KIRBY AND THE FORGOTTEN LAND NINTENDO SWITCH 2 EDITION + STAR CROSSED WORLD!

This is interesting, because there’s at least one pause screen that could imply sectonia has been around for a while.

The dreamstalk, used to clone sectonia, contains data of creatures spanning 1000 years.

And she’s said to have fed off countless hosts.

There are a few ways you could interpret this, and the Japanese text might have completely different implications… but you could put these two together as “Sectonia fed off hosts spanning a period of 1000 years.”

Because the Kirby cast is made up of various alien species, I feel like the approach is “it doesn’t matter how old they are, as long as they have the right vibe”. Elfilin has probably existed way longer than Dedede, but you still see Elfilin as a kid and DDD an adult. That kind of thing.

So maybe Tarzana is just a young 1000 year old. (???)

Anyway, I love this kinda stuff! Thank you for sharing!

The new [It's Kirby Time] book is out!

It's a very cute adventure about Kirby and Elfilin looking for a place to have a picnic and discovering several nice places are too crumbled to eat on!! However, even though they get a little crumbly, they are still certain people's favorite spots! It ends with telling you not to judge that someone's "rock that is very comfy to sit on" is a broken thing!

Random Items of Note + Some Sample Pictures!

-They go back and forth between Dream Land and the New World, finally ending up in the vicinity of Waddle Dee Town after discovering it looks nice and stable to have their picnic.

-A Primal Awoofy speaks to the two of them! (Might just be to Elfilin, who seems to be an interpreter for Beast and ... Dream Land-ese? Either way, it's capable of speaking full sentences!)

-They picnic in the Originull Wasteland in front of Alivel Mall (you can see the mark) and Elfilin waxes poetic on the ruins behind them may have been the location of someone's important shop long ago.

-Taranza makes an appearance and mentions that the Dream Stalk is his favorite spot, and the place he wants to protect before going back to planting flowers. What is ALSO noteworthy about this page is that Taranza is described as "a youth" (若者) by the narrator. The same word the games use to describe Kirby's age! ^^;

(That Taranza cookie is seriously gorgeous though)

Frankly, this, in combination with Taranza also having been described as a "bocchan" or young noble boy back in Star Allies (?) has me rethinking some HCs (And yes, I argued against it meaning he was youngish before, but now, I'm kind of reconsidering...)

Kirby is made in Japan. ^^; I wonder if HAL might be leaning into the whole cast being what people sometimes mockingly refer to as "anime ages." Interesting bit for them to include in this book, anyway!

By the way, I'm Finally getting around to seeing the last of the attacks I recieved on artfight last year! It's only been *checks watch* 7 MONTHS! AHHHHHHHH

I forgot my password and was so embarrased about it I left the internet. (That's a joke, but I did genuinely forget my password for a while... and by then I was preoccupied with life again.....)

Really don't know much about your Morpho gijinka, but Morpho wearing the kimono the way a dead would is on purpose?

Good eye, yeah that was deliberate. Here's a copy of their description:

Design Information: Morpho has two locs of "hair" that resemble a butterfly's antennae when fully down. They are tied together at the back, held in place with a hair ornament. The wings are slightly see-through. They can be wrapped around the body like a skirt, or simply fall behind like a cape. In skirt form, the gradient of the wings is optional (because I forget to add it lol) Her clothing style is very traditional Japanese. Her main outfit is based on samurai armour. Due to Morpho's association with death, the kimono is wrapped right over left.  She's a similar height to Galacta Knight, who is taller than meta knight, who is taller than kirby. They're almost always in butterfly form when they're not fighting. Description: A mysterious butterfly known as Morpho Knight. It resides in the land of Hades, alongside a sparse few others. It assimilates powerful souls to get stronger. This is known as "Judgement." Certain lifeforms who have a strong urge to live can overcome the assimilation process. Typically, though, they remain fused with Morpho. It takes the form of a humanoid when fighting. It based this form on the humanoid lifeforms she's witnessed throughout the galaxy. Embodying death, morpho is a neutral force, with no patricular moral alignment. Still, it will sympathise with the souls that cry for help.

She has her eyes on Kirby, the soul with infinite potential. Extras: Morpho is one of my favourite Kirby characters. Everything from their design to their themeing to their boss theme is fantastic. Although, if I could change one thing about them, I'd give them a scythe. Morpho is also one of my older Kirby Gijinkas. I've barely reworked it since then because I like what I came up with. Canon Morpho Knight doesn't have much of a personality to go on, so I like to have fun with it. Like a lot of the end-game bosses, in any other context outside of the end-game they'd seem a bit goofy and out-of-place. So if you need an idea for what to draw, you can depict them singing "Wham Bam Shang-A-Lang" for karaoke night. Morpho doesn't have a gender, but I use It/They/She for them. I reject he/him Morpho knight lol

Morpho concept

I've posted information about this design on artfight.... ----> here!!!

I wasn't sure artfight allowed gijinkas, but apparently it does. So i'm giving it a go (scared)

This is the only character I've uploaded and I haven't attacked anyone yet... Instead I wrote detailed character permissions for no reason orz

If you're on artfight, let me know and I'll give you a follow :)

Hi guys, forgive me for this insane question:

*and therefore they are not "just computers". Perhaps you think they're more akin to magical artifacts (like the master crown for example)

**Biological = biological organism, even if it was biologically engineered instead of naturally occurring (like if you were to grow an organ from scratch (e.g, the heart of nova?). That could imply their abilities that one might consider magic (such as portals) are innate to their biology (like Elfilis's possibly are?).

I'd love to read about why you chose your option in the tags!

You can also read a little about what I think:

I was typing up some of my own headcanons about the novas and it got me really curious about what other people think... There's a lot of different options and they've been bouncing around in my brain.

For one, I hope to gather data about how people think the magic system works in kirby. For example, is magic something any creature, even a computer, can learn and perform? Or are specific races/species/artifical beings not able to perform magic with knowledge alone, due to things like their biology? Depending on what you think, the nature of the clockwork stars changes...

I'm a subscriber to the latter theory, but I think it's both possible to "unlock" the ability to perform magic - for example, being possessed by dark matter - and to "use" magic through the use of a magical tool. If the novas were simply built with a magic component installed, granting wishes isn't exactly out there.

There's also the question about *why* the novas were built by the ancients. One of my headcanons is that they're basically the ancient's "cloud" - a big computer network that holds all of the ancient's computer data, libraries of knowledge, and maybe even all their magical data. This data was so extensive it therefore allowed them the knowledge to grant wishes...

I also can't remember where I saw this, but I remember seeing a theory about how the heart of nova resembles the jamba heart and how they could've been used as Incubators to grow the various spawns of void. That's too cool...

I also have so many questions about how Haltmann built star dream. What resources did he use, how difficult were they to find, did he use any substitute materials? Why does star dream's heart look different to Galactic Nova's?

Were the scientific ancients so advanced that they could create *computers* that grant wishes? Is it simply science so advanced that it's beyond our human comprehension? Or else, did Haltmann need to use magic (whatever that would involve) in order to built Star Dream? Was there a biological component Haltmann needed to engineer or FIND in order to complete it?

Anyway, I hope to do more polls like this. I'm hopefully going to be less busy in the summer and I can talk about kirby a lot.
