like imagine crafting! want some armor? well this room loop only has lounges so get some chair leather! want some food? well since you’re in an abandoned places loop you can crack open the floorboards and get some rats (yum)! need a weapon? find the nearest rod like object and nearest approximant to a spike. want a shelter? well than let me show you the wonders of carpet!

imagine a fully open world, liminal space crafting survival game. like you can travel the world, build, and craft but you have to get all the resources from an endless loop of this nonsense:

i just think that would be neat.

okay so inscryption is a game i really enjoy so decided to come up with a custom mechanic for it! (I have an idea for a scrybe that uses these cards, but they aren’t done yet). So, without further to do, tension!

all tension cards are seemingly “free” in that they can be played immediately but have a cost of 1-4. if the cost of all cards on your side of the board is over 4, you shall take the excess number of tension points as damage to all of your cards. 

your side deck is full of various mechanical cards that aid in tension management such as “tension jars” that increase the maximum. 

a 1-cost card would be like a squirrel or empty vessel, maybe a skunk. a 2-cost card would be like a stoat. a 3-cost card would be like a wolf, and a 4-cost card would be like a bear. this means that to play a four damage card, you must leave every other lane open.

let me know what you think!

hey there, you've arrived at a Tumblr checkpoint!

I choose to believe that the reason the Angler is called Fishbot in Act 3 is that P03 asked him his name, and the Angler either called him ‘bad fish/bad robot fish’ or told him to 'go fish’ or just mumbled 'fish’ as he sometimes does, and P03 just heard 'fish’ and assumed that was his name and slapped it on the card because of it

hey man it's okay don't cry i'm sorry i managed to escape all your traps but i thought they were really cool and scary honestly... and like, they were literally so challenging and well constructed, i barely made it out alive you did a really good job... look, i can go back and do it again and get caught and killed in one this time if it'll make you feel better. i just don't want you to be upset about it..

My spouse and I just had one of those “wait your brain works HOW?” exchanges, and now I am BURNING TO KNOW HOW IT WORKS FOR OTHER PEOPLE:

Fellow speakers of this feral bastard language (English), rb and tell me in the tags: what is the delineation for you, if any, between evening and night?

hello! my store is re-opening april 8th!! 

yknow ever since people realized tumblr isnt dead and have decided to flock here from twitter and tiktok ive seen a huge influx of people in fandom spaces who dont reblog anything. at all.

like, i used to have an art blog with 340 followers. not a ton but not a small amount either given how this website works with creators. and in my experience back then even the ones who only left likes still reblogged other things or at least posted their own stuff. literally the only empty blogs were clearly bots.

but on this New art blog, i've had so many people with fandom-specific headers and icons with actual usernames as urls and some kind of title or description, but have. Nothing. no posts. all they do is like things. and it's always public, too. their following list and their likes list.

and honestly all it makes me think is that these people are New and also don't know how tumblr works. how likes don't give exposure. not even in a "oh, i know it doesn't give exposure, but i'm still going to reblog anyways" way, but in a genuine honest to god straight up doesn't realize tumblr likes don't work like twitter's.

PLEASE please if you're from tiktok or twitter or whatever please reblog people's art both fandom and original if you like it!! and maybe actually pad out your blog's content in some way so people won't potentially see you as a bot and block you.

REBLOG ARTIST'S WORK. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THEY GET ANY ATTENTION ON THIS WEBSITE OH MY GOD. PLEASE. I BEG of you

more worldbuilding time.

outsiders as I said are magic in a mundane world, but in appearance they look almost human. (After all, they have to look SOMETHING like the creatures in the rest of the heresy). they all have some sort of human form, with a distinctly unique inhuman trait such as mushrooms growing out of them, fire like eyes, or devil horns. due to the inherent dangers of their magic, they often only form smaller towns or villages with many choosing to be completely alone.

insiders are monstrous in appearance but lack the variety or magic you would expect from monsters or darkners. while a monster may range from a loox to a moldsmal, an insider will always appear as a goat, rabbit, deer, or squirrel. believing in strength by numbers, they form sprawling civilizations without borders.

did this while thinking about the multiverse implications of deltarune. Outsiders(left) live in The Heresy, a location similar to earth, but the outsiders themselves are more akin to darkners or monsters. Insiders(right) are human-esque but live in a world of magic known as The Home.

more stuff on her cards, aesthetic, and more!

they are made by predictions, any time a prediction in her notebook turns out to be true a tarot card-esque incryption card is made. these usually manifest as humanoids with a few exceptions, but rarer cards become more and more outlandish until it is basically those rings of fire and eyeballs angels. despite this, many still keep to human titles for names even past the point of the card being recognizably human.

due to their nature, they logically shouldn’t be able to trap people in cards, but I guess if P03 can figure out how to inscribe a mage and fisherman in a CTRL+C machine for bots, then I can just handwave that.

her temple aesthetic is a bit akin to that of liminal spaces. in the 2nd act, her bunker will have puzzle rooms that appear to be recreations of various places both in-game and outside of it, but glaringly empty and off putting. in her own act, these are kept the same, now even more disturbing in a 3D environment where more details SHOULD appear but don’t. the rest of her bunker, however, is exactly the kind of normal dreary metal place you would expect to have that name.

She is a nuisance but isn’t really enough of a planner to have a grand evil scheme like the others; The first thing she does is create a backup of her game on the main computer so her act can be replayed endlessly (even after the disk’s deletion, like K mod), but beyond that doesn’t have a clue what she could achieve with such power.

Dallyrim, Scrybe of Prophecy

So, I’ve seen a lot of really cool OCs and this is the first fandom I’ve been “early”-ish too, so here’s an Inscryption oc! (Sorry for odd spacing or grammar, it was written in notepad).

GENERAL

-she can “predict” things in a more vaugue sense, she has no future sight but is analytical enough to guess major events. this is on a human skill level.

 -she loves fantastical stories as she cannot predict them and are her main comfort when things go wrong.

-is excited about the prospect of a challenger but will still be able to play with the other scrybes regardless. she is perhaps the only scrybe to actively duel other scrybes.

-acts like an adult for the most part, but absolute idiot when it comes to responsibility, humility or politeness.

-got turned into a sheep in Leshy’s act, with the “frantic” sigil that makes it move into any empty space it can, and the “softer” sigil that automatically blocks all damage under three. you would find her card wedged in the doorframe after all tutorial deaths are complete. Leshy does not recall putting her there.

RELATIONS

-friendship with Leshy: good-ish. they both love storytelling but Leshy more thinks of her as “the weird cryptid that appears at the dead of night in the corner of my eye, just to ask for a card battle”. He appreciates being able to play with somebody but would prefer a person with basic manners and respect.

-friendship with Magnificus: horrible. She doesn’t like Mag because of how entitled and prick-ish he acts. Mag doesn’t like her because he is 45% sure she is a challenger playing a prank, 95% sure that the bunker isn’t real and accepting the “birthday party” invitation will end disastrously, and 99.99% sure that she should leave if she is going to whine at every loss.

-friendship with Grimora: act like old friends. Grimora is pretty used to people appearing from nowhere being the scrybe of the dead and all.

-friendship with P03: tolerable. P03 likes to flex his card skills without too much small talk, and she can be somewhat decent at that if it means getting to play.

CARDS her card’s mechanics can be found here: https://www.tumblr.com/blog/view/kyoshi-with-a-gun/673875112536178688 though they need some tweaks.

HER TEMPLE -she has no subordinates in her bunker and will instead fight you four times. to initiate each combat round, you must collect a key hidden in/around the bunker map.

-in the first fight, she will simply play tension cards.

-in the second fight, she will modify which cards she is going to play depending on the cards on your side.

-in the third fight, she does the same but with stronger cards, relying heavily on sigils.

-in the fourth fight, she will repeat fight number three with more difficulty in round 1, but then use her notebook to predict your actions. from then on, if you attack a space that she thinks you will, she will generate a tension card equal to the damage count.

-without subordinates, she would instead use Leshy, Grimora, and finally the Challenger for bosses in an act.

-after gaining power, she would make Leshy and Grimora cards by writing a prediction of them dying, then delete the mage tower and bridge to the eastern areas. Leshy would be the hunter, and Grimora the High Priestess. she would let you physically travel the islands, and even reward you for your discoveries.

-P03 would be alive as well but left to his/its own devices.

-would actually talk to the Grimora and Leshy cards and let Leshy help with the story but cannot comprehend the reason that her taking power is so bad since it is the exact same thing that Leshy did.

let me know what you think!
