This is a very good day to find your nearest "Buff But Chunky Nerd" and give them a nice big hug.
And uh...*fixes his tie*...maybe get him a donut or two?
Posts by Lee -- A Normal Sized Coyote
Heath is one of my OCs who has a Fantasy Alt "design" in my head. He'd actually be the party craftsman. Tailor, primarily, but handy in all sorts of different trades, rather than a proper adventuring class.
Ostensibly, he'd be a Bard, though with less of a focus on song and more focus on words.

Got all the Stellar Tools, time to work on the Hyper Tools.
... ... ...wait, I gotta do HOW MANY CRAFTING MISSIONS for the first one?!
There's a new meme going around asking to post a character that starts with "H".
...I'm not going to post this there (since the meme wants a character in mass media, ha), but...
Heath.
(Buff skunk done by @tacorat.com. Heath is one of my OCs who's on a tier just below Lee and Zack in "use".)
Related, but it's why I'm (again, personally) not a fan of hypnosis or mind control kinks. I value agency and personal choice such that I can't find the lack of choice sexy.
4/20...
You know, thinking about it, most of my characters don't partake in controlled substances. Most some of them do is drink, and none of them smoke. Makes them sound kinda...plain, but for personal reasons I've always felt uncomfortable imbibing in anything that can affect the mind.
Has anyone created a horse anthro painter OC named Bob Hoss?
I doubt it. The actual artist isn't much of a neigh-sayer.

Made a kaiju size plate of KATSU CURRY on stream tonight (and a not so kaiju sized one for the BOYF), huge thanks to everyone that pulled up! I had a lotta fun, WHOA! ๐๐ช๐ฅ๐โค๏ธ
Just wanted to share some of my thoughts. Thought some folks might enjoy, ha.
I've got basic fantasy ideas for all my OCs, some more developed than others. It's nice to nerd out about it sometimes.
In my "OC Proto-Adventuring Party", Lee and Zack would form the backbone. Zack, frontline support. Lee, backline support. Zack, the face. Lee, the brains (academic, again, I try not to make any of my characters explicitly "dumb").
In "universe", Zack would be Lee's bodyguard on field missions.
This led me to settle on the (very tentatively named) class of "Skald". A big frontline figher with a big axe, who inspires his fellow adventurers through word and action (performance). A "health tank" who's not as heavily armored, who provides frontline support.
Fire spells would also be involved.
Since I've gotten Lee's fantasy class pretty well thought out, I'm now trying to think up a good idea for Zack.
I've had two mental images for Fantasy Zack. The primary one is based on both of my MMO Warriors: a big frontliner with a big axe.
The secondary is bard; plays into love of performing.
I think...the pendulum has finally swung far enough in the other direction, that it's time for a change in mood...
One of my down-the-line comm ideas is to get like...Lee and friends' OCs done up like an adventuring party. Something cute and pleasant and not outright risque, ha.
Submitted. I'll be happy with whoever the artist chooses, because I always love seeing their work. But I've wanted to see their take on Fantasy Lee for so long. I normally don't get anxious with comm pitches, but I am this time.
References, please disregard if not artist. ^^;;
A piece for @wuskythehusky.bsky.social who reminds me of the little beautiful things, and who I hope to one day teach what a kilometer is
Happy Dutch-American Friendship Day!
Buff-Chonk academic adventurer coyote seeking adventuring party to explore ancient ruins and find artifacts. Or maybe explore a mysterious forest for arcane reagents.

WHO WOULD WANT AN EMOTE OF LEE'S BOOTY--y'know, actually, I say that, but I imagine there's more than a few of y'all who'd be down for that..
<3
I should start looking into getting emotes...
AND DON'T SAY I SHOULD GET A BELLY EMOTE.
... ... ...it's already on the list...
Thanks for joining for the short stream folks. According to chat, FF14 looked a lot better on stream today, so maybe the settings are working? I'll add the game to my rotation again.
Since its still Bat Appreciation Day I figured I'd highlight my flapflaps, who are damn near polar opposites I'm now realizing.
There's Gabber, a cheery sweetie who DJs as a profession
And Legrand, a lanky barbarian who is constantly bitter and aggressively French
The theme for my streams for the next little while is "Quality Improvement".
Late night test stream doing some FF14 crafting. It'll be a very low energy, chill, and...possibly boring stream when I do low impact work while adjusting settings.
Starting In Media Res.

Phaenna is going by a lot faster than Sinus Ardorum. I've already got 2/11 of the Stellar (next stage) Tools.
A shame, the chill music playing on this planet is real soothing. I'm gonna hate leaving it.
I feel like posting the earliest depiction of Fantasy Lee, done but @sugarboy.bsky.social, which I still love.
Originally, I made Fantasy Lee an alchemist, but I've since broadened his fantasy class into "Academic", encompassing all studies of science, magic, culture, and other scholarly research.
Feeling some comm anxiety. I want to send an artist an idea for Fantasy Lee, but it might be too involved and I'm worried they may want to keep things simple. I could fall back on Fancy ideas, because that's pure "me", but what if that's too boring?
I'm making myself worried for no reason.
