Propaganda under the cut

Carrion x The thing - The thing (1982) and Carrion videogame (2020)

They are both body horror shapeshifting biomass queens.

Bloodborne bosses "Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos" and "Rom the Vacuous Spider" (Ebrietas/Rom) – Bloodborne

Ebrietas is a god-like otherworldly being of immense power, alien and unknowable. Rom was a human uplifted to be Ebrietas' equal. When Rom is slain, Ebrietas can be found mourning her at the Altar of Despair - one of THE most emotional moments in a game that deconstructs the themes of Lovecraftian horror. Ebrietas' sorrow over losing Rom invites the player to find compassion for the monstrous, to relate to the "other" - what's more thematically relevant for a monster bracket than that? Now imagine if they were LESBIANS.

Princess x slayer/hero (Bird Hero x Princess)- Slay the pricness

It’s cosmic horror as a love story - you kill and betray and love and fight for your freedom together - Eldritch beings deeply in love but forced to fight in a tragic loop

I'm so bored and tired, have a species swap

[disarraydoodlez]

For the Christmas doodles how about Shifty and Quiet (or any of the vessels and voices really,) setting up a Christmas tree? Or making a snowman. Pick your poison :)

THE POISON IS PICKED!! Had loads of fun with this one including a whole different version that felt a lil too stiff. Kinda went with a Bell from Beauty and the Beast's styled outfit for the princess. Absolutely love the goobers goobering about.

Not sure if we'll be able to get to all of y'alls doodle suggestions before christmas, but this is why we don't make promises baybeeeee. Having loads of fun with princess and the creature, but don't be shy anyone from our other fandoms for Christmas-y ideas.

Anyways now we also have a design for our hero! He's a little more detailed than the rest of our voices (most of which need a redesign or a design at all) but I think that works given he is a lot more prominent in the story. Also, just look at this lil guy! So much birb!

Quick messy voices designs

Words under their names are my first associations that came to me during my first walkthrough

[walrus-tusk-615bc]

Couple goals: Horrid beast tormented by voices, whose only choices are to witness/cause the death of their soulmate and a princess who’s doomed by the narrative to repeat the cycle upon their death.

Voice of the Paranoid

Other Designs: Cheated/Hunted/Cold/Contrarian/Smitten/Opportunist/Skeptic/Stubborn

Another design finalized! My goal with Paranoid's outfit was to make it as aggravating as possible for him :)

Here's a demonstration how I imagine his chant working:

Below the cut is the usual - ref without any text + the first time I ever drew Para! Fun fact, he was the first voice I ever drew!!

Knight and a reaper 🗡️🪦

[silverspadesss]

actually one of the biggest injustices (/j) of slay the princess is that we never get to take hero birdwatching

[olegianote]

I love your stp narrator! And I'm 100% sure you already know this, but secretary birds are also called killer queen! So does this mean the narrator gets called the killer king/queen sometimes by the other voices to annoy the narrator? :]

OH THAT WOULD BE SOOO FUN! I like when Narrator gets annoyed! Which is why this ask inspired me to do this little comic:

[jelliibeanz]

is anyone else an unintelligible shape of feathers and shadows purely because of slay the princess

Good afternoon!...

Anyway here's a cute little Cold, and some pen-tasting.

Pretty great stuff.

(There's a pretty long rant ahead about an STP swap AU!!!!!)

I think it's so interesting that there are 5 very different Princesses in the Stranger; I heard from somewhere that their names are The Hopeless, The Sinister, The Snide, The Kind, The Blank.

I imagine it'd be fun if a swap AU implemented those Princesses as "bases" based on the first thing the player says upon being told about the cabin and the Monster.

I mean Voice of the Sinister could be like Nightmare and Tower. She might appear when you first say the "Sweet I've always wanted to off a monarch!" Dialogue in the base game? It'd just be "I've always wanted to off someone!" Instead maybe cause TLQ isn't a monarch and it's definitely pretty sinister to just outright say that.

Voice of the Snide would be like Prisoner/Sharp Princess. Could be a "Why would I listen to you?" "Have you ever considered that I'd be okay with the world ending?" defiant type voice.

Voice of the Kind is obviously Damsel/Soft Princess. "What if he's going to end the world BECAUSE he's locked up?" Or smtg like that, morality talk and whatnot.

Voice of the Hopeless could just be.. Broken? But a girl, I guess? I'm not sure what she'd say but it's something that Broken would say - like "What's the point of doing this? The world will end one day anyway."

They sound so cool and I'm sure anyone can work with that, but Blank Princess? That could probably happen if we outright try to leave like in Stranger so the Monster can't perceive us.

But what would she say? Would she act or speak like Cold? She'd generally have minimal opinions, wouldn't she? Would having her even change anything? Would she be completely pliable or changeable? Would she be like Opportunist, but sincerely ever-changing and not just for self reason? Is she just a shell and says things just for the sake of it like Deconstructed Damsel? Would she just follow along the Princess as the main character and mirror her actions? Would she be as moldable as we (Princess) are to TLQ?

Again, I think the "Base Princesses" might work really funny if they were a byproduct of SOLELY your first ever choice in the narrative, and it sticks, and they act like Voice of the Hero who accompanies you throughout the entire run.

So instead of having different TLQs, you get different You's at the final Heart scene? That's a pretty funny concept to think about - but it sounds like it'd be painful to work with in a game because you'd have to make all the routes compatible with each of the 5 Base Princesses and make it not feel too clunky or too different.

I'd honestly want to write or plan a whole thing with this kind of story, the only problem is I don't know how to make the Narrator want to kill TLQ.

The Echo's literal purpose is to get rid of change and death with it while leaving a sliver of TSM in TLQ so the world could still move along and people could have lives that aren't completely stagnant and devoid of growth and change.

Would this swap-Echo's job be to protect TLQ and tell the Princess/Player to save him? Or would His view change entirely so He'd oppose TLQ by saying"The world will be doomed to eternal stagnancy"?, instead of death, would he be afraid of the constant and stillness? Why would he want to rid the world of it specifically? I'm really not sure.

Just a little idea I had, y'know!.. phew, I didn't mean to write a whole thing but yeahh..

The Slay The Princess Brainrot Continues

Propaganda under the cut:

Shrek/Fiona

No submitted propaganda

Princess/Bird Hero

It’s cosmic horror as a love story - you kill and betray and love and fight for your freedom together - Eldritch beings deeply in love but forced to fight in a tragic loop

Submitted propaganda by @justanothertranscowboy : “You are trapped in a never ending time loop, and you MUST slay the princess. The actions you choose to do, even before you meet her determine who she will be when you face each other. You both kill each other at least one. The Eldritch entity that the princess is apart of is thankful for any incarnation you bring of the princess, violent or kind, heartbroken and betrayed or loved and cherished. She is violent, she is blood thirsty, she's occasionally full of knives, she is sweet, she is naive, she love you, she hates your guts and wants to watch you die.”
