YAYAYAYAYA MY EGG IS THERE OOOHHHHH HE LOOKS SO CUTE 😭❤️

What does/would Zerpy think about any of Kirby’s friends, but especially Gooey? And have xey heard of Elfilis?

"Dont get me started on this guy... he's arrogant and egotistical, so fake. His spell casting is wasteful and inefficient, its like he taught himself. And that stupid ship of his that he holds so dearly! That junk can't even travel universes, what good is it? Dimensional travel is childs play. And then there's his aggressive branding... I've never met someone so in love with themselves. He puts that blue and gold pattern on everything he touches. What a piece of work he is, his only silver lining is he knows how to stand up for himself I suppose, don't tell him I said that."

"Gooey is... I don't trust it. It may be tame, but I would rather keep my distance from such a thing."

"As for Elfilis, yes, I'm aware of them. It's a shame they lost that immense power, if they are able to regain it, I'd love to consider them my equal someday."

Zerpy has a bit of a rivalry with Magolor, but I mean can you blame xem? There's only enough room in a universe for one spellcasting tech alien kitty.

Man, sorry for the yap fest, I spent a while trying to figure out how I'd answer this one. I hope it clears up your question! As to not make this post too too long, I'll include under the cut some more of Zerpy's thoughts I had planned out on other characters but didn't see fitting in the main post, as well as the some of the people who's Magolors you can see above :)

Propaganda for Zerpy ( by @taranzas-biggest-fan ) and Sir Meteor ( by @what-is-love-babey-dont-hurt-me ) ( WITH. A bonus pastel variant ) for the @kirbyoctournament !

[giantchasm]

OWO what's this?

Just an animatic for the @kirbyoctournament that's a propaganda piece for my OC Peony featuring not one, not two, not three... but 54 other contestants!

I'll put a list of all featured OCs under the cut. I'm sorry if I didn't manage to fit yours in! There are so many OCs in this tourney I absolutely adore. Maybe if Peony makes it through to Round 5 I'll do another propaganda animatic featuring even more OCs.

But for now... vote Peony when her poll goes up tomorrow! And enjoy the wonderful cast of this little project.

EDIT: Peony’s poll is up! Give her a vote, if you’d like! It’d mean the world 💖

Every OC featured in the animatic, in order, from left to right:

@george228732's Fylass @a-stardusted-sky's Dazor @zombiecicada's Wolfbell

@karmapigeons' Ant-Hony Bellerose @shippyo's Life

@hadopelagicpsi's Aphelion @nautical-nova's Dawn @starlightintermezzo's Hyper Knight

@staring-at-a-blank-pagee's Starry Dee @pastille-pain's Qiri @springbreezes-and-peonies' Peony

@ivynajspyder's Techie @rosiegardenlove's Shade Knight

@kamalemons's Pink Lemonade Driblee @expy-ceri's Ceri @jaspermythic-8's Cryst

@taranzas-biggest-fan's Zerpy @kirbart90's Astro @shibuyatoastedcursor's Periwinkle

@poppybros-jr's Cosmo @c0ffee-7's Star @boa35's Anti

@m0x1ez's Moonstone @clairetimes' Moroshi @isaackkkbunn's Artemis

@cauliarty's Dotty @eliastheownerof0axolotls' Flower Waddle Dee @ceragolor's Lorelia

@maybeher0's Chiffon @sacrificecage's Mapobas @starmagnets' Vic

@waddledoodledee's Reclusa @unleashedsonic's Atlas @ceoofmetagala's Flora @moonsharkss' Whisp @starrygoober's Daisy Waddle Dee @dizzy-dudd's Rifty

@moonverc3x's J @aseuki's Parhelion Knight @starflungwaddledee's Starstruck Dee

@quanblovk's Sir Uther @desultory-novice's Noir Fontaine

@absolutely-zero-regrets's Clark @tailsdollr's Vulcan @galapathy's Guinevere @azzie-tangerine's Era Knight @kosmic-autokrat's Aife @windstriker427's Nighty Knight

(As well as musescfmusic's Storm Knight, pinkestmenace's Olympea, gethoce's Valfrey, and scrorchrend's Sorile, however I'm not tagging the owners of those OCs as I'd feel bad tagging them just for a shadowed back view of their characters. I ought to draw all of them properly eventually!)

And... of course, finally: @justalilstar's Night Terror and @what-is-love-babey-dont-hurt-me's Sir Meteor: Peony's opponents in this upcoming round! Two truly fantastic characters, and I'm wishing them both the best of luck.

It was a blast getting to draw so many people's OCs! I'd love to do something similar again in the future. There are seriously so many awesome characters featured in the tourney that this is barely even scratching the surface. I hope everyone enjoyed their little cameos!

ROUND FOUR: Fal VS Zerpy

[starmagnets]

"Greetings Vic! I was wondering what your magic looks like? You and Marx both have some sort of connection to the wish-granting Novas, right?"

-Zerpy

“i have other magic, too, but it’s more like my paja’s, and since you brought up novas, i thought i’d talk about clockwork magic!”

[taranzas-biggest-fan]

Submission for the 2024 @kirbyoctournament!! yayyy!

Name: Zerpy

Pronouns: xey/them

Personality:

A little cold and prickly, defensive when interacting with strangers. They're bold and can be a little demanding at times. They were used to a life of being deeply respect, as well as extremely advanced technology, so sometimes xey act a little unimpressed at things. When xey warm up, they don't lose that boldness, but it becomes much more friendly. Xey can be a little mean when joking around and tend to tease as a sense of humour, but xey don't mean harm. They're incredible passionate about their interests, and determined to protect things of importance to them. Xey would fight tirelessly for a loved one, or what they believe as right.

Backstory

Zerpy was a commander in their planets forces, xer strong sense of justice worked well with their job of protecting. Their kind were incredibly advanced as a species, the apex predator. You were an ally who they fiercely protected, or an enemy who was mercilessly eradicated. Their boastful and overconfident nature and confidence was their downfall however, believing themselves to be incapable of falling. Unrest made them a prime target for dark matter, feeding on the negativity caused by fighting. In an already weakened state they were attacked, full of themselves and caught off guard, they stood their ground instead of fleeing. Zerpy was knocked unconscious for days until xey finally came to. When xey awoke everything had gone dark and silent. They managed to board a ship and flee, unable to take time to look for possible survivors. Currently Zerpy hops through different universes, looking for a solution to their problem of not being able to safely return and what they'll do then they do finally return, if there even is anything left to return to.

"Evening, Fitaphim. I possess a question, are you familiar with Elfilis?"

-Zerpy

fitaphim: I know a bit about them!!! They were the leader of the galaxy my ma is from a reaaaallllyyyyyyy long time ago!!! And… uh—

phinumiti: I can help you answer this one. Fecto Elfilis was, as Fitaphim stated, our leader 5,000 years ago. Though that timeframe is… somewhat insignificant to us, the Fecto themself… was certainly not.

Father told me many, many stories… how they were like a second child to him, my older sister would tell me how cool they were… all told me how dearly they were missed.

It was a lot, and as much as I hate to say it… I felt like I had to surpass them somehow.

And when they returned…

I thought them pathetic, both in expectation and for what I perceived as abandoning us.

But as I got older… I realized who was really in front of me… a dead man walking, who KNOWS they are a dead man walking… and who has done nothing to change it.

It’s hard to not feel nothing but pity once you learn something like that that.

oh i have so many guys to choose from... help yourself to Zerpy if you'd like!! if they dont speak to you, another favourite of mine is Fleuris

Yooooo all the peeps in the kirby art community, I've got a question: can I draw your silly ocs for something?? I wanna draw a big, chill piece of a cafe, and it's gonna need a lot of background characters (this is the part where you guys come in). I want to learn more about other people in this community and make some more friends, so I think this would be a cool way to do that!!

If you wanna see you silly goobers chilling with friends and drinking coffee, let me know by reblogging this and allowing me permission to use your character, and attach a ref sheet/photo if you can. Thanks yall, hope you'll like it once it's all done!!!
