Team CNFE's Dorm Room

Dedicated to my oc RWBY teams: Team CNFE, and Team ACUA. (Confetti and Aqua) Plus, a ton of other OCs. Randomness and absurdity abound. Asks and roleplays welcome.

[subdee]

Just an extremely Normal thing to say

Reminder they want to increase the budget for ICE from 3.5 to 45 billion dollars.

Reminder the majority of that will be for building new detention centers.

Reminder ICE are *currently* detaining tourists who can pay for a plane ticket home and people with visa issues that were already resolved, because they have to make quota so Trump can brag about the numbers going up.

Reminder most of these people were already in the immigration system - that's why they were easy to detain.

Reminder this is all at taxpayer expense.

Reminder these are people.

[necronomipod]

Reminder that these are people

Si la migra aparecen en su puerta

no abras la puerta. Estate calmado. Usted tiene derechos.

Si piden entrar, pregunten si tienen una orden firmada por un juez.

Si dicen que lo tienen, piden verlo.

Una orden de administración de ICE (formulario 1-200, 1-205) no les permite entrar a su hogar sin su consentimiento.

Si no tienen una orden firmada por un juez, usted puede negarse a dejarlos entrar

Si se fuerzan, no resistan. Dile a todos en la residencia que permanezcan en silencio.

Si usted es arrestado, permanezca en silencio y no firme nada hasta que hable con un abogado.

Before the new ep drops-

have some concept arts for creepy fog ocean Grimm!

They lurk in shadows!

enjoy! :)

[beaconmisfits]

Hey! Love these concepts! I thought of something similar years back when I first came up with my ocs!

[beaconmisfits]

Have a sketch:

Niveos' weapon.

"Collapsed for carry.

Blade retracts into itself, collapses further by slightly rotating."

[beaconmisfits]

Post Edit: the name of the weapon is Crescente Arenae, which means "Growing Sandstorm".

Have a sketch:

Niveos' weapon.

"Collapsed for carry.

Blade retracts into itself, collapses further by slightly rotating."

When you design an OC's outfit, and you've taken inspiration from one of those posts (the ones with a collection of original outfit ideas).

So, I'm refraining from posting the pictures I've taken of my sketch, because I don't want to take credit for and from another's work. Even if the original source was adoptable, and that's a big "if", I'm not sure I'm comfortable yet.

R.I.P. me.

[soft-butch-cassidy]

I was getting pretty fed up with links and generators with very general and overused weapons and superpowers and what have you for characters so:

Here is a page for premodern weapons, broken down into a ton of subcategories, with the weapon’s region of origin. 

Here is a page of medieval weapons.

Here is a page of just about every conceived superpower.

Here is a page for legendary creatures and their regions of origin.

Here are some gemstones.

Here is a bunch of Greek legends, including monsters, gods, nymphs, heroes, and so on. 

Here is a website with a ton of (legally attained, don’t worry) information about the black market.

Here is a website with information about forensic science and cases of death. Discretion advised. 

Here is every religion in the world. 

Here is every language in the world.

Here are methods of torture. Discretion advised.

Here are descriptions of the various methods used for the death penalty. Discretion advised.

Here are poisonous plants.

Here are plants in general.

Feel free to add more to this!

[thejovianmute]

An exceedingly useful list of lists for writers.

[sapphofinch]

i would take a bullet for you op i hate having to look up gemstones for fucking dragon names or jewelry

[develop-your-oc]

Which OC disregards the opinions of others and truly doesn’t care what anyone else thinks?

[mckinlily]

Six Sentence S-day

I was tagged by @braincoins. No idea what an S-day is supposed to be, but apparently you’re supposed to post that last six sentences of your fic you wrote.

I’ll tag… @void-tiger and @synergetic-prose and whoever else wants to!

“All right, Platt, that is quite enough. Really, now, it’s time to come out—”

“Are you…giving the mice a bath?”

Allura jumped and nearly upset the basin of soapy water in front of her. Then, to her horror, she felt her face heat up in a massive blush. “Shiro! I-I didn’t hear you come in!”

He ducked his head, a dust of pink touching his cheeks. “Sorry.”

The last of the Grimm falls, its body disintegrating even before it hits the ground. It's not what holds Viridian's gaze though. Amidst the carnage, the blood, the black ichor of the Grimm, there, standing before him, is Acrylic. As handsome as the last he'd seen him. There's a couple of minor slashes dotting his face. And his face has filled out with maturity and adulthood. And the later stages of five o'clock shadow lines his jaw. He's beautiful and handsome all in one shot- it steals Viridian's breath. And by the look in Acrylic's eyes, that have by now found his- Acrylic feels the same.

[tag-that-oc]

tag the oc that's lactose intolerant but still consumes dairy

[beaconmisfits]

Can an Arab coded OC wield a pair of chakrams, which originate in Indian culture?

I'm asking because I honestly don't know and all my online research isn't really helping without an actual human perspective. And additionally, I'm White-American. I'm genuinely asking because I don't know, and I want to include relevant perspectives and input into my creative process.

They're an experienced team known and employed by Salem, though with much less frequency. They're their own entities and just want the world to slip to darkness, regardless of what happens to them. Where WTCH has their own respective goals, Team MNSD doesn't. Very much good at surveillance and reconnaissance.

Revised Weapon Description

(I'll try to be as articulate as possible. That said, I can't guarantee proper translations, nor proper Dust mechanics.)

Hellebore Chrysochlorous

As an Atlas Academy student, Hellebore designed and smithed his weapons himself (as all Huntsmen Academy students do). They're a pair of twin wrist-blades combined with a rifle. The wrist-blades are mounted to a metalic bracer that covers the entire forearm, and can withdraw and collapse into the bracer. A second pair of shorter blades pop out downwards to bracket the wrist and sides of the hand. Running between each blade is a rifle's barrel which fires Gravity and Fire Dust ammunition. Said ammunition circles the bracer on a belt similar to both Yang and Coco's ammunition. Together the bracers are named "Aeternum" and "Semper", which is Latin for "Forever" and "Always". Uniquely, the right bracer has an indentation-like port where his scroll can fit to monitor aspects of combat, like Aura levels and threats.

Echium Watercress

Both her and Viridian's weapons were smithed by their blacksmith father. Essentially they're a pair of bladed metal fans. Echium's tailor mother made the fan's fabric. They're named "Fluctus" and "Altum", roughly translating to "Wave" and "Crest" in Latin, too. The bolt that holds the fans together is actually a Gravity Dust crystal, though; and smithed into the tips of the outer blades is Gravity Dust as well. The fans can combine together to form a short bow with the Gravity Dust forming a bowstring of sorts. And what's an archer's bow without arrows? She has a quiver that holds a total of twenty-four arrows, with eight to a different Dust type (three groups of eight). The Dust types are: Water, Ice, and Mist.

Viridian Foxglove

Viridian utilizes a pair of sai called "Dolor" and "Voluptas", meaning "Pain" and "Pleasure". Both use interchangeable vials of Dust that can be inserted into and withdrawn from the tsukagashira. He uses Wind, Ice, and Earth Dust. Using the Dust he can augment his attacks accordingly

Niveos Nemesia

Living in Vacuo, one makes do with what they have and find. Which is just what Niveos did before attending Beacon, in Vale. She'd found it while her and her family lived nomadically, before coming across a destroyed camp. As far as names go, she calls it "Crescente Arenae", or "Growing Sandstorm" (again in Latin). Niveos' weapon is a variant bladed staff, as it has crescent blades on both ends. Circling the blades' circumference is an orifice that fires beams of Dust. In the very center of the blade is a slot for raw Dust crystals to be inserted. She mainly uses Sound and Sand Dust. The blades and staff collapse into itself for carrying by being cinched to the waist.

[beaconmisfits]

Bringing this back around.

I'm renaming Viridian's weapons to "Felicità" and "Tristezza", which means "Joy" and "Sadness" in Italian
