Now back to the void I go

I am still here, just not as active on my Oddworld blogs at this time. You guys can still send asks and whatnot to this blog, @spoocyshrub

or @enslaved-queenmother but it may take me a while to get to them.

The Noddaba's Fall Plot is also currently on a hiatus at this time.

[spoocyshrub]

*As the party began preparing and filling up supplies, Tekkno alerted Abe that he was coming with as well. He had his merchant pack ready, and let them know that he was chocked full of supplies if they needed it. Gabriel had finished saying his farewells to Gideon, Sam, and the clutch of eggs.

*As the party began to regroup. They could see an army of blue and green skin mudokons advancing on Allervale. Big Face approached the party to let them know that he has called upon help to watch over Allervale while he holds down the lines. Abe could make out a familiar giant meetle leading the army.

*Sunny Boy. It was Sam’s brother, Remmy. He was making his way to the village and dismounted once they arrived. Remmy began giving orders to the tribe for them to take positions to bolster the defences of the village. Once the orders were given and the army took positions, Remmy removed his headdress and smiled at Abe, Alf, and Toby.*

“I hear you three are off on some big major battle to save Oddworld. I say, you have my word that I’ll do whatever it takes to keep the village and your mother safe.”

*Roxx and Daisy also approached the party. Daisy had her shotgun in hand and Roxx adjusted his hat*

“We’re under orders from Oswald to keep you and Rayia safe. Do you want us to accompany y’all as well to take down that Sammdei bastard or shall we stay behind to help keep an eye on things? Whatever you say, goes.”

*Dokk stepped forward this time. He laid out a map for the party to look at. This was a bigger version of the map that Abe, Alf, and Toby used to figure out the lines that connected to soulstorm brewery, but this one covered all of Mudos. Dokk ran his finger down a train line that lead straight into the mountains on the border of the continent.*

“I am aware of a route we can get to via train. Sammdei uses this one to ship supplies to the citadel. This is the quickest way to get there, but even that will take a few days time to reach.”

*Elli approached next, carrying a box in her hands. She opens the box and takes out two leather backpacks similar to Abe’s.*

“Abe’s got a pack for storing supplies, but I don’t think Alf or Toby have one for themselves. I’ve been making these in my spare time. We will need supplies for the trip. I can get everyone set up with food, bedrolls, water, and bandages. I’m going with on this fight. Dokk, Tuff, and Leon also want to come as well.

While I’m getting the supplies gathered, You three and Gabriel might wanna say goodbye to your mom and Gideon. Once we are all packed and have said our goodbyes, we meet at the entrance to Allervale to go find a train to take up to the citadel.”

Upon the map being presented, Alf and Abe stepped forwards to examine the map, intensely watching to make sure they were up to speed with any information they were given. Abe nods, a finger over his lips in thought as Alf then commented about how they had a train stored somewhere, though mentioned also how it housed many of their race, so the train couldn’t be used as it’d be disrespectful to them all. Abe agreed. He felt Alf was right, fully agreeing with him.

As Elli spoke, Abe counted the items she spoke of on his paws, nodding several times to show understanding.

“Yo, check this out–! Abe, look at this; it looks a lot like yers!”

The younger brother chuckled softly. “It is. Now, you too can carry storage. It’ll be handy because I can only store so much in mine, so with the three of us, it’ll be less of a strain on mine.”

“Don’t worry, ya got us two now. Cheers, El. We’ll be sure to do what yer asked. If ya need anythin’, let us know, alright?”

“Hmm… Is this everything? If so, let’s sort any last minute things. I’ll go check in with Seraphim to make sure he’ll be strong enough to keep an eye on things here. He’s recovering well, but sadly, doesn’t have enough energy to exactly fight the Brood Father.”

“I’ll get Toby. Don’t ya worry, we’ll be with ya very soon, little bro.”

“Alright, let’s go ahead with the plan. Thank you everyone! Now, we’ll meet very shortly outside the village once we’re all done. Go do what you all need to do.”

I still remember when we all got into voice call together with friends to watch the film. Perhaps we should do that again sometime if folks in the server wanna see it again.

that or I subject everyone to the piss poor english dub -wheeze-

Dokk absolutely would pull some Dr. Livesey shit if you let him. And the guy LOVES to dress up.

Thank you so much critter for these blessed memes! I absolutely love Dokk Memes and you bet your ass Elli would join in for the lulz!

((Commission for @spoocyshrub! I had a lot of fun with this one, even if I was constantly getting distracted and it took me so long, I loved being able to combine two of my favorite things! Also, I know Dokk's cravat is different between the two, but if y'all watched Treasure Island 1988, you'd know that the animation tends to be inconsistent at times.))

Dokk & Elli belong to @spoocyshrub

Abe belongs to Oddworld Inhabitants ((and makes an absolutely ADORABLE Jim Hawkins, if I do say so, myself))

*Ansei was bouncing up and down with excitement as Lucas mentioned the sunflower field. He offered his hand appendage to the teen and smiled warmly.*

“I’d love to. I’d love to see whatever you want to show me. I’ve only been here a short time and already I want to learn everything I can!!!”

*Lebone has arrived to visit with Lucas, but he finds that the demigod is not alone. He is carrying a small child in his arms. Lebone sets the spider-like child on the ground and smiles as he leads them to Lucas.*

"Lucas? I wanted to introduce you to my son, Ansei. Ansei? This is Lucas."

*Ansei gives a very formal bow and a glowing smile to Lucas as they are introduced.*

"Father has spoken rather fondly of you, Lucas. I hope we can be the best of friends! Do you like music? or do you have a favorite story? I'd love to hear any stories you might have of this world! It's so colorful here!!!"

If anybody else were to be visited by the demigod, they'd be running with fright. But, not Lucas, no, for he knows this demigod. He knows the demigod is a good person deep down despite his "scary" appearance. So, really, there was no need to fear him when he had been nothing but kind to the boy.

Lebone's been kinder to him than most adults have been... Yet, he was not human. A shameful comparison, really.

After giving Lebone a warm smile with a wave, he blinked at the bundle of joy in his arms, quizzing over what he had. Soon, Lucas would meet who the tiny person was; his son. Lucas quickly realised the young child was as kind as his father was.

Taken back by the sudden politeness, he chuckled, cheeks flaring a soft pink as his anxiety began to bubble. He was half anxious despite there being nothing to fear over. The sudden string of questions made him a little reluctant to speak, though he was quick to bounce back.

"A-ah, well, I do like music. I... I like flowers best. Animals, too. Oh, oh, I must show you the sunflower field if you like flowers! I-I think it's a conversation starter? I think, aha... Ah..."

spoocyshrub​:

*Lebone was relieved that Abe listened to his and Gabriel’s concerns. When Abe mentioned Nerium and questioned what the best thing to do was, he tapped a claw against his chin. He was trying to think of something, until Afareet stepped forward next.*

“If Nerium wishes to come with on this battle, he will need someone to act as a voice of reason. The Brood Father tends to seek those out and exploit fears and traumas. Tries to turn you against your allies. There is one amongst us that can act as Nerium’s companion, and she may know more about the Brood Father than even Nerium does. We have spoken, and Persephone wishes to accompany the group if Nerium has to go.

Though some of us may need to stay behind to defend Allervale. I have a feeling that if Lebone’s concerns are true, he will strike out at the defending villages.” -Big Face stepped forward next. He stood proud, his arms behind his back.- “I know Gabriel and Lebone both want to take the fight to the Brood Father. One cannot stay behind while the other goes. So I volunteer to stay behind to lead the forces to defend Allervale and the Monsaic Lines. I will still be able to watch over everyone by firelight. In the event of emergency, I can bring you all back to safety. I will also make sure Queen Sam is taken care of, as well as the children.”

*Mother Odd began to approach Abe, the group parting to let the goddess through. She knelt down and placed the Bee amulet around Abe’s neck. She held the piece of amber in the palm of her hand and smiled to Abe.*

“You will need this. She will guide you through the citadel and will help you with harnessing your powers without straining yourself. Astara’s signet will help you deal with any shadow spirits within the citadel and help you free those that may be under his influence or that of the parasites. The brand on your back granted to you by the oracles can help you sneak around with invisibility, and you can use it to heal the sick. Afareet will stay behind to help Big Face defend the villages. I will be going in his stead.

I am not going to hide anymore. I am not going to let the torture of my world continue. I will fight if I must.”

“Okay, that settles everything, then.” Abe says with a smile, nodding. He was happy to take everything on board, grateful to everybody for assisting him through this. Knowing what he knew now, he’d be able to think more ahead, given he could account for everybody’s safety.

He’d have to ask Nerium if he felt up to coming with them. Though, no doubt it was going to be emotionally difficult on the poor thing, so it was a decision not to be taken lightly. Nerium was already fragile in terms of relationships, so another traumatic event might just send Nerium down further. Abe knew he wouldn’t harm anyone, but, Nerium was the type to lash out on himself. In a way, the Messiah was reluctant to allow him to join in case the Brood Father causes any more damage, however, it’d be unfair to take away his choice to go with them, so Abe had to accept regardless of how he felt. It didn’t mean his heart wasn’t heavy over it. He had his own memories over when Gabriel had been corrupted, so he understood exactly how Nerium was feeling right now.

Gratefully, Abe grins, accepting the amulet he once held on a journey that was so far ago now. To think, he had started out as a lowly slave, a nobody. Now, he was a leader, a chief of a village, a free Mudokon. He thanked his stars every day for having the chance to have a better life. It was one of the reasons why he felt everybody deserved the chance to be happy, to have a better life, especially when they had suffered in the past.

Nodding once more, he understands. “Okay. That’s also fine with me. As long as everybody is happy doing with what they want to do, then all is good with me. I’ll head out in a bit to ask Nerium, then see if Seraphim is alright to stay back. He’s going to be a massive help here, I know he is.”

With the amulet now around his neck, he softly whispered hello to the queen bee creature inside the amulet, thanking her for accompanying him once more. Then, he looks at everyone.

“Alright, any more points we must discuss before heading out?”

[Gideon] Hands him a Sunflower with a smile. These two are flower friends. Gideon is his flower friend now.

*Gideon grins as he receives the flower. In exchange, the young mudokon child offers Lucas a beautiful white flower native to Oddworld*

Upon Elli asking this, he’d nod, frowning. “It is. We’ve finally hit that moment where we’d need to finally deal with this. I just hope it goes smoothly, I really don’t want to lose anybody in this battle…”

The Mudokon blinks when his father steps forward, alongside Lebone. They both looked as if they had something important to speak about, so Abe allowed them to speak their mind. A long sigh as he processes what was just said, nodding. No, they both had a point, Abe was not going to ignore their valid reasons. Rather, he was glad they had stepped out with it, giving the Messiah a clearer vision to plan more carefully.

Abe starts to pace around, a finger against his lip. “I do not want to deny Nerium his right to come, but should we? If this is the case, Nerium might be conflicted. After all, he’s already had a hard time trying to come to terms with everything, so are we really doing the right thing by allowing him to join us? Or are we going to traumatise him further?”

“Abe,” Alf raises a paw, grabbing the Messiah’s attention. “If I may add; while that might be the case, he might know somethin’ about his father.”

Abe blinks, then narrows his eyes at Alf. “Are you saying…”

“I’m sayin’ he might know more than what we do. But, you might also be right about this. This’ll be him fightin’ his old man. Poor guy’s been so cut up about this entire thing.”

“Yeah… Hmm. Maybe we should ask him? What do we all think? Anybody got any other valid points they’d like to share?”

[spoocyshrub]

*The messenger birds spread throughout allervale. Everyone gathered to meet with Abe. Even Afareet and Mother Odd joined in the meeting. The gemstone of Abe’s ring began to glow bright, and the form of Astara stood ready to assist Abe with addressing the party.*

“So it’s finally time to take the fight to the Brood Father?” -Elli chuckled proudly- “So what’s the plan Abe?”

*The chatter suddenly began to die down as Lebone began to step forward alongside Gabriel. The two looked to each other and nodded before Lebone cleared his throat to speak.*

“Abe? I think it’s time I voiced my concerns. I am worried. Deeply. I fear that this may very well be a trap being set for us. That he is once again trying to toy with yours, Nerium’s and Seraphim’s kindness. I am worried that once we get up there, everything he’s told us about wanting to end this peacefully was just some farce. If we do go up there, we need to be prepared for the possibility that he has once again lied to us. That he may have found some exploit to Umbriel’s ability to see the truth. I am not convinced the Brood Father was telling us the truth.”

“I’m in agreement with Lebone.” -Gabriel let out a frustrated sigh- “I have a feeling in my own gut that he’s trying to set us up. We need to be prepared. Sammdei’s Citadel is the Brood Father’s playground. We are walking right into the most dangerous zone for us to fight him.”

{The Fall of Noddaba Plot: Finale}

*Time passes by in Allervale. Tekkno had made a full recovery from his encounter with Toni, Toni’s head had been made into a Trophy that warns Allervale of intruders that wish to seek harm on the people within, but has also started alerting the guards whenever he saw something suspicious. Surprisingly he has been helping out with keeping the village safe despite his overall hostility towards Alf and his family.

*Abe would soon be greeted to the green gemstone on his ring starting to glow vibrantly. Astara soon took form before Abe. She looked incredibly worried about something.*

“Abe? I must speak with you. We cannot hold off on this anymore. I have received word from my beloved. He struggles to keep that dark force that corrupted The Brood Father appeased. He called for our aid. The time to strike is upon us. We cannot wait any longer. If we do, Noddaba could be consumed a second time and we will lose any hope of settling this war peacefully.

Gather your allies. we must march on Noddaba’s Citadel soon.”

[from @spoocyshrub ]

Despite everything, their village seemed to had strengthened itself due to how everybody was getting stronger, not to mention all the allies who were suddenly appearing to assist the village. It touched Abe, who wished to repay every single ally when the war was over. He wasn't going to leave out a single soul, that was his promise. None of this would've been possible had none of them came to the rescue of his people.

Alf was doing well. Toby, too. The older brothers had been doing their own thing, but they never drifted. It was a good thing to see Toby discovering himself through his hobbies, learning more about himself as time passed. The eldest Lure triplet was so proud of his brothers, often saying it to them before giving them both a huge hug. Alf was becoming more affectionate, embracing his softer side with pride. The family life had seriously changed him for the better.

As Abe was inspecting the supplies, he happened to had seen the ring on his finger shine. Blinking, he held out his paw, watching the gentle being appearing before him known as Astara. She appeared concerned over something.

Hearing this, he frowned sadly, though understood. Poor Noddaba, he had been trying so hard to fight off the corruption within himself. Abe wasn't going to stand by, he'd be more than happy to assist however way he could.

Nodding, he grew determined.

"Understood. I will call for them immediately."

In a matter of moments, Abe would send out a messenger bird to each ally group, making sure they all carried the message of what Astara had just spoke of. It also told them to meet him in the large throne room, where they could all discuss what was to happen next.

Lebone: "It's hard to want to protect those that won't return basic kindness, isn't it?"

*Lebone sits himself down beside Lucas.*

"I felt that. deeply. I relate"

“You know what I’ve realised? How nobody likes a hero that even shows the slightest emotion. Yeah, it’s like suddenly, you’re a ‘wimp’, or a ‘crybaby’. You can’t even grieve when you’re a hero, either. No, because you’re not supposed to. Doesn’t matter if you were ten, or fourteen - no! It doesn’t matter.”

Please like/reblog this if you're willing to roleplay with villain characters without acting like the mun is a terrible person.

I writing evil or nearly evil characters more fun than writing good guys. I’m sick of feeling like people are going to judge me for my characters. I have a right to rp what I want and explain my characters actions, but not try to justify them. Because I know why a character acts a certain way doesn’t mean I think they are excused. The world isn’t black and white.

[spoocyshrub]

*Lebone had a smirk on his face. He looked so proud of himself. Toni, on the other hand, growled an “I hate all of you.” at them. The demigod extended an invitation for Alf to join him as he presents the head of Toni to Gabriel. The Demigod then made his way down the ladder of the tree house and approached Garbriel, who was standing in the center of the village. The Lure family patriarch was presented the head, Lebone holding Toni up by what remained of his head feathers. Gabriel began to pace back and forth.*

“Was it worth it, Toni? All this? If your father were still around today, he’d chase you out of his village himself. Look at you. The once proud princeling of a once great tribe, Reduced to a kick ball for my children and grandchildren’s pleasure.”

*Toni only grew a cold smirk. He was glaring the blue mudokon down.*

“Your lips might be tight with your stitches, but my gaze sees all. Do your sons know the extent of YOUR crimes? How many mudokon villages did you walk all over to get to where you are today? How many glukkon lives have you slain? How many mudokons did you sacrifice to accomplish that? To gain your mass fortune, your warlord title and reputation? What did you do to get close to Queen Sam?

Do they know the truth? That their father is a monster dressed as mudokon? That you did all that on your own BEFORE The Brood Father took complete control over you?”

*Toni began to chuckle mercilessly. Gabriel never buckled. He grabbed a spear from one of the guards and planted the hilt into the dirt. Gabriel took the head from Lebone and slammed the tip of the spear into the neck of Toni’s head. Gabriel let out a snort as Toni was now displayed as a trophy to all of Allervale.*

Frowning, Alf crossed his arms, leaning against the frame of the door. A glare is thrown at Toni. To hear what had happened to the demigod family made his blood boil, but knowing they were alright, did ease the urge to murder the guy.

But then came a pun. Alf’s eyes widened, trying not to laugh, but was failing by how his mouth was curving upwards on both sides. He bit his lip, trying to contain the howling laughter inside him right now. Odd, Lebone just made a killer pun that Abe would've no doubt have screamed at.

Satisfied, he nods, using only his eyes to examine as he trusted the demigod. Clearly, the pun was still affecting him badly.

“Bless you, you did-- Oh Odd, you did something-- The head of the house-- The head of the house--!”

Then came the howling laughter. Alf is clapping as he is unable to contain it, really loving Lebone’s pun perhaps a bit too much.

“Oh Odd, sorry man, I just... Agh, that was a good one. Need to remember that to piss Abe off with. If ya don’t mind me borrowin’ it.”

Heyo.

I'm sorry for being inactive but I assure you I'll answer the asks in the near future when I'll figure my mess out, but for now I'd like to show you the thing I made a while ago but wasn't showing to much people due to different concerns.

I am a big fan of virtual worlds concept for different reasons - starting from the endless possibilities of exploring the forgotten realms and ending at literally bringing your characters to life! So I decided oneday that I want to bring Ebb into Second Life (not VRchat because I don't quite like the fact that threre's no in-game editor).

So uh, I made it.

Yes, he is anthro because I need dem hands to throw around (and also because I am an irredimable furry). But here he is, the pre-fall-from-grace version, a bit grumpy and tired as well, but can you blame the guy for ending up in the most heavy duty guild?
