Do you guys imagine your piglet being bigger or smaller than their site stats? (Outside of lore descriptions) Eg: the smallest, by stats, is still Rot, and Claw is only second biggest to Riot (who i personally imagine being a bit bigger as she gets older due to her exposure and usage of harvested magic for her prosthetics!)

Any physical description ideas that you have floating in your head? Scars, tattoos, breed variations? I'd love to draw the piglets interacting with each other, especially more mature/older versions (but i'd love to do standalone fanart of them when theyre just starting out too hehe)

@ringleaderising obligatory piglet ping!

Terra is in Rising. A part of the story is set on her back. While she doesn't have a 3D model, she even gets a nice art. So only the HL players and the fighting game people know about the Eternal's pet tortoise

HELP? that's so funny omg.

okay so at least two type of people knows Terra, that's good. thank you Terra for always being here for us.

🥭🍌🍏 !

--terra-tortoise

🥭Show off a dragon who's doomed by the narrative and talk about them!

everyone here is haunted by the narrative where do i even begin lmao(?

actually thinking of it, Morus might be a better example here. He was born with a silver spoon, anything he could ever imagine or desire was within his reach and under his whims. A spoiled child that wore his parents' patience thin more often than not to the point that they took harsh measures to limit his excess and give him proper eduation and values to not take everything for granted. Being young at the time he just handwaved their lectures.

Once reaching adulthood he came to meet Rubra, a coatl of lower class, humble but also one to keep real to him and not shy to confront him and his attitude which made something in his demeanor change gradually coming to appreciate her being in many ways. Their friendship (and love) was denied by his parents and while they are conscious that they might have gone overboard in their actions they knew it was for the best to rid of the rotting issues before Morus did something really reprochable.

Morus never knew who was the perpetrator, where she was disposed of or the reasons if any; but the quick dismissal of his superiors made him take actions to answer those questions on his own, setting on a journey he came to learn of her fate and of those that came to guard her last resting place, a place he is not allowed to enter as they don't deem him worthy of his apologies and presence no matter how much wealth and threats he throws to earn their... whatever he needs to get to her.

He is haunted by her memory and everything both enjoyed together. And so he currently struggles to figure what to do to get it all back, to get the only one he really cares for, back.

🍌Show off your favorite couple/throuple/etc and share some information on how they first met, fell in love, etc!

ok im gonna go banana here sorry in advance (also gonna keep it super vague on some details because this is something im figuring to adapt so it makes better sense later hehe)

I did mention their relationship is a bit of a conflict and yeah, thats very much it at first lol. Their lore in general is based on another concept/worldbuilding thing im just re-adapting from. For the moment just know that chimeras, manticores, jailers and hermits are titles for sacred/revered beings, with the former two being always at conflict with each other to the point of being considered natural enemies.

Sen is a trained hunter, at first that was not her role but ones beyond her clan knew the potential for a greater chimera to be made from her and so she was enlisted and trained properly to fit that (and had some greater education on the side as well, ordered by her own clan who didnt want her to become some mindless fool nor weapon if they could avoid that).

Joule on the other hand was the runt of the litter on a continuous effort to create [the] manticore. Althought his chances for survival were slim he was kept safe by his sibling(s) to spare him the rejection of the rest of the clan. Eventually he would become the true manticore their clan was aiming to create but that came with a cost and his own escape.

Their first meeting was a messy one, not one of Sen's best days on the prowl and just another disastrous one for Joule. At this point in time Sen spends her days chasing and exterminating beasts and pests to earn her living beyond the watching eyes of the masters she resents; she got notice of the bounty on some "disruptor beast" and while she would usually reject any quest involving other dragonkind or anything ambiguous in nature she took it on insistence of a friend.

Once the identity of the disruptor beast was cleared as Joule, she was about to spare him without much fanfare but her instinct took in after understanding the true creature before her, getting each other into a fight -one where Joule was the less experienced one- as he tried to avoid as much as he could, all coming to an end as he managed to incapacitate the other by a lucky hit forcing Sen to break away.

Future encounters would follow the same pattern, sometimes conflict being initiated by Joule himself as he gained more confidence but most of them ending in bitter stalemates until both became too tired of the routine and eventually learned to bear each other long enough to keep a truce and figure what the hell they were falling into.

Their relationship starts with a slow mutual understanding of their shitty situation(s) and how they might be able to help each other and become better than what they were meant to be. Feelings come and go but neither have the experience or knowledge to call it love (yet) they will be it's just gonna take a while~

🍏Show off a dragon family and talk about them! Do you have siblings, parents & kids, etc? (If you don't have any families in your lore, choose one of the other prompts instead!)

There is more found families here actually(?, I have a couple WIPs but they are so early in what I wanna do with them that I dont feel confident saying anything for them yet ;-;

Instead I'll share another pathetic boyo because that's fun <3

and of course, it's a tundra! Sarqi only has two modes: epic traveller with a knack for grandiose storytelling involving his many discoveries across the land and sad cursed motherfucker that is just one bad day away of getting murder-killed by vengeful spirits coming for the many trinkets he has pilfered without knowledge.

And really, one would think he is getting his ass cursed on purpose to set some sort of record but he does not seem to connect the dots between his misfortune and the ominously lighted piece of scrap he just picked up outside some abandoned shack in the middle of the road.

"That's just superstisions! why would this random broken badge be haunted it's just kinda ugly and rusted and I doubt there is much value on it to even be worthy of causing despair over it" *said badge belonged to an old era sorcerer and it was a gift from their wife, the ghost is kinda mad that he stole it from his unmarked grave*

(oh also! he was born my country's equivalent of april fools which is just a bit funny to me in particular)

Anyway, as threatened, here's research baby:

Name: Sonata

Age: 23

Height: 138 cm

People: Draph

Hobbies: No time for hobbies

Likes: Coffee, animals, reading

Dislikes: People, being disturbed, bright lights

Pronouns: She/ they/ hey you / anything goes

Sonata hails from a small island in the outskirts of the Valtz Duchy. She was adopted as a young child and she's aware of this, because her adoptive parents are Harvins. They are teachers at the only school on the island, so Sonata was often told that her good grades were only due to favoritism. Despite the sting of that, she always loved academics and her parents, whom she has a good and loving relationship with, encouraged her however they could. She ended up leaving the island for a university in the Port Breeze area, where she is now one of the youngest PhD candidates in its history. She pushes herself very hard, both to show her parents that their support wasn't in vain, and to show up everyone who told her that academia may not be the place for a Draph.

She's perpetually stressed and probably has more coffee than blood at this point, as she is prone to pushing herself and has passed out in the library more than once. Tragically, she's too stubborn to change her ways and every time someone tells her no, she digs her heels in and doubles down. She has social anxiety, but tries to mask that by acting blunt and irritable, to push people away and keep them from further talking to her.

She lost one of her horns when she was attacked by a monster in her childhood. That incident led to her developing a keen interest in nature, which is why she studies biology and specifically ecology.

Sonata has maroon hair that is about shoulder length for practicality and oftentimes very frazzled, and wine red, baggy eyes. Her horns are smooth and white, with the right one broken at the halfway point. She sometimes decorates it when she remembers. She wears glasses due to being near-sighted.

She attempted to befriend Threo in an effort to gain access to Terra and research the ecosystem atop the giant tortoise's back, but grows to enjoy Threo's unfiltered, direct ways. Even if the girl's tendency to act and then not think ever is routinely driving her insane.

They work things out after Sonata's friendship scheme is discovered, because Threo doesn't really hold on to grudges, and then Sonata begrudgingly had to accept that she likes the Eternal of the Cardinal Three.

They bond over their understanding of nature, Threo's lived experiences versus Sonata's book smarts. Threo likes having a friend who will tell her when she's about to do something stupid and someone whom she can protect and Sonata likes having someone around who's just refreshingly earnest and direct and also can tell the person working the counter that she asked for no pickles, actually.

Silly Game Time: For reasons that aren't all that interesting to discuss (just some time travel and some pirates, the usual), I am now responsible for taking care of a mated pair of galapagos tortoises.

What should I name them?
