Here's a little something I made for @YoukaiMountain to thank him for all the help with The Glitch Fairy merch!

Make sure to visit his shop if you are seeking a Fumo friend!

This art was inspired by @spiffybun 's original YM logo!

Countdown to Halloween Day 28- Nitori Kawashiro

Day 28 gives us the kappa inventor of Gensokyo- Nitori Kawashiro!

Here, she’s dressed as an actual Kappa- with a little green hat and a water bottle around her neck with a lanyard!

And yes, that is a reference to Walkappa from Yo-Kai Watch.

I love this game :)

doodled my 3 main skrunklys in yw4

[briefbestiary]

A strange yokai primarily known for its vocal skills. Prior to being established as a yokai, its existence was more hazy, somewhere between natural phenomenon and yokai, with various ideas of what may cause the reflected sounds including rocks or rare birds.

Uhhh, we're in the prologue rn, so I guess I'll share a Luana fun fact!

Despite wanting to live among mortals and not use magic, she really does enjoy the arcane side of the world-it's part of how she became a changeling to begin with!

As a child, her fascination with the friendly spirits in the forests and ocean nearby allowed her to befriend them-and so, when her home life became unbearable, one thing led to another, and off to the fae realm she went.

She's fascinated by the micro societies that hide behind the veil or beneath our feet, the divine precursors to the many lands in Eostella, interpreting magic to carry out your will, how personality impacts your interpretation of magic etc etc.

It's just that, for her, magic is a little bit of an arcane disability in the human realm. As someone who isn't human anymore, she has an access amount she generates from within, which of course outclasses the magic the average human has, mage and sublunary (a non-magic user) alike.

This should be a good thing, as magedom is an institution in the world of Eostella, and a powerful mage like her would surely be welcome into mage society...however, for Luana, her magic is directly tied to her non-humaness-if she uses magic, either from within or the environment, poof! A part of her body, or even her whole body, will shift into her weird rabbit-cat form-and generally speaking, magedom is not a fan of the neighbors living among humans, on top of them trying to keep the neighbors a secret from everyday folk.

So basically, Luana has to hide her other form from everybody in order to live among humans-and to do that, she can't lean into her magic or magic society, which means giving up this interest in her eyes. This also means that because mages are usually hostile to the idea of non-humans living with humans, and the average person knows nothing about neighbors and suppressing magic naturally, without a lot of help, she has to find a way to tame the wild magic within her to make her human (original) form her "default" look...and what's funny is, even as a "human" she has elfin ears, so even her human form has quirks she has to hide!

hey block people fans, so I really love the Tanuki Joel/Smallishbeans fanart goin around as inspired by @mellozheist's design and it made me think, what youkai (Japanese folklore monsters) would we portray the other Hermitcraft/Life Series members as? Some of the more obvious and fun ideas I thought of:

Scar - Kitsune, easy. Charismatic, cunning wiles, enterprising, known for tricking people, tendency to be wet cat on the rare instance you find his weakness. Also kitsune are rivals to tanuki (although Scar and Joel aren't really rivals so much as occasional partners in crime). You could alternatively choose the bakeneko because it's also a wiley shapeshifter and cat connection (RIP Jellie).

Grian - Tengu, also easy choice. Not just for the obvious pesky bird connection. Tengu are also trickster beings. They are sometimes evil (abducting humans) but sometimes benign and teach humans secret arts. They are excellent fighters and leaders, but just like a regular crow, they can just as easily goof off for no reason at all. Dangerously capable but also goofy bird fits Grian to a T.

Mumbo - Kappa, maybe? He's not associated with water much iirc but the kappa from not iRL folklore but a certain series are associated with engineering, and I needed an appropriate one for the Redstoners lol

Etho - Kamaitachi. Weasel with sharp blades. Like a tanuki (Joel), but consistently sneaky, while also being just a little guy. Can probably team up with Skizzle and Tango for the traditional trio of sneaky people with sharp blades. EDIT: I know there's fanart of him as a kitsune to match Tanuki Joel, and I'm by no means contesting that, this is just a fun alternative.

Cleo - Yamauba/Yamanba. I'M NOT CALLING CLEO AN OLD HAG, LET ME EXPLAIN. DANGEROUSLY FIERCE AND INTELLIGENT WITCH WHO LIVES IN THE MOUNTAINS AND IS JUST AS PROTECTIVE OF HER (potentially foster) CHILDREN AS MUCH AS SHE IS A TERROR TO THOSE WHO CROSS HER.

Bdubs/Skizzleman - Oni. They beeg. They angery. They not necessarily dumb but they stronk and one of them has lived in the mountains at least once. I can even see Bdubs being like a Sakata Kintoki spoof (the "son" of a yamanba a.k.a Cleo)

Jimmy - Yosuzume. Birds of bad luck. Canary curse. Need I explain more?

feel free to give alternative suggestions or ideas for the others, or ask me what youkai I think might fit certain traits, I may not know much about the block people but I know a little too much about Japanese folklore so this is just a fun exercise for me
