oh! im curious about your thoughts on stygian sun? if you can tell us

I really liked it and I am excited to see more of it. I don't want to ruin it for anyone who hasn't read it, but I was totally absorbed just in the first passages. It was so damn juicy, and I also maybe cried a bit because that's what I do, lol. The setting is super cool and I got super attached to the MC and Luca pretty fast.

Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dark fantasy. ^_^

Kieran’s finished formal wear designs are now posted to the patreon, finishing up the last of the ROs. Next will be designs for MC’s siblings. :)

I'm so excited to meet L in-game, I can't wait!! 🥹😻💖 Are they the type to like headpats?

Depends on who’s giving ‘em as they don’t like most people touching their hair—but from the right person? Absolutely.

…buuuut you’ll likely never catch them admitting to it 😌 I think they’d probably rather die~

Patreon is live~! ✨✨

A short story, two finished RO designs, and sketch WIPs are posted!

I've decided to set up a Patreon where I'll post access to early updates, dev logs, sneak peeks, exclusive and early-access illustrations/character designs, and short monthly POV stories (with more benefits to come!).

Access them here or search FenofCattails on Patreon.

I am currently working on secondary character designs for each of the ROs featuring them in their formal wear! Here's a peek at Samira's and Aurynn's designs. They are currently available to the Retainer tier and above. I have the rest of the ROs' sketch WIPs posted to all paid tiers.

I also have a short POV story (1,434 words) that is available to the Demiblood tier, featuring Kieran, Lilith/Lucien, and Aurynn!

I have plans for further benefits once I figure out the pacing of everything--I have some fun stuff planned, like interactive mini-games featuring MC and other characters (like flashbacks with Luca and MC's siblings, POV interactions with MC, etc), short comics, themed illustrations/doodles, character designs for MC's siblings, and more! ✨

Thanks so much for all the support and love people have shown the demo so far, and thanks so much for your consideration in supporting me! ❤️🙏

Trying to imagine which magic path would be scarier to see a angry mc with. I feel like a mc with gravity manipulation who is fucking pissed would be scary as hell

Oh, definitely. Mc with gravity has a move I like to call black hole in their arsenal. It’s not pretty.

I already have plans for future scenes where mc can go too far with their magic in their own anger. Fire and gravity are obviously going to get…messy. And depending on the character you’re with, it can have some other consequences. (sorry L)

Illusion and healing are more subtle though, so I’ll have to think on how an mc losing it would look like with those. I could see an mc with illusion magic fucking with someone’s head pretty hardcore with some nightmarish illusions. 🤔 And I feel like it’d be interesting to see an mc use healing magic in ways it is…not intended for. To the horror even of themselves.

I have had this one interaction bouncing around in my head though for after one of such scenarios:

“Oh my gods,” you cry, clapping your hands to your mouth in horror. “…Do you think he’ll be alright?” You aren’t quite sure what compels you to ask. The man is clearly dead—a charred, smoking corpse lying blackened on the ground, and if by some cruel twist of Fate he is still alive you are certain he wishes he wasn’t. L’s head snaps up as they turn to look at you, blinking as if they cannot figure out if you are being serious or not. “Babe, you CREMATED that man,” they say, gesturing at the crumbling charcoal-colored corpse. “I don’t think he’ll be walking that one off.”

This is a Kieran appreciation post, carry on (pats their head).

what is this????? physical affection???????????

[stygiansun-totaleclipse]

Nihm's finished formal wear design is posted to the patreon! Next will be Kieran's. :)

[stygiansun-totaleclipse]

I'm deeply sorry for my previous statements. I've been going INSANE over Aurynn in this ask box in the past and I wish to apologize because sadly, that same feeling is also transferring to L. I apologize in advance for anything else I may say.

(Not really. Why to you make hot characters 😭😭😭)

excellent 😈

[stygiansun-totaleclipse]

Character Introduction: Luca Lupine

Age: 13

Height: 5’ 2” (157cm)

Pronouns: Gender selectable—She/her, He/him 

(Non-RO)

At age 3, after their parents’ passing, they were adopted by their parents’ distant cousin, Lord Sandstrider, who raised Luca as if they were his own child. Taciturn and aloof, Luca kept mostly to themself the first several years they were living with their adoptive father, finding solitude preferable to the noble children at court who teased them constantly. Concerned by Luca’s lack of a social life, Lord Sandstrider arranged for the two of you to meet, thinking both of you could use a friend. Luca proved a rather tough nut to crack, preferring to sullenly ignore your presence rather than attempt to play or make conversation, but slowly they managed to open up and the two of you quickly became inseparable. 

Luca finds the extravagant style of Theian attire to be uncomfortable and inconvenient. Instead, they prefer wearing overly simplistic, unrestrictive, loose foreign clothing since they get hot easily. Their manner of dressing was deemed odd by other children at court, and for that they found themself often teased. When forced to dress up for formal occasions, they are known to sulk.

They enjoy exploring and wanted to travel when they were older; they made you a promise the two of you would travel together when you grew up. They’ve also a knack for climbing trees and an even better knack for falling out of them.

They don’t appreciate people touching their hair. While Lord Sandstrider used to care for and style their hair when they were very young, Luca took up cutting and maintaining their own hair as soon as they were able.

When you were 11 and Luca 13, Luca accompanied Lord Sandstrider to his secluded manor near the edge of Theia for a short vacation. They never returned, having perished with Lord Sandstrider and his staff in a vicious fire that reduced the entire manor, its occupants included, to ash. 

Ever since then, they’ve been appearing in your dreams, aiding you in parsing through visions and prophecies.

maybe Kieran and MC can bond over their sisters hating them /j

welcome to the ‘our sisters hate us’ club 😭😭

[stygiansun-totaleclipse]

This request could be fun so would you make relationship charts with arrows between the characters? What A thinks of B, what B thinks of A, what A thinks of C, etc :3

I made it into a chart to make things easier

a lot of the relationships are spoilery so some of them I kept intentionally vague :3
