#the feychild polls

[ominous-feychild]

As stupid as this might seem, this is a very important question...

Tagging my tag list because I'm probably using this for my writing stuff, haha.

✨Your Wish Is My Command: A HUGE Thanks!! 🧞‍♂️✨

Wow, y’all are amazing 😭😭😭

It’s been a little over a week since YWIMC has launched, and since then I have received over 300 hits, 30 kudos, five Amazon purchases, and over 200 (‼️) amazing comments and a partridge in a pear tree. I seriously cannot thank you all enough for your support and generosity. You all rock 🤘💫

I wanted to poll the public (and my tag list) with a survey about your interests. This won’t affect any release order of my books, but I am curious to see what everyone is interested in 👀✨

I appreciate everyone’s massive support and kindness! Thank you all again, and Happy Holidays! 💛💫

So me and @the-letterbox-archives talked about this idea of doing a character talkshow, inspired by a similar thing @thecomfywriter did a while ago, and I think it's a cool one! Ergo, here we are with...

Talkshow Submissions!

Basically, I'll go cast by cast, starting with the Outcasts quartet. Feel free to send in a question to them within a 24 hour period (by ask, comment, or rb, it doesn't matter to me), and then after the time is up, I'll do a big post where the quartet answers your questions as a group. Any question is on the table, just be nice about it! Feel free to ask a question to a specific character or to the group as a whole. Also, I'll try to credit each question, but if you want to ask an anonymous question, tell me, and I won't announce to the world that you're the one who asked what everyone's biggest pet peeve about everyone else is. If this ends up being fun, I'll probably do another two episodes for the MG gang and Starbreaker crew :)

Here are the character intros for the Outcasts quartet, if you really wanna get down in the thick of things:

Izjik Meautammera

Sepo Kaiacynthus

Twenari Devaris

Djek Kagura

And this poll is serving mainly as a clock for me to remember to check this post in 24 hours (not a hard time limit tbh, if you send in an ask on hour 26, I won't mind) but also as a gauge of interest

Thank you and have a bitchin day!

How are you an actual mind reader? I was just about to address this lol

I'm about to be overly dramatic about this hol' up

GOOD EVENING LADIES AND GENTS

As our dear Naveena has so kindly brought up, there is a woeful lack of rambly lore posts on this blog of mine!

In an attempt to rectify this terrible tragedy, these next few days I shall endeavour to fill with lore posts galore!

However, my poor brain is a whirlwind of works, a cyclone of creativity, a labyrinth of lore

Therefore I am making this poll to allow you, dear readers, to choose which shadowy parts of my mind shall be illuminated first.

Fear not! Every topic here shall be discussed at length in due time, I simply wish to cater to my audience to the best of my ability.

As always, feel free to submit your own questions and delve deeper into the depths of lore

And without further ado, your options!

- Forever your faithful servant to the pen, ain💖

Guess the OC Tag!

Okay so I had this tag game idea and I don't know if it has been made before so here we go!

Rules: Make a list of facts about a certain OC but don't name them in it, then make a poll with your OCs from that WIP so people can vote and guess which character you're talking about!

Make a guess:

....this character once has killed more than 50 people in a single event

....this character has control over both destruction/decomposition and creation/recomposition

....this character was once an idealist but then was forced to watch someone he loved dearly be driven insane in one of themost brutal ways possible

....this character hates the taste of strawberry candy and his favorite desserts are chocolate eclairs

....this character has escaped from a high security prison multiple times and his powers grow even faster in isolation

....this character had a change of heart after making friends for the first time in years

....this character has died and been brought to life, as well as pulled apart and stitched back together at least three times in his past

....this character cannot sleep in complete darkness

....this character doesn't know how to use a microwave

....this character drives a black (and bulletproof) sports hovercar

....this character is afraid of moths

....this character has cut off the head of one of his enemies and mailed it as a christmas "gift" to said enemy's spouse

....this character had an older brother named Jason and a little sister named Daisy

....this character was betrayed by a mentor figure

....this character's M.O of killing people is to make it a game

....this character's frenemy/rival has electricity powers

Thanks for the tag @eccaiia

Rules: Make a list of facts about a certain OC, but don’t name them in it, then make a poll with your OCs from that WIP so people can vote and guess which character you’re talking about!

OC Poll Tag

Thank you @nczaversnick for the tag and @paeliae-occasionally for the tag!!

Rules: Make a poll with five of your all time favourite characters and then tag five people to do the same. See which character is everyone's favorite!

I've already done OC intros for 703, Fres, and Rage if anyone is curious, they're here, here, and here. Intros for Gerd and Asurr will probably follow in the next couple of weeks.

Tagging @halfbakedspuds @ominous-feychild @yourpenpaldee @aalinaaaaaa @anaisbebe and anyone else that wants to hop on!!

Following up on the Chaos color poll because I'm curious...

[ominous-feychild]

Psst... the Arcane Rifts fans...

Should I tag you guys on my "reviewing my notes" stuff? I have some thoughts that I've been making posts about, but haven't tagged you guys for one reason or another. Should I? They still contain actual tAR content, they just tend to be silly, haha.

Any of you guys use the "goth rave" coloration here on Tumblr? If you need to check to know, it's the primarily black-and-purple one! I've been working on setting colors for each of the characters and a certain birdie--Crow the Cursed's--color works for every appearance BUT the "goth rave" (because I've been making sure everything works regardless!)

Do you think I should use a color that doesn't suit them to make sure the "goth rave" users can easily see it? Idk because I've done my best but the fact that they're dark blue/purple makes it so it's going to be impossible to make it work, haha. (On computer, "goth rave" readers can highlight the text to read it anyways, but idk what mobile users could do.)

Tagging my followers because it's relevant to you guys!!!

Hey, guys, it's Barlowe (the Feychild) here in the flesh!

... wait. Am I in the flesh? You're reading this off a—wait, what IS this place!? HOW DID I GET IN HERE!?!?! WAIT, NO!!! DON'T G—

I have a bunch of things related to my writing I'm super excited to share with you, but before I can release any of them, I have some questions!

We'll start off easy!

Feel free to leave (formatting) feedback in the comments!

Example #1 | Example #2 | Example #3 | Example #4 (ignore the fact that these all feature the Existential of Magic LMAO)

Additional, thus-far-unreleased examples/attempts:

(I have WAY too many 80% complete drafts...)

Do you like any/all of these? (formatting-wise)

Do you have a preference for any of them over the others?

(Maybe I should make a separate poll for this lol) (Still, tell me what you think!?)

And feel free to react to the scenes in the comments lol. Fuel my mania. I beg of thee.

I've realized I have so many questions that I DEFINITELY need to make more than one poll, haha. But before I move onto tagging everyone on my lists (which, please ask if you want to be added or removed to any!) I have one last question—

Did you know I was this hyper / excitable? 👀 This question does not apply to those in the Discord server, where I'm constantly trolling @the-letterbox-archives lmao

There seems to be a "who of your OCs would win in a fight" thing going around...

(I've gotten tagged by two people, @illarian-rambling and-- actually I could've sworn I got tagged by another person but I can't find it??? Tell me if I missed it and I'll link it here, haha.)

Anyway! I actually have a literal in-universe "power tier list". I planned on eventually sharing it, but it's not really spoilerific, I was just pushing it off even though it's a thing I can copy-paste, haha. Should I share it along with a minor explanation and the positions of some of my characters in the stories?

Spoilerific details obviously won't be included, haha. 😂

The Changeling's Feychild's Very Important™ Poll #2!!! (and lorepost I guess)

Recently, (within the past couple months,) I've spoken a good bit about a pantheon of gods in my writing and worldbuilding: the Existentials!

To clarify to those not in the know: the Existential Gods are personifications of "the Existence of things" immense enough to gain consciousness! Their names have been lost to time and are important to many plots / revealing them would spoil things, so I've kept them redacted by instead calling the individual—the person—by their Existence!

For example, I've historically referred to the Existential of Magic as "Magic" rather than their full name of, well, "the Existential of Magic", haha. I'm sure we all can appreciate that brevity...

But... obviously, even if the Existentials' names are forgotten, people in-universe still have an awareness that these gods exist. They've just been misunderstood, or interpreted differently, and given their own unique names by different cultures.

Furthering my earlier example: the Existential of Magic as a person has been adopted by the citizens of the Faewildes as their own protector god, who they refer to as Ailwyn.

But... while they're called Ailwyn by faefolk, and technically are Ailwyn, the Existential of Magic themself is different from who faefolk think they are.

Ailwyn is believed to be calm and kind, but strict, whereas Magic themself is uh... quite assertive, sassy, and enjoys pushing people's buttons—both friend and foe alike.

Both Magic and Ailwyn are in control of the very same (definitely named) organization of guards that helps carry out their will across the Faewildes, but only Magic is also active in the Real World outside of the Faewildes.

Only Magic is an Existential, only Magic uses magic to enforce their will upon others, and only Magic is willing to get their hands dirty to get what they want.

All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares.

All cats are animals, but not animals are cats.

Magic is Ailwyn, but Ailwyn isn't the Existential of Magic.

So, this brings up the question:

Also, feel free to check out my first Very Important™ poll!

(Tagging all of my tag lists since it's highly relevant to how I present information in my stories!)
