Holly's coworkers are not getting posted to artfight because No Way am I polishing 4-5 designs within 24 hours (especially considering a couple of them have been giving me grief for Months) but everyone on tumblr can have a preview
For the past few months (and by that I mean I made 90% of this game in two weeks then stalled with the ending for several months) I've been making a short visual novel game called Labyrinthian. If you like grungy black-and-white hallways, paths that only go forward, and indie games that won't take more than 10 minutes of time, this game is for you.
You can play it on itch.io for a minimum of free! Link here:
One question... do you plan on making anyone else from warriors into a humanized design for limbus? I am curious
Yes! I have a ton of notes on how the workshops work + who is in them. Notably though I have not included every single character though because if I did I would be drawing humanized cats for one million years. Not to mention they would be classified as people within her canto; if I spent time drawing Every Single Cat I'd never get to any of her current Limbus coworkers.
The only notable ones I have so far are an old version of Holly and her siblings, + a WIP Squilf and Firestar buried somewhere in my files. I can't find the other two, so here's the quick sketch of the Po3 trio as older teenagers a few years before Holly ditched (none of them have their badges because they're too young to formally be fixers. Their haircuts get better as they get older. Sort of...):
I'll draw the other two's modern-day designs + other important characters eventually. Right now I am trying to figure out a concrete line of events for her hypothetical canto (they are Not going to be 1:1 with warrior cats. Her canto's design is more of a thematic similarity route akin to C1, C7, and C9)
EYE: Thunder Workshop fixers/those brought up by the office have similar eye augmentations, allowing for one to have perfect vision in any light level, visualize heat maps and electromagnetic fields, see into the ultraviolet spectrum, and glow for purposes of intimidation. They come in a variety of colors, but most opt for green or blue out of respect for the office's most prolific fixers. There is a myth that Thunder Workshop fixers can only see you when you're moving. This is not true.
GAUNTLETS: Thunder's signature weapon, ironically, manufactured by Shadow Workshop (an exclusivity deal, brought upon by a scuffle generations ago) Functions like a second skin, allowing the user to slash through most materials, to block most weapons with ease, and to cling to/climb nearly any surface.
BADGE: The logo of Thunder Workshop, worn by its fixers. Without the give-and-take between the four workshops, none of them would be known for their products or fixer work at all. It's a mystery to most why the workshops, known as the "Four Trees" of District 4, haven't combined under a singular name where they'd doubtlessly be four times as prolific. Unfortunately, the reasoning is known only to the trees themselves.
CLOTHES: Thunder Workshop's own speciality, and a point of pride. Good quality cloth is tough to come by, and to produce it without relying on tailors is nothing short of miraculous. How it's produced is a mystery even to most of the fixers within the workshop, but its efficacy speaks for itself. Each member has their own embroidery, typically related to their moniker. While Hollyleaf is depicted wearing just a barong,, Thunder workshop fixers typically add as alampay around the shoulders to protect their necks (or, for more formal events, may opt for a similarly woven baro't saya).
WEAPON: Most Thunder fixers have no need for a secondary weapon. Their gauntlets are plenty effective in rending everything apart. However, stripped of her gauntlets upon joining Limbus Company, Holly instead relies on something a bit more sentimental…
Ego for [these] [two] sets of abnormalities; once again, originally for @mombodryoshu's abnovember
* Keep in mind, Manager, that some fates in the city are far more immutable than death. Research has found the EGO extracted from Ligeia to be unable to revert an agent's transformation (such as those preformed by F-02-44, O-04-66, D-03-109, and T-03-46, to name a few), save them from sacrificial work (T-09-85, O-01-15, O-03-89) nor to return them from a fracture in reality (such as, if they are to activate D-09-104). Use discretion.
Bonus Hannah without the weapon + ego gift covering her up. I wish I made the suit itself a bit fancier (looks really plain for an Aleph, but I suppose so does Da Capo) but the curtain gown-train is fun regardless. Maybe I'll add a bit more flourish when I'm less strapped for time.
do the abnos mean anything like do they have stories?
I haven't written out proper logs for them (sort of. A couple of them have snippets. Once I post the last 2 tonight I can put to vote which one gets finished if that interests people) but they do have inspirations!
Listen and Tell: "Arrhythmia" by Hailey Leithauser. This one is not super deep; I wanted an abno that deals with fatalism (notably not what the poem is about; it's moreso an inverse of it) + an introduction to justice/repression without allowing you to spam it for training. It should still be tough to get, after all.
Resurrection Biology: The Magdeburg unicorn, piltdown man and the archaeoraptor---weird configurations of fossils, but specifically those designed to be hoaxes for the purpose of exploitation/proving themselves right (see: name in reference to the recent "resurrection of dire wolves" hoax).
Tyger in Lambskin: "The Tyger" and "The Lamb" both by William Blake (namely the former), but its breaching mechanic of running + provoking bad results of everything it passes in hopes of breaching them is specifically referencing "The Tiger" by Nael, age 6. This one is a little on-the-nose but its breaching form ended up being one of my favorites, even with the old art.
A few abnormalities originally made for @mombodryoshu's abnovember. But alas it is June of the next year and they were never posted. So here they are now with a bit of polish
I think some of the Ruina room sprays are being very generous with making the floors smell nice. With love I know for a fact that the floor of language smells like cigarette smoke and very little else
