Rift, Sal, or Faust ✧ he/any ✧ coder + artist

GET RIFTLORE'D

Howdy, call me Rift, Sal, or Faust! I'm a genderfluid digital illustrator and web developer; my preferred pronouns shift, so any is fine but he/him is a safe bet if you want specifics.

I reblog lots of salamander photos because they're my favorite animal, some fandom reblogs, and sometimes I post my OC or fandom artworks too.

Know that I don't do discourse posting, and all reblog bait comes to my dashboard to die. Otherwise we just chill and vibe :]

My main tags:

#rift artwork - My artwork tag!

#rift rambles - All of my text posts. Art posts with written info/descriptions may also have this tag.

#rb - Mute this tag if you want to ignore everything I reblog.

I talk at length and thus make many long posts, tagged accordingly with #long post. Possible triggers are tagged alone, ex. #blood instead of #blood tw, for ease of filtering.

Fandom specific and miscellaneous stuff below the cut!

My fandom tags:

#rift posts limbus company - For Limbus Company and general Project Moon stuff. Includes original posts and reblogs! Subtags are #faustposting for Faust and #KoDRodyaSolosForever for Knight of Despair Rodion. I always tag spoilers as #canto 0 spoilers (Canto/Intervallo-specific) or #limbus company spoilers (general).

P.S.: If you play Limbus Company, I'd love some friends! Here's my ID card (my friend code is Y207747242):

There was a post on twitter talking about how people draw Faust and I desided to take a stab at it

Have a tired lady <3

More people should get into poly shipping. Both because polyamory is awesome and because it's really fun to make complicated ass diagrams

Hello Limbus Company OC community, I'm cooking up something for you all (it's a Toyhou.se character profile code!)

Here's a preview of the first tab for now, I'll make a new post when it's all finished :3

For some advance details: it'll be available for free!! (I cannot charge for it since I'm using some official assets and some referenced code.) Given how certain elements work it will require TH premium -- but I will try and make a non-premium version if I can. And it is sadly not mobile friendly, I only had the braincells to figure out one layout set for now, but maybe in the future!

There will be a tab for basic info, backstory, as many Identity cards + their corresponding Skills as you can think of, and slotted EGOs. I wanted to make something with lots of stuff to use for my own LCB OCs :]

Ty to everyone who keeps finding this post and liking it, it reminds me every time that I need to keep chipping away at this to finish it x'D I promise I'm still working on getting it done!!

Been seeing this tierlist/template floating around the tag so here's my list!

And some notes:

I LOVE and CHERISH all the Sinners so to be clear this is like forcing me to pick a least favorite child. How dare you. I do still really really like Hong Lu!! He's just endeared himself to me less long-term. I think him, Ryoushuu, Meursault, and Sinclair all kind of share that spot.

Ishmael's Canto genuinely changed my outlook on life and it made me cry multiple times. Yi Sang's Canto is only my least favorite because I spent 50% of it confused lol (I can read I swear, the themes just went over my head for the most part at the time)

Spring Cultivation made me laugh so hard. Runner-up is Murder on the WARP Express though for suuuure

My favorite side character changes frequently but right now it's Alyssa. Honorable mentions to Marton, Hohenheim, Xichun, Yuri, and Effie! Love y'all. Dishonorable mention to Demian:

Don Sr.'s boss fight is the only one that I still dread and never ever want to redo again. If I had to pick a fight that was super boring and unfun but not nearly as rage-quit-difficult, it'd be Jia Mu's. Such a flat end to an otherwise solid Canto.

Roach Emperor was an absolutely fantastic fight, 10/10 no notes; Matthias was "wait for the NPCs to finally kill him" simulator. Canto 9 had quite the variety, clearly!

Binah/Garion has always been my favorite PM design across all the games so she can go here <3 Honorable mention to Dante!! I love their design it's so good

I knooow we don't know Faust's full story yet but I have a strong feeling I will like it. Honorable mention goes to Gregor here.

My opinion on Heathcliff has definitely changed the most out of all the Sinners. He's now my second-favorite of the bunch! But for other characters, I did Not care for Hohenheim at all originally and now I like him quite a lot. Also my friend's impression of him is the best thing ever

I uhm. I uh. Faust. Yes yes. You understand (she is everything to me and she is so me and I am so her fr fr)
