Okay, hear me out, I have another RP, but it's a large scale one this time. @xinoehp512 I think you might be interested in this. It's the year 300 or so on the planet Terinost, 300 years after the neighboring planet exploded under mysterious circumstances and the 100 year anniversary of the Emperor's reign. He keeps the planet safe from ghosts, but his throne was won through no small amount of blood and no one thrives except perhaps the criminal underground. The Emperor keeps his rule by way of the handerfles; his strange and vicious legions of anthropomorphic flying snakes that serve as slaves, government officials, and guards. Meanwhile, a cult flourishes, worshiping the mysterious Imperium; the being who is supposedly the reason why 10% of Terinost exhibits telepathic powers. Whispers of a Key that grants immortality still circulate, but are beginning to die on the wind. Is the legend true? Perhaps the Emperor knows. Or perhaps the Imperium. Anyone could say... As for how this RP could go, I think we could definitely work with the Imperium cult, maybe have a band of mercenaries with a defective handerfle, or perhaps we explore the Emperor's ship where the handerfles plot to revolt against His Highness under the name of their prophesied savior, the immortal Ralvon Kanze. It's really up to you guys.

OH MY SHARDS IT'S ALREADY THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN. Y'all, in the past year I have come so storming far in my artwork. I've learned a ton about anatomy and proportions and I've gotten better at shading and faces and it's honestly really crazy to me. I am SO GLAD my friend convinced me to do the Inktober challenge last year, because it will be a great benchmark to compare this year to. I spent an insane amount of time prepping for this and I am on the edge of my seat for each and every drawing that I'll be presenting to y'all. One thing I'm doing slightly different this year: I had the idea to put some color in one of the drawings and then I realized it would be a ton of fun if I tried to colored one thing in each drawing. (Don't worry, it's still ink :P) So I really hope that works out (there will undoubtedly be a handful and a half that are completely black and white though and I am totally fine with that). Six or seven months ago I really started using markers in my art and I have since amassed over 60 different shades. They're ridiculously fun to art with. I also decided to base a lot more of my drawings on specific quotes. Some of those quotes are from non-canon Keyed stuff, some are from CBST, some are from TLT, some are from stuff that will be in the Keyed books, and some are from me just messing around. I am SO excited to kick things off tomorrow!!!! See ya then! - Star

Sam the half handerfle stood at the docks. They weren't much; not a whole lot of shipping you could do when the city was underwater. But, apparently, some managed. He strode back and forth on the pier, restless. Something had driven him here; something he couldn't describe. It was sort of a internal gut feeling. Hard to describe, even when hunger wasn't complicating things. He checked his purse. Six twenty? That was a lot less then he thought he had. Almost certainly not enough to get anything more than a snack. He sighed, and put the purse away. Hopefully something interesting would happen here soon. @beantheboy12 @Shard of Thought

Yay, I've completed my first Inktober drawing! Ink is... a lot easier than I expected. I still have a lot to learn, but I am immensely happy with the way this is going so far! Here's for the prompt "ring" - Star's wedding ring around Marsh's linchpin spike. *sigh* Bittersweet...

In a darkened world, an apocalyptic TLT… Featuring @Shard of Thought: Thought and AJ @beantheboy12: AJ @xinoehp512: Tom Joebob & Fantastic @Jaywalk: Jay and his bunny Bozo

Hi guys! @beantheboy12 and I had a duel on The Last Post Wins and it ended up turning into a pretty cool story. If you want to check it out, go and look at TLPW, but I can summarize. Essentially I was a Shard (the Shard of Thought) but my powers have been stolen from me. Now, having nowhere to go, I am traveling with AJ (Bean) - the man who partially caused my descension or whatever. AJ is on the run (for reasons I honestly do not know) and so we're trying to survive while also trying to piece our lives together. The only thing I really know about my own past is that I was called Tamika, and I'm still not very comfortable with the fact that I am now mortal. If this sounds like something you'd like to help us with then say so! We'd love to expand this little story into something much bigger. You can join with as much or as little Investiture as you would like, as an antagonist or helper. Just make sure to be within reason. No fullborns, no Shards. Edit: This RP will take place in any thread tagged "Fallen". You may join at any point in the story, just give a short bio of your character on this thread.

He thought. They almost found us. He waited a moment, and then stepped out of the alley. The market wasn't that far off. He preferred to stay in this village for as little time as possible so he ran out, holding a hood to his face, towards the nearest vender's booth. Jewelry. That wouldn't help. Though Thought might like it. He walked to a corner and waited for the vender's back to be turned to create a portal to grab a beautiful amethyst necklace. He examined it and gave it to her.

AJ stood soaked on top of small platform above a bustling city as Thought followed behind. “Welcome,” he said, “To the city of the lake, Edopus.” He began to scale a ladder down to the base levels, the most populated areas in which they could disappear. Calamity had sent him here a few years back. Luckily, everyone was flagged here and there were no cops. Only mercenaries. And those mercenaries would know to stay away from Calamity’s chosen. “Stay close,” he said. “There are dangerous people here.”
