To those who advise me to use chatgpt to generate the lore, you are forgetting how cool it is to be handwriting it in a cafe

The masked giant turned away then it speech finished its deep blue bulk, leather or clothlike, rippled and heaved down the lapis tunnel that stretched from the tower above like a root soon after, the Uljana came, hurrying they were afraid they never dared speak to their creations

"auq" as the volkite suffix from their earthscript "to flow" from arabic tadafuq, then using Ar and Vor to qualify it (just example of mini language-distorting)

struggling

going back through and adding names to all the current traits / abilities, realized it was too rich a flavor-vein to ignore (and adds the fun task of coming up with vague composite / abbreviated words)

testing the dodge limit

how DARE I share a link to a social media platform on my YouTube account. The Horror!! Classic case of "I think that is a you problem mate"

We speak of Volgun, who stood with Volganna in the screaming smoke of the tunnel-path Agra stood third behind and beside them To die is to give way to the other In the burnt stone of the earth there is no other but Wajah

spreading the golden waste

a ridiculous amount of prefix stacking via upgrades is something I want to carry over from the warcraft 3 map

adoption ritual for the valr deathriders

In his hand, the wind-wheel, the names of the four winds upon it — Red, Blue, Yellow, Black — names of gore-drunk war, bloom-smell, of cold-tearing, of death and the scentless fog of the eastward rim — Each excludes the other, and in exclusion begets the other

plodding through UI (a starting select screen, hoverable stuff) with welcome shifts into making icons and adding abilities

Behold the flash of the rider, the arc of bronze, red caped, the muzzled, bristling beast, whose tusks gore the enemy — I sing for thy horde, Angstranna, who raises no temple, no tower, no tilting palisade, against the red wind that haunts thee, wrathful Ang, the divine shockwave

another day with lines buttons and screens

in the middle of testing and it generated the exact flavor name, had to take note (I guess the death cult element kind of deviates though)

Here's today's #fantasticaluniquities poster! This is the first one where the finished work looks just like I was envisaging it in the initial concept. Art credits: @perplexingruins.bsky.social Fonts: Barrio, Dominatrix.

accidentally cut my hand open with a sword...a little bloodletting to anoint 2026

a zealot in the dark

doing some more embodiment for the struggler faction, creating trait frameworks that could produce some more flavorful side-games such as killing these nightbeasts and void / demon enemies in general

2026 will be the year of the crest

another layer of embodiment for the excorite, named, running amok in the generated world

a lot of the time I have no idea what the drawings are supposed to be so they act as writing prompts
