happy tenth anniversary to the game that made me who i am now. thank you for helping me get better at drawing, for shaping the way i view the world, for teaching me to forgive. i hope i can love you for 999 more years â€ïž
oc posting in the big 25 đ„ (do people even like ocs anymore? is it a past thing??)
and it's with the dumbest audio possible too. like. this is the first impression yall will have of them.
it feels bad to just drop this without saying anything so below is a LORE DUMP!! (spoiler free edition!!)
this takes place in a post-apocalyptic fantasy world. ten years ago, the world was plagued by an undead epidemic, kind of similar to zombies or vampires (who do NOT exist in this world though). these undead are characterized by being skinned. in this world, between skin and muscle vital energy (which gives life and allows magic to be used) is stored. those who are skinless are thus unable to retain vital energy and need to constantly feed themselves energy by eating living beings's skin, thus furthening the epidemic.
cut to the present day and the epidemic, despite allowing civilization to persist, has spread to the whole known world, especially in the highly populated regions. during all these years the authorities did next to nothing to end the problem, except for unsuccessfully looking for a cure.
...but what if a cure did, in fact, exist? this is what a group of five kids are going to ask themselves. coming from very different backgrounds and brought together by destiny, they are going to join their forces and look for a cure to save the world
CHARACTERS!! (in order of appearence + color coded because everyone has a specific color. may also add character description IF i feel like it. dont count on it tho. also yes, some of them have no name because i suck at names. lmao.)
Half skinned guy, healer, 16 yo, he/him (pretend this is yellow please thanks)
Fox guy, mage, 14 yo, he/him
Nymphea (spelling may vary), archer, 17 yo, she/her
yes i am presenting my OCs to the world in the big '25 đ„ (do people still like them anymore?)
and yes. i am doing it with the dumbest tiktok audio mankind has ever witnessed. i literally don't care (i could post an old character sheet one of these days though...)
uhm anyhow i guess i can't drop this and leave y'all without any info whatsoever so under the cut there's a LORE DUMP!! (spoiler free edition!!)
this is set in a post-apocalyptic fantasy world. ten years ago, the world was suddenly plagued by an undead epidemic. Similar to vampires or zombies (which do NOT exist in this universe), those affected are characterized by being skinned. in this world, between skin and muscle vital energy (which gives life and allows magic to be used) is stored. those who are skinless are thus unable to retain vital energy, and constantly need to feed themselves energy by eating living beings' vital energy, thus creating new undead.
cut to the present day and despite still allowing civilizations to somewhat exist, the epidemic ha sspread to the whole known world, especially in the highly populated regions. the authorities never did anything about it except for unsuccessfully looking for a cure.
but what if a cure did in fact exist? that's what a group of five kids are going to ask themselves. coming from very different backgrounds and brought together by destiny and the desire to change the world, they are going to set off for adventure, character development, and solving both the problem and the mystery of the skinned epidemic.
characters in order of appearence! (color coded because everyone has a specific color). maybe if i feel like it i'll make a description about each of them later. also yes. most of them are nameless although i've had them for 4 years. i suck at names. lmao.
Half-skinned guy, 16 yo, healer, he/him

sketch and yapping under the cut (im feeling chatty tonight so yuh)
oh my gOD can you tell i have no idea what i'm doing? like i felt bad having her floating in white void so i thought let's put an aestethic bg but i'm not an âšïžaestethic gworlieâšïž so the Great Wave is the best i could've done. but THEN she looked even worse floating in front of some waves so i tried giving the bottom a melty look??? and it looks legit to me but then again its almost 5 am so idk.
also i feel like i should say that this isn't a new drawing, it has actually been sitting in my flipaclip projects for months (togetger with my 93647282 other wips) waiting to get a decent bg so it could be posted lol. the original was a drawing i made on my math textbook, i'm putting that too at the bottom
also rant time but i feel like the 8BW brainrot is hibernating again :/ bro ts pmo so bad i just wanna be part of a fandom aughhhhh
