If needed, I'll make a poll that allows us to vote for an idea together. The poll would also double as an interest check if people are open to an art countdown. I would like to make the 8th Anniversary an exciting time. An 8th Anniversary for a game where "eight" is important only comes once!

Looking for activities like daily questions or a series wide countdown (whether submitted art or official splash art with a vote). I'm only one person and can only think of so many ideas on my own, but the Octopath fanbase is very creative, so if you have an idea, please let me know!

Looking for opinions, since I never organized any form of lead up to the 3rd Anniversary for OT2 (the countdown's activity has lowered), is there any suggestions for activities to lead up to the OT1/series' 8th Anniversary that I should host before posting the Claim-And-Draw and OT1's face focus?

#PPAOpenTraveler Additionally, Rocbouquet has a Costume, the Costume being based around her second form. #OctopathTraveler #OctopathCotC #RomancingSaGa2 #RevengeOfTheSeven

Happy 5th anniversary Lyummis! Its crazy to think its been 5 years now! I was drawn to her from the moment she was revealed. And to this day she still holds a special place in my heart for how impactful her story was! By far one of their best written characters! #オクトラ大陸の覇者 #OctopathCotC #大陸の覇者アート

Since it's OT2's Anniversary, here's a quick bump to the series' 8th Anniversary Claim-And-Draw collab. Throné and Agnea are still up to be claimed! Aside from those two, there are still several characters to be claimed! #OctopathTraveler #OctopathCotC #OctopathTraveler0 #OctopathTraveler2

It appears I forgot to list the artists for the EX Job line in the Alt Text! Here are the artists for it: EX Ochette (Wynaut), EX Castti (ScheloftheSea), EX Osvald (Zoom), EX Partitio (magic_on_a_whim), EX Agnea (krizeros), and EX Hikari (fantaseagal) My apologies for the slip-up!

HAPPY 3rd ANNIVERSARY to #オクトパストラベラー2 / #OctopathTraveler2 I put together a new version of the "Face Focus" previews featuring Travelers in OT2 and CotC that have connections to Solistia! Including the OT2 Travelers, Side Solistia, EX Jobs, Twin World, and more! #OctopathTraveler #OctopathCotC

4 DAYS until this Eight Day #PPAPrompt is over! The choices are Alrond, Nivelle, Madelaine, and Sunny! #OctopathTraveler #OctopathCotC #OctopathTraveler2

Happy 3rd Anniversary to #オクトパストラベラー2 / #OctopathTraveler2 The third anniversary already! Sometimes, it still feels like this game was announced only a year ago. The Travelers of OT2 are definitely different spins on the typical job tropes, and that is what makes them unique! #OctopathTraveler

#PPAOpenTraveler - Noel NOTES: - I do not have his clear Path Action yet, I will send it when I do! - The design is based on the original design for Noel, not the remake. #OctopathTraveler #OctopathCotC #RomancingSaGa2 #RevengeOfTheSeven

#PPAOpenTraveler - Rocbouquet NOTES: - I do not have her clear Path Action yet, I will send it when I do! - The design is based on the original design for Rocbouquet, not the remake. #OctopathTraveler #OctopathCotC #RomancingSaGa2 #RevengeOfTheSeven

I've already told you all about them, but these are my cats! Tiziano, or Tizi for short, will be 4 years old this March ironically around the same time I met Tiziano from CotC in the old 2019 CBT demo! Sofia's a December cat, and she's currently 3 years old. Sofia's favourite thing is her Tuna!

Happy Cat day!! This is my cat Skyla or Sky for short ! She'll be 8 years old this year and always makes my day! ❤️

Happy Cat Day!! 🐈 From Project Path Action! February 22nd is Cat Day in Japan! Since posting the cards from last year, we have gotten Aviete and Feintz playable in #OctopathCotC That said, we're posting Feintz and Aviete's updated cards for this year. The rest below are still valid!

There is 140 days left until July 10th, as well as when the art submit form closes, so there is plenty of time to participate in the Claim-And-Draw! I hope we can manage to complete all the characters and more in the spreadsheet.

The Art Submit Form for the 8th Anniversary is now OPEN! Submit your finished characters in the link below! LINK: forms.gle/hRz46kR6d1pD... More characters can be claimed as characters are finished, more info in the ALT Text. #OctopathTraveler #OctopathCotC #OctopathTraveler0 #OctopathTraveler2

I drew Kouren for this 8 day! I was struggling to come up with a fitting pose when I thought to draw him with Kojiro. I always enjoy it when the quests to get new Keepers feature other characters!

Tressa isn't my favorite, but I respect her power as the runelord queen

EIGHT DAY #PPAPrompt! 🐙🎨 Time: February 18th - February 28th Characters are randomly chosen, this time it's: Alrond, Nivelle, Madelaine, and Sunny I look forward to seeing who you choose! #OctopathTraveler #OctopathCotC #OctopathTraveler2

In about 12 hours, more Traveler(s) are to be announced in an OctoRadio Show. CotC (JP) is still in its #RomancingSaGa2 collaboration, so it's expected should Traveler(s) come from it. If you are interested in the SaGa series, let me know what characters you would like to see or maybe even draw!

1 DAY until this Eight Day #PPAPrompt is over! The choices are Tressa, Kouren, Lolo, and Peredir! #OctopathTraveler #OctopathCotC #OctopathTraveler2

Today's the Lunar New Year, so here's a quick reshare to the these New Year cards featuring some horse-themed Travelers! Happy Lunar New Year, everyone! #OctopathTraveler #OctopathCotC #OctopathTraveler0 #OctopathTraveler2

Bump for the preview templates in case you missed them! I will email them out tomorrow! On February 20th, I will open up the art submit form for artists who work fast!

Two of them ❤️🐑🐑 (Solon is my favorite Guardian, and Keith did a great job with his English voice. I remember seeing that one NPC in Sunshade before going through the story bit like “me too, girl,” and, well… here I am with Solon as my only Guardian I have pulled so far)
