinda cool name I chose bc I didnt wanna go with 'octavian' because it sounded too basic. I think his name adds some mystery and implies he is a classy person too (but also I am a critical role fan so the name sometimes reminds me of tiberius lol). The character is inspired by takoyaki, red son from Monkie Kid, daffy duck (mainly the voice), RPDR, saucy santana and jjba.

Oriana and all the octavio cousins have their names bc they just sound cool and fitting with their character and aesthetic, for example Olav sounds serious but memorable (for a politician) and Odaliah sounds regal and sophisticated. Oriana's name to me sounds like it would belong to someone popular so yeah. Every octavio oc I made is inspired by a musical artist and Beyonce's Renaissance album lol.

Troy's name is a direct reference to the city of Troy in Greco-Roman stories (Ilead and Aeneid), the city that is destined to fall from the Greek invasion (dont worry Troy usnt destined to die or anything lol). I think it fits because Troy is a history nerd and he just chose this name (but also it could reference Aeneas from the Aeneid who left Troy to found Rome in myth). Other than that, Troy is inspired by some JPEGMAFIA songs and my fave superhero Miles Morales (especially after atsv)

Ace's name for starters is just a short but cool name and it also refers to the ace of playing cards, not assigned to any number (like agents in the NSS) but still apart of the deck. I made the character whilst listening to MF Doom who is one of my fave rappers because of their comic book/supervillain aesthetic (check out the song crosshairs)

DJ/the Captain was called Hubert sorta as a joke lmao. Basically my sibling joked that a lot of the character names I come up with are quite goofy (shes right lol) especially after I showed her all the splashtags I made for fun. So at some point I was designing my own versions of the agents and I made a really short agent 3 with a big forehead, a receding hairline and bad posture who acts like an edgy teen and gets bullied at school (I thought it would be intersting to make this kind of scrunkle) and I was like 'ok well this is HUBERT'. I will talk about him more/share some concept stuff another time to keep it short but hes inspired by gorillaz phase 1 and psychonauts, also he moves around /poses awkwardly like the spot in atsv, especially with the shoulder and neck posture.

I kept the naming for Neo quite easy, just Neo and simple as that. However my Neo 3 took this name because its quite mysterious, lacks any attatchment to gender (Neo is agender) and is better than their birth name. But now that I think about it, its a Matrix reference and Neo is a revolutionist who rejects the system! Neo is inspired by Hobie Brown in atsv and Mayday from No Straight Roads (and yes Neo's freinds are also NSR inspired too)

I had to come up with Teryon's name when naming some files of the first few drawings of him. The name sounds kinda serious but also the shortening to 'Terry' implies he is also casual, the average friendly guy. Terry also sounds kinda like 'teddy (teddy bear🥺)' to me but I didnt want to be too on the nose. I made him bc I wanted to make a fuzzy inkfish character since the ones I saw on this site looked really cool, also Mr. Grizz's boss fight attacks looked cool to me. Terry is inspired by music by Thundercat, Tame Impala, Childish gambino and Zuke from No Straight Roads

Ok so for this last one, TW fordeath, murder and a bit of gore because I will be mentioning the Ilead and Achilles/Hector stuff.

Anchilles (omg thx crystalmonk!) Is a name I definitely thought through, the 'Achilles' bit doesnt refer to a heel or anything but actually the character himself and the gruesone thing he did to Hector in the Ilead. Achilles is a Greek soldier and Homeric hero who killed Hector (a Trojan warrior) as revenge for killing his best bro (bit fruity ngl). He was so angry at Hector for doing this that he continued to beat his dead body and he cut holes in his ankles, tied rope through them and attatched the rope to his chariot so he could drag Hector as he charioted back to the Greek camp. So yeah, Achilles biting people ls ankles is a reference to that. The smallfry is inspired by King from the owl house and ellie from No Straight Roads (a little alligator with a helicopter for some reason).
