It’s been a lot of fun following @sm-baby's Carnival!AU, there are so many little details and seeing everyone trying to figure out the hints regarding the lore has been really interesting. I hummed and hawed for a long time, going over Grif’s traits and the things he likes, trying to figure out what his role in the Carnival would be. It wasn’t until it was revealed that Caine liked musicals that it hit me, Grif enjoys singing, a karaoke theme would be perfect for him, and it means he can geek out with Caine and Gangle about musicals!

More information about Carnival!Grif under the cut.

-He is still a plush gryphon, but he’s a lot bigger than he used to be. His wings are also larger and have more “feathers”.

While Grif is still grey, the fabric he’s made from is slightly iridescent, giving him a more silver appearance in certain lights.

The minky of his wings has glittery silver thread woven through it, when light catches them he seems to sparkle.

The green of his eyes is also now metallic.

Grif’s collar is a little white band with a metallic green bow tie sewn onto it.

When standing on all fours, he is taller than Carnival!Pomni, but shorter than Carnival!Ragatha. When rearing on his hind legs, he's almost as tall as Carnival!Zooble.

-Grif’s level is based around karaoke. Not only do you have to sing the correct lyrics at the right time, but you also have to try and match the correct pitch too.

There would be multiple levels to his game, with the song choices changing to be more difficult to sing as you progress through the levels.

Grif has a wide range of music available for a player to pick from, but you better be careful with what you pick, choose a song that is out of your singing range, and you are doomed to failure.

You can earn bonus points by performing while you sing, provided it doesn’t negatively affect how you sound. Grif loves theatrics and people being dramatic with their performances.

I don’t know if it would be feasible to have a multiplayer option for duets and such, I think the Carnival game is supposed to be single player, right? But I want it to be an option because Caine and Pomni singing a duet together would be cute.

-Though Grif is strict with how songs are sung during his game, outside of it Grif loves it when people experiment with music, remixes, acapellas, parody songs, he loves them all. He especially loves it when someone doesn’t try and force themselves to sing a song in a range they don’t have, and instead sings it in a way that actually works for them.

-Relationship with other cast members:

Likes Gangle and Caine (absolutely helps with the music for Gangle’s plays, and will happily perform in any musicals she puts on. And Caine is a theatre nerd, I imagine he’d be pretty good at Grif’s game).

Dislikes Jax (I imagine Jax finds ways to be disruptive when Grif is singing, which Grif hates).

Neutral with everyone else (unless any of the others also enjoy singing and are good at it, in which case they’d be in the like category).

-I think that Kinger's nickname for Grif would be Cricket, because both crickets and Grif sing!

i thought too hard about insect motifs got a little silly and made... a lot lmao these versions of the characters are from @sm-baby's amazing digital carnival au!! full images and rambling about insect choices are gonna get stuck under the cut... it'll be a bit long and i will be putting photos of real bugs down there so be mindful

pomni: "butterfly"

inspirational species are black swallowtails mostly for the shape, and malay red harlequins mostly for the pattern

carnival pomni's actually the one that kickstarted this whole set... i drew her hat in a way that reminded me of butterflies, went "wait...", then i fully leaned into it :)

jax: "centipede"

there was no specific species for jax. without being able to use color, they were too similar to pick any out... i have included a giant centipede just for reference though since it was mainly larger centipedes i used for inspiration

anddd there's a little bonus sketch for how pre-sentience jax might've looked with a centipede outfit... he gets a bug scarf and some goggles!

ragatha: "ladybug"

inspirational species was the twice-stabbed ladybug chosen because the inverted color scheme looked the best out of all the ones i tried, and also because it's a metal name and we know ragatha's good with a knife... stabby stab... i did add more than two spots to the dress though, it just looks cooler lol

gangle: "spider"

inspiration was the spinybacked orb weaver which i was absolutely ecstatic to find because come on that is the perfect spider for gangle like look at it!! it looks like her mask, it's got red, it's got gold on the limbs, literally twinning

zooble: "mantis"

inspiration was the spiny flower mantis which, like with gangle, i feel is pretty much perfect for zooble... they come in many colors (including pink), have abstract patterns, and it gave me the excuse to cover zooble in spikes :D fun

and no kaufmo because i'm lazy and he's dead (sorry kaufmo fans but am i wrong), and the rest don't have bug names that i know of?

i still want to draw the carnival characters in their regular looks sometime, i just got really really inspired by the idea of secret skins and bug-themed outfits and went a liiittle haywire :P

anyways if you read all that you're a real one and you've got too much time on your hands... if you didn't, i understand, i get wordy, sorry :'D okay i think that's all byeee
