🪐The Starceiver has found the newest Zodiac, Xarcadder! It shoots pixelated smoke out its cannons and plays games on itself to play Chiptune Drums sounds. How do you know what will happen down there if you've never been? You always monkey around by thinking about everything and never doing. <PREV : NEXT>

🪐The Starceiver has found the newest Zodiac, Froosjoose! Its long tail wraps around and squeezes its bottle to play Bottle Blow sounds. How can I be sure the Zodiacs aren't an iron hand in a velvet glove...? <PREV : NEXT>

🪐The Starceiver has found the newest Zodiac, Primixermind! Its mouth releases wind and audio it absorbs from nearby Roxsztars to play Transition SFX + Remixed Sounds of Others. I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders... <PREV : NEXT>

LOG Z-05 : I could never have predicted what just happened. Before long into my chat with Xarcadder, a new presence with four elements arrived! The Starceiver wasn't built to receive too much energy at once, so I switched the connection to only reach Primixermind. It wouldn't reveal much to me other than its powers. I voiced my concerns about the Zodiacs' destructive potential, since I couldn't do it with Xarcadder in time, and it agreed like it somehow already knew. It then moved itself and Xarcadder away to have a discussion. I eavesdropped as Primixermind forbade Xarcadder from trying to meet my kind in person, but I could tell it wasn't convincing enough. It even tried using MY VOICE as evidence, but its ability to alter sounds to its liking seemed to not work in its favor. They eventually parted ways, leaving me to ponder it all. It's too soon to tell if my request to Artzicraft was effective, and what happened here means I need to request even more to make up for it. So much for that problem being solved...

Taking place in Djreenzeel's dream, it's joined by 50 Ore-based monsters created by fans, easily making this my largest composition ever! While my content is on Tumblr from now on, I will always hold dear my years of being a YouTuber and all the support I've had along the way.

I’ve been curious about this for a while, and btw, longtime fan of yours. ^^

Now, for the question: What does the Thief Element represent…? Like I’m curious if it’s just thievery and trickery at face value or if it represents something more.

That, and what do the others think of Dawshnozz?

~ ⚛️

A strategy I have when making elements is to logically connect all kinds of things and themes to each element, so I don't run out of ideas when using them. As many representations for Thief I can think of are thievery, mischief, espionage, crime, money and other riches like jewelry, traps and prisons, police and detectives, masks and eyewear, theatre, full moons, werewolves, nightclubs, and graffiti. Related colors are indigo, black, purple, and yellow.

The others aren't too bothered by Dawshnozz's antics and still appreciate it as a friend. While valuables are nice, it swindles for the love of the game. It respects and calls it quits when it gets caught in the act.

This entire concept was so much fun to build, and I am in love with how everything turned out. An awesome beginning for my experimental ideas. Monstronomicon

Chapter 📀1: Versus Vector: Battlegrounds

[ Versus Central ]

The Versus Dimension was formed by crystals that lost their elements, resulting in a planet covered in plain, stony hills. The missing elements caused the land to glitch as it formed, creating rectangular prisms that towered from the ground and a large fractured star in the sky. Some glitches became the first five lifeforms here known as Versztars, which have various appearances but often look like fusions of different creatures. They learn about their glitch powers that can alter the stony landscape into whatever they want at the cost of energy. The Versztars became friends and wanted to use their powers to create a nice space to live, but they all disagreed about what it should have.

After arguing, they decided to each make a plan of their own and get together to see whose is best. When they started reviewing their plans, they found they actually wanted multiple parts of each other's plans in the final product. Therefore, they incorporated many of their ideas, including turning the rectangular towers into housing units, into one giant city that was named Versus Central due to the competition that created it. They didn't have enough energy to change most of the land, so they decided to leave it for future ideas, allowing natural glitching to form slightly different landscapes.

As they lived in Versus Central, the Versztars found they were maturing into more stabilized forms. Using this, one of them learned how to alter themselves to asexually create new life, so they all reproduced to populate the city. To prevent chaos from their offspring's glitch powers, they instilled a culture of teamwork and friendly competition, and found their kind had a remarkable ability to compromise with each other. Eventually, the population grew enough to require groups of mayors that are routinely cycled to regulate the landscape's usage. There are now a few hundred Versztars all living in present day Versus Central.

[ Versus Vector ]

Retropodd is a current day Versztar who lives with his mother Sonyapodd. Just like her, Retropodd's head had two round disks that didn't behave in any special way. Retropodd liked exploring as a child, and Sonyapodd would often have to find him wherever he ended up. One day, it learned about a camping trip to one of the planet's outer habitats: a sandy beach with a beautiful shoreline. He was enamored and was excited to go there with its mother. There was a rule to not alter anything outside of Versus Central, but the camping group enjoyed their time regardless.

The group set up tents to sleep in as Retropodd wandered across the shoreline. Sonyapodd found it again and decided to set their tent at that spot. Little did they know, their tent was on top of a buried portal to Storm Summit in the Roxsztar Dimension. As they lived and slept, the musical energy from that Dimension seeped into their minds. Retropodd's more glitchy form channeled it in a way that gained him the power to play any sound it could imagine. Retropodd quickly discovered his love for music after the trip, even though music was a very rare interest in Versztars.

As he grew up, he wanted to create his own music studio. He pitched the idea to the mayors who approved because of the lack of musical projects. In order to keep it however, he had to prove other Versztars would enjoy it as well. And so, it used his powers to create his studio called Versus Vector near the city's edge to prevent noise pollution. When he started to compose though, he couldn't think of what his first song should be. He wanted it to be perfect but had too many ideas. His song deadline approached as it cycled through ideas and scrambled for inspiration.

[ Battlegrounds ]

Desperate for an solution, Retropodd visited the spot on the shore where it first started liking music. He watched the shore until he started hearing strange sounds from under the sand. It dug down and discovered the portal he had slept over. It cautiously stepped through onto a sandy shore in Storm Summit. Strangely, his music powers couldn't work quite right in this realm, and he couldn't zap around anymore. He explored until he encountered Thrundurr, Vansambul, and Cybirx. Terrified by these bizarre beasts, it fled away and hid, but they soon found and spoke to him. Despite how bewildered it was by this place and these creatures, he noticed how they seemed friendly and could somehow talk. So they began talking and learning about each other and their home Dimensions.

After learning about their shared love for music, Retropodd asked for help on its song for Versus Vector. When they eagerly agreed, they followed him back to the Versus Dimension, boosting their abilities in a way that mirrored Retropodd's subdued abilities in the Roxsztar Dimension. Their specific sounds and ideas provided structure that helped Retropodd develop the song. They needed more musicians though, so the Roxsztars suggested including Willokke, Dulshiwwe, and Junguhzuh for a good thematic contrast. They inclusion helped them all complete and perform the song called Battlegrounds. Its release gained an initial interest in both Dimensions for its quality and inclusion of unfamiliar yet skilled creatures. It even introduced some Versztars to music for the first time, marking the beginning of Versus Vector and its songs featuring extradimensional talents.

To anyone who can answer: What exactly are the rings around the Alien Worlds?

I thought it would be cool to have planetary rings for each Alien World. They're just like in real life but shinier and made of mostly Alien components. Their other elemental components contribute to their different colors.
