Caw?

What a wild way to find out that my asks have been locked this ENTIRE time.

✨️So✨️

The project is still simmering but about a little while ago I tried to design dragons again, except all the attempts that excites me were Electro Corvids instead of dragons. Sparkbeaks. I took my colourful zapdos babies and moved on.

So I started looking at the world and found out there are Bones in the Earth. Large bones. One giant creature bones, and that's been haunting me for about a week trying to figure out how or why a giant cliff coasted island is an isolated archeoligist's dream.

And today it hit me.

Not so long ago, the divines and powers that be saw that the magic in the world gave mortals too much power. Why elevate the divines into true gods if all was possible already? So they sought to lower the living, strip them of their power and create a gorge between the accomplishments of mortals and the hopes of achieving it amongst themselves. The divines targeted the powerful first- for without Dragons, the people would be without the guidance and shelter under their wings.

The dragons roared in defiance. The divines expected this. However they were also isolated creatures, and the divines stole away their power one by one.

A songbird confessed what they saw.

The divines were not prepared for the mortals to roar in defiance together. Humans and Sparkbeaks and Dragons and the others among them defied those who wanted to be gods- the false protectors.

One ancient soul knew they would he able to flee, even on his old bones, but that would mean abanonding the people who fought to protect him. So instead, he cut the land from its sisters and paid the cost of the magic, flesh and blood and soul, to build a haven where magic was a thing of the earth, and not the people. The divines could not hunble what was already dead.

The people kept it a secret. And secrets are forgotton. And now the people of today have been digging, learning about their home, and the rich marrow that provides the magic. They are making it into jewelry. Some have made the mistake of making it into soup. Some marrow was burned and lost forever, weaking the magic of their home, just a little.

They fear the Unknown Entity that could have slain such a massive beast.

They know nothing lf their history.

Thanks for giving me the opportunity!! I'm really looking forward to developing the mechanics for how the magic behaves in different forms!

Happens to the best of us!

Also oh my god that sounds so damn cool and interesting, the lore is so enchanting! I'm really captivated by it!

I'm excited to see where it goes and how the magic develops! Please tag me in any snippets and such!

Not the usual thing I post on this blog but I promised pictures. This is my tengu costume/fursuit I wore at Fur Squared this year. I had a ton of fun at the con and enjoyed a weekend of just being a bird.

I got so many wonderful comments, but the best comment I got during the weekend was “You aren’t a fursuit. You are a work of art.” <3
