Thanks! I really tried with the coloring, but got a little ‘Eehhhhhhhh’ with the blending of the fur, haha. And I made sure to get confirmation from Hush in the coloring! (I’m ninety percent sure.. I’ll be very apologetic if I got it wrong .m.)

It's alright!! I'm probably going to be the apologetic one! Anyways I'm going to be zoned in on Dammion's form for the rest of the night. Will update here once I have it up!

Oh! Speaking of forms. Hawkeyes! I finished up with that banker character I mentioned, and just wanted to ask if having a jaguar shifter would be alright?

I am genuinely so tired argh I may have to edit Dammion's form tomorrow. I don't have all that much to do but it's tiring getting it down from my brain and typing it up. I have the personality section and background to complete. I'm going to leave it up for you all to read but keep in mind things are unfinished!

Yooo he looks amazing!! ✨️ The pose is so natural, and your background is a great touch! His ginger really stands out against the wintry colors! <3 I love that you added some fluffiness to his fur too!
xD Lazz- sorry about that! It's a logical conclusion to make lol In short, Anya was the only one who got the lack of pigment mutation.

I put my utmost effort into the shaping, and the pose! I’m glad you like it, Hush(:

Had a really interesting idea about Javalle commenting on Dammion's character once the hunter arc wraps up! I'm already thinking way ahead of things why is my brain like this. I had like a big speech in mind filled with symbolism and speculation. Watch me lose it all in my head once I wake up.

Mmm, perhaps. Trying not to give too much away so I'll spoiler this I figure Javalle and Jack could be talking things through once they get out of being captured (if that's the scenario we're going for) and Javalle reminisces on his Canadian heritage and tells Jack or whoever on a mythical tale he was told in his youth about a cryptid meant to scare kids away from the forest at night. He noted that Dammion reminded him of this cryptid, even though he tried to stop the shifters, but in doing so, he ended up becoming a symbolic monster himself. That's where I'm ending off for now. I'd like to hear theories on this little snippet, but I won't confirm or deny anything.

I absolutely love this idea if this is the route that you guys end up going down! I’ll theorize and think away for a while, and write up a few extra ideas if you’d ever like me to!

Anytime! I love reading what you have to say; your theories and ideas are always welcome! I have a really strict plan I want to stick to in order to develop Dammion, but new opinions on the board spark my creative energy. Having a blast writing these stories! I'm actually planning to center my next art project around werewolves. This rp may be responsible for that

Heya Hawkeyes! Whenever you’re able to ponder this, haha. I was wondering where you think witches and warlocks draw from to use magic? Like, is it a whole separate force, like an ‘arcane’ per se, or something else? Or is a witch just naturally born with magic? Just a bit curious, since I’m writing a little thing up for witch lore, and I’m wondering if others besides witches are able to do magic, and if witches just have a particular connection or? Sorry for all these questions, I just wanna clarify some stuff, haha ^^

Mmm good question, I would have to think about it tbh. There is def magic everywhere if you know where to look. What I will say is Griffindale has a ton of magic everywhere.
Some are born with magic and others can learn if they have the gift to do so. There is a separate force where Witches/Warlarks can tap into to absorb/use magic. I hoped this helped sort of combined some of your questions and we can change anything if we need too.

That sounds great! I’m thinking witches might have a strong connection to nature?
And I’m a bit curious! Since witches are born able to do magic, what makes it so people who aren’t witches can have magic?

Post by Hawkeyes258 on Jan 13, 2024 20:01:23 GMT -5
I think every so often someone is born with the gift for using magic even if no one else in their family lines has ever done it. Or we could say magic chooses people based on diff factors.
I hope that makes some kind of sense.

Post by soot on Jan 14, 2024 0:58:23 GMT -5
Definitely makes sense! It balances it out some that others besides witches can have magic as well. Thank you for the info, Hawk! I’ll keep it in my currently scattered brain for my witch and warlock lore! If there’s any specific ideas for witches you have implemented, it’d be cool to hear if you’re ever up for it! I’ve got a bunch of random ideas I’m sorting through in my head, haha.)

Thoughts on this idea: So the land of Griffindale is magical in itself but I've had this idea of maybe there is a underground cavern underneath the town and there rests like a really powerful magical item or items. Or like a tomb for some powerful creature like an ancient demon or vampire lord.

I can definitely see the town using it as somewhat of a tourist thing. Like the souvenir shops have werewolf themed things and “mystical items” to play into the magical feel of the town, kinda like what Salem, Massachusetts does, while being completely unaware of the underground society going on within.

THAT SOUNDS SO FUN!! I like to think Javalle is a bit of a hipster and is a regular at the stores selling mythical items like dreamcatchers or some of those little chakra bead bracelets. He probably has a Zen garden lying around somewhere-

Post by soot on Jan 15, 2024 2:04:22 GMT -5
That sounds great! And ooOOo~ I’m curious what you might think of to have under the town!
And the tourist attractions would make for some very entertaining conversations with the locals compared to travelers, haha. The library would be a good spot for that as well! Maybe they do a little story time of the ‘rumors’ or the towns past or something?
And yes! I can totally imagine that on Javalle!

Oh wait, I believed Adeline had said something about there being depictions of werewolf statues (or something else, can't remember what) at the library before, I might have Javalle mention that to Jack sometime...
Also the whole superstitious stuff would be incredibly fun to mess around with if there was an event for Halloween!

This is mainly a question for Hawkeyes, but does anyone have any further ideas for how wolfsbane can work in this universe? My notes inside my brain says it's used to force shifters to transform and keeps them in their creature forms permanently in more extreme cases (such as soot's sample story)
Want to make sure I got everything right before I go too crazy with anything. I haven't forgotten Dammion's form but I feel a little demotivated to get it updated.
