Lilithmon’s Wicked Beauty Glamour Spell

“It confounds its opponents with its bewitchingly lovely appearance and dark beauty.”

A glamour spell to appear beautiful, mysterious, dark and captivating.

You Will Need:

💜 Eyeliner of Choice 💜 Purple Candles 💜 Black Candles 💜 Purple or Dark Eye Shadow 💜 Rose Quartz 💜 Garnet 💜 Mirror 💜 Piece of Chocolate (preferably dark chocolate)

Steps:

💜 Get your items together in front of the mirror you will be working with. Light you candles. You may use whatever number you desire just try to have at least one of each of the two colors. Be sure to keep them out of the way of where you will be working and possibly leaning forward to prevent burns and other undesirable accidents.

💜 Place your rose quartz and garnet near your candles to further fill the room with the aura of beauty, seduction and secret darkness

💜 Do your eye make using your eyeliner and eye shadow as you desire. Personally, I would recommend bold eye liner for this glamour and smokey eyes but do what feels right for you and works with your eye/face shape. As you do your make up visualize mysterious, beautiful captivating eyes wearing the make up you are applying. How their gaze draws others in and captures their attention. How they a beautiful but have an edge of mystery and almost danger to them, keeping others from getting too close. Keep this image in your mind as you finish up your eye make up.

💜 Once satisfied with your eye make up, while staring at yourself in the mirror pick up your piece of dark chocolate

💜 “Like eyes of a serpent in the night, I am lovely and charming but with a bit of a bite. Those who see me are struck by my beauty, but they dare not touch for they feel my radiated might. Like chocolate dark and bitter, I am beautiful, lovely and wicked.”

💜 Eat the piece of dark chocolate after saying this as a way to close the spell and give yourself an extra boost of seduction and energy for the spell. Continue on with your routine and know that you are wickedly beautiful

“Ocean Love” Binding Spell (Marin Angemon Inspired)

“Although it fundamentally dislikes combat, its Special Move "Ocean Love" makes all of its opponents lose their fighting spirit, resulting in it achieving victory.”

A spell to remove hostility from another or a group, that they are using to cause harm to themselves or others.

You Will Need:

A clam shell

Taglock or Name of person(s)

Dried Chamomile

Himalayan Pink Salt or Sea Salt

Black Candle

Sewing Needle or Pin

Steps:

Light your candle at the beginning of your spell.

Take your taglock or the name(s) on a small strip of paper and put it inside of the clam shell. 

“Your spite and anger is a heavy weight, so now I bind you so harm you cannot initiate.” Then repeat “I bind you” 3 times.

Sprinkle the salt and chamomile over the top of the taglock in the shell as you say this.

Blow out your candle and use the wax to pour over the clam shell to seal the binding

Once the wax has dried take your needle and carve an upside down heart onto it. “I remove your hostility and bind it away.”

Keep clam shell somewhere open and bright to help keep the hostility sealed up in it.

To break the binding: break the wax seal on the seashell or remove it and state “I break this binding” 3 times.

Notes: This is a binding spell for when a person (or persons) is hostile and has become a threat to you, to others or themselves. This spell is not meant to change a person’s personality or who they are, it is to prevent them from causing harm. This spell is not a “cure all” for all aggression issues or anger issues.

Everyone take a lemon slice and squeeze the juice into their cup and say “88 call, 88 call, we stand together against it all. In thick and thin, joy and loss, we will stand side by side, together through it all.” 

Take a spoonful of honey everyone and stir it into your tea clockwise. “We will communicate better, we will work as a team, just like a hive of honeybees.”

Another Infodump: RANDOMAGOS

Introduction

What are Randomagos?

Basically this is a thing similar to pokemon fan-regions but just not officially linked to pokemon. Beside the themes/aesthetic I went out of my way to change a lot of the core mechanics (The typing system is completely different, the battle system -if I were to make it an actual game- wouldn't be turn based, eggs works differently, etc). There also a bit of digimon inspo in these but it's not as obvious.

The name isn't set in stone yet, I've also consigered Monstrueuf monster + oeuf (egg) also a pun on monstrueux (monstruous) and Yistomons яйцо (egg) +monster. The name Randomago (and by extent the alt name Eggorythms Egg + Algorythm) hint at randomness mechanic (related to breeding)

note: I couldn't fit all the images so some evo lines are missing!

How creature Typing works

Typing is split into 2: Alignments and Will

Alignments has 3 main type that work like rock paper scissor and a bonus 4th type that is weak to all three others. Wills give an additional boots. The themes of the Wills aren't as clear as pokemon type would be but that's kinda the point since I didn't want them to be similar.

Design notes

I wanted the design to have a semi-strict rule set for design so that they could easily be all identified as being part of the same project and not immediately get seen as outright fakemons.

Each creature has their dedicated egg design. Egg would do more than just evolve into beasties, they can also be fed to already hatched critters to make them evolve or used in crafting armors.

The egg theme is maintained in the first evo stage with critters keeping part of their shell as part of their design

There much less restriction with the final stage evos (honestly being forced to use a cracked eggshell on the baby design is hard sometimes). Tho I try to avoid any Gardevoir/Lopunny situations by not making any design that might look "too humanoid" XD

Ive's also considered a temporary fusion-form that only some creatures would have? (by temporary I mean kinda the same way digivolutions or mega evolutions are temporary it would only last a set time per battle or per day)

Battling and Armors

As mentioned at the start, if I were to make an actual battle system it wouldn't be turn-based. Creature would still have specific moves but it would be more like in Kingdom hearts with things being in real time with keybinded move-set. To make it a bit more varied on top of the typing and move-set choices there would be optional armors to equip

Breeding

Still kind of up in the air right now but I wanted to potentially have it that when you breed two creature you wouldn't get one that match the parents unless both parents are the same, instead eggs would be random under the shared alignments (creatures need to be in the same alignment group to breed)

Designs

NPCs

I have these two "trainers": Daren and Daria, Twins (probably non-binary each leaning to a different side of things a tiny bit) I have some potential plot ideas for how they end up being the trainers but Im still a bit ??? about it. (they are Prof Braverly's younger siblings)

the egg-shaped device around their neck is kinda like both a pokedeck, pokeball and digivice at the same time. IT STILL DONT HAVE A NAME FOR IT It's an "EgsNav". It's used to store critters as well as give info about scanned creatures. To capture creatures and transfer them into the EgsNav the trainer needs to use a field-trap (design not yet drawn).

I now also have 3 Professors/teachers that are also champions/representative of each of the 3 alignments

Linear Evolution Lines

Branching Evolution Lines

Merging Evolution Line

[professorrigentiscervi]

And one more for today. Fusion of a couple creatures and some plant bits. Maybe not a final design but I think it’s nice.
