Preface
thanks to my dear bud SphereMint, i get to have something of a stomping grounds for character writing! as for what you can expect from me, i am especially partial towards fantasy writing. in fact, the one thing inspiring my writing the most these days are the games Final Fantasy XIV and the fire emblem series. as such, you can expect a lot of that from me. most likely, you'll be seeing a lot of OCs for my personal project, Friend Emblem: Vainglory (add a link to that here later). starting out three years ago, this was originally a DnD-centric fire emblem experience that i shared with friends. over time though, this creative project of mine really took shape, and is now growing to have its own fully-fledged story, working off of the groundwork laid by Fire Emblem Fates.
Disclaimer
Given the nature of Friend Emblem: Vainglory, I must emphasize that most of my character "artwork" that I have is entirely derivative. I have no artistic abilities myself, but my editing abilities in software such as Photopea make up for it. Most of the character designs you will see for Friend Emblem are created out of pre-existing work from Toshiyuki Kusakihara Yūsuke Kozaki, the artist behind Fire Emblem Fates. Given that, all credit for what I started with for these portraits comes from him. In some more fringe cases, other resources I use for some portraits includes fanart/fan-based portraits, or fan-upscaled portraits edited together. It is a big to-do of mine to get to crediting these sources that I have utilized, but that is a task that I have yet to really undertake. If you recognize any of your work used in my portraits, please let me know and I'd be happy to arrange things in a way that is suitable for both you and me.
that all aside, i hope you can enjoy what i've left lying around here! this project means a lot to me, and i hope you might find it fascinating as well. :)
