i had to make one for them too

[martynsimp69]

sorry balance-wise i am also still laughing about the difference between Xisuma’s team, in which Scott went “maybe if i stick him on a team with FBM and Joel he has a shot???”, Iskall’s team, in which Scott went “this may be overpowered if Iskall picks up the games fast enough to show off his movement skills but we have a Fienberg in Red so it’ll probably at least still be competitive”, and Team TIES here, in which Scott went “just to confirm: you don’t give a shit about winning as long as you’re together right”,

three kinds of new MCC hermit teams.

[martynsimp69]

obsessed with both of them actually. what the fuck is wrong with ethoslab specifically LMAOOOO

[martynsimp69]

place your bets on your phone now: did etho give in to scott’s “if you want to keep playing mcc you have to start streaming”, or did scott give in to etho’s “if you want me in mcc you have to let me not stream”? did the unstoppable force or the immovable object succeed first? is etho’s setup even capable of streaming,

Hi!!

I was a bit confused on you info about Lumians, and wanted to ask you if you have any more info on them! :D

I’m totally cool with infodumping btw!

Thanks in advance!! :>

Boy oh boy spopera lore time!

First of all credit for Lumian!Martyn to @strifesolution , who is the local Yogscast fan among us space operators that make up the au, and since lumians are a yogs aliens.

General spopera tdlr is: treebark are spaceship racers! For the space opera au I think we’ve been allowed to make things up a bit and play around with the lumian worldbuilding. Here’s what I got from the collective lore google docs for the au:

Lumians are a bipedal humanoid species that produces a bioluminescent element in their bodies called bioneos. Lumians are identifiable by bioneos freckles. In the au and out of the main characters, Martyn and False are lumians, Martyn having an almost cyan tone to his bioneos, while False has red.

The colour varies, and it can help track family lineage, despite the fact that lumians are typically a communal species with no nuclear family unit. However, some lumian families that leave their home planet may no longer have the community support, and likely adopt a family unit home style.

Lumians may have “gendered” appearances but they are a unisexual species. Societal roles in lumian culture are often decided by stature. Shorter, broader lumians often take to building, hunting, and child rearing. Taller, more slender lumians will take to taming, climbing, and navigation.

The home planet of Lumians, Corruscate, has a tropical climate. The planet is mostly covered in jungle and forests, with megaflora that cast dark shadows. To compensate for the darkness created, living species in Corruscate, as the lumians themselves, have bioneos that create the bioluminescence typical of lumians.

Since lumians are from a hot planet, they are particularly susceptible to cold and temperature drops. As a defense mechanism to save energy mentally and physically, and to be able to get themselves out of the cold, they’ve evolved “glacieration”, also known as “frost mode”

Frost mode is essentially a survival mode to keep them alive. As the temperature decreases the lumian will feel cold and uncomfortable and sick, until they suddenly seem to gather themselves and be okay; this, apart from a pale and grey complexion and dulled glow, is a sign of frost mode.

The body freezes over as it switches its priority from maintaining heat to creating adrenaline for the lumian to use to get themselves into a safe temperature. However, the modern lumian can decide to ignore the primitive urge to warm up and instead do other activities, although prolonged frost mode is lethal.

A result of the intense shot of adrenaline is erratic behaviour, like apathy or snapping or being aggressive.

(These pieces I made for treebarkweek, for example, were meant to be about frost mode happening while Ren and Martyn went to a very cold planet for a race. The assumption is that the cold discomfort happened mid-race, but Martyn refused to retire. Afterwards when Ren follows him into the lockers he finds him fully in frost mode; he can't feel the cold anymore since he's sort of icy all over now, and he's pumped full of adrenaline and suceptible to being irrational, so he'll probably pick a fight with Ren if Ren decides to chastise him about putting the race before his health)

(My guy is ice. He's producing cold clouds. Someone give him lukewarm water)

(Also it might be obvious already but frost mode was taken from the idea of having inthelittlefrost in the au somehow.)

Just watching Cleo's Season 6 for fun and look what popped up in chat!

We sure do take a lot of modern minecraft and mods for granted.

As much as I'm excited about s10, OH BOY, the absolute chaos that was late s9....

When your friend threatens to sacrifice another friend in front of everyone while rapping: YIPPEE *claps politely*

[martynsimp69]

the chosen aesthetics of the various redstoners fascinate me. tango and impulse are tinkerers of various mechanical marvels. doc is the industrial revolution personified. mumbo continually casts himself as a silicon valley startup guy. its just. Interesting

nuclear family as described by Iskall

[martynsimp69]

I knew Ren had to be the one WEARING the cloak, but I struggled to pick between Iskall and Cleo for who the filthy casual was. I know I’ll draw Cleo on their own sometime, so I decided to give Iskall a try! And then I added the bowling alley and Joe just APPEARED!

Also, I only meant to spend 20-30 minutes on this, a quick sketch, but I ended up spending an hour and a half on it!

Background (and Joe) free and inspiration post under cut

so. what do we think of the wels doc diss track.
