~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Colli prefers he/she/it pronouns but is fine with any pronouns you throw at him. Her color is orange, but if you fancy using HTML, her exact hex code is #C2734E Just as some general appearance notes, he is very tall, pretty much built like a brick house, with draconic features, wears mostly oranges with hints of purple, and constantly carries around bags, satchels or pouches, for collecting purposes.

I, the mod, am an artist who draws sometimes! But I suck ass at focusing so I have no official design for this man yet 😔✌️ In the meantime, if you make any fanart, please please please do tag me because I'd love to see it

I'm 20 and I go by any pronouns! I live in the CEST/CST timezone but I have a shitfucked sleep schedule, shitty internet and unmedicated ADHD so i might take a while to reply </3 I'm unsure if I want to share my main yet, since this is a sideblog, but if you somehow manage to find it in the sea of blogs on this webbed site, feel free to say hi there i guess lmao

What are you doing here still? Go collect stuff!

[character-profiles]

remember when I hard reset my character and killed off all the other ones in some attempt to reignite my passion?

Wow, what was I thinking? Anyway I’m feeling nostalgic. What’s been going on? On tumblr, nothing, I can see, but on the discord?

(We've all largely moved onto other things, but we still occasionally revisit our characters and talk about the arcs. What we loved, what could have done better, what we never got to do, stuff like that. No serious writing for the epprbcu, just nostalgic conversations.) (also, sorry for taking so long to check this inbox. I haven't logged onto my main accounts on any platform for ages ever since I switched phones. I keep meaning to but i always put it off.)

[cryptotheism]

My favorite thing about the current wave of gimmick blogs is watching them get involved in beef, while in character as a bit that was already 3/10 at best. That's pure Tumblr right there.

[cryptotheism]

I see a blog called "i-hand-people-cucumbers" commenting on posts like "oh so you think I should kill myself just because I said I would have voted for George W Bush?" And I think yes I am home.

[status-updates]

But watch out!

[collectibles-menu]

WHAT HAPLENED

lots!

multiple people, most of em minors (of various ages, like. 13 to 17 at the time of the offenses) came out with receipts of kschwal trying to trick them into doing vore or tiny/giant kink rp. i'm one of em, but we were both adults at the time, and he's always been relatively lowkey with me and passed under my radar because i thought it was just a "would you love me if i was a bug" thing. he's been worse with multiple other people but i won't force them to come out with it publicly unless they want to.

reminder that we literally had to introduce a rule on the server specifically to disallow all conversations about vore BECAUSE OF HIM. he says it's a sfw kink but sfw or not, you can't drag people into your kinks without their full consent, and especially not teens several years younger than you.

after we banned him (we didn't have the full extent of what he'd done, mind you), he was radio silent for a while and then went back to dm'ing some of us, INCLUDING MORE MINORS, playing on the fact some of us were out of the loop on the more aggravating proof to make himself look like a martyr.

note that the publicizing of this shit started because he also hasn't been updating his bio to let people know he's an adult now (has been for literally 2 months), or to take his exes out of his bio. he's updated the QPR section but not the age thing as far as i'm aware. i wouldn't know, his ass blocked me to try to save face.

he was also weirdly parasocial with me during the union thing but at this point it's almost nothing compared to what some of our younger members have had to deal with from him.

Their age has been updated but ☝ everything else still stands.

[collectibles-menu]

so kschwal blocked me. erm!

yeah if you're mutuals with him or god forbid in a QPR, get Out of there! he's also literally been an adult for 2 months now and hasn't been updating his bio for that nor to take his exes out of it.

i know there's a lot of minors in this community which is why i feel it's important to warn y'all of what happened. stay safe <3

[affricative--collective]

how much suffering do i have to go through before i can be forgiven?

none. do better in the future.

none. you'll never be forgiven.

as much as you caused others.

it will never be enough.

none of the above.

[collectibles-menu]

you CANNOT be pulling this shit to try to garner some sympathy from ANYONE who wouldn't know what you did.

you were caught grooming epprbcu members as young as 13, dragging unwitting participants into kink rp, and went to try to downplay what happened after being banned with people who were out of the loop. you're not a martyr, you're an immature manchild who can't get through his head the fact that he's 18 and that he needs to fucking act like it.

frankly you should feel lucky we didn't immediately come out with this publicly, but this was the straw that broke the camel's back.

[character-profiles]

Last Union Update:

We couldn't come to an agreement. Oh well! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Don't worry though, way too many people care about the project for it to go anywhere! A few of us intend to go private with our characters, but for the most part its still on [tumblr]. It depends on if the blog runners are comfortable writing publicly or not. There may be a blog made to keep you guys up to date on those who decided to take their stories off [tumblr], but if not, it'll likely be on this blog!

Which gets me to my next point, it is highly likely I'll have Prof go private as well to some degree, but this does not mean I'll stop posting! This blog has acted as a pseudo-hub for information, lore, official art, fanart, and announcements in the epprbcu, and will continue to try and serve this function along side the collective mod blog(@epprbcu). Prof may also return to [tumblr] for specific interactions. There are also the drones and BEACON for specific conditions, but that isn't really important.

"What about your other characters?" Doc', Phys, and the Dittos will remain on [tumblr] for the most part. My currently inactive blogs will remain inactive, as I don't really have any plans for them currently.

As for the discord itself, there is a new server with a different way of managing things. It is also going to be closed from the public, so new members will more than likely be refused entry. Sorry! For those who have been around for a while, but never joined the original(you dodged a bullet. Several, in fact.), feel free to message me for either an invite to the new one, or to just get updates on any important developments going on in the server.

That is all for now! -Mango, mod of character-profiles

[character-profiles]

In regards to EPPRBCU

I think we can all agree this is overdue. Several members of the EPPRB community have come together and formed an agreement, a union of sorts, to force some overdue changes regarding the problems of both the discord server, and how we’ve been treating the community aspect of this project as a whole.

As of now, the demands should have been publicized and we invite any members of the EPPRBCU community, whether or not they are in the discord server, currently in the EPPRBCU, or planning to join the EPPRBCU, to hold off on contributing to the EPPRBCU project until we have confirmation our demands are being met.  I, of course, will be partaking in the union’s actions and will be waiting to relay information about the situation in the discord server to those of you who are interested in the ongoings of the community as a whole. As much as I have loved writing for this silly project and its community I can’t see the project continuing the way it is now without major active changes in regards to how we’ve been treating each other.  To reference Anton’s argument, there have been cases of people committing acts that would get others banned, but somehow still being present. There is also the point of how some of us, Anton included, are reckless and biased, saying harmful things that are unnecessary and unwarranted. Anton, as much as she brings up valid points, actively contributed to the problem and has proven to be unwilling to improve his own behavior, thus the refusal to let him back in. In regards to Anton’s situation; He left of her own accord, we just chose not to open the door again.  This should, hopefully, be the last time I say anything regarding that specific situation. As for Entropy, Mod of DeathScreenMessages, the amount of say the community has allowed them in regards to the issues and various incidents going on in the community has proven to be ill-placed and must be adjusted accordingly. Individual members must recognize that while we are a community, parasocial behavior and complete reliance on others is an issue we have not been taking as many measures to prevent as we should have.  We were warned about these issues by Mewo almost a year ago, who remains ever justified in their stance regarding the server and has been proven correct in his assumption time and time again. This will be harsh, especially coming from me, someone who still wholeheartedly believes the project itself is not only capable of being continued but also worthy of it. If the project dies because of this, then it was never meant to exist as it did.

[collectibles-menu]

You must be reeeeal fun at parties, huh? /sarc

I can't hear you over the sound of Prof and I having fruit skewers together.

[collectibles-menu]

*If you look up, you'd notice a speck of orange and purple in the sky..*

*Something seems to have happened, as the orange speck splits off from the purple speck and is now.. screaming*

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH-

*..And it is hurtling directly towards you*

- @character-profiles

OH FUCK THAT WAS LITERAL-

[With no time to waste panicking, Colli spreads her wings and takes off like a rocket, kicking up dust as she soars into the sky. She overshoots on purpose, appearing like a shadow rising over Prof.

Before he has the time to recognize it, it dives straight towards him and catches him in his fall. Soon, it spreads its wings again, and the freefall slows into a safe landing.

The curator's wings fold behind his back again as he reassures a most definitely scared Prof.]

I got you- I got you. You're alright.

[character-profiles]

HOLY SHIT. BY THE FUCKING DEV- COLLI!?

*Prof stumbles out of Colli's grasp, nearly tripping over himself in the proccess*

Oh my devs. I haven't seen you in... Forever! That was one hell of a catch- Oh my- Hoo-

*He leans down, resting his hands on his knees, catching his breath*

Oh boy. Okay. Thank the artists I don't have actual bones, I definitely would've broken them all by now-

[collectibles-menu]

I was, uhm, sleeping. I didn't expect to be gone for that long either, I'll admit.

But, nevermind that- How in the world did you end up in this situation? Did you step on a poorly modeled pebble? It happened to me once, horrible thing.

[character-profiles]

N-No. My friend, Phys, just decided the best way to get to the festival was to be blasted at mach speeds. By abusing the physic's engine as much as possible..

[collectibles-menu]

Some people really get too comfortable not having a health bar... You'd think these issues would have been ironed out by now, at least. Surely, people must have gotten injured before because of this, if not died outright... [Colli sighs in disapproval.] Well, at least, I noticed you in time.

How have you been, though, unwanted flight aside? I've been gone for 9 months, and I've been told I missed quite a lot, so it's good to see a familiar face for a change.

[character-profiles]

How I've been? EEeugh.. I had been stuck in a constant loop of stress and worry for so long, I just COULD NOT catch a moment to breathe. A server exploded, Sys almost died, CMD almost died-

*He throws his hands up in the air, before grasping the sides of his head*

Hell, people started melting at one point! I watched Shady melt in my arms! And as if any of that wasn't enough, two developers get stuck in the game and initiate two different world-ending scenerios at the same time!

*He lets his arms go limp against his sides, exhaling a long, shaky breath*

Shady survived, by the way. No clue how, but he did.

[collectibles-menu]

Yes, I've been told about the two near-apocalypses. Not- Not the melting situation though, oh dear. It's crazy that none of this woke me up, but... I do appreciate the Collectibles Hall being left alone, if nothing else.

[Colli looks aside with a frown and shakes their head.]

I... wish I could have been here to help. Hopefully, I'll get to do more than be passively involved before vanishing for devs know how long...

[character-profiles]

*He sighs*

I know you feel like you could do more, but you really should know that you've been pretty helpful before in the past..

Devs know I wish I could've done more during the recent catastrophies..

But hey, at least you woke up at a time where we can just relax for once.

[collectibles-menu]

[Prof's words seem to work to reassure Colli, as her frown turns into a slight grin.]

Yes, I won't be entirely missing out on peacetime. Hopefully,

Oh- Speaking of, this festival is incredible! I found so many trinkets already!

[Colli excitedly pulls out a golden hook bookmark in the shape of a feather, with a deep pink-ish ruby hanging from the hook on a gold thread.]

Most items I bought are going straight into a display case, I hope, but this one would be so pretty for the registry... I just had to buy it for myself.

Oh, and you simply must try the fruit skewers! They grow fruits I hadn't seen anywhere in Exclamania here, it's making me wish I lived closer. Here, the stand is that way.

[On these words, Colli begins leading Prof between the stands, lights and banners of the festival, enjoying their time off to catch up.]

Oh this festival is great!! I've found so many items to bring back! It'll have been a bit of a business expense, I'll say that much, but making sure this event gets remembered for ages to come is more important than staying on budget, I believe.

I wonder if the organizers would let me bring back some decorations to put on display once it's over...
