LGBTQ+ Disabled Characters Showdown Round 1, Wave 3, Poll 16

A character being totally canon LGBTQ+ and disabled was not required to be in this competition. Please check qualifications and propaganda before asking why a character is included.

Check out the other polls in this wave and prior here.

Eduoar Corabelli II-The Reader Trilogy / Sea of Ink and Gold

Qualifications:

He's canonically mlm and has depression, and both his relationship with the man he loves and his mental illness are very important to his character and story. Since it's high fantasy the term 'depression' isn't actually available to him, but it's explicitly canon anyway and he just calls it 'melancholia.'

Propaganda:

Ed is like a Disney princess with depression--gentle, kind, loves animals dearly, all that jazz. He's also, when we meet him, being crushed under the weight of responsibility and a familial curse that kills every family member and each person they love before their time, and he's in the most fascinating, sweet, twisted little unspoken relationship. He loves this guy, his childhood friend, but is too scared because of the curse to give voice to those feelings; this guy loves him, but is too reluctant to talk about it, because of the guilt of actively poisoning Ed in a drawn-out assassination attempt and having just killed Ed's last relative. Also, Ed knows he's being poisoned and is gladly going along with it, because he's suicidal. It's complicated; he does get better though. Just know that their love is profound, but not as good as Ed deserves, and when he breaks free of the mental prison of being cursed and leaves the shadow of a man who almost killed him despite that love, he finds he's not just a good person but a capable one

Mod note: apparently according to Mod A “I HAD TO SCROLL THROUGH GOODREADS FOR LIKE TEN MINUTES TO FIND OUT IF THIS GUY EVEN EXISTS”

Eda Clawthorne-The Owl House

Qualifications:

She has a magical chronic disorder which has flare-ups, is mitigated by taking medication (potions), and has similar side effects to many real disorders such as fatigue, greying hair, and physical impairment (drains magic, a natural ability of *most witches). Unlike in other stories however, her condition is NOT ever completely cured. It does evolve and become more manageable over the course of the story, but she still experiences symptoms from it. Eda also loses one of her arms later in the story. She does get a replacement hook, but it is never shown whether she has a functional prosthetic or not. Most likely, she only has one fully functioning arm after this. As for being queer, she is in a relationship with a nonbinary person and is all but confirmed bisexual (has a secret box with the bi flag on it seriously why else would she have this). Also the owl house has a Lot of queer characters in it and I mean. just look at her. I would be surprised if she wasn't queer somehow.

Bisexual, and has a curse that affects her day to day life

Bi & lost arm and has a chronic illness metaphorically

Propaganda:

Has canonically dated both men and a non-binary person. Her curse affects her ability to use magic (and at one point outright stops it), which is very important in witch life. Said curse also causes her body parts to fall off sometimes. Many have said her curse is like a metaphor for depression but really it's more like a magic version of a physical disability (although I wouldn't be surprised if she actually also had depression).

Uuuuh she’s great and stuff idk I can’t propaganda well sorry

[ramblebramblepoetry]

Sea swallow me; my rosary

Break into pearls; let breakers hurl

Them unto the rocks; between the docks

Shining silver stars; opalescent glint

Like the look in my father's eyes when he saw the gold.

Sea swallow me; let the deep

Take me down; let him keep

His empty hands, grasping; unable

To choose between gold and girl

Before both left him hollow.

Wanted to rework my salmonid anatomy so take some variants in the form of my lil guys

[medusasembrace12]

This is a book, and a book is a world, and words are the seeds in which meanings are curled. Pages of oceans and margins of land are civilizations you hold in the palm or your hand.

But look at your world and your life seems to shrink, to cities of paper and seas made of ink. Do you know who you are, or have you been misled? Are you the reader, or are you the read?

This is a word, and a word is a spell - a promise to keep or a secret to tell. Controlling the word means the power to frame how the ages of history remember you name.

Are you hero or villain? A savior or spy? Some titles are lovely. Some titles are lies. You can claim who you are, now that you've found your voice. But those who are chosen will not have a choice.

This is a story as vast as the sea, but on its waters, you'll never be free. No matter your course, your future is set, and destiny laughs as she tightens the net.

Words to Kelannans are breath on a glass, but if it is written, it will come to pass. Is your sight growing clearer, the closer you look? The Book is a world, for the world is a book.

A Mermaid’s Tale - Part 3 - Official Patch Notes

All text and images come from the CRK Discord server. GIFs that *would* have come from there are now still screenshots because Tumblr refuses 10+ MB GIFs. My own comments will use this indented format. All Cookies with tags were mentioned at least once this post.

September 8 Update Notice

Greetings from the Kingdom team!

Let’s take a look at the list of new features coming with the September 8 update.

Please note that there will be other fixes and adjustments to improve your Kingdom experience as well.

You can find the detailed list of changes, additions, and fixes in the patch notes published on the day of the update.

WHAT’S NEW

■ [EPIC] FRILLED JELLYFISH COOKIE

Editor’s Note: Redact my last statements in the last patch notes post stating “No new Epic Cookie”, half-side because we’re turning this into thirds, and the absence of Frilled Jellyfish Cookie as a Guest Cookie. She’s appearing in Part 3 as a new Epic Cookie.

- Frilled Jellyfish Cookie is a Support Cookie who uses the skill, “Frilled Snare.”

- Skill description: Upon using her skill, Frilled Jellyfish Cookie ensnares up to 5 enemies (targets Cookies first) with her tentacles, dealing Sea Foam damage and reducing their ATK SPD. The targets are inflicted with Zap and take increased Water-type DMG. Additionally, Frilled Jellyfish Cookie will burrow in the ground and protect herself with a DMG Resist buff. When Frilled Jellyfish Cookie uses her skill, ATK SPD changes don't affect her actions. If Frilled Jellyfish Cookie is defeated, she will dissipate into several little jellyfish, who will periodically provide Healing for the team.

- Frilled Jellyfish Cookie will also be able to equip Sea Salt Toppings.

■ NEW MAGIC CANDY: SORBET SHARK COOKIE

- Magic Candy effect: Inflicts additional damage to the enemies in the front row when dealing area damage. Bites the targets of the True Damage, inflicting additional damage, Injury, and reducing the Healing they receive.

■ HALL OF ENCOUNTER, A MERMAID’S TALE: FRILLED JELLYFISH COOKIE

- Frilled Jellyfish Cookie has been added to the Hall of Encounter.

ADDITIONS, CHANGES & IMPROVEMENTS

■ COOKIES CAN SWIM!

- Some Cookies have gained the ability to swim in the Kingdom’s water tiles!

· These Cookies are: Candy Diver Cookie, Squid Ink Cookie, Stardust Cookie, Black Pearl Cookie, Sorbet Shark Cookie, Crimson Coral Cookie, Aquamarine Cookie, Gold Citrine Cookie, Mystic Opal Cookie, Frilled Jellyfish Cookie

· Stardust Cookie will levitate above the water.

■ NEW MUSIC TRACK FOR SEA FAIRY COOKIE & MOONLIGHT COOKIE

- Added a brand-new background music track for Sea Fairy Cookie & Moonlight Cookie’s bond story, “Sea Breeze Flowing Through the Stars.”

- The music track will be played with or without lyrics depending on the language: the lyrics are available only in the Korean version of the game.

■ MILEAGE SHOP: ROCKSTAR COOKIE’S & BLACK LEMONADE COOKIE’S SOULSTONES ADDED
