My complex thoughts and emotions about ancients cleverly discuised as ocs....

i will def be taking part in this :D

Rain World fans, I have a challenge for you

Create slugcats based on the 14 passages available in downpour (yes, I counted them) ↓

If you wanna go above and beyond, you can create slugcats based on the 10 karmas as well :D

Notes:

If you try this, please tag with the "#rw passage scugs project" tag so I can see them/find them easily

For individual passage scugs please tag them "#rw passage scugs [insert passage here]" (e.g. "#rw passage scugs Outlaw" or "#rw passage scugs Martyr"), this post will have all the tags related to this in its own tags

NO, YOU CANNOT DRAW CANON SLUGCATS FOR THE SAINT, HUNTER, MONK, AND SURVIVOR PASSAGES

Please don't copy from modcats with passage names (e.g. The Friend from Solace or the Wanderer from Drought)

Try to be creative, don't take ideas from others without asking first

If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask them!

Have fun!

Etho: "Mumbo, can you convey emotion? Like, can you sound angry or happy or anything?"

Mumbo: "RAHHHHH! GRAAAAH!"

Etho: "OK, he's excited, he's excited."

Mumbo: "No, I'm angry!"

There's an open pit in the middle of our office plan that drops down into a bunch of very sharp spikes that kill you instantly. This is bad. People keep falling in there and dying. Someone put a sign up, the other day, all bright yellow so you can't miss it, that says "Beware!!! Spikes!!!"

The office immediately split into two factions over it. One says that if anyone falls in the spike pit it's their own fault for being so stupid and not watching where they're walking, so we should remove the sign. The other says that the sign is an insult, there shouldn't be a spike pit in our office at all, and having the sign up like that is just normalising the existence of the spike pit, so we should remove the sign.

We ended up removing the sign. Probably for the better. Still... for a while there it looked like it might have worked...

Something about miners getting attached to the canary to the point they try to give them a fighting chance, except this time it's the miner that gets killed.

thank you! :D

hi! i saw your ancient design and i think its really well done - it feels like it fits into the game really well, just a really cool design all round ^^

i was hoping i’d be able to draw it? and if i do, wondering if id be able to post it to my blog? with your account tagged of course

no pressure if you’d prefer i didn’t post it tho, keep up the wonderful designs and have a nice day/night :D

Thank you so much, I'm glad you like it!! I don't mind if you draw my lil' guy, as long as you give proper credits, it's all good! Hope you have a good day/night too :)

i've drawn enough of them. be free now. go. into the wild with you all

[will-bonna]

Got back into rainworld again, Randomly got really inspired to draw my own little ancients oc?? I dunno, I just really liked the design I made up. I'll draw more slugcats or smth later, because the RW hyperfixation is swinging at me like a sledge hammer

after watching several povs, there's something so striking about the way mumbo died.

he dies at home, first of all, which is notable in its own right because so much of his time was spent running about, usually in pursuit of kills. he dies with grian, too— to a thing grian created, no less, but it isn't actually grian's fault for once.

mumbo dies in that tall tower and when lightning strikes, from all across the server, everyone looks. their eyes land on that tower, and everyone is watching. even in grian's perspective, you can see everyone at renwood mound, lined up and staring. those at the bamlands looked on too.

they didn't see mumbo die, but they saw grian's grief. grian, who, throughout this season, has seemed cruel and untouchable to those outside of his circle due to his involvement with and knowledge of the wild cards. they watch grian immediately crumble under the weight of mumbo's death; several of them even explicitly comment, "look at grian, he's grieving, he's in mourning."

i like to that that, until that moment, grian was almost god-like in their minds; now, though, he's the quintessential concept of humanity. grief can be religious if you do it right, after all. even beyond the grian aspect though, isn't this just the most despairing omen of what's to come?

i mean, there's something about this image of a man fallen from grace, crying out as he holds the mangled corpse of his friend in the home they made together, high in the sky, on display for all the world to bear witness to. and the world did bear witness, be it with pity, horror, joy... it doesn't matter, because they saw.

the canary curse has been broken, but this was a fittingly foreboding, tone-setting image that did a stunning job filling its shoes

Oh, those dastardly Eel Lizards. figured these guys deserve a bit more of an interesting look, so I gave 'em a bit more of a seaweed vibe. Their breath probably smells really bad, stinking of fish and seagrasses and any unfortunate creatures that fall in the water. I also like to think that every so often the Water Glow-worms will tag along, for protection and to help pick any dead skin or parasites off of the lizard. their big ungainly (but still presumably articulated) flippers probably make them slightly worse at climbing then the ones ingame, though. I also like to think they've got nasty narrow ol' Chameleon eyes to look around underwater. Fun stuff.
