Have you considered doing commissions? Just wondering!
Oh woah, commissions… I did, once upon a time, have some commission stuff open on some other website, but that’s been two years or something? I -have- been pondering opening them again, but I’ve sorta failed to start anything proper. Mainly because I have no idea about pricing and such, cuz I really don’t know what people would find my art to be worth.
I’m having some difficulty with Inktober, but I promise I’m still drawing! It’s just uh... drawing seven characters on one canvas is taking a bit longer than I expected.
Luckily I’d wanted it to count for multiple days anyway... I hope to post it tomorrow!
Heyy Anon, thank you for the ask. I’m really sorry for not responding to it for several decades, but I wanted to doodle something for it and have been in a straight up dump when it comes to art. After weeks I’ve given up on trying that and take things as they come, but I did wanna give you a fact because you sent the ask.
I’ll go for Zzyot with this. Despite appearances he is rather good with kids! OR, rather, he’s good with the kids of people he likes. Other kids he really doesn’t want to deal with, because mostly they don’t appear to like him much. He’s always too rough when it comes to handling them, but he can’t help that really.
🔪 and 💪 for Fizz please and ☘ and 🖌 (that's supposed to be the palette ^-^) for Bhazz?
Ohh, certainly! Thank you for the ask <3 Answers are under the cut!
Fizz:
🔪 - (For thieves) Do they use their skills for crime? If so, how did they get into the criminal lifestyle?
- Well, Fizz might be a Thief when it comes to what his OOC Class is (and I suppose that he’s a Thief ICly as well) but that doesn’t mean he’s a thief! Sure he’s stolen a few things on a rare occasion, some intended and some not intended, but to call it a criminal lifestyle would be a -bit- too much. So the answer to the first question is ‘No’, and the other question doesn’t particularly apply!
💪 - What is the source of their personal strength?
- If you’d ask him this in person he’d say something about his sick abs or biceps or something, but… to be truthful Fizz is easily depressed. He wouldn’t show this to anybody but the people he’s closest with, of course. That what keeps him going are his friends and the people he has left, because he knows that if he fails they are there to pick him up. Not that long ago Fizz had nobody, but it didn’t take long for his emotional floundering about to come to an end because of people he met.
Bhazz:
☘ - Do they have any lucky charms/items of significance?
- Bhazz takes good care to properly keep any pictures of his family and friends around. He doesn’t particularly have any items that hold specific value to him, though he tries to keep his room in the exact condition it’s always been in. It… reminds him of how things used to be, but he tries to not be too emotional about that.
🎨 - Are they artistically inclined?
- No, not at all. There’s just no way around it, Bhazz doesn’t have and never had a single artistic bone in his body. While he does have the patience he simply lacks the imagination ^^;

Fizz
👊 - Describe their fighting style!
Ferocious and straightforward, though he has been known to use ‘tactics’ of some sort. He can plan and such, just often he doesn’t really do it. Wolfboy prefers to fight using his fists and claws over anything he can use to fight with, and he’s certainly not above biting and using anything at his disposal to catch someone off guard. He rarely fights ‘for real’ though, preferring to fight for fun. Scrapping and brawling and the like!
❄ - What kind of weather do they prefer, and why?
He prefers rain, themore the better. If he’s not hiding under a pile of blankets during it, being cozy because listening to the sound of rain falling is amazing and really helps him relax, he’s running around outside.
Though he also prefers sunny weather, because that gives him a reason to run around coatless and show off some.
But I guess he also really like snow, cuz SNOWBALL FIGHTS and ROLLING AROUND IN SHOW and MAKING SNOWSURAS.
So I guess he doesn’t really prefer any kind of weather. It’s all amazing and awesome to him.
🍸 - How would they celebrate a major event? (birthday, anniversary, etc)
Oh he’d go completely out of control with preparing stuff. A party is a reason to have friends over, and he really really really does like his friends! Any way he can invite some over will be utilized to the fullest to get more people close to him, because after all a party isn’t a party without friends!
⚔ - Is there a significance to the weapons they wield? Do they have names?
No, there’s not. He gave his sister the idea (she’s pretty smart, see) to create elemental gauntlets for him, which is an idea -he- got out of a dream in which he shot lightning from his hands. What she came up with wasn’t really what he had anticipated or expected, but it was awesome anyway!
They don’t really have names either, though Fizz calls his arms ‘left’ and ‘right’ sometimes.
Zzyot
👊 - Describe their fighting style!
He fights in the most brutal way possible, and is extremely straightforward. While preferring to use his claws, teeth, tail, and generally everything, he will also use everything he has at his disposal to get the one he’s fighting on the ground and no longer moving.
Depending on the sort of fight, however, this might change. If he’s actually fighting for survival he’ll continue beating what’s in front of him until it’s actually no longer alive (because these situations usually entail that he’s extremely angry) and isn’t above trying to literally tear things off.
But of course there’s also the fighting for fun. Mostly the fun of others, true, but still. In these situations he doesn’t punch or actively harm, but rather just deflects and weathers hits where he can. Taking a hold of fists and pushing them aside gently and such.
❄ - What kind of weather do they prefer, and why?
Crocoboy prefers warm, humid weather. Not extremely hot, but just sunny and on the warm side is perfect for him. With weather like this he can often be found sleeping somewhere in the sun, sprawled out on whatever surface he can find. He does prefer to sleep on sand however. He prefers to sleep on a beach even more, because that means he can go and swim whenever he wants to.
🍸 - How would they celebrate a major event? (birthday, anniversary, etc)
I don’t think he really would, in any situation. He hates attention and being stared at, no matter what it is for, and would most likely just invite one or two people to talk with for a little before all going on their merry way again.
⚔ - Is there a significance to the weapons they wield? Do they have names?
While not particularly wielding any weapons most of the time, he -does- have one weapon he uses occasionally. Or rather, a weapon he used back when he still had a ‘job’ in the Inquest (the Megakrewe think he’s dead and he’d rather keep it that way). In this case this is a giant greatsaw he customized himself. It’s simply too big and heavy for anybody else to wield, but he manages just fine. Now he just keeps it around, maintaining and improving the thing for when it’s needed again.
Bhazz
👊 - Describe their fighting style!
If he can help it, Bhazz doesn’t fight. He’s a pacifist if there ever was one (though for some reason he thinks sparring and training is fine), but of course he can’t avoid every combat. Whenever he -does- have to fight he assumes the role of wall, taking and blocking hits and waiting for the other to tire out and surrender.
Whenever he goes on the offensive it’s with grapples and holds, no punching or other sudden and violent movements.
❄ - What kind of weather do they prefer, and why?
There isn’t really a sort of weather he prefers, honestly. Though, if he can help it he would like it to stay dry and on the warm side, because rain makes him somewhat sullen and dreary. Not too much, but enough for him to start thinking on how things were before the Inquest turned him into what they turned him into.
🍸 - How would they celebrate a major event? (birthday, anniversary, etc)
He’d celebrate it with his family! Despite the fact that he was changed beyond being classified as ‘Asura’ in some cases, his family never stopped loving him. Any celebration or occasion to come together is taken with both hands, and the entire day is usually spent at his family’s side. Sometimes they just enjoy eachother’s company, sometimes they play boardgames or do physical games like wrestling and anything you can think of, but they -always- enjoy the time to the fullest.
⚔ - Is there a significance to the weapons they wield? Do they have names?
His weapons don’t have names, and they don’t really have any significance whatsoever. It takes a lot for him to pull out his weapons, and if at all possible he avoids it however hard he has to avoid it to make sure it doesn’t happen. The one tool for combat he -does- pull out rather often (comparing how often he fights for real to how often he pulls it out) is a barrier shield.
Z-31
👊 - Describe their fighting style!
Long story short? Like an animal. His preference is to lurk underground and snag people away from the surface, all sneaky-like and assassin all the way. But of course in fights he can’t really go underground and hide, so when he’s not the one initiating the combat he’ll make himself small (however well that goes for an over-eight-feet-tall freak) and violently lash out to anything that comes close to him.
He wouldn’t initiate combat himself though, most likely. He’s a cuddlebutt.
❄ - What kind of weather do they prefer, and why?
He doesn’t really prefer any kind of weather, though he would want it to be dry whenever it can be. Rain is complicated for someone like him, because it fills everything around him with sound. And for someone who relies primarily on his hearing (because of the metal clamp over his eyes) that’s very annoying.
That and rain makes the ground all soggy and muddy. You know how annoying that is to dig in? I mean it feels funny, but… yegh. It gets everywhere, and then dries up!
🍸 - How would they celebrate a major event? (birthday, anniversary, etc)
I doubt he would at all. He’s completely clueless what a ‘major event’ even means, let alone celebrating them! Of course if someone starts a celebration somewhere immediately around him he’d join in, but… no, he wouldn’t start anything himself. He doesn’t even remember his own name, so remembering birthdays is out of the question.
⚔ - Is there a significance to the weapons they wield? Do they have names?
Wurmboye doesn’t use weapons, unless you count that what the experiments have provided to him; A big tail, mandibles and lotsa teeth, MASSIVE claws, and armor plating.
Yacc
👊 - Describe their fighting style!
If he can help it not at all. Despite the size and brawn, Yacc’s -extremely- timid and shy, and even regular conversation is enough to fluster him. When he does fight it’s mostly slow shoving, pulling, and pushing, using strength rather than speed to get enemies to the ground as gently as possible.
Of course this all doesn’t apply when he loses it. This happens very rarely, but it is something akin to a stampede when it happens. In this case you’d best just get out of the way, because (despite not being sharp!) those horns hurt.
❄ - What kind of weather do they prefer, and why?
As cold as it can get. Gifted with a very high body temperature and fur, Yacc’s incredibly resistant to cold. Which is why he lives in the Shiverpeaks. In his case, the cold -actually- never bothered him anyway.
The kind of weather he particularly enjoys, however, are blizzards. That’s the time to huddle up with the people you like and be comfortable together, and in his case serving as a giant heater for the people around him. Which is, of course, something that makes him blush like a maniac, but hey! That just amps up the temperature just that tiny bit more, no?
🍸 - How would they celebrate a major event? (birthday, anniversary, etc)
Yacc would celebrate any event with one of the two people he actually trusts; his friend Rhaull or his boyfriend Kexx. It wouldn’t be a big party at all, just a getting together and exchanging some stuff before going back to work, but… it’d be nice and comfortable. Probably with food in the evening.
⚔ - Is there a significance to the weapons they wield? Do they have names?
Yacc doesn’t particularly use weapons of significance. His hammer serves him well of course, whenever he does need it, but he’s not at all a fighter.
I’ll uh… I’ll end it here, to avoid it becoming too long ^^; Thanks so much for the ask, and feel free to ask again if you wanna know more!
I said I’d announce it when I’d picked a winner of the giveaway, and I’m here now to announce that this winner is @systemagica! Expect me to contact you soon, and thanks for participating!
To all those who -didn’t- emerge as picked today, worry not! Because of reasons I was very late with this giveaway, and I’m already halfway to the next one (76 followers oh my lord how’d I even get this far)!
Again, a very big THANK YOU to everybody who helped spread the word and also to everybody who participated in this. You guys are my life’s blood and I appreciate all of you so much.
For Bhazz/Wamm/Bamm's parents💑- Are you proud of your progenies? Is there anything you wish differently for them? For Menea's sires💑- Would you take your cub back now? Would/could you be proud of her?
Of course, thank you for the ask <3 Answers below the cut!
Plunk, Bhazz and Bammna’s dad:“My kids? Hoh, of course I’m proud of the two buggers! Both’ve had lots of things to deal with but both of ‘em also pulled through magnificently! Sure, Bhazz is a giant freak experiment – that’s just what he is, is all, I don’t mean anything by it – and Bammna’s manners have been tossed outta the window, but they’re still my kids and I’ll throw whomever’s trying to harm them in jail! Or, try to at least. Being legally retired has its downsides! HAH!”
“Only thing I’d like to see changed for ‘em, or well for Bhazz, is that he’d be more normal. Not for me, I will love him whatever he looks like, but for himself. The poor lad is bothered by what he looks like a lot more than he lets on. That’s the image he keeps going, the strong and indomitable defender. I know better though. Bam’s fine with what she has now, so… so am I!”Ana, Bhazz and Bammna’s mom: “Bammna and Bhazz, you say? Why in the -Alchemy- would I not be proud of them? The Inquest has had its way with the both of them, but if possible the fact that they both managed to stay so… content under it, all things considered, made me even prouder. And besides, it’s remarkably handy to have such strong kids walking about the place whenever physical labor needs doing, wouldn’t you say? Especially Bhazz, my boy’s as strong as several dolyaks!”
“Changed? Oh, that’s very simple. If I could I’d drag Bammna into a room and drill her some proper manners into that thick skull of hers. But I can’t, and that is alright. My opinion of her isn’t any lesser because of manners. And her uproarish behaviour is rather… enjoyable, sometimes.”
Wammuu’s parents could not be found. He was orphaned when he was but a progeny, and nobody has stepped up to claim responsibility for his existence. It is unknown of his parents are deceased or have otherwise abandoned him for reasons of their own.
Menea’s sire: “My daughter has been out of my sight for the overlarge part of her life, I could not care less what she does or did with her life. Or what happened to her. Why in the blazes would I take her back? Even if I wanted to have her back, she doesn’t even fit through the door.”
Menea’s mother: “Menea was sired to be a soldier, and I’d say she’s taken to that very closely. If anything she’s at least shown that she’s capable of killing. As for being proud of her, I suppose there’s the fact that she’s finally capable of putting up a fight. Personally, I think she’s a disgrace to Charr-kind. Those metal things added into her body, that’s something Asura would do. Not Charr. Even as a cub I’d expect her to be somewhat capable of defending herself, she was dead to me the moment she was caught. Anything else?”
