Heyo! I know itās a bit of a long ask in the dark but I have been trying to find any of the alltheZPcharacter posts and I saw yours had a repost of Bozzwickās bio from Vivziepop/Vivzmind?
The link was broken though so I was just wondering if per chance you still had it in your likes or screenshots somewhere? Bozzwick and Castello are like the two I just cannot seem to find, any help appreciated but if not no worries, have a good one and thanks anyway!
Tumblr is a place to express yourself, discover yourself, and bond over the stuff you love. It's where your interests connect you with your
Iām afraid the only place youāll be able to view this is on a browser as it has been flagged by tumblr for having some form of adult content
I made a bunch of fakemon based off my mutualsā favourite types
I spun a google wheel to determine stuff like whether theyād be legendary, a regional variant, pseudo legendary, regular, etc; how many evo stages they have; and if they have any extra factor
Ended up withā¦.
A dark/fire variant of flygon
A pseudo legendary split evolution line of grass/steel Pokemon
A three stage ice/fighting Pokemon
And a Ghost/Dragon Legendary with an alternate form
These probably all look like absolute shit but
Idk let me know if you want me to go into detail about how I came up with this shit
New character design + the Shopkeepers of Dawnsview
So, here is a new character Iāve created recently.
This is Bakru, typically referred to as Roo.
They are a southern fairy born in a small town in Ecuador, and they moved to Dawnsview with their mother after she fell in love with a sailor from there.
Roo is a relatively older character, being in their late 20s. They witnessed the events of Bloody Sunday- an incident which marked the beginning of Dawnsviewās downfall into the hellhole it is now. They also witnessed their mother and stepfather be executed by soldiers during this event, but were able to escape themselves.
Nowadays, Roo runs a small shop by the harbour where they use fish bones to create salt, or make bits of jewelry. They also run a side business where they sell āfish oil pillsā as a way to scam some extra cash from the upper class. The other shopkeeper characters look up to Roo, since theyāve been able to keep themselves alive and run a business for this long.
Being a southern fairy, Roo has light manipulation abilities, which they mainly use to escape the view of others and hide.
Now, before we go into Rooās personalityā¦ I want to take a moment to touch on the other shopkeeper characters because what all of these characters share. They each are written to represent different viewpoints and perspectives of the citizens of Dawnsview.
From left to right, we have Poppet, Logan, and Wren
Poppet is a 15 year old Honduran bat shifter who was left to run a bakery alone following the death of her grandfather, who was her last surviving family member. Poppet is frequently stressed out, on the verge of a nervous breakdown, and is fully expecting one of her customers from the upper class to have her dragged off to prison over the slightest thing. Despite the frequent reassurance of others, she has been scarred by the fate of her parents, who were dragged off and presumably killed for very little reason beyond them missing a tax payment date. Poppet is sadly only one of many people who live in constant fear of those in power and are constantly expecting the worst to come at any moment
Logan was a genius entrepreneur and a brilliant chemist who was hoping to use her vinegar and cooking oil business as a launching point for further ventures. Following an accident that gave her a concussion, however, she was shipped into the ācareā of the kingdomās medical services. There, she was severely neglected and isolated, her condition being made far worse than it ever should have been. Eventually, despite clearly still suffering, she was released from hospital due to budget cuts. Taking on the responsibility of supporting herself and her three girlfriends (who are all in physically poor conditions), Logan is known as a mad, raving lunatic who runs the vinegar store. Between her wild conspiracy theories and frequently drinking her own product, she is a sad shell of her former self. Unfortunately, Logan is not a unique case, being one of many who have been driven to madness by the circumstances theyāre stuck in.
Yet Wren, a bird shifter who is also the local blacksmith, has a very different attitude to everything. Yes, he may have come to Dawnsview in hopes of finding good work only to wound up in a small shop, getting mediocre care after having to amputate his leg, and frequently has to put up with the snobbery of some rich fuck looking down at him as they demand only his finest work in exchange for pennies. But Wren still maintains hope that one day, everything will work out. He rebels in small ways, by tricking the rich into buying faulty products and secretly giving materials to those resisting the government. As dire as things get, there are those who wonāt allow themselves to be crushed underneath the boot of those in power.
Butā¦ what about Roo?
Simply put, Roo is the answer to āwhy doesnāt every citizen work together to overthrow the government? Why doesnāt everyone try to help each other out?ā
Roo has a reputation of being a two-faced weasel who will sell out anyone, betray anyone, and abandon anyone just to ensure their own survival. Throughout the years, they have turned a blind eye to others being put in peril, or actively suffering. They also will only very rarely voice their own opinions or ideals. Instead, they will tell people what they want to hear, and will avoid becoming involved with any kind of conflict.
Deep down, Roo deals with a massive amount of guilt for both their inaction to help others, and instances where theyāve pushed someone into the line of fire to save themselves. They have already accepted that they will likely not get to heaven, but they justā¦ keep moving forward. At this point in their life, all they can do is try to survive. Theyāll do their best to warn others of potential dangers ahead, and theyāve helped others start their own businesses to support themselves. After that thoughā¦ itās every man for themselves.
Roo represents the reality most citizens of Dawnsview face- they canāt afford to help others, even if they want to. They donāt have the power to offer assistance to others, and if they tried, itād only end in their misfortune.
Bakru still feels a certain protectiveness over others, namely the previously mentioned shop keepers. They helped Wren start his business, they help Poppet when and where they can, and they take it upon themselves to help Logan home whenever sheās wandered off to who knows where. Roo wants to see the people around them succeed. The thought of turning away should any of the others be in danger pains them, although they view it as inevitable.
Due to constantly grappling with their guilt and their nihilistic views, Roo is very reserved and not very talkative. Theyāre hesitant to open up to others and build any strong bonds. Yet they will gladly listen to others talk about their own dreams, interests, and experiences. They treasure the moments they have with others, and keeping the memories of those they could lose alive is perhaps the one thing left that motivates Roo to keep going.
[ID. Video of a woman recording an opera performance when her cat, fluffy and with bulging eyes, hops into frame. She stops singing and tries to push the cat slightly out of the way, but on her next cue the cat starts meowing before she can sing. The woman starts laughing as the cat continues meowing to the music, as though it was singing as well. End ID.]
More evidence that cats bond with us by mirroring us.
Iāve read accounts here on the Tumblr of a trans man whose cat lowered the pitch of their meow, after he started taking T. So I suspect this woman sings a lot around the house, and her cat is like: āThatās just how we do things in this clowder.ā
Me and @ nyxcharliechaos were making some regional variants for a Pokemon AU rp and I made some up
For pose references, I used official artwork for Ekans and Driftbloon, and a shot from the Pokemon anime for Minccino, and I reference them pretty heavily since I kinda wanted to make these look legit? Butā¦ failed.
The line stabilizer betrayed me with these as you can probably tell
Also, since these were pretty heavily referenced, Iām going to call these edits instead of my own art (especially since I donāt think it matches my own artwork that much?)

I tried to put links but Tumblr is not letting me

I decided to update my design of one of my main cast, Wasp
He is a fairy with the power to create illusions that can be physically interacted with. Heās also a former military trained medic who was trained in the Eastern Fairy kingdom practically from birth (the way the fairy kingdoms handle their armies are a bitā¦. Yeah).
Nationality wise, while any fairyās nationality is technically āambiguousā because they donāt follow the usual āthis is this country, this is that countryā, Wasp is most likely Japanese as his original wings (the yellow) are based off of a Japanese Swallowtail
He gets new wings, but thatās kind of a long story. Something something, he kinda hooks up with the grim reaper, donāt worry about it. These wings are inspired by a few different butterflies, including gothic butterflies
