Those pictures of cats distorted through glasses but it’s also a bit of anatomy practice

So I’m gonna be making daxima adoptables, here’s the first one I made

Fleshing out one of my creatures, look at this dumb lil guy

[welcome-to-tworvenul]

Ask me or send me prompts about Tworvenul, whether it’s something about a particular species or the planet’s climate or whatever, I just need ideas

[welcome-to-tworvenul]

Does anybody have a species that communicates through pheromones? Preferably one that’s sentient. I’m writing another thing for the votchels and need someone who’ll be the one describing what a particular scent means.

I’ve made a Discord server! If you‘d like to meet other people who like fantasy-sci-fi stuff or want more from Tworvenul, feel free to join!

Quick doodle, they Ponder

[welcome-to-tworvenul]

Okay so it took me like an entire minute but I came up with a good title for The Worlds of Ventzel and Unulza: it’s called Tworvenul, pronounced like “to-wor-ven-null,” the first two parts are pronounced in rapid succession.

Drawing at 9:40 a.m. let’s fucking goooooo

[welcome-to-tworvenul]

One would think that I’d be ecstatic to write about the creatures I’ve been developing for twelve years but I don’t knOW WHERE TO START

[welcome-to-tworvenul]

If you’d like I’ll call them subspecies and I’ll name them after you unless you’d like to name them yourself

Okay now I’m curious: how do y’all imagine the votchel to look like? I wanna Know what my things look like to other people before I show what I made them to look like

FINS. THEY’RE TAIL FINS. TAIL FINS THAT ASSIST IN FLIGHT I CANNOT BELIEVE I FORGOT THE WORD FINS FOR AN ENTIRE DAY

This article contains details of the species known as the Votchel, a creature created by yours truly. Content warning for mentions of sex, cannibalism, death and disease, and potentially disturbing description of alien biology.

Votchels are carnivorous predators that roam the plains and forests of Ventzel, the adults sporting long, thin bodies and limbs and large, curved, triangular wings. They are covered in short, fine fur. Along the tail, longer tufts of fur form flat parts that assist in flight by keeping the votchel’s body level while in the air. Two feathery antennae stick up from the top of the head, and it’s apparent that the votchel has the same control over these antennae the same way most creatures have over their ears. They have five-part jaws, rows of teeth lining the four split mandibles. Their eyes are large and compound, and are believed to give around 270-degree vision. They are quadrupedal, with three-toed feet that have two toes pointing forward and one pointing back, on all four feet. A shorter pair of limbs in the middle of the torso end in points, often used to carry their young. At the time, none of our field researchers have been able to get closer to properly study their reproductive biology in detail.

The young are larval, with the same hair and eyes as their parents. As they age, they grow out and lose most sets of their legs, though it is not uncommon to see a votchel with tiny nubs where their legs never quite fell off. However, this leaves the young vulnerable to infection, and many die. It is a similar situation with their wings, but the bone structure is trapped beneath the skin until they’ve lost most of their legs. Eventually, the wings burst out, and this also leaves them vulnerable. The votchels more than make up for this, though, by laying as many as 30 eggs in one brood, according to remote drone surveillance. Generally, three or four survive to adulthood. Due to the great amount of loss in their species, votchels are generally apathetic towards any sort of creature.

However, they are not uncompassionate. A pair of votchels will mate, then care for their young until they reach adulthood. After this, the same pair may come together again and again, though it is not uncommon for them to switch mates every once in a while. Sometimes, a mated pair will include a third or fourth member, taking turns with one another and remaining a close group as a whole. Other times, a pair or group may not reproduce at all, and instead help raise the larvae of others. Lately, it’s been observed that groups are beginning to settle near one another, and are even willing to share food. They are using body language and sounds to communicate with one another. It is theorized that they are going to become more social creatures in the future.

As stated before, votchels are carnivorous, and they are aggressive to other species that they deem as threat or prey. They are currently the only known creature to attack a rakchure, a large but docile creature, on their own, though most of the time they are accompanied by their mates. They then quickly consume the creature where they are, unless they sense they are under any sort of threat. Rarely, they may take their catch with them. Other than the rakchure, their diet consists of avian and aquatic fauna, the occasional clawful of berries or fruits, and their own dead. When a votchel larva dies, they are quickly cannibalized by their siblings or parents. When an adult passes, they are often fed to their young or consumed by members of their own group. This is the reason we know so little about their biology.

They appear to be starting to understand germs and disease in some form. Young that emit strange smells or develop sacs of fluid on their body are now being removed from their healthy brethren and left out to die. We hope to eventually take one of these expelled larvae and heal it, then keep it as it grows to study their biology.

I’ve finally completed the article on the votchels, I did my best to structure it in some way that made sense, and let me know if you have any questions!

Don’t worry I’m still just procrastinating on writing those posts about my different flora and fauna! I plan on tagging each post with what creatures/characters it has in it, so once that’s done you can just click the tag of your choosing and scroll through the (currently nonexistent) posts with those guys. Coming soon, I promise!

Participating in National Novel Writing Month. I intend to finish chapter one of my story by the end of today (November 7th), and after that my goal is to write at least 500 words per day, with the occasional skip for other events like Oddmall or hanging out with friends. And yes, the Comic Sans trick works. Have a lovely November, and good luck to all participating in NaNoWriMo!
