Newest version of the Sembla Wheel, a way to present every labeled ability in Hypnofantasma.
I like to think of this one as a large, stained glass mural, possibly a couple dozen feet tall, embedded in the side of a large tower.
Sembla info under cut!
Sembla are not absolute boxes; they are the Kraizenian way of categorizing types of abilities. You are born with a unique ability, and then sorted into the closest defining Sembla. But you aren't born as a certain Sembla.
For example, if you're born with the ability to freeze things, mainly ice, that's your unique ability and just what you happened to be born able to do. But, you will be labeled as a Cold user for ease. But this does not mean the universe made you a /Cold/ user, rather, that's just a label.
This wheel also includes the 10 Dragon Gems, for their ten elements. Each species in the Ocean may have different label systems, but in the end, everything in this universe use the same system; physics-based, will-imposing psionics.
These two guides are hefty reads, but they have a lot of details, and may help one understand each element/Sembla.
been updating my hypnofantasma oc hoard, and holy cow i am having a blast with it? most of their art is from 2023-ish so i like seeing how much i've improved :)
i have like 16 left that i haven't updated / redesigned yet, so hopefully they'll be just as fun!

Plishtae is a turncoat for the group! All of them have their own fun li'l quirks, but all of their designs are I think better than they were when I first drew them. :)
... I'll probably reblog or something with the rest of them whenever I'm done ^-^
Let's say I want to introduce a friend to Kenopsia. What should I tell them , what resources should I lead them to, and what would be the most relevant heads up to give before going deeper?
Basic gist; a (CURRENTLY HEAVILY WIP) story that spans the entire lifespan of the universe, about a race of morphologically unique creatures called Kraizen who were corrupted by a universe-wide event called the Brandshock that turned them into the genocidal Vani, who only want to kill because they think living is suffering and they're doing everyone else a favor by prematurely ending their lives.
A very morally colorful story, neither black nor white nor even gray. if you like unique aliens with defined personalities, psionic abilities, and stuff that'll make you think, this is the series for you!
other stuff includes MORE aliens, werewolves, multiple story parts that are everything from planned games to songs to books (i'm writing the first one!), tons of main LGBTQ+ characters and kickass disabled characters, some lite but still wholeheartedly written speculative xenobiology, and tons of resources for fan content!
Will these Vani win, or will they be broken from their deadly trance...?
Heads up and warnings; the obvious big one, genocide. it's not based upon prejudice and discrimination at all, though it DOES step into the horrors of war and mass death. other big ones are gore/death, existentialism, the fact that the Vani are still varied sapient life forms (and treating them like animals or viewing them purely through black and white lenses does not fly with me), and whatever else is on the front page of the Toyhouse (linked below).
(ALSO, some heads up about ME, as a person- this series is still just my OC story and universe. I am not a corporation, and I still have boundaries. all i ask is that the boundaries i establish are respected and that i am not treated like a corporate machine)
Resources; you have the Toyhouse for the characters, the channel for the videos, and my Discord server(s) for better interaction and miscellaneous/universal resources (until i start making a certain video series)

Hello! I'm Monstrosity, or you can call me Juno! I'm storyteller who just wants to write about and draw some cool
A community for collaborative character creation and trading, worldbuilding and roleplay.
WELP, let's start off my species spamming with the one i have been thinking NONSTOP about. These guys are known as the Xonacia (zo-NAY-shuh), and they were an EXTREMELY powerful and deadly creature from ancient times. They disappeared and have left no traces for about five million years now, which is- hey-! around the time of the Brandshock! That's interesting...
[More info under cut]
The Xonacia were identified by their X-eyes and dual stingers, one on the tongue and one on the tail tip. They could likely possibly look vastly different, similar to Kraizen, but they were probably a lot more limited than them. We just aren't sure...
We do know that they hunted and ate Kraizen! They were a real threat. Those stingers could kill Kraizen very easily, but we aren't sure why yet; we just know that their favorite part to rip out was the heart, of all things, and would gloat about it. The stingers may have also had different functions as well, but that information has been lost to time.
Another thing we know is that, no matter what the sound was or what it meant, they ALWAYS started the names of individuals and places of theirs with an X. No name was left without an X to start it. If they found a language that didn't have an X shape/symbol/glyph, they'd force one in!
Species card (I've been making these for the different species):
They seemed to thrive in the void of space itself. So much so, their bodies reflect this; not only can they camouflage against the stars, but they can also ride solar waves to move between regions. How terrifying would it be to see this thing land on your spaceship...?
(If you have questions about any of the terms here, you can ask over at @hypnofantasma-asks-and-doodles !)
Like with all my species, these guys are open to make, just follow the rules! (And remember that these guys are supposedly extinct in the modern day!)
