Our current shopkeeper (mod) is @pkscarlet, please be patient they're still inexperienced! (also check out what i consider to be my ref below the cut, or don't)
Hey, I know I haven't been the most active person in the EPPRBCU as of late, but I'm here to announce that I'll take a hiatus, probably for the rest of September. Reason being that I'll be traveling and can't guarantee that I have the internet to access [tumblr] (or the Discord for that matter). So, take care and don't blow up the sun again, alright?

Important notice! The trees in this family are so large (even split by genus) that they are very likely to be unreadable on tumblr. That's why I have a website, in which you can find the images in full resolution by opening them in a new tab and zooming. Find them here. More info below the cut.
Okay, this tree took a while. There were 130+ blogs to catalog, and that was monumentally slow to do. I hope it doesn't take this long for the next tree. Also- ignore my paltry web design skills. I've attempted to input a more dyslexic friendly font option (I'm not dyslexic myself, if anyone with dyslexia wants to inform me if it is better, that would be great), but I'm honestly not that great at HTML. If any JQuery wizards want to help with a few things, I would owe my endless gratitude.
What's next?
After this big tree, I need some quick projects. I'll most likely update Alphidae, then move to the Potatoes or Snoms- haven't decided yet.
Some notes:
Although there have been some questionable things acted out in this family, I do think it has crafted some pretty interesting ideas. @/the-false-sun and @/the-dungeon-core are some of my favorites.
A quick description of the genera:
Systema - Blogs that emulate part of the game system.
Spectaculum - Roleplay blogs contained within the system, usually as some sort of character.
Actus - Roleplay blogs that fit into the box of a conventional video game NPC, or acting as players within the game.
Faventia - The fandom focused blogs of the EPPRBCU.
Moderatus - Blogs emulating the moderators, tech support, and developers of the game.
Lastly, if any of the blogs present think they deserve a reclassification or have a suggestion to improve this, do not hesitate to notify me.
There's a tension here that's really interesting to observe. The OP is almost a call to action for gimmick blogs, inviting attention despite the contradiction. It comes across as almost tsundere, doesn't it?
The call is answered by the perfect gimmick blog, calling out the contradiction by way of simple disagreement. The response is teasing and even domineering in the way it recontextualizes the entire post. It is the punchline, the center of attention, but wouldn't exist without the original setup.
While it seems like this post could be seen as a negative interaction, I think it's actually quite cute. It shows the kind of playful back and forth that could occur between two flirty girls.
12x plush collar delivery, differing according to animal requests!

Excellent, thank you!
*sends a letter of "Hi, your collar order came in, come and pick it up!" to @luv-vivi, @unexpectedly-wizardposting, @ignisuada, @the-mind-den and @epprbcu-shipping*
Actually, while I have you here, you sent me two seperate requests, so may I ask how many collars you actually wanted? I ordered enough to cover all bases, but I want to be sure.

@tinkermenu returns, completely out of breath, about 30 minutes later, carrying no visible money pouch, but a strange device that looks suspiciously like a gun.
Ah, welcome back! ...What a curious contraption...?
A word of advice though, depending on whether you want to pay someone or hurt someone, aim better or worse. Most people don't take too kindly on being hurt by high velocity money. Anyways,
(We were just informed that Loading Tips's mom forced her to delete all her socials. Which included Discord and Tumblr. Sadly we no longer have contact with her anymore because of this, and she is no longer capable of being in the EPPRBCU. We will miss her a ton :[ )

(Tinker scrambles in the door, practically bounding with energy. Despite this, their hair is tangled and messy, and they are out of breath.)
I heard you have a gender stone. How can I get my hands on it?
...Ah, right! I did acquire a Stone of Switching Gender a while back. I'm surprised word spread, if I'm honest. I've just the one, but I'd be willing to part from it for, say, 20 gp?

I just gotta wait for my switch to charge, it's been hidden away while I was moving. I'm only good with the buckets and the Flingza, though. But I have spirit! That counts for something, right?
