hellohello!

i'm ivy, any pronouns. this is mainly a blog about animal jam classic. i may be inactive or suddenly extremely active as my interest in this game comes and goes.

this is also a very OC heavy blog! most of what i post here is about my ocs and their lore.

i also have another account dedicated to pixel cat's end!

im at a bit of a brainstorming crossroad right now

i want jamaa in-lore to be a network of Indigenous people. each location on the ingame map is a union of various tribes united by a similar method of government. and overall, each of these unions are strung together by Jamaa Township, a sort of more..... communal, un-inhabited area where Indigenous tribes come to trade and meet up.

the issue that im scratching my head about though is the specifics. do i make fictional tribes? can i avoid just straight up ripping off irl people's culture if i do that?

if i do real existing native tribes, would it feel natural? would it be too upsetting for what i want to write?

if anybody has any tips or input please let me know lol. not sure how to move foreward here

a little bg inspired by the ajc artstyle. im very fond of this

ajhq should release the cave floor texture + standard green grass texture as nonmember floors in my humble opinion

made a quick drawup for my musings of phantom reproduction ! ill elaborate on stuff more beneath the cut

phantoms reproduce asexually and house their eggs into phantom pods, usually stored in hives protected by phantom webs; all made up of phantom mucus. the first real stage of phantom development stems from the proto-phantom, which slowly develops limbs into your standard phantom.

it's possible for a phantom to propagate proto-phantoms with a lost limb. this cannot be done with shedded tentacles, only healthy and newer ones. these propagated phantoms will develop normally and are still standard phantoms, but will generally be weaker and a little smaller. a propagized phantom cannot propagate themselves, but can lay eggs.

it's important to know that standard phantoms will always be black, have six tentacles, and have a glossy sheen that is typically a shade of purple. they also have an aura (the thing u see during adventuring that decides whether or not they're aggro)

synthetic phantom production is the processing of mashing together or using decomposed standard phantom remains to create "drone" phantoms. these phantoms typically are "programmed" to do one job or an action (examples being pedaling phantom fans or blocking off waterways) and will do that until they die or wear down enough to stop working.

after a standard phantom dies, it's corpse will either be grinded into a pulpy mess or allowed to decompose naturally. then, it will slowly develop into a synthetic proto-phantom.

a synthetic proto-phantom can develop further into a phantom fish, phantom goop, phantom coral, phantom watcher, and potentially more. however, if treated with a specific balance of green and purple phantom mucous, it can develop into synthetica. these are weaker phantoms that have more limbs, variation in size, eyes, colors, and mucous color. synthetica do not have auras and are much more aggressive than standard phantoms.

synthetica also may be mashed up into phantom remains to create strange, more experimental, and far more unstable synthetica. some of these are called pet or toy phantoms, which have no prey drive or aggression.

synthetic phantoms are said to be non-sentient; whether this is true or not is up for debate.

and now. guy who sucks

lore is, once again, under the cut!

his name is wise rainyscholar.

nobody really knows, even within the phantom sphere, of how he got such a large position within the phantom monarchy! all of the higher ranked phantoms are anxiously tight lipped, and he just smiles unnervingly when asked.

what IS known, though, is that wise is wanted across jamaa for murdering multiple of sir gillbert's lieutenants by picking them off from their groups, alongside a few miscellaneous rabbits who worked under Peck. wise is thought of to be an assassin, and is extremely feared by Jamaa due to his charisma and ability to blend into crowds as a fellow rabbit. he's said, by jamaa township newsrooms, to be a phantom extremist vying for the destruction of modern society and phantom reconstruction.

he's impressively large for his species and moves with an unusual gait due to his overgrown, sharp claws. most of the diamond shaped scars on his back are from boomseeds.

my son ... my indoctrinated son

lore beneath the cut

so this is victory, full name Victory Slyrose. he was surrendered to jamaa's pillow room (a bar that funds their upstairs communal foster home) when he was young. this, and the fact that he was lower class as a seal, gave him extremely fragile self esteem that he guarded with his life.

victory hopped to and from various foster homes. none of them were good fits, partially because victor's guarded volatility. along the way, victor met a strange rabbit. he called himself Wise, and offered him a place to belong, warm food, and a purpose. victory could not resist and was radicalized by both wise -- a double agent for the phantoms -- and the pro-phantom propaganda that phantoms pump out.

his main job in the agency is spreading that propaganda across jamaa, spreading infection wherever he can, and doing wise's dirty work. basically odd jobs nobody else wants to do. i don't think he's involved with actually inducting people because he's an angry teenager, but the phantom monarchy uses him as a token, sort of as positive evidence why they're doing the things that they do. he's their little poster child!

also if you see my freak ass waddling around ajc as him. No you didn't. <3
