*TONK*

[edspear]

Monty No. 10, designed by Chief Engineer Montgomery Pommel in an amphetamine fueled haze for the Most Glorious Nation State of Zilch before its destruction in the "Great Flattening". It's roundness ensured it would survive. And with a canister of go juice and no seatbelts this is a most dangerous and devastating Tonk to pilot.

So that's one of my most proud Kitbashes so far for a rousing game of Tonks.

Honestly I might try doing this more often.

Long time no see.

I love your character designs omg but what species are they (if any)? Or do you have any world building/lore you can share about them?

Thank you! Ouuuughhhhh I have a wide variety of characters so I'm going to assume you mean "the main ones" that I draw fervently, i.e. the weird monsters especially of the long and tubey variety.

For species, I have a few, but they don't really have lore or details written out much. The designs you see are 99% of what there is to know. Right now I refer to them colloquially as "Scott's species", which are the noodley kind, "Raoul's species", which are the lizardy kind, and "Honky and Tonk's species", which are the poofbally kind. There's also Stanson, but he's not really a species. He's just him. And humans. Which are just humans.

You'll notice a pattern here of them just being referred to as whoever was first designed. Those characters became the blueprint for the rest of their species. I'll come up with official names for them some day, and I've yet to settle on anything that really "clicks", but I'll let people know if I figure it out.

All I can tell you for now is that Scott's species have a tendency to fixate on something. In his case it presents as an addiction to alcohol, but in someone else it might look like only being capable of talking about gardening. They often have something they love doing that they can be very intense about, which may be very good or very bad. This is not a strict rule, however, and this is more of a suggestion to springboard a personality and motive for a character rather than Lore from the Lore Bible.

In a similar vein, I'm thinking of making Honky and Tonk's species have a tendency to form gimmicky pairs. But again, I'm ready to abandon damn near anything if it suits my humor in the moment.

Also no one asked but Honky and Tonk would look like this if you shaved them.

As for world-building in general, that's a difficult thing to ramble about. I play it fast and loose and keep it minimalist. Perhaps this strategy would work very poorly for certain kinds of stories, but mine works largely like the real world (but with more disorderly creature freaks). There's not much to know about most things except the characters, and the story is more about who they are than what they are. I want the focus to remain where it should. I don't write what I don't need.

That said, if there's something you really want to know about, get specific with your questions because otherwise I'm going to stare off into space when I try to come up with an answer.

Like this. ^

Questions about individual characters will probably net more interesting information.
