ElithianFox's Bulletins


Personal art idea list

Posted 7 years, 3 months ago by ElithianFox

Eli's personal art idea list 

I've been in need of a place to store all my personal art ideas but I didn't like Trello, Google docs takes minutes to load simple documents, and in sta.sh I'll accidentally delete it never to be seen again, so this'll be my art idea list for the time being! I've toyed around with the layout a bit and pushed what can be done with TH's basic editor, so I hope this bulletin's format is nice to look upon too.

Everything on this list is either personal work or ideas I've had with friends' OCs and it will constantly change as I complete things and get new ideas. No priority anywhere, just ideas if I get bored and need something to draw stress-free.

Needs redesign
Characters who already have a design that really badly needs to be redone.

Sane

Sane's design should match Levi's and get a lot more detail

Lyn

At the moment Lyn's design could work, but it doesn't. Definitely needs a redraw too 

The Doctor

There's something I'm really not happy about with his design.

I also replaced some icons with artwork made by others! For long I wanted to keep my style consistent, but the forums agree that my framing is enough to keep them generally consistent.

New character directory

Posted 7 years, 5 months ago by ElithianFox

The previous one messed up my TH page and gave me that one weird bug where editing text fields became ugly, so I'm reuploading it here in the hopes this one survives.


Now that I have over 100 characters, my character gallery is getting really cluttered and pretty damn hard to navigate through if you wanna find characters of a particular story or category. While I do have tags, I'm not sure how often they are used, so I've decided it's time to make a character directory where they're all grouped together by faction and where each faction is explained briefly, because even I can't make sense of it anymore otherwise. Plus it's nice to finally have a clear way to showcase how people belong to each other's groups.

Up to date as of the 9th of February 2018.

  

Total profiles: 116
Total characters: 128

  


The Guild


The Guild is a fighter's organisation situated in Kestane. They're best known for their practise of cutting off the tail of initiated members, persecuting hostile uses of magic, and fighting for the worldwide abolishment of slavery. Barring a few very rare cases, the Guild is a demon-based faction with a distaste of other species. 



The Main Guys
All unlucky souls who ended up buying into the Guild, these three
formed a close friendship threatened by radically different end goals
in each and every one of its members.



Garry Shilling

Archery Buds
One a Guild member and another a youngling
killing boredom with a new hobby.
   
LeviSane Marcera


Altari's Family
 Known as a more fierce bunch, this family settled down from hunting dragons to find a career in
the Guild. They haven't given up on their tradition yet, but with Helena and Rovares' pivotal
role in politics things have become a lot more grounded.

Rovares Altari

 La Resistance
Ever since the Guild's highly successful conception, imitators spawned
all over the west, often with terrible practices. Sameri's quest is to take them
all down, and he has made non-Guild allies to help him find revenge.
Sameri Ennar
Magali

The Thieving Duo
These two friends would be lone wolves if they
didn't get along as well as they did and are always
in competition with each other to be the best thief.

The Investigative Duo
Two of the Guild's most unusual members, these
mages work together with the Guild closely to
snuff out any potential mage infiltrators.

Mavomare College


As the largest learning institution in the world, the Mavomare College is very popular with scholars and mages from all over. It offers a vast array of courses in both the intellectual and the magical. They welcome their neighbours with open arms and have spread far beyond the borders of the Bloodlands they're situated in. They work together closely with the Bloodland military to keep the world a safe place.

 

 The Research Squad
 Each taking on a new direction with this job, these five managed to start up conduction of research behind several medical
issues, both large and small, to gain funding for a project to research a parasite that's been wreaking havoc the past years.
Seranet DelafeltaChiara CelvasAylaNeridan GorahZeanu

 

 The Antagonist Trio
 In science, funding is always scarce and it takes quite a bit of fighting
and proving your worth to get funded. These fellas? They aim to
collect a monopoly in research.

Justiciars and now works as an entitled

what he learned in his studies to take care of
Riley's horrible resistance issues.

Miscellaneous
These characters don't belong together, but they don't
belong to any other groups either so they get their
separate non-specific category.
Proskenion of MilosQuinn O'Neil

 


 


Gods


There are many, many gods and only a tiny fraction of them are demons, but the gods my focus is on are all but two demons. These once powerful mortals  ascended to greatness thanks to a very rare type of god magic, and whether it was was bestowed upon them or they had to work for it, it isn't always the easiest thing to work with.

 

The Christian Gods
All of the gods who spawned thanks to the actions of the first human god, who named himself God. These were
either his creations, his followers, or creations his own creations made.

Tomius FerenDamon FerenSatan Feren    God    Deimos

 

Meddling Brothers
Though they could easily be lumped into the Christian
category, they deserve a special category of their own.
Are they gods? Advisors? Parasites looking to seize
control the moment they get a chance? Even I
don't know.
Gravio AlexisDarius Alexis

 

The Guild Gods
Two mortals who worked to attain godhood,
these gods are said to be the founders of the
Guild.
TinKor

 

The Pagan God
More of a stand-alone god, the Pagan
god is a wolf who gained sentience by
creatively using the god powers that
sometimes manifest in animals.
Naceus

 

The Ocean God
 Once human, this god favoured the ocean and
chose it as her domain. She aids those lost at sea
and offers them a second chance with the
help of her servant Nordil.

The Independent


A grouping for all characters who don't fall in any of the other categories.

 

The Expedition
The Expedition is a four-man operation of several College and non-College members banding together to
conduct research in the enemy territories of Kestane. As a mix of mages and non-mages, they enter
dangerous territory, but anything for science, right?
The DoctorThe GeologistThe AlchemistThe Botanist

  

Arkalee Hunter's Order
The Arkalee Hunter's Order is a collection of the Dii Aldmare's most elite hunters
and trackers. It was started by an inexperienced hunter with money but quickly
attracted the attention of big names, and to this day is the go-to goal for any
hunter who wishes to prove themselves.
Etisi HuntsonLucaFré Sheppard


Old and New Friends
These folks have known each other since their childhood and decided that leaving behind bad people and
staying together was the best way to survive.
Seares MitneyLyn AranaStyllien TenatuAbescus KineRaeges Infiliren

 

The Wayward Pirate
 Although he settled down once to start a
family, that life simply wasn't enough to
mask the lure of the ocean.
Henry Kinsey


MERO
Otherwise known as the Mavomaruan Education and
Research Operation, these masked surgeons sacrifice
morality for the gain of medical knowledge.
 
Vinnie

 

Fighting Hell
Whether it's in the shape of finding a long lost sister or a literal torturous hell,
escaping it is the highest priority.
Alena PitvilKraye PitvilTamara

 

Lost Souls
One half dead, the other tormented by the
remnants that were sown to his soul and in
an endless search for a release.
Nelor DidenyaLux Didenya

 

Constricting Cold
It has been too long for Nathan to remember
who he was and where he came from. He only
knows two things: grab the living from the dark,
and do anything to stay warm.
Nathan

 

Sheep Herders
 What do you get when you combine a young explorer with a goat legged
sheep herder and his drake pet? Apparently this.
Markus M. LeonRemco MooreMr. Snuggles

 

Seekers of Heaven
Whether they're outcasts, devoted followers, or lost sheep, all of these
three are in search of Heaven in their own way.

Cafun LumiarMichaelPhinneas Lumiar

 

Heaven's Inhabitants
Though demons are allowed into the city of Heaven to strengthen bonds,
that still doesn't solve racism and poverty.
Tina CanteChris DeckerEmily Cante Decker

 

Travelling Light
If the people can't accept your talent
for magic that harms demons, it's better
to leave home in search of those who do.
Florence Warbler

 

Ancient Knowledge
Long training and friendship led to an unbreakable bond between
three very strong beings.

lad, they have shared a mentor-student bond in
chemical research and scientific advancement.

Mirrors

Mirrors are a variation of Livian Demons that, as their name suggests, mirror an existing Livian Demon in any way they possibly can. They live separate from their counterpart but can still observe their life as it goes on.

 

BernardDamon's MirrorLyreRa

 

 

 

Souls

 Much less of a faction and much more of a phenomenon, souls are the metaphorical manifestation of a sentient being's ability of cognitive processes and thinking. They are metaphorical because they have no actual physical appearance and are tied to one person, but they would be incomprehensible if without a physical representation.


Sweet Soul ChildAngry SoulDark Soul

 

 

 

Kassat Elves

The Kassat elves are a subspecies of humans who live segregated on their own islands, obsessively keeping the rest of the world out of their personal little paradise. Though they hope to make their islands the best place, the elves are divided and close to war at any time.

 

The Kadi Kassat
The Kadi are a dark skinned type of elf from the
most western island. They are generally the
smallest type and are very peaceful.
Neola RavisAntero Elavyn

 

The Boye Kassat
An olive skinned type of elf, the Boye
inhabit the largest northern island
and are fairly warfaring.
Elyra Shadespring

 

The Eld Kassat
Inhabitants of the smallest southern
island, the Eld are the tallest and
are known for their more
primitive ways and traditions. 
Luris of North

 

 

 

Beast People

The remnants of a spiritual purge that killed all humans and merged their souls with animal souls to make for hybrids many years ago. These beasts are as intelligent as any sentient humanoid would be, albeit with some degrees of sentience and intelligence.

 

Dragons
Known for their cruelty, dragons are the most prominent of beast people
and moved to the northern deserts to live on their own. They've been
at war with demons since the two species first met and are their
most typical slavers.

Bird folk
Beast people based on birds of all kinds, most of these possess fairly
high intelligence.

 True Elves
 Those skinny tall humans with their pointy ears merely
appropriated the term 'elf'. Everyone knows the primate
beast people are the true elves.
 
 The Elven High Lord

 

 Fursona Business
Having a fursona does not make one a furry;
it merely makes one aware of the current
hippest trends.
Ellie

 

 

 


The Academy 


Members of an entirely different story in an entirely different universe. Though it's still a huge WIP and is more fit for short stories than a longer one, this universe takes place in modern times where both humans and mythological creatures exist together. It has a regular school setting, you get the gist.

 

The Main Guys
 For the main characters of this story, I know
surprisingly little about them.
  
CorSeth

 

America's Best Power Couple
 It's a horrible fire hazard, but in this scary new world
they were thrown into these two friends of Cor and
Seth find comfort in each other.
  
Quentin De ClayreAndreas Petrovic 

 

Andreas' Parents
They barely even have a role in the story but they
sure are fun to play around with.

Miscellaneous


 AU Characters

Any characters solely made for the purpose of an alternate universe based on already existing character, or characters who only exist in an alternate universe away from the main story.

Modern Human AU
An AU where the main story takes place in an alternate version of Belgium
and everyone's a human.

NaProWriMo!

Posted 7 years, 6 months ago by ElithianFox

Aka NaNoWriMo for people who don't have time to write a 50k long novel in a month

 

I'll be taking on an alternative challenge by Isoprene, where the goal is to write or rewrite a character profile every day for the entire month of November. Technically speaking there's no word count involved in this and making 30 profiles accounts for the 50k words, but I'll still try to get an average wordcount of 1667 words per profile anyway!

Won't be uploading everything I type to the online profiles, though, due to spoilers and insecurity about my own writing and stuff, but I will update this bulletin with the total word count I managed to get for every particular profile on that day! Let's hope I can reach 1667 per day, but knowing my tendency to blabber on and on in backstories that shouldn't be a problem ;)

 

Profiles I'll (re)write

1. Kraye (2628 words)
2. Cafun (1494 words)
3. Wes (1538 words)
4. Alena (2105 words)
5. Francis (1068 words)
6. Remco (1804 words)
7. Nathan (2489 words)
8. Sane
9. Neridan (2185 words)
10. Fré (513 words)
11. Gravio
12. Kari
13. Kor
14. Quinn
15. Travis
16. Seares
17. Helena
18. Tin
19. Mortimer
20. Benethel
21. Tina
22. Etisi
23. Henry
24. Luca
25. Levi
26. Riley
27. Markus
28. Blaine
29. Chris
30. Epheil

 

Either way, wish me luck because this is gonna drain what small part of my soul uni didn't already right out of my body.

I've added pronunciation

Posted 7 years, 8 months ago by ElithianFox

Now you actually know how to pronounce my characters' weird ass names!

Do keep in mind that as I'm a Flemish person, they're intended to be pronounced with a Flemish tongue as well. That means soft g's and rolling r's unless the name is obviously English. If I didn't add any notes to pronunciation on a character's profile that means it's read exactly as it's written and in English.

Which one of my characters would you like to know more about? Maybe you've questions about someone?

 

I know I tend to just drop off a oneshot picture of a character and then rarely draw them again, but I still keep developing them afterwards! But I can imagine that it gets fairly confusing not to see more of them in artwork. So hence this bulletin; I want to hear who you guys are interested in and talk about them!

You can find my characters in my DeviantART gallery or in my TH gallery, in the latter either in their character list or in the most to least finished character profile list. If you ask for a character I'll tell you more about them and I'll make an effort to update their TH profile as well while we're at it.

Tons of art

Posted 7 years, 9 months ago by ElithianFox

Yesterday I started naming my commissioned art files a decent name and because of that, I've been checking if I uploaded all art to my characters' profiles. And lo and behold, I forgot a ton!

Sorry to everyone whose art I forgot to upload earlier lD

Oh, also, if you happen to know if any of the artists credited have a TH account, that'd be cool! It's always neater to credit on-site.

Some updates

Posted 7 years, 9 months ago by ElithianFox

Hey everyone!

 

There's been a couple of updates around here. First off, I made a character directory where all of my characters are grouped per faction and per clique, so if you wanna know more about which characters belong together and in which context they belong go check it out! Secondly, I also updated my profile status list to have icons. Much easier to navigate now!

In terms of character profiles there will be a change as well. I've decided that Florence's profile will be the way I'll structure all of my profiles. I'm still optimising it, so any feedback would be useful! I'm also gonna put an effort into typing out a summary section like I did for Florence for every single character, developed or not, but that's more of a long term project than anything else.

Also, I needed that long-ass character directory bulletin off my page lmao

Complete character directory

Posted 7 years, 9 months ago by ElithianFox

This directory has moved! You can now find it here.

I'm making pretty cheap customs

Posted 7 years, 10 months ago by ElithianFox

The prices range from $2,80 to $8,30 depending on things like level of detail and shading.

All info can be found here! Feel free to comment here or PM me if you're interested.
