"You came from nowhere, like a miracle cure"
as of today (September 26th, 2024), Clump is officially one year old! Never in a million years would I have ever imagined that this incredibly silly slugcat would mean so much to me and help me through so much, and to think they came from a silly name suggestion!
Tumblr media
They've basically become my rain world mascot and I couldn't be happier, happy birthday, little buddy!

for @druidshollow >:] Whimsy decides to wish Slumber a happy activation day!!
Ngl, I admittedly started this with the mindset that it'd take around at least the end of the month-beginning of october, as this was meant to be a birthday gift, however I ended up finishing it much, MUCH earlier than I originally estimated, so consider it a super early birthday gift! I had a blast working on this, as other than the background I animated everything entirely in Blender (I would go on about how much I love blender's grease pencil and how nice it feels but now's not the time LMAAOOO)
Song: Dance Robot Dance Medley, I've been listening to it on loop and it's so fun!!

Happy Early Birthday, Clump!
Clump's turning one year old in 3 days! (As I initially created them in the 26th of September 2023), never in a million years would I have expected this silly slugcat, who started off purely as a joke character to mean so much to me and help me through so much, to celebrate this, I figured I should make them a little lore animatic!
The best way I can describe Clump and Five Pebbles is like, a King and Lionheart dynamic but one sided, hence the song choice. (King and Lionheart by Of Monsters and Men)
See Clump, despite claiming they don't care about the iterators on a personal or familial level, does indeed care, they in fact, care so so much for the iterators, especially Five Pebbles, deep down, the iterators subconsciously remind them of the creator they've never known, and they do what they can to help treat Pebbles' rot, Pebbles, on the other hand, is like "why are you blowing things up in my body."
Pebbles sees Clump as a nuisance, some thing that messes with his insides with no rhyme or reason, but guess what! Clump genuinely cares for him! They're genuinely doing what they can to help him despite their lack of grace in their means, And I can imagine them getting frustrated that Pebbles just doesn't see that! They're just trying to help, after all...
Basically they're like SpongeBob and Squidward if SpongeBob was trying to cure Squidward of his turbo-Cancer LMAO

"(Clump/The Medic) wants to cure the rot, their attempts to do so frequently border on cartoon/slapstick logic, and all around absurdity, but despite that, their goal is genuine"

for some reason I was completely overwhelmed with the urge to work on refs for art fight (despite the fact that's not happening for like. Another half year) but on the plus side that means all my rain world ocs now have fully updated refs, enjoy! Also if you have any questions about anyone feel free to lmk, perhaps I should post lore related stuff soon :o

> Makes a character for the sake of Jolly Co-Op that isn't meant to be taken seriously > Takes them seriously
Anyways, Whoops I ended up getting very emotionally attached to Clump, here's them experiencing The Horrors (That One Garbage Wastes Memory Conflux Room)
The perspective is a bit wonky but other than that I'm super proud of how this turned out! I don't do backgrounds often... but this is honestly one of the best backgrounds I've ever made, I'm so proud of it :]

🔥EPIC CLUMP LORE MASTER POST YEEEAAH🔥
Hii Hiii I'm very much in the mood to ramble about my Rain World ocs, so what better way to start off with that than going over the little guy in my icon, behold, Clump!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Before I explain their deal I should preference by saying that:
1: they have no connections to the Notosverse (THE RW OCverse with Pioneer, Poet, Luminal, and generally the rest of my 100% serious Rain World ocs)
and 2: they started as a jolly co-op joke oc that was NOT meant to be taken seriously at all, but evidently I suck at making 100% joke ocs so whoops, they're now semi serious semi joke and all around all very goofy so please keep that in mind, and 3: uhh yeah
Tumblr media
- Clump is most certainly a purposed organism (obviously), most likely being created some time after the original Spearmaster was sent out during their first mission, but before the pearl was delivered/shortly before the rot happened, however, who created them and *why* is anyone's guess. No one knows, not even Clump. They'd just shrug if asked. But the most common theory is that another iterator saw Spearmaster, thought they looked weird as hell, and attempted to recreate them for themselves
- At one point they probably encountered the original Spearmaster and went along with them to Suns on their way back from the first mission... Suns was rightfully a bit spooked because Where The Hell did they come from and how, Clump ended up going their own way after the start of the second mission however so it wasn't like they ended up living with SM and Suns 😔
- Clump got their name from 'looking like a clump of [The Original Spearmaster's] skin', according to Suns
- they discovered what rot is after encountering The Memory Conflux Garbage Wastes Room, after being chased by a salamander, the both of them ended up falling into the rot pool, while Clump was able to make it out, the salamander was not so lucky, having been dragged down and eaten by the proto rot
- the reasons they give to wanting to cure the rot, according to them, are as follows:
1: They feel that slowly rotting away and being eaten alive is a horrific fate no one deserves, even for a god machine (though they claim to have little attachment to the iterators as individuals despite that, whether or not that truly is the case is a major point of contention, lol. lmao. they're clueless about it but deep down subconsciously they really do care for the iterators due to the lingering sense of familiarity.)
2: the fact that rot is being introduced to the surrounding areas is a major problem, as it puts everything and everyone else in the vicinity in active danger due to how the rot can become mobile and thus able to actively seek out and eat creatures, alongside being hard to kill, plus, who knows what else, what if it turns out to be infectious towards the wildlife as well!?, it's not worth finding out, so better get rid of it all than regret it... Maybe that could save the area or something
3: They want to have a name for themself, recognized as the one to took action when no one else did anything and cured The Rot, maybe even get on the cover of Time Magazine Slugcat Of The Year for doing so
- while their desire to cure the rot does seem to be genuine, if not just a little shallow in some aspects, their ways of trying to do so... Really lack surgical professionalism, it essentially borders on slapstick cartoon logic, they have tried the following in treating the rot: throwing ibuprofen at it, shooting it with a rifle they found, spearing it several times
- if their name followed in game scug titles (The Monk, The Hunter, stuff like that), they'd have 'The Medic' as a title
- They're!!! Stubborn!! They're determined to find a cure and won't take the idea of giving up as a possibility!
- they started wearing their bandana after discovering the rot as a means of defense against it, fun fact, their bandana is made out of the same stuff as the fabric that coats explosive spears, meaning they can wrap it around a spear as like, a one time use way to craft an explosive spear when in a tight spot since rot cysts are weak to explosives
Extremely goofy for a scug? yes but also I am having so much fun and ended up getting attached so oops

Day 24-27! decided to merge the prompts together since I had a really vivid idea of what I wanted to do with it! Don't you hate it when your plans to get rid of the rot are rudely interrupted by the rot? (Featuring Guest Star Clump!)
