I just have to say these fortnite characters are prettier than all the others...... I know the last one is a man but just look at him. I wish Dusty and Selene weren't battle pass skins cause I really want them again and all the others on here 😭. I was also gonna add Birch and pj but I couldn't find any photos of them 😞

Vikora 💜
Didn’t expect to make a piece like this for her or a drawing at all, but sometimes my mind and hand aren’t in the same page.
What does that mean?
I don’t know myself but it make sense in the same time.
Love her though. 💜

➳ with Vikora but he just lets Shafan go when no one's looking lmao
pfpfpf trying to imagine this scenario.
"My Lord Vikora, our conquest of the southern plains is successful! Your generals would like to present to you as a gift of fealty the spoils of war, this... smelly rat guy! They're very loud, and they bite! Have fun!" They drop Shafan and run for it.
Nah actually I could romance novel this up real easy. Vikora's taken in young by some opportunistic highblood who promises him protection from culling for being a mutant if he becomes this guy's weapon. He's trained up as a mutant killing machine, an unbeatable champion, given every thing he desires as long as he's willing to kill at his master's behest. Shafan was working both sides, bringing supplies to the rebels and helping them escape ahead of the highblood's army, but also feeding the army information in order to protect themselves and their ability to move freely, when they're double dealing comes back to bite them in the ass when the rebels find out and leave them trapped and tied up for the enemy to find. Perhaps Vikora sees them and claims them to keep them from being killed, or maybe someone else decides to "reward" Shafan for being a rat by not killing them immediately instead giving them to Vikora, fully expecting Vikora to eat them. But, surprise, Shafan tastes terrible! They're an awful dumpster diving dirt creature, no one wants to put that in their mouth! Vikora insists on bathing them first, and upon seeing them cleaned up and pretty and defiant, discovers he's still reluctant to eat them...

> You were kind of incapable of blushing.
> A low trill of a purr rumbled pleasantly in your broad chest though as well as the tip of your long tail swaying to and fro against the ground.
> You have been blessed. Your crops are watered and your skin is clear.
I was on the fence with this crazy thought but.. fuck it. 💋 Vikora and [REDACTED]
> You make a low thrumming sound in your chest.
“Be still, just a moment, little one.”
> You lean to bonk your mouth against his forehead. Afterwards you make a pleased sort of repetitive chuffing from your gills.

A stream-of-thought essay about why Epic always misses the mark when it comes to rendering concept art - (it's deliberate)
Someone sent me this tiktok in Discord. https://www.tiktok.com/@squid3363/photo/7400670204356791582 It is a common gripe in the Fortnite player community: Epic seems to have a hard time rendering community concept art into in-game skins. Some renderings are spot-on - many are not. The first skin that ever made me go "WTF?" was Lorenzo from the Chapter 4: Season 3 Battle Pass (not in the TikTok). The final render is on the left. The original is on the right.
I wasn't thrilled with the render. I would have liked gray skin. It would've matched better. But then again, I never squinted at the concept art hard enough. I deadass thought - hoped - Lorenzo would have cat ears. To be fair, much of the concept's flair relied on that money-shot - seemingly with strategically-placed fans-in in the studio during the photo shoot.
I mean, I wouldn't mind having my coattails and tie ever defying gravity during a match. (My main is an anime skin - I know I'm seen from across the map. I've accepted my fate u.u ).
But I understand if Epic anticipated that most players would not appreciate gravity defiance.
Moving on...
The next WTF? moment I felt was with Medusa. I wasn't head over heels for the concept, but she was passable. But I knew a friend that was. The final render... made me feel bad, even for said friend :/
So I thought "Maybe it's the poly count?". I mean round corners = more faces, right? Epic manages to break something new with each update, we can't afford a buggy battle pass item, no?
Aphrodite? Maybe it's the polycount and they want to stay on-brand as Fortnite. Maybe they don't want to be confused with League of Legends? Maybe fantasy-esque drip isn't allowed?
And the parade of misses go on. It's all in the TikTok slide. I tried to look for a pattern. For some of them, it seems to be the face meshes. Namely the sausage lips.
Maybe it takes research to re-rig a new facial mesh for all of the emotes to work properly. As someone whos dabbled with animation in IMVU, which has a jillion different head meshes as far as the eye can see, I can concur - making the same "move this around instructions" look good on "everyone" is a royal pain in the ass. Virtually possible without making unique animations for each skeleton/mesh)... ...or maybe the department head just really likes sausage lips. I'm not one to judge. Some like 'em older and milfy, I dunno. Except some heads seem to have smaller lips, to negate that... And then there was Vikora.
She is from a summer quest - the same season one of the Lorenzos came out, (there's a couple of those). I can't recall which, but I have her. Something always seemed off about this one, Like, it was unique. It was fun - but in the OC-unique in the way that you sort of felt half of the flair was tamed. Maybe the proportions? I dunno. Whatever. I just wanted her set's wrap. I'd never seen her concept before seeing the tiktok today, and now, I want to fight someone. W.T.F. The hair. Just the hair. The original artist had made sure to put the bigger tuft on her left so that it would not interfere with aiming down sights. There was no reason to remove her hair. And why change the stockings? What was wrong with her stockings? Fortnite has multiple female outfits with fishnet stockings - "PG" arguments will fall on deaf ears.
And her belt chain? Changing the chain links from hoops to squares seems arbitrary AF. It was the chain that gave me the passing thought: "This is the behavior of an artist that got smitten by someone else's design, but doesn't want to get accused of stealing... but also really really doesn't want to give credit, either".I'm not against those that get smitten. I have gotten smitten. You cannot fight the smitten - you can only crawl for months - if not years - making changes that you will only ever 70 percent comfortable be with until you just...get used to your abomination, to the sacrilege you've committed against someone else's perfect design, just to make it "your own" and avoid cancelation, (Or in my case, I just didn't know how to 3D mesh, but IMVU allows what's essentially crude kitbashing. I know what my global PFP was supposed to be)... ...But those are little artist problems. It's just weird that a big company would do this while little artists are literally throwing their designs at you to be rendered. Then the possibility struck me: All of Epic's misses are deliberate, but for entirely legal reasons. Possible reasons:
1. Fear of Future Royalty Demands
Artists are human. Sometimes, those humans want money. Sometimes, even when humans agree on how much money should be exchanged for a good or service, (even if it is no money at all), some of those humans still want more money. They will take you to court to get said money.
In a somewhat related tidbit, I vaguely remember VivziePop, the creator of Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss, was once quoted as saying that she won't allow cameos of her fan's OCs in her shows specifically for this reason.
Legal issues can be an annoying little thing that can dismantle an empire. Epic is no different.
Epic might be "missing" the mark on purpose with its concept art in order to meet some nebulous" internet common law" "30% Rule" in order to protect themselves later down the road.
The laws around art are changing, which bring me to my next proposed reason for missing the mark:
1. Fear of AI
Now, please hear me out: I am not accusing any community concept artists of doing anything. I'm just saying that in the age of AI, the possibility of this happening is becoming more likely.
It is entirely possible that some of the concepts presented to Epic could be AI-generated. I am not saying the concept art themselves are AI, mind you - I'm guessing by the consistent art style used in the surveys, that these images are all rendered in-house by the same team at Epic (But hell - someday, I could be wrong on that assumption).
I'm suggesting the general designs could be AI generated.
Is design separate from the art depicting that design? I dunno. I'm not a lawyer. IMO, seeing as how most AI models at the time of writing struggle to create a consistent character sheet, I would think not. Design requires consistency, which most models seem to lack.
In the US, AI-generated images cannot obtain copyright protection - not without some human element.
If Epic makes the mistake of accepting a concept from the community that turns out to originate from an AI generation, they run the risk of losing the rights to said character.
Epic HAS to make human changes to the concept art, in order to cover their arses from bad actors in the future.
I just wish they were visually "good" changes.
Ok. That's the end of that theory-essay. Time to go shower and gently pet my plants

{Cont. of Closed RP}
((Can’t believe tumblr broke like that >:V)) @anarchy-trolls
Vikora peered over his shoulder with a small smirk. “That’sss not why I would take off your head..” he said, turning back to face the room. It was quaint. Like a one-room hivestem. A lot of the shelves, the furniture, even the fireplace was carved out of the stone, decorated with alternian runes and little snakes. He didn’t even have a recuperacoon, just a slab piled on with various furs. He did have various knick-knacks and books, a rug, a few candles to help light up the rest of the room.
He moved to get the fireplace started, the cavern being a constantly cool temperature enough to warrant it. “Dessspite your wordsss and tone, your body language betraysss you.” he glanced over with a teasing smirk. “You find me attractive..”

BOOM
Violet Goras quadmates >:3
His Kismesis is Jade Galekh, he has a caring college professor vibe, and has some weird sense of when Gora’s around (Tagora definitely tries to sneak up on him alot to test it). He takes on a role similar to Bronya in canon- Head of his cloister and giving various orders. He’s kinda stressed over it but he’ll manage.
His Matesprite is mutant Vikare (who disguises as a rust). Despite his blood colour he’s quite confident, and speaks semi-openly about how he dislikes the Alternian government. He’s not an idiot though- so if he’s speaking with Highbloods, he’s sure that said highbloods won’t kill him for his thoughts or his blood. He mostly sticks to Tagora, Galekh, and Nihkee for sharing his thoughts though. He wears heavily tinted goggles to hide his bright red iris’ He’ll also try to keep strangers at a distance just in case.
And to everyone’s surprise: Tagoras moirail is teal Nihkee- she’s very similar to canon Nihkee- though more cool headed and technical. Her strength is considered to be a mutation, but she’s proud of it. Most of her time with Tagora is spent keeping him on track with various things he needs to do from day to day. Tagora doesn’t know what he’d do without her, honestly. She has that “strict teacher” vibe about her- but she has moments of overwork where she’ll just break down a bit... If Tagora isn’t there to do the moirail thing, it’s common to find her office absolutely destroyed. Which calms her temporarily- Until she realizes she now needs to add cleaning her office to the ever growing list of tasks.
While there is no auspistice for his and Galekhs relationship, Vikare and Nihkee will split them up if they get too heated. It’s very common to see all four of them hanging out together, as Tagora has brought the other three pretty close. This has resulted in Vikare (who is hiveless) to hang around at least one of the other three- most commonly Galekh, as the Caverns have a strong sense of calm where Vikare feels safest, though he’ll also find his way into Tagora’s hive- whether Tagora is home or not. He’s certainly been caught before- and almost Culled, but Tagora happened to be on his way home at the time and stopped the highblood before he’d be out a matesprite.
Tagora is the shortest of them... btw- He’s barely shorter than Nihkee.
