OKAY IM GONNA BIG RAMBLE, SO HEADS UP!!!

some small ( maybe big tbh ) changes i've made in regards to depths of depravity vs the og, because i want it to still have its ties with its predecessor but still have it's own uniqueness to stand on, is mostly within it's world-building and setting! cause the base inspirations i'm using for depths of depravity setting is:

which, to explain, is the common theme of "something abnormal is here, but the common mass is unaware over HOW DEEP this abnormality is". the idea of people living in this small, remote town, surrounded by nature for YEARS so as a result, to stay away from anything dangerous they have created folktales & stories to warn against the dangers nature has. but as result of perpetuating these stories through generations, the townspeople have grown DEEPLY unaware of much danger is hidden beneath them and therefore now shun & scoff at any accounts regarding the dangers, treating it as "people taking stories too seriously".

which is why dod looks like, SO CUTE and PINK when taking your first glance. because you KNOW something bad is happening, you're just waiting for that other shoe to drop. and it's also why i changed a bit of the supernatural stuff happening in the town, so rather it being tentacles and a ghost haunting after the pc specifically, it's transformed into well. supernatural things lying in wait for you as the player to discover, rather than specifically HUNTING you down.

cause then, when you have one pc going on mad ramblings regarding the things they are discovering, there is another pc who has no idea what they are spewing about, thinking they are genuinely insane. this dissonance within personal experiences, and how divides are made based on who and who doesn't know. some pcs can genuinely live their life and graduate not knowing a single thing happening within the town, and there are some who well. would.

this is gonna be made ESPECIALLY APPARENT with some of the NPCs in dod, with a division of who knows what. cause some LIs & NPCs only know the base of fucked up levels, which is the trafficking and sexual exploitations that happens in the town. while the other half knows the supernatural and occult that the town is birthed from.

leading to ofc, changes made within the church & cult. in which rather than the two exists on the extreme spectrum of no sex to sucking and fucking 24/7, it's on the spectrum of what's considered "vanilla" VS 'someone needs to go to the hospital after this'. and im putting air quotes around vanilla, because in comparison to the cult, it is!! but to the average joe, it's like '...okayyy'. cause i want the church & cult to give the same vibes of healing church vs school of menesis, like both groups that worship similar figures but divided in regards to how they both choose to show worship and ascension. like dod's equivalent of a schism event within the religions. which, due to their inspirations, ifykyk, im subtly saying there is gonna be human experimentation.

me turning to everyone here. there is gonna be human experimentation within dod. the monsters i keep talking about in my tags, that i wanna put in the deep woods and deep fields, they are experimentations that veered off too far from desired product. and you may ask: basil, why is there experimentation in dod? and to that i say: how else am i gonna explain the TFs in the setting 🤨 

now i rambled on long enough i think. i'll reblog this when i have more to ramble on. there's still more stuff to be explained within this topic, regarding the auriga/iw equivalent, luren and the virgo equivalent, caeius, and how their 'hauntings' is not so much hauntings, but rather the actions of simple desires & intentions being read as something inhumane solely because of their now transformed shapes, but that's for another time.

small Echoes of Wisdom spoilers you find out pretty early on in the game... //

"Lost Voice"

i think Link's backstory for why he's canonically mute this time around is pretty intriguing and the idea of suddenly not being able to speak is pretty terrifying when you think about it

good-ending!kakashi and itachi need to have a little former traumatized geniuses cooking club where they get comfortable with making little "mistakes" and putting imperfect dishes on the table and improvising without needing to explain themselves like it's life or death

the one thing id agree with is the album is pretty safe but like it's their first album

[andersdotters]

While it does seem hypocritical that the Traveler is okay with Childe, but not with Lyney and Lynette, it's important to remember that this is not the first time they have dealt with House of the Hearth members. The Traveler has first hand experience with the crimes and cruelties the group has committed, but have not experienced the same with Childe. So it would only make sense why they're more on edge with the twins.

Been working with my nieces recently and had to show off the collaborative efforts the three of us put together. They did most of the work, and I helped with brush choices and showing them how to use procreate.

Made in procreate
